"Bricklayer for McCain!!" and other phony-baloney hypermasculine occupation signs
Did anybody catch the signs at the McCain rally today? "Bricklayer for McCain" with a stencilled brick pattern below it..."Carpenter for McCain!" etc.

Evidently the graphic arts department of McCain's PR firm dug through the Northern Virginia Vo-Tech syllabus or some such and picked out some manly "Joe" occupations to feature on their cheap looking signs.

And I have no doubt that the "bricklayer" was probably an investment banker and the "Welder" probably a baptist preacher, and so on, and so on.

8. I'm waiting for Joe Biden to come out and say
Edited on Sat Oct-18-08 05:44 PM by sweetladybug
"I'm Joe the Senator and I say if you are making less than $250,000.00 a year you are screwing yourself financial if you vote for McCain" I'm sick and tired of hearing McCain talk about Joe the Plummer!

10. I'd love to hear Biden's take on this! He'd come up with something good.
I am waiting for his next "noun, verb, 9/11!"

He's very good at it!

20. *Shrug* There are a lot of nonunion trades workers out there...
