Please Ignore Joe The Plumber
He's a one day story, and he will be forgotten by this weekend. The Dow may break through 8,000 by the end of the week. There are much larger stories than Joe The Plumber.

It's the people who work for selfish pricks like Joe who have no health care and want their kids to have decent schools (yeah Joe shit...it takes taxes to build schools) that outnumber the wealthy and will vote for Obama in masses

7. I think we have lots of "visitors" trying to keep the beast alive

8. Aw, but it's so fun deconstructing the myth.
So far we've found that this so-called 'average Joe':

-Isn't a licensed plumber
-Is related to Charles Keating
-Is a registered Republican who listens to Rush and Hannity
-Doesn't pay his taxes
-Doesn't pay his medical bills

McCain is trying to use this guy as a distraction, but this is turning into Palin: part deux.

9. Hmmmmm,
With the number of people who are members of DU, I think it's quite possible we can multi task, follow up on Joe AND pay attention to everything else going on. Some of us enjoy busting frauds, solving puzzles, etc. So, you focus on what interests you, and I'll do the same, ok?:hi:
