I think this is quite indicative...that's it really not what Obama thinks...but what all the "Joe Plumbers" think...Obama can only vote for himself once (unless ACORN has their way) :doh:

There are many "Joe Plumbers" in this country.

Not to mention all the many people who flock to this country to BE "Joe Plumber"

He has a soap box now :)

A massive soap box..

I was really suprised in the debate last night that Joe Plumber showed up...

When I saw the video (I posted it another thread can't remember which one it was now...there are just soooo many....:pray:)

I thought to myself...this needs to be seen...but it prolly won't be more than a blip in the blogosphere...

...Guess I was wrong...:)

This guy got his fifteen minutes of fame :) haha

I think this story will have a longer shelf life. It is Obama in his own words advocating "spreading the wealth around."


It is interesting that his half brother lives in a cardboard hut.

LOL! And LOADS of free publicity for that business he wants to open but wont be able to afford because of raised taxes.:p


It might even be worse than that...Everyone wants to talk to this guy now and that might give him some $$...but it will put him in even yet a higher tax bracket....:doh:

I turned on my tv a few secs ago...right there was Joe...he seems to be a bit overwhelmed with all the publicity he's getting...

...and now...Obama supporters are diggin' up dirt on Joe to blow his credibility...:o

The media is likening him to Kevin Costner in the film "Swing Vote"

I'm feelin' kinda bad for Joe at the mo...

I'd be freakin' out if my life was put under a microscope like that.

Indeed...this will be milked for every drop from every possible angle...

And that is the thing...it's not what Joe said that is "all that"...but how Obama replied to his question...

It is interesting that his half brother lives in a cardboard hut.
Generosity begins at home...


or was it courtesy?...I always get those two confused...:scratch:

Pretty soon he won't be known as "Joe the Plumber" but "Poor Joe"

This guy is being publically dissected...his personal life, his finances, his taxes, his licensing...or lack there of...

Well...this should certainly teach us a lesson about exercising our 1st Amendment rights...and asking questions that aren't scripted.

I wonder if Joe will be redacted?

I have to laugh at that. I'm getting ready to move, and in my new apartment (in San Marcos), I had to use the bathroom. When I flushed the toilet, it overflowed the bowl! I need Joe the Plumber! Well, I left a message with the maintenance hotline...

What really irks me is that I saw obama on tv talking to the crowd saying how many plumbers do you know make a qtr millon dollars? And the crowd like the sheep that they are were just laughing.

Joe said he was thinking about buying a COMPANY. If Joe had say only 2 other employees working with him making only $75.00 an hour and only working 5 hours a day each, they would be making the company $292,500.00 a year. Sure you have expenses that would bring that down, obama talks like 250 thou. is big money to companies. :doh:
