LOL!! Shuster and Bob Franken Making Fun of Joe The Plumber
They said JTP is no longer enjoying his 15 minutes of fame and that he has no license. Franken said that JTP probably does not believe in regulation and that is why he has no license...LOL!!
Franken also said that JTP is probably the same as Joe-6-pack!!! LOL!!

3. Not if the guy he works for is a licensed plumber.
He's like a helper, and assistant.

4. Apparently he is just a helper in a one-man plumbing co.
Wouldn't need a license. He said on CNN that he hoped to buy the company some day for 250K, not that he would have income yearly of 250. He's a liar and a McCain plant that got caught, IMO.

5. I don't understand how anyone can see as JTP as positive for McInsane
JTP has a lot of baggage and in this day and age the media just scrutinizes you to death. I guess in the Dem's case, that is a good thing!

6. I GUESS HE WILL REGRET HIS CELEBRITY! (tax liens & working w/o license)
According to public records, Mr. Wurzelbacher has been subject to two liens, each over $1,000, one of which — a personal tax lien — is still outstanding.

Moreover, for someone worried about his taxes, Wurzelbacher doesn't -- it appears - always pay them. A filing with the Lucas County Court of Common Pleas shows that he has had state tax liens filed against him, meaning he was either delinquent or didn't fully cover taxes that he owed.

A representative at the court explained that Wurzelbacher had not paid $1,182.98 of personal income tax. The state filed a lien on January 26, 2007, and the payment remains outstanding. But the court rep also cautioned that this all may have occurred without Wurzelbacher's knowledge.

10. Hmm...
Maybe Joe was spending too much on six packs to maintain his plumbing license and pay his taxes...
