Joe The Plumber Ambushed In Ohio
Opposing Plumbers Shout At Republican Darling
Sunday, November 2, 2008 – updated: 9:04 pm EST November 2, 2008


The man known to the country as Joe The Plumber was ambushed at a campaign event in Ohio Sunday.

WLWT in Cincinnati reported that Joe Wurzelbacher made a campaign appearance with U.S. Rep. Steve Chabot, R - Ohio, and a group of plumbers who support Chabot's opponent approached Wurzelbacher.

Video shows how one plumber lost his cool and started taunting Wurzelbacher.

"Hey, Joe, get a license. Joe, get a license! Joe, get a license! Pay your taxes. Pay your taxes," the man yelled as a couple dozen people looked on.

a Chabot supporter ended up shoving the yelling protester out of the way and the two had to be separated by others, WLWT reported.

No one was hurt or arrested.

Court documents show Wurzelbacher owes nearly $1,200 in back taxes. Wurzelbacher, who questioned Obama during a campaign stop on Sunday, acknowledged he doesn't have a plumber's license, saying he doesn't need one because he works for someone else. But a city building inspection official says Wurzelbacher still would need to be a licensed apprentice or journeyman to work in Toledo, and he's not.

3. This is funny out of this world

Gramps can sure pick em. :rofl:

[meisje]

4. That's plum crazy

[gratuitous]

5. "Ambushed"?

His lack of a license to pursue his publicly-announced profession and his unpaid taxes are both matters of public record. It's like saying you were ambushed for not voting or something (yes, the fact that you cast a ballot is a matter of public record; they don't, however, record who you voted for).

The most thundering sound in Joe's ears should be the clock ticking off his 15 minutes of fame.

6. pwned!

8. I want to see a follow-up with JTP in 4 years...

to see how he's doing after 4 years of President Obama. Wonder if he will have bought the business by then or not.

9. DING DING DING DING

and the TV News is covering that like a blanket. McCain is pathetic to pin his hopes on that schmuck. He's getting paid too big too quick and I bet there's a Jeffy Gannon underbelly on this plummer.

10. You mean Joe the Plumber is a male hooker?

:puke: No offense to legitimate sex workers.

[Richard Steele]

11. No, he's no hooker...he's just a WHORE.

Different.

[upi402]

13. no offense to whores, right?

Just sayin'...
:shrug:

[Richard Steele]

14. No offense to PROSTITUTES, if that's what you mean.

Prostitutes exchange personal services for money
in an entirely honest fashion.

"Whores" are another matter entirely.

[upi402]

18. Yep, but I meant he's worse than a whore

he's a betrayer of democracy.

[yodoobo]

12. Joe the Plumber = Born Loser

He didn't deserve to stand in Obama's shadow, let alone speak to him so disrespectfully.

The fact that mccain and failin have latched on to this lowlife scum for their campaign shows how desperate they are.

16. Is Joe the plumber the new Joey Buttafuoco?

[BrotherBuzz]

17. I've been in the trades for thirty-five years

It would be interesting to have a look at his hands. I'm not perfect, but I can identify the 'tell' in a number of trades, even some musicians. I have a hunch Joe the plumber spends more time sitting on bar stools then he does plying his trade. It's just my hunch. :shrug:

19. I'll bet that upset his little britches.

Poor Joe!

[stillcool]

20. McCain, Palin, and Joe the Plumber..

maybe they can get a gig in the Pocono's. They're all leeches sucking off each other. Could be quite the show.
