R.I.P. Joe, the Plumber
Edited on Sun Apr-12-09 02:09 PM by SoCalDem
Coming to a FoxNews outlet near you... Shawn/Sean/Shane, the Sailorman


I've heard his name as Shawn Murphy, or Sean/Shane Murphy, but whichever it is, he will be the "new and improved" version of Joe, the Plumber..mark my words..

A while ago on MSNBC, he was blurting out the typical "Yooooooesssssayyyy" stuff, while standing next to the guy who was holding the flag backwards.

He also said something to the effect of:

"We need a president..a president who's not afraid to take action....we need armed military escorts for ships, etc"..

3. Unfortunately...
there really are a lot of flaming Rwing nuts in the maritime industry.

They usually say this like, "We gotta stop these imports and exports!"

5. In that case, you'll love this:
the US Flag maritime industry is heavily subsidized by the US Government. Not as much as before but still heavy.

Edited on Sun Apr-12-09 02:45 PM by Politicalboi
I thought of this picture. And seeing it now I see a pen in Barbara's hand. WTF are they doing to the flags?
