Well, I thought this all along. Joe the Plumber was a Republican plant. Would stand to reason why McCain dropped his name 20 times in the last debate, and now had a campaign add---- using Joe the plumber. I am not stupid, I smell a RAT and his name is J oe the plumber.

Ok, it was debunked, partially, though.

While the media was digging dirt on Joe the plumber, they found an interesting story. The Media doesn't want you to know it, but they learned that Joe had a best friend in high school, who had a step father, that knew Obama. It seems this step father was an old dope peddler, and sold a lot of crack to Obama.

I am assuming you have a link to this slanderous assertion? Or it is just more of the smear campaign?

That's a bunch of hyperbole too. I have just seen 2 more of McCain's smeary adds, the one called "I'm joe the plumber" and the other about GUNS. Yep, GUNS, Obama wants to take your guns away. Like the police are going to go door to door and take everybody's gun. You don't think background checks are necessary befor someone can buy a gun? Let's just let EVERYONE havd a gun, Lugers and glocks, semi-automatics,etc. How many domestic violence calls have ended up with a family member getting shot and killed by a

Wow, what a sterling source you've come up with! It wouldn't really matter if Joe was a plant or not. BO's response is what makes this whole exchange interesting.

Couldn't agree more.


Who cares who asked the question? If Cindy McCain had asked the question and Obama had answered the same way, it change anything- the answer is what matters!


I think the NYTimes and the like- who have an entire link on their website devoted to Joe the Plumber, BTW- is intent on discrediting Joe, hoping Obama's slip will go away. OR maybe if we focus so much on Joe, everyone will forget what Obama said.


Joe the Plumber is an effective analogy- that's it. He's Everyman. Anyone here ever read that play in HS?
