Joe the Plumber a homophobe. Really, are we surprised?

[Ishoutandscream2]

Today's right is beyond help. Joe's comments about not having his kids around "queers" was just another in a long list of why the Republican party is in dire need of a total face lift. I simply can't see them making any inroads in 2010 or 12 when "spokespeople" such as Joe, Rush, and the rest of their ilk continue to be the true voices of modern day Republicanism. But they will always have that 25 to 30 percent of "real Americans."

So, I guess I have to say to Joe - continue getting your face and your comments out there. It will only help our progressive causes in the long run.

1. Wurzelbacher/Palin- 2012

:popcorn:

THAT would be a treasure-trove of :wtf:ery

[Ishoutandscream2]

2. Oh, the comedy gold

The only thing that would be a detriment is to see countries around the world covering the election. Can you imagine the BBC and its coverage of such a ridiculous event such as this?

3. And don't you KNOW....

that they already have the hots for each other? They'd hook up the first chance they got!

4. Jeff Gannon can't hold up to this one for sure

[lunatica]

5. Gannon had the smarts to disappear and drop out of the public view

Palin and the Plumber think that the media keeps covering them because they're valuable. The truth is the media loves them because they're stupid, not in spite of it.

6. He has kids?

Poor things.

[Ishoutandscream2]

7. Yes he does. I believe he is a divorced dad

So much for the sanctity of marriage.

[sinkingfeeling]

8. Did gay marriage cause the divorce?

[Ishoutandscream2]

9. Oh, I'm sure

[spinbaby]

10. I feel for his children

Imagine how embarrassing it must be to have Joe the Plumber as a father.

11. I am honestly hopeful that they are heading for permanent

25 - 30% minority status.
