48. I personally think that Joe is a tool who's going to regret getting himself involved in this
But a 'right wing plant'? That's just silly. And paranoid. And very, very, very unlikely.

11. Ok, I think we're going a bit far here...
I am somewhat reluctant to dig up dirt on a regular citizen in an attempt to run him into the ground. I don't think Joe-the-plumber played well last night and he's really a non-factor for Obama.

Yes, he's probably a conservative douche-bag, but he was open-minded enough to attend an Obama speech and actually had an interesting discussion with Barack about an issue important to him - even if he's wrong.

It's not his fault McLame decided to exploit him on a national stage.

If you agree to appear on national television, you're also putting yourself out there to be vetted.

18. He's not a regular citizen
He placed himself in the spotlight. Like it or not, he's now a "public figure."

Like the guy with the Obama monkey doll -- once you put yourself in the spotlight, you're fair game.

"Joe" has now given more press conferences than the Wasilla Weasel.

25. I don't think attending the rally was an act of open-mindedness -
I think he was clearly there as an agent provocateur, as the McCain campaign saw this as their big opening to decimate Obama on the taxes issue.

End result : EPIC FAIL!

Besides, it was McCain that decided to thrust him into the national spotlight...he was not dragged into it by anyone on the left.

32. He injected himself in the neighborhood canvassing
He left his own neighborhood and went to wherever Obama was canvassing, and thought he was going to play gotcha with a "tough question". So now we find out he doesn't own a plumbing business, doesn't have a license, isn't registered to vote, and is a relative of Charles Keating. Don't ridicule what he does for a living, but if he isn't telling the truth about who he is, that's important for people to know.

12. Joe was vetted about as thoroughly as Sarah
If anyone doesn't realize that a dysfunctional campaign is a clear indicator of dysfunctional leadership, they are probably in Bush's die hard ten percent. In the Navy, we referred to them as the "ten percent who never get the word."

17. We need verification on this one - this would be the gift

I saw this liar on cable this morning. All cocky and mean.

He sounded like a tool ,looked like a tool and we are real close to proving he is a tool!

Because this is one of those things Repukes are using to pull voters names off the rolls.

50. If that is the case - "Lawrence" vice "Samuel" Wurzelbacher, then his voter registration
is still in question? That is if we buy into the Plumbing license of "this character" under the name of Lawrence Wurzelbacher EXPIRING in 2002, we have no data regarding his voting record?
