Joe the Plumber is not a Plumber
http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/10/16/joe-in-the-spotlight/?hp

"Turns out that “Joe the Plumber,” as he became nationally known when Senator John McCain made him a theme at Wednesday night’s third and final presidential debate, may run a plumbing business but he is not a licensed plumber. His full name is Samuel J. Wurzelbacher. And he owes a bit in back taxes.

The premise of his question to Mr. Obama about taxes may also be flawed, according to tax analysts."
