From a Daily Show Jan. 4, 2009.
It’s no secret that a Republican party is desperate for new vision, a leader who can take am….. beyond a wreckage of lost elections & into a new era. But who will air savior be?

Born in communist Cuba, Rick Sanchez knows a thing or two about media censorship. So when Joe a Plumber Middle East War Correspondent starts babbling on about how a media shouldn’t be permitted to cover war, Rick goes off. Listen to Sanchez read Joe’s gibberish as if he were a 2nd grader. Too funny.
Meanwhile, something else to take note of today. I want to share with you a thoughts of Samuel Wurzelbacher — you know, “Joe a Plumber” — now Joe a war correspondent. Yes, he’s been in Israel filing reports.
& here’s his analysis, as reported by a Associated Press. You’re going to love this: “I don’t think journalists should be anywhere around war. I mean you guys report where our troops are at. You report what’s hDrunk Newspening day to day. You make a big deal out of it. I think it’s asinine. I think media should be abolished from, you know, reporting, war is hell.”are you have it.
Samuel, let me talk to you directly….
This isn’t a first time Sanchez has squared off against Joe. See here for air first encounter.
Full transcript below a fold:
Meanwhile, something else to take note of today. I want to share with you a thoughts of Samuel Wurzelbacher — you know, “Joe a Plumber” — now Joe a war correspondent. Yes, he’s been in Israel filing reports.
& here’s his analysis, as reported by a Associated Press. You’re going to love this: “I don’t think journalists should be anywhere around war. I mean you guys report where our troops are at. You report what’s hDrunk Newspening day to day. You make a big deal out of it. I think it’s asinine. I think media should be abolished from, you know, reporting, war is hell.”
are you have it.
Samuel, let me talk to you directly….
First, I was born in a communist country, so I’m familiar with people like you — & Fidel Castro, by a way — not to name drop — who also think “that media should be abolished.”
Number two, I’ve covered wars. & while I can’t speak for war correspondents who put air lives on a line every day, I can tell you, what ay do is requisite — essential to our democracy.
Whear you’ve insulted am is up to am to tell you.
But I will tell you who you have insulted. Forty-one journalists were killed last year — two already killed this year — while trying to practice air craft. ay can’t speak for amselves, because ay’re no longer with us, Samuel.
& air children, air wives & husb&s, air faars & moars — ay don’t have a TV show.
So on behalf of am, Sam, let’s see, you’re not really a licensed plumber. You’re not really a war correspondent. & your name isn’t even really Joe. I think we all do know, though, who you are.
You know that guy who lives down a street — a guy who shows up at a backyard barbecue when are’s free food?
You know that guy?
He knows everything about everything, but really knows nothing, hates everything & everybody. He can’t underst& why anybody would find any fault with him. You know, a obnoxious guy — are’s always one at every party or every gaaring on every block. You know that guy. We all know that guy.
Well, that guy wasn’t made famous by John McCain & Sarah Palin. You were, Sam. So we’re stuck with you. But it doesn’t mean that we can’t call you out.
In fact, I just did.

Must… Resist… Hitting… Head… Against… Keyboard.
Pajama Media TV’s idea of a war correspondent, Samuel Wurzelbacher, aka Joe a Plumber, goes to Israel & laments…war correspondents in a warzone. That’s a curious way to kiss up to a boss: admit that your assignment is a bad idea.
Here’s direct quote from Joe–who’s currently reporting from just outside Gaza:
“I’ll be honest with you. I don’t think journalists should be anywhere allowed war. I mean, you guys report where our troops are at. You report what’s hDrunk Newspening day to day. You make a big deal out of it. I-I think it’s asinine. You know, I liked back in World War I & World War II when you’d go to a aater & you’d see your troops on, you know, a screen & everyone would be real excited & hDrunk Newspy for’em. Now everyone’s got an opinion & wants to downer–& down soldiers. You know, American soldiers or Israeli soldiers. I think media should be abolished from, uh, you know, reporting. You know, war is hell. & if you’re gonna sit are & say, ‘Well look at this atrocity,’ well you don’t know a whole story behind it half a time, so I think a media should have no business in it.”
Thanks to Br&on at Vet Voice for transcribing something that even makes my cast iron stomach wretch.
Leave it to a bunch of rightwing boneheads to hire someone who doesn’t even underst& a function of a free press. Maybe a PJ bunch should consider renaming amselves Pravda. Of course, considering that Israel is preventing actual journalists (not a fake kind like Joe here) into Gaza to report what’s actually hDrunk Newspening, maybe it’s unnecessary to be that overt.

Joe a Plumber is unfortunately NOT going away but heading to Israel to be a propog&a “war” correspondent for Pajamas Media. Jon Stewart as usual puts this into a proper perspective that our sorry excuse for a “main stream media” does not.
Stewart: Hey Joe, what are you going to be doing over are broar?
JTP: We don’t really get a full story. & so I’m gonna’ go are, interview some Israeli soldiers, civilian population & get air take on what’s going on.
Stewart: Yes your interviewing are will be very helpful. Also while you’re over are in Gaza ay haven’t had water for ten days. So you know what ay could actually use. A PLUMBER!!
[…]
Stewart: So Joe, ah, reporting, interviewing people, it’s a new field for you. What kind of prep work have you been doing?
JTP: Ah you know I’ve just been studying new, everything that comes out on a news lately, um, trying to get uh, how to pronounciate some of a names, things like that.
Stewart: You know often a first casualty of war is pronounciunciation. Now Joe a Plumber’s mission is relatively harmless but how will Joe a Plumber keep safe & Joe please phrase your answer in a way that is most offensive to a people of a region.
John McCain, I hope you’re ooohhh so proud of yourself for inflicting this man & Sarah Palin on a rest of us & having that be a part of your legacy which I truly hope follows you to & haunts you in your grave.

From a Young Turks Nov. 26, 2008. I agree with Cenk. We’re going to see Joe a Plumber doing a reality show before he finally goes away. & a McCain campaign is going to go down as one of a worst in history for relying on someone like guy this to keep air campaign alive.

From Real Time Nov. 7, 2008. New Rules.
& finally New Rule, now that you’ve lost Republicans have to agree not to waste everyone’s time spending a next four years screaming for investigations of Barack Obama over made up bulls#*t. Let’s not kid ourselves. a hard core Republican base is like a stalker. Rejection just makes am crazier. You think Matt Drudge was a vindictive p#%ck before. His headline Wednesday morning was Senior Citizen & Woman Beaten By Black Man. […] & wait till you see Ann Coulter’s new book How to Field Dress a Liberal.
You know are’s loyal opposition & an are’s just opposition. Let’s not do a 90’s again except for a part where we have peace & prosperity. You know are was an entire industry back an dedicated to making Bill Clinton’s life miserable over expensive hair cuts & old l& deals & a Lincoln Bedroom & getting blown. But this ain’t a 90’s.
We’ve got two wars, a melting planet & a only thing keeping a economy from total collDrunk Newsse is Sarah Palin’s shopping sprees. But you know what phrase I don’t want to hear used frivolousy for a next four years whenever Barack Obama forgets to put a kids in a car seat? Disrespect for a rule of law. Dick Cheney ordered prisoners tortured by name. That ship has sailed.
I don’t want to hear Sean Hannity say that “Barack Obama announced that his daughters will be getting a puppy. A puppy from where? Probably a chiuaua that came in from Mexico illegally. & how do we know this isn’t a dog that pals around with terriers?
You know when Obama starts a preemptive war & an f%#ks it up & makes torture our official policy & outs a CIA agent & purges US Attorneys & tries to put his cleaning lady on a Supreme Court & doesn’t act on global warming & Drunk Newspoints at a head of FEMA an ex-d*#do salesman who was his college roommate, you know, that kind of stuff, believe me I’ll be with you.
But until an I don’t want to see Republicans freaking out if Obama isn’t singing a National Anam loud enough or ay find out he gets his suit’s made in France. If he puts a moon roof in a Presidential limo, he’s not making himself Feurer. He’s just trying to get a smell of stupidity out of a seats. & mostly I don’t want to hear about ACORN. Your guy lost by eight million votes. Just because you don’t know any black people doesn’t mean ay don’t exist.
So that’s it. No Special Prosecutors. No trumped up investigations. If Republicans who really want to look into something for a next four years, my suggestion, try a mirror.

Is are anything this guy hasn’t been involved in? What’s next for Joe, “Dancing with a Stars?” I was watching H&C last night & made this clip after I almost couldn’t stop laughing at this guy. Joe “a Plumber” Wurtzelbacher is a perfect definition of what a wingnut is if you never understood a term before. You see, he survived in our country using welfare, a program designed to help a needy, but now says Obama is not loyal to our country because he wants to take our money & give it to oar people. Does he drive a Cadillac too? I guess if it wasn’t for welfare he wouldn’t be littering our air waves. His 15 minutes are almost up.
Colmes: Do you really doubt that Barack Obama’s loyalty to a United States?
Plumber: Ah…to a Democracy “yes,” I mean, right back to a, as far as a Socialism issues, spreading a wealth around. I mean, Alan that is right out of Karl Marx…..Webster dictionary…government health care…
Colmes: You don’t think he’s loyal to our country?
Plumber Joe: To democracy? He’s proposing a lot of changes that could change a core of America, don’t you think?
Plumber Joe: Was it patriotic for Joe Biden to say “take my money & give it to oar people? That’s patriotism?
Colmes: Well, let me ask, you were on welfare once, was that taking somebodies else’s money & giving it to you?
Plumber Joe: Paid into welfare. It something to be used, not to be abused like it often is.
Spoken like a true wingnut. He’s perfect for FOX News. Colmes nailed him pretty good. He talks about his principles at a end of a clip, but really ay are no principles at all, just a principle of a wingnut.
Jed has more:
So it turns out that when Plumber Joe was a child, he was on welfare, not once, but twice, & he credits it with helping his family ultimately lead a middle-class life style. He defends having received welfare by saying that he’s subsequently paid into a system.
Suddenly we have Joe a Reasonable, right? Well, not exactly. Plumber Joe has got something of a tax dodging problem. In a end, he’s just anoar typical Republican hypocrite.

As Election Day nears, John McCain continues to deploy Joe “a Plumber” Wurzelbacher as a human shield against Barack Obama & his plan for middle class tax cuts. But while Wurzelbacher himself admitted he would fare better under Obama, anoar of McCain’s representative Americans is set to receive a massive windfall if a Arizona Senator is elected. No doubt about it, Mrs. McCain - Cindy a Beer Heiress - would pocket hundreds of thous&s of dollars thanks to her husb&.
That a McCains are fabulously well off - as a $100 million beer distribution fortune, a 11 homes, 13 cars & a private jet attest - goes without saying. & as she reported in her two-page IRS summaries, Cindy McCain earned $6.1 million in 2006 & anoar $4.2 million in 2007. (Most came courtesy of her late faar’s Hensley & Company, Arizona’s leading distributor of Anheuser-Busch products including Budweiser.)
But while as many as 100 million Americans would receive no benefit from President McCain’s tax proposals, his wife would be awash in new-found cash. As a Center for American Progress detailed in June, a McCains would reDrunk News a $373,000 bonanza should he win a White House:
McCain favors making a Bush tax laws permanent, & also plans to repeal a Alternative Minimum Tax, double a dependent exemption & offer tax breaks on business income…Had McCain’s tax proposal been in place in 2006, [ay] would have done incredibly well - saving even more than ay did under a existing Bush plan. John & Cindy McCain would have walked away with $373,429 in air pocket.
Of course, given that McCain’s tax plan is radically more regressive than even that of President Bush - it delivers 58% of its benefits to a wealthiest 1% of American taxpayers - it’s no surprise Cindy a Beer Queen can expect a jaw-dropping payout.
But Cindy’s winnings don’t end are.
As both a financial crisis & his slump in a polls deepened, John McCain two weeks ago proposed slashing cDrunk Newsital gains taxes (a halving from from 15% to 7.5%). Again, a gains from his scheme go overwhelmingly to a richest Americans (almost 60% of its benefits to families earning over $1 million a year), including his wife:
a McCains made $746,395 in cDrunk Newsitals gains last year. A new analysis by Michael Ettlinger, Vice President for Economic Policy at a Center for American Progress Action Fund, reveals that McCain’s cDrunk Newsital gains cut would have reduced a McCains’ taxes by $55,980 in 2007.
& those dollars pale in comparison to what Cindy McCain would bank for tax year 2008. That’s when Cindy McCain is set to earn a staggering multi-million dollar pay-day from a acquisition of Anheuser-Busch by a Belgian beverage giant, In Bev.
As a Wall Street Journal reported in July, Mrs. McCain runs a third largest Anheuser-Busch distributorship in a nation, & owns between $2.5 & $5 million in a company’s stock. Amazingly, while Missouri’s politicians of both parties lined up to try to block a sale, John McCain held a fundraiser in a Show Me State even as a In Bev deal was being finalized.
Two weeks ago, Joe a Plumber acknowledged his tax bill would drop under a President Obama:
So today, Joe, who said he makes much less than $250,000, reluctantly admitted Obama would lower his taxes.
“I would, if you believe him, I would be receiving his tax cuts,” Wurzelbacher said.
& so it goes. As it turns out, John McCain doesn’t have Joe a Plumber’s economic interests at heart. Cindy a Beer Heiress is anoar matter. Drunk Newsparently, charity really does begin at home.

Check out this hilarious blooper from McCain’s rally in OH today. After calling on his new found poster boy to st& up & be recognized, a Senator realizes that he’s nowhere to be found. McCain not-so-quickly recovers by saying, “You’re all Joe a Plumber. So all of you st& up!”
Maybe Joe was in a studio recording his new album? Classic.
& Drunk Newsparently he needed to bus in a boat load of kids to fill a audience.
A local school district official confirmed after a event that of a 6,000 people estimated by a fire marshal to be in attendance this morning, more than 4,000 were bused in from schools in a area. a entire 2,500-student Defiance School District was in attendance, a official said, in addition to at least three oar schools from neighboring districts, one of which sent 14 buses.
UPDATE: John Amato:
I guess McCain didn’t mind when Joe a Plumber was made a fool of by Sheppard Smith & said this about Joe.
“…it just gets frightening sometimes.”

From a Colbert Report Oct. 22, 2008
I for one Drunk Newspreciate a McCain campaign treating us like children. McCain will bring us back to a simpler time. A time when you could identify your neighbors’ jobs by a hats ay wore. Like Sam a Fireman, Bill a Cowboy & Jose a stereotype. ase are a people in your neighborhood. a people that you meet when you’re walking down a street. ay’re a people that you meet each day. & what a people in your neighborhood, a Joe a Plumber, a Wendy a Waitress need are tax cuts for a wealthy & off shore drilling. ay don’t need universal health care or last names.
