From the WSPD Website:
We are raising money for Samuel "Joe" Wurzelbacher (aka: Joe the Plumber) to Pay his back taxes of $1200.00. Joe The Plumber also needs a plumbers license so we are looking to raise $500.00 to help Joe get a Plumbers License.
I wouldn’t mind kicking in, but I’d kinda like Joe to at least pass a Plumbing test first....
The local Toledo area radio station has, as you can see, set up a site to help pay Joe the Plumber’s back taxes. People were looking for a way to help.
LOL!!!!!!
Joe owing the IRS just goes to show that taxes are already way too high.
And 0bama wants to make him pay even more.
Spread the wealth around... sounds more like spread the misery around to me!
Is this trustworthy? I had a check for $10.00 already written and ready to send until another FReeper told me that the address wasn’t correct.
The test is easy, plumbers only need to know four things.
1. Hot is on the left.
2. Cold is on the right.
3. Sh** flows downhill.
4. And most importantly, don’t bite your nails
I have a feeling they will get much more than $1200 as this gets widespread attention. Will Joe also receive everything OVER $1200?
He deserves it after what he’s suffered this week. A presidential candidate walks into his yard, so Joe asks a question. The candidate reveals his true Marxist nature and the media piles on the homeowner to cover for the object of their affectation.
Any shred of respect I may have had for “journalists” is gone after this and the treatment of Governor Palin. I will treat any of them I encounter with the utmost contempt.
Could be a scam. I want Joe to ask for help not a radio station asking for help.
Where have we heard that before? LOL
It says they’ll give anything over the 1700 goal to a local charity.
It’s one of the stations that plays Rush’s show. I don’t think it’s a scam.
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had my brother in law cite those to me. Actually, at least here in GA a master plumber license here requires a test that isn’t your average cup of tea.... “ But, they were funny, weren’t they dude?”
I’d pay his whole bill if he’d just punch O’bama in the face like I’d like to do.
Yes, it is trustworthy. This is our local talk radio station (WSPD)—Glenn, Rush, Brian Wilson (local), Sean, and Mark Levin. They just put it up today and announced it tonight.
I would double check before posting to make sure the “secure” symbol is somewhere on the page before donating, just in case some ACORN nut decides to reroute our donations.
You're expecting the guy to go out and ask for money? What guy worth his salt would ask for $$$ for himself? Not a scam, I live here, I know the station.
Thanks...I was hoping Joe would end up with ten grand or so by the week’s end. Some small comfort after his ordeal.
Yeah, they should give whatever they get to him. He deserves it after having the media savage his whole life.
