“The unlicensed pipe fitter known as Joe the Plumber is out with a book this month, just as the last seconds on his 15 minutes are slipping away. I have a question for Joe: Do you want me to fix your leaky toilet?”
What he is truly pissed about is that Joe could get a book published, but there is every likelihood the NYT snot couldn’t fix the toilet.
Besides, who ever heard of this schmuck? At least Joe had 15 minutes of fame. He is 15 minutes ahead of a catty NYT columnist.
I’d rather have Joe fix my toilet while I read his book. The NYT columnist is not qualified to do either job.
I wish Joe luck with his book. After the aggravation he’s been through, he should get a little compensation.
Ironically, if the media had left him alone or treated him fairly, he would not be in this position. Now they are jealous of the man they tried to bring down.
