Biden now has joined the frenzy to cut down Joe the plumber.

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1008/14632.html

Obama has said, "How many plumbers do you know that make over $250,000?" Brilliant.

Biden and Obama might want to check with the small business association to learn what a small business is. Plumbing companies making up to $14 million are small businesses. But according to Biden and Obama there are no plumbing companies making over $250,000 and 98% of all small businesses make under $250,000.

Why do Biden and Obama think tearing down Joe the plumber somehow lifts them up? Imagine how many Joe the plumbers there are out there that find the way he is being treated by Biden and Obama offensive. Keep up your arrogance Biden and Obama, your true character is showing.

So the fact the guy doesn't actually have a license to be a plumber isn't fair to bring up even if it is the truth. Obama wasn't the one that brought him up in the debate it was McCain. This guy is going around spouting off on Obama's tax plan and he can't defend himself? If this guy want media attention which he

Yeah, just like the whole "Joe the Plumber" thing has been backfiring on Obama so far.

Good GRIEF! Neither Obama or Biden attacked this man personally.
