We're All 'Joe the Plumber' Now!
Politics Daily —
Filed under: Barack Obama, John McCain, Breaking News, Humor, Viral VideoJoe the Plumber stood up John the Candidate today in Ohio. I guess he was busy being shown around Nashville by his new best friend, Hank Williams, Jr. You see, Joe, as was reported this week, has parlayed his 15-minutes of fame into a country music recording contract, negotiated by his brand new agent.

Or, at least, the ridiculous phase:
Via Fox News: ‘Joe the Plumber’ Backs Claim That Obama Would Bring ‘Death to Israel’
and
Via the Politico: Joe the Plumber pursued for record deal

You gotta be kidding me. This guy, first of all, should have zero credibility left. But after he’s expose as a fraud, he’s talking about running for Congress. That’s bad enough, but we already have a number of politicians who also know-nothing poseurs. But a record deal?
Move over, Sanjaya, and tell William Hung the news: Joe the Plumber is being pursued for a major record deal and could come out with a country album as early as Inauguration Day.

... . * And on a related note, Wurzelbacher is "being pursued for a major record deal and could come out with a country album as early as Inauguration Day." I wish I were kidding . "Joe the Plumber" has signed a deal with a Nashville p.r. firm to exploit his notoriety for all its worth. Anything to add? Consider this an open thread.— ...
Joe The War Correspondent
Daily Kos —
... Ohio man who became a household name during the presidential campaign says he is heading to Israel as a war correspondent for the conservative Web site pjtv.com. Samuel J. Wurzelbacher (WUR'-zuhl-bah-kur) says he'll spend 10 days covering the fighting. He tells WNWO-TV in Toledo that he wants to let Israel's "'Average Joes' share their story." So Not-Joe the Not-Plumber has now gone from not-plumbing, to being Joe The Candidate, to Joe the Country Star, to Joe the War Correspondent. This, of course, after Not-Joe, ...
