I couldn't make this stuff up if I were trying, as I've been accused of, to find things to attack him about! Would this make YOU change your mind and get up to go to a 9:00am meeting?
"In case you weren’t planning to attend CWG tomorrow morning, you might want to reconsider because Joe the Plumber will be joining us!"
That's what Kimberly Wallner, an aide to South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint, wrote in a message to her e-mail list.

That's right, Joe the Plumber, Campaigner, Writer, War Correspondent and whatever else the man named Joe whose name isn't really Joe and who isn't really a plumber has been in the past few weeks has now been the featured speaker for the Conservative Working Group. Reportedly Joe isn't a fan of the stimulus package.
Can Joe save the GOP? What's left for this amazing guy to do?

He is going to be sent to find Osama next because there is nothing left for him to do except run for president

Who am I to deny this man his 15 minutes, wait I mean 30, crap make that 45 minutes. How many minutes has it been now?
Just stick him on the list of people who should have gone away but haven't. Like Hannah Montana and the High School Musical. Hey wait, he might get a part in the next High School Musical.

Gee, I have no clue how many minutes it's been, just that it's TOO MANY!! Speaking of Hannah Montana and High School Musical, my 12 year old grandmother says they're both "annoying"...lol!
Hey, I've got it - Joe and Governor Blago can star in a new production of "the Odd Couple"! You must admit, they sure are odd enough alone but together - PRICELESS!

Wouldn't that be too far below his pay-grade now? There IS something left, though, since the stories about Joe becoming "Joe the Congressman" have surfaced again. Here's what he had to say about that:
""I don't know if the American public deserve me, but my son definitely deserves my time now."

I say, NO, we do NOT deserve him...lol!
Here's his advice to the GOP:
"It's not politically incorrect to say you're Republican or conservative," Joe said. "They need to dig their heels in and fight for what needs to be done."
And no reason to be subtle, he said, as long as folks inform themselves. "I don't believe there's two sides to every story. It's black and white," Wurzelbacher explained. "There's right and wrong."

Hey annie! Again, I am just about speachless! I have no idea
what this moron has to say that anyone would want to hear!
He obviously loves to be in the spotlight! I guess he just
never realized how much he did like it until that fateful
day there was that terrible mistake made and we were all
forced to see him and hear him and now we can't seem to get
away from him! He is a complete azzhole! Why can't somebody
just shut him up already?

Atleast he will be speaking to the choir, I am sure he will find alot of people that will eat up every word he says. I was hopping he would continue his war correspondent job, with a big head like that, and his loud mouth I am sure he wouldn't last long on a battle field. But, you know they guys is playing the GOP like violin, I say let him enjoy his GOP fame. You never know, maybe he will be running the GOP next year.

If you are saying that Joe is incompetent, I'd say he fits in with the incompetent press very well.

Ted, I'm afraid Joe is no longer a member of the media. I guess he felt he'd accomplished all he could accomplish in that field, so it was time to move on...lol! He's now a consultant and a keynote speaker for the GOP as well as an economic adviser and I guess a potential member of Congress. I guess he's a Joe of All Trades...hope JACK doesn't get mad!

Hi Annie,
What can I say? When it comes to the people who loved the last administration they will do any foolish thing to revive their floundering party.

This really is ridiculous. I fully expected him to fade away after the election. I've got to hand it to him, whoever his agent is, that guy should be commended. He turned a plumber with zero qualifications and a boring personality into all these things. I want that man as my agent.
