Questions About Plumber-butt Joe
0 comments
Man, there's so much to this whole story that doesn't pass the smell test.
This story claims Joe Wurzelbacher—who is now thoroughly enjoying his fifteen minutes of fame with everyone digging into him, and trying to find out, "Who is Joe the Plumber?"—spent a few years living up in Alaska.
Hmmmmmm...
One person interviewed about Joe's time in Alaska offers an assumption that Wurzelbacher never met Governor Sarah Palin. But the article never mentions Todd Palin. Did they ever meet up? They do sound like a pair who'd do that. Plus, Todd Palin's anti-American AIP activities sound tailor-made for someone like Wurzelbacher.
Based on no clear fact, granted, but just from an instinct you pick up living in Gotham City, he's smelling like a plant.And while Wurzelbacher's pontificating is all merely scatter shot, wing-nut, talk radio points, still at one juncture he went into detail about not wanting Social Security. Bad idea; don't need it, we can take care of our own, etc., etc.
Fine, dude. I'll take yours, if you don't want it.
Especially, if you want to wash your hands of it.
