Finding things that make the press crazy... Priceless.
They do not REPORT about the war. They LIE about what is happening with the war. The press has not told the truth about anything to do with one of our wars since WWII. They lie Joe. Get it? End of subject.
Keep you head down and watch your back, Joe. Prayer.
Hey rooters, his middle name is Joesph! So Joe The Plumber is appropriate!!
Wha....i thought he was just a plumber.....??
They are just jealous that plumbers can do their job, meanwhile they MSM cant do any pluming therefore are totally useless and easily replaceable.
It is spelled Joseph!
I agree with Joe. The liberal MSM’s pro-terrorist agenda and anti-American/Israel hatred makes it impossible for them to do their job. The boys and girls in the MSM need to stay away from war zones and limit their “reporting” to attacks on the two Palin infants and maybe the Governor’s wardrobe. The buffoons in the MSM are clueless when it comes to wars and the military. Total morons.
Let me get this right. He is calling for press censorship and people here are actually praising him?...so much for suspicion of big government.
???
That statement is not even IN the article.
But if it was, Joe would be referring to anyone who reports dishonestly on war should not be reporting on war
Unfortunately that includes almost everyone calling themselves a “journalist” these days
I imagine Joe would support the idea of a “fair and balanced,” objective press corps that actually delivers the news, but that’s not what we have. Does the press have a right to access and disclose military secrets? I don’t think so.
When you think about it, it probably takes a lot more skill, knowledge and talent to be a good plumber than a good journalist.

...he then continued that plumbers shouldn’t be fixing toilets in strangers’ homes.
So now we’re defending MSM, as long as they bring blood and gore to our screens? No, thanks.
THat depends. Some plumbers only clean drains. Some plumbers do natural gas piping and wiring.
And plumbers that report from israel? Should that be part of their job description?
