1. Yes, Samuel the non-plumber has shown what an expert on history he is.
One wonders why he didn't choose it as a profession.

2. Years ago

Weird world we live in.

3. Please! No more Joe the Dumbass!
I want him to go away, his 15 minutes are up! Of course the RW nutbags have no concept of reality and think time measurements are some science gobble-dee-gook that violates the word of GAWD!

5. Joe The Plumber is a wise man.
And he must be very, very old! I don't even remember the things he's talking about. What year was it that the people took the politicians behind the woodshed?

:shrug:

6. Actually, one thing I DO remember from years ago.
Remember when Plumbers worked on "plumbing" and left politics to politicians?

8. Well, there were those plumbers in the early 1970s,
who liked to break into psychiatrists' offices and political headquarters...

9. That's true!
Of course I'm sure they would tell you they don't advocate anything other than taking people to the woodshed now and again.

7. Joe the plumber should be glad things aren't like they were "years ago."
He would have been forbidden to reproduce.

12. Joe.... Joe, Honeybun, Deary....
.... Just because years ago, when you were just a tyke, you got taken to the wood shed and smacked upside the head a lot doesn't mean that EVERYONE did.

Bless your pea pickin' heart.

13. WHAT freakin' years ago is this pinhead remembering-
Bobby Baker, the Tea-pot Dome, the Grant Administration, the Harding Administration and HOW many Nixon, Clinton, Reagan aides, cabinet members etc ended up in prison???? People have been viscously and physicaly beaten on floors of Congress by fellow Congressmen. Please - what years is ol' Joe jabbering about?

14. I see now the only way were going to get rid of this asshole is
to take him out back of a woodshed and hit him in the head with a shovel.:sarcasm:

Seriously, how much more of this idiot do we have to endure?

There are plenty of well meaning people on the left that work very hard for people and causes that will never get any air time of any kind outside of Current or Link TV. What has this moron ever done to warrant any kind of attention other than from the police?
