Poor Joe the Plumber. Might he be involved in voter fraud? (new insight on his registration)
It's no wonder Joe is pulling back, re-evaluating whether he wants to keep giving interviews to protect his young son. Such a dad, eh?

Or maybe he's concerned that, now that it has come out he doesn't have a plumber license, that it might also come out that his primary vote was cast in the wrong precinct. At first I thought he wasn't registered because nothing came up under his name (Samuel J. Wurzelbacher), but it turned out the Board of Elections made a mistake and registered him under the name Worzelbacher. BUT...according to property records, he got the house where he lives in 2005 -- and nobody by the name Worzelbacher living at his address is registered to vote. Sooo, is his registration at another address? Must be. And is that address in the precinct where he voted? We don't know that. Yet. Wouldn't it be ironic if McCain's everyman hero committed voter fraud? I hear this is being vigorously investigated so stay tuned.

1. He seemed to be pissed off last night whilst being interviewed by ABC after the debacle...er, debate
I was wondering why, but now I think that he may have gotten in over his head.

4. This guy says that voters should be informed before they vote
Fine with me. But he is the poster child of the uninformed voter.

He does not earn $250 000 and he won't earn that much if he buys a business for $250 000.

In fact he would get a TAX CUT under Obama plan in either case.

This whining about being punished with higher taxes could be applied to everyone who is in a higher tax band than others.
Which means he thinks the only way to go is a flat tax something that most Americans oppose -- for good reason.

The reason why he can earn $250 000 is not that he worked harder than those who earn $50 000. If he wants to make that argument he should say 95% of Americans are lazier than him. Good luck with that, too.

5. Would Joe the Plumber need a loan to purchase his business?
Ask him if the Bush/McCain economic meltdown effect his prospect of getting a loan for the purchase of this business.

Maybe he should be asked how much the Bush/McCain unemployment creation program encouraging jobs to be moved outside the country has depleted the income of his customer base for his hopefully soon to be acquired company?
Ask him if the fact that fewer homes being built, bought, sold, or rehabbed due to this Bush/McCain economy is good for his hopefully soon to be acquired business?

This guy, if any part of what I believe is a made up fantasy about who he is and what he plans for his future is true, he should be trying to convince all of his neighbors to vote Obama.

His Obama tax cuts will afford him more money for the purchase of his business or other obkigations, The jobs created by Obama's policies will help his neighbors afford his services.

Many of Obama's policies will benefit him a lot more than do me.

How stupid do you really have to be to be a republican?
