He can't do any worse than the tools already in place so let him have at it.

they want him, he will do they tell him to do. I dont think he will survive the upper rectal.

There is something about this guy that just doesnt resonate with me.

what a fucking joke

Not named Joe
Not a plumber
Not "getting ready" (exact quote) to buy his bosses business.
Going to benefit from Obama's tax and health plans and not McCain's
Would not vote for a black candidate if they were giving out free fifth wheel trailers and the other option was to burn alive.
Just another sucker cutting off his nose to spite his face.

Why not ! If your average "Soccer Mom" dipshit can be VP ?

These are called facts.
Please refrain from using them.
Thank you.

Actually, his name is Joe. Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher

Many people go by their middle name.

He works for Newell Plumbing and Heating Co. so I guess that makes him a plumber too.

he's not a licensed plumber just like i'm not a licensed Dr.

sure i do rectal exams on the weekend but i'm going to get in trouble when the state finds out i practice medicine without a license.....

Neo-cons like baddog make up excuses for everyone on their side don't they?

Anyways since republicans are so big on being "experienced" before being elected then what's make "Joe" experienced enough to be a Congressman?

And is related to Charles Keating.

I'm surprised byow much that is NOT being brought up. I thought the media was "liberal" you'd think they'd be all over it.

Joe the Plumber = Super Douche. He needs to pretend to fix toliets and go away. Talk about your 15 minutes of fame.

He is NOT even a liscensed plumber so I guess that makes him a fake plumber. Notice FOX is the network that is keeping him in the news...anything to keep from reporting how shitty Mccain runs his campaign.

So how is he different from the other republicans?

directfiesta...
So you are implying that the US is the only country that unqualified people run for political offices?

Are you sure you want to stand by that statement?

Beating a sitting congressman - not easy.
Doing it with his last name - Wow! Unless he can legally change his name to Joe the plumber and keep his 15 minutes going.

Side note- Has anyone else seen the stupid ass "I'm Joe the plumber" Spartacus style commercials Mccain's people have running? Just started catching them today.

ok, so the parts about his actual name and that he's "not officially" a plumber are debatable.

Could it be the fact that's he's a lie?

He's not a licensed plumber.
He doesn't pay his taxes.
Only makes 40k a year so his biggest gripe about Obama wouldn't even affect him.
Oh and last but not least his name isn't is fucking "Joe".

Now that I think about it.. He'd make a perfect Republican politician.

Hell maybe he can be Palin's VP in the next election..

the liberal media is a myth created by pundits.So they could play the everyone is against us theme.

hahaha usa medias

it figures you liberal commie bastards would give a REAL HARDWORKING AMERICAN like Joe The Plumber a hard way to go for wanting to SERVE his country.

:mad::mad::(:(

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Yep, he's just another Republitard.

Unless their middle name is "Hussein."

direct fiesta prefers focusing his biased views on a country other than his own.

it's easier that way and corresponds with the sheeple mentality of pointing fingers at america from outside.

oh canada!

'hockey mom' ;)

How uninformed and insensitive of me.
my bad:)

Joe said he wasn't required to have a license because his boss was licensed..
but:

His boss, Al Newell of Newell Plumbing and Heating Co. of Toledo, is a licensed plumbing contractor in Toledo, records show. But anyone working under Newell should have a journeyman’s plumbing license or an apprenticeship license, officials said.

And the county Wurzelbacher and Newell live in, Lucas County, requires plumbers to have licenses, but neither is licensed there, said Cheryl Schimming of Lucas County Building Regulations, which handles plumber licenses in parts of the county outside Toledo.


He's licensed in other counties, but not the one he's based in..
Could be a little problem for em' both if not fixed...

sounds like a typical politician already to me :winkwink:

lol now i know you're just a fake nick..you can't possibly be this lame.

If I recall he is a short time away from finishing his courses to get his license. His boss is retiring soon and he wanted Samuel Joe to take over the business. I think someone that does plumbing work day in and day out every day would likely be considered a "plumber". He works for a plumbing company, gets paid by a plumbing company, and makes his living doing... plumbing work. I guess that makes him Joe the Chef?

Jimmy Carter

Apprenticeships are 4 years, a Journeyman becomes one after serving 4 years as an apprenticeship. They then take a test and if they score high enough they become a Journeyman Plumber. So "Finishing his courses to get his license" is kinda bullshit. To get his apprentice license all that is required is that he be employed by a licensed contractor with direct supervision by a Journeyman and paying a few bucks.

In most counties and states sticky that is not how it works, to operate a Plumbing business one needs a Masters License which require 8 years experience, 4 as an apprentice and 4 as a Journeyman, that is I think figured on 2000 workings hours per year not just saying you have been doing it for 8 years. He could buy the company 100% and never carry a license at all in most places. He can of course hire a Licensed Master.

If you work for NASA that does not make you an Astronaut, working at a hospital does not make you a surgeon even though you could say you work in the medical field "while you emptied a bedpan". He could be Joe the book keeper or Joe the janitor or even Joe the expediter and still be doing "plumbing work" since it is all plumbing related. The fact is in most locations Joe could own the company and still not be a Plumber.

What you must know to be an Apprentice Plumber:

Shit runs downhill
Payday is Friday
DON'T chew your fingernails


Last, there is no comparing the license that an Electrician or a Plumber carries with a Doctor. The Electrician and Plumber are licensed to do the work in those fields, a Doctor on the other hand is only licensed to "Practice" medicine the same as an Attorney is licensed to "Practice" law.

Well I did heating and cooling from when I was old enough to ride along in the truck till I was in my early 20's for my dads company. Only licenses I ever got were certifications for freon use. Yet when I came to someones house they still said "The heating and cooling guy is here"

He works as a plumber. Democrats split hairs over the stupidest shit lol.

Regardless of all the current details, if he took over his bosses business and made the income his current boss makes, Obama said it flat out. Yes he would be taxed. He would have his "wealth spread around".

Single father of a 13 year old boy asks a question IN HIS OWN FRONT YARD (yup obviously they lured Obama there and he was led into the trap DOH Keatings are devious bastards grr), and the left tears the guy up for asking a question. Investigate the guys tax and personal records and spread them all over the world. WHY oh WHY do you think that they all got their panties in a twist going after a working plumber? Sad.

you must know plumber. lol

for me, the details of his plumbing license status have nothing to do with my opinion. To me he is just some dude that asked Obama a question. How asking a question qualifies some one to run for Congress, is a fucking joke to me.

hahahahahaha
