Maybe McCain should have chosen Joe for VP. He knows as much about civics as Sarah Palin.

Wink Re: Fox News Rips Into Joe the (fake) Plumber

Kudos to this FOX reporter!

Poor Joe. It is hard not to feel sorry for the guy. He is obviously just a regular guy who, in his own words, knows "just enough to be dangerous. With the spotlight cast upon him, he has developed a serious case of hoof in mouth disease.

He's in over his head that's for sure but I suspect a book or movie deal is in his future..

You are all correct it's just so WRONG to tell people to research it themselves and make their own opinion.
THAT is the statement that JOE makes.

ACTIONS and things said when NOT campaigning for "middle America" are a much better insight to a persons REAL beliefs.

If you DON"T think Obama tells flat out lies (and I'm not trying to claim "everything he says is a lie") then YOU are the fool.

The tape? You mean the one that connects Obama to the same Palestinian "sympathizer" McCain gave half a million dollars to?
Or the one that if you play it backwards it says,
""Joe the Plumber is really Bush the bumbler." ???

Puh-leese! Joe made an idiotic statement about an Obama presidency meaning the end of Israel. Then he proves himself clueless when asked to explain why he believes that. So he tries to bluff by saying people should research it for themselves. Who falls for crap like that?

That is ONE of the statements that Joe makes.
But just out of curiousity, considering you like that statement so much, can we count on you to keep quiet and let us research things ourselves and reach our own conclusions?


Without sarcasm, OBVIOUSLY the real reason people think Joe was being a fool is because of his "Obama will destroy Israel" idiocy.
I seriously wish we could get all the people who make these absurd claims together, tattoo the claims on their body, and then four years from now make them LOOK at their claims and make them THINK about it.

The mindless Obama bashing just gets stupid.

Okay.
Like the Fox reporter asked Joe, WHAT ACTIONS do you think show Obama is going to bring about the destruction of Israel???

Talk about trying to change the subject...
I think both McCain and Obama tell lies.
But that ain't the issue here...

Joe did NOT make the statement.....he just agreed to it and then challenged YOU to check out the facts.........Therefore YOU attack HIM and NEVER check out the facts.

Recheck in a little more detail the "facts" of this "donation" John Mccain personally gave to this "Palestinian Sympathizer".........another deflection of the issue by Obama crazed supporters.

FREE THE TAPE!

What are you afraid is on the tape that you shouldn't see? It was just a "good luck at the new University" party. But then I guess it might just actually tie together EVERYTHING that is being said about Barack and since you are SO INVESTED in his victory you would be forced to close your eyes and ears and deny deny deny as Barack does.


Joe the plumber is just a private citizen and if there were more "Great Americans" with his attitude the whole country would benefit greatly.
