Joe the Plumber - how sad!

[Robinrs]

Why won't Joe the plumber just go away. No one cares about what he has to say. He continues to put himself out there. He was just at a conservative convention last week as a guest speaker. Why would they even want to be associated with him? Surely there are better, more qualified conservatives to speak? Aren't there? Maybe not...

Come on, he's a HERO! I'm sure there are at LEAST 15 people on the DIS who believe he is.....

I didn't realize he was an Obama cabinet nominee.

So THAT's why McCain kept draging him up on stage!

At CPAC he said he was thinking about running for Congess.

Stop it! You're killing me!

Joe the Plumber? More like Joe the Keating Family Operative

I guess it's no wonder John McCain was so happy to use "Joe the Plumber" as a debate prop last night -- he's a partisan Republican who also happens to be a member of McCain's old friends, the Keating family.

From Martin Eisenstadt:

Turns out that Joe Wurzelbacher from the Toledo event is a close relative of Robert Wurzelbacher of Milford, Ohio. Who’s Robert Wurzelbacher? Only Charles Keating’s son-in-law and the former senior vice president of American Continental, the parent company of the infamous Lincoln Savings and Loan. The now retired elder Wurzelbacher is also a major contributor to Republican causes giving well over $10,000 in the last few years.

Now I guess we know why Joe is telling the press that Obama is a "socialist" and that the Obama tax plan "infuriated" him. After all, it would hit families like the Keatings and their minions the hardest.

Not to mention that Obama's economic-recovery plan would put the crimps on influence peddlers like McCain's old friends, the Keating Five.

But he sure made for a good one-day story.

Who wouldn't want to run against him?
