I'm proud of my fellow Ohioan, Joe the Plumber.

His current income made him eligible for a tax break under Obama's plan.

That would be under CANDIDATE obama's PROPOSAL which apparently can't even be found on obama's website anymore. When obama becomes President, we will find that just like clinton, CANDIDATE obama's plans had to be changed to reflect the new reality he faces as President, and Joe the Plumber will be eligible for a heft tax INCREASE.

Report: "Records search on Joe the Plumber improper"

TOLEDO, Ohio – An agency director improperly used state computers to find personal information on "Joe the Plumber," a government watchdog said in a report released Thursday.

Gov. Ted Strickland suspended the agency director, Helen Jones-Kelley, for a month without pay after reviewing the findings. He rejected a request to fire her.

Not firing her and others involved is culpable. This is nothing less than criminal.
