When John McCain began mentioning Joe the plumber at the last debate (21 times!), he has been discussed ad nauseum at every stump speech, news show, etc...
McCain and Palin have said that the exchange between Barack Obama and Joe Wurzelbacher as angry and rude... So let's watch the full conversation and make up your own mind.
In my opinion, it's a very calm discussion...AND it doesn't sound like Socialism to me... the tax system is the tax system that has been in place for many administrations and it's always been a scaled system.
And now let's look at the facts about Joe the plumber:
- Joe is not a licensed plumber (it's not necessary if you work for a plumbing company)
- The company that Joe wants to buy would get a tax cut under Obama's plan because it made MUCH less than $250k
- Joe himself made under $50k last year which would also give him a tax break under Obama's plan
- Joe is a registered Republican and has made a donation to McCain's campaign
So it looks like Joe was either a McCain plant (if you are REALLY paranoid) or just a dork who wanted to be in the public light and get his 15 minutes.... time's up, Joe!

Nice article. I saw this video , its good to watch.Joe the unlicensed plumber is seeking to take advantage of people who don't know that they DON'T NEED a converter box because they already have cable or a dish, by selling them something they don't need!
