Joe the Plumber is biting the hand that vaulted him into national prominence.

"I don’t owe him s—. He really screwed my life up, is how I look at it," Joe -- aka Samuel Wurzelbacher -- said of John McCain in an interview with Pennsylvania public radio correspondent Scott Detrow.

"McCain was trying to use me. I happened to be the face of middle Americans. It was a ploy." ::::

He then reportedly went on to announce that his enmity towards the 2008 GOP presidential candidate is so high that he no longer backs Sarah Palin -- because she is supporting the Arizona Republican’s re-election bid.

Love that he hates McCain, but that's pretty misguided that he's bashing Sarah. Then again, I have been wondering why Sarah is backing McCain in Arizona other than the obvious that he kick-started her national career.

Hmmm..Good ol Joe had no issue when Sarah ran with McCain for Vice President..and Joe had no problem CAMPAIGNING for McCain during the 2008 election. Hey Joe, follow Kato Kaelin’s path, even HE knows when his 15 minutes of fame ended a long time ago

McCain is scum. Sarah looks like a fool supporting McCain and Cheney looks like a fool supporting gays in the military and killing don’t ask don’t tell. They are all hypocrites.

Sarah and Cheney are making Mitt look pretty good. (runs away).

Hard to argue with his reasoning; and yes, I am a Palin supporter.

So Joe does not blame Axelrod, Obama , and the Obama state media that smeared and astroturfed him and had his state records pulled illegally ?

Joe makes NO sense here.

Joe never asked for a minute of this. Although I assume he did cash in on it. He could have refused all of it. But then again, the dems tried to destroy him.

It's kind of a mess. He's right about McCain, wrong about Sarah. But then again, Sarah is wrong about McCain. Very messy.

He also offered the Obama adminstration a compliment, of sorts, Detrow reports. "I think his ideology is un-American, but he’s one of the more honest politicians. At least he told us what he wanted to do."

And what might that be, Joe?

“Joe the Plumber is biting the hand that vaulted him into national prominence.”

Ummm, no.

Joe was “vaulted into national prominence” by simply asking the race Marxist a simple, solid, common sense question.

Well, duh, but at least unlike the RATs he wasn't out to DESTROY you.

Enough with the victim stuff. He didn’t have to run all over the country making appearances. I understand he was thrust into the limelight but he is a grown damn man. If you don’t want the attention keep your mouth shut. (this is definitely NOT an endorsement of McCain either). Just Jeeze!
