It appears that the vicious attacks on Joe the Plumber by the Dems
(particularly by Joe "The Senator" Biden) is beginning to backfire.

It matters not if he is licensed or not, owes back taxes or not or is
a single parent. People can understand that and the majority of the
public can relate much easier to Joe the Plumber than they can to his
critics and media propaganda.

Gee, the Dems may even lose some close swing states by annoying too
many people.


Obama should install a remotely controlled muzzle on Biden.

What evidence are you offering that shows what you claim?

Joe is not the guy's real first name.


Irrelevant.

He's not a licensed plumber.


According to the law the doesn't need to have a license. His employer is
supposed to have a license.

His boss is not a licensed plumber.


Then go after the boss and not the employee who did nothing wrong.

Therefore, the business is running illegally.


Then go after the business owner and not the employees.


Further, the business *grossed* about $100,000 a year and "Joe" earned
about $40,000 a year. He would have benefited from Obama's tax play.


Joe the Plumber is thinking about 10 and 20 years out, not about
immediate satisfaction or gratification. The country could use a couple
of million Joe the Plumbers.

The truth shall set you free.


Please keep that in mind when talking about your own accomplishments.

The problem here is that the McCain campaign did not bother to
vet...the same problem it has with Ms. Palin.


The guy talked to Obama when Obama was walking down the street. It was
an Obama event. You and Hillary need to get a room so that you can talk
about the VRWC.



If you are going to tout someone 15 or so times as McCain did, you ought
to make sure of his bona fides.

It is the responsibility of the individual to assure he is working
according to the laws. Ignorance of the law is not an excuse in this
instance. I'll bet both Sam and his boss knew the licensing requirements.

I appreciate your lack of appreciation for those pieces of paper that
say you have accomplished something.
