Good luck Joe. But take note, no matter how skilled your writing, no matter how big a scoop you might get, no matter what you do, you will be sneered at, ridiculed, subjected to all sorts of pratfalls, because you’re daring to do the job of Liberal Elitist Snobs. And they still have it in for you.

No offense to Joe or Sam or whatever the hell his name is, but he’s as qualified to go over there as Sean Penn. Now, granted, we are suffering from an acute lack of professional reporters so there probably aren’t any other suitable candidates.

I think it is a brilliant marketing stroke by pjtv.com though!

Why do you need to be "qualified" to report a story?

Sean Penn is a putz. It's as simple as that. "Unqualified" amateur bloggers and freelance "journalists" are doing a better job than the "qualified" elitist jacka** propagandists from the MSM.

For a change here is someone not shilling for the palis.

I'll take Wurzelbacher over any of the mediot hacks any day.

He will probably be the ONLY reporter there. Actually reporting the facts is rare. Most are editoralizers.

Did you see his son and his Dad on Huckabee with him? I would guess Grandad will take care of the youngster.

With all of the LIES, DISTORTIONS and other DECEPTIONS coming out of Reuters, Green Helmet Boy, , Al-Jazeera, Al-CNN and the rest of the nasty propagandists in the MSM, the world needs an army of honest people to counter the falsifications and bullsh!t.

Remember the FALSIFIED PHOTOS from REUTERS?

Remember Green Helmet guy?

These creeps are still over there, and they are LYING SHAMELESSLY about what's really going on in the middle east.

Joe should run for President.

He has more common sense in one finger than McCain and Obama had in both their bodies.

He’s more qualified to be a war correspondant than Obama is to be President or “Sweet” Caoliine is to be a U.S. Senator.

I'm not so sure about that. Journalism, or real reporting, might be something like writing, or singing, or acting, which has a big "natural" component to it. We'll just to wait and see. Joe might have a knack for it.

He is quick with thought and does add color when he expresses an opinion, so I think he will be just fine.
