Joe is famous. Im a conservative, and I can tell you Joe is famous because..he is a pro plumber that ...happens to know ...about politics, or something. But anyway, go Joe! Dont be suprised if Joe doesnt begin emerging for the media for 2012 campaign.
As I understand it, Joe the Plumber is not even a plumber. He's somebody who wants to have a small business. I'm sure that Big Business hasn't set him up to go around and be the 'little man' that the Republicans pretend to support. It's not Small Business they want the tax breaks extended for (the DEMS want that too). ....it's BIG BUSINESS< the 1% who are scamming the voters so easily.
laissez faire. Government, stay out, we do not need your money, your money achieved through exploitation of the poor, I don't want the tax payers money, because you George, this isn't even your money, get off my land, I do not entitle you to be here.
@Zeldagigafan90210 Yes, because laissez faire has never failed before. That mean old government. I mean, if it wasn't for them, we'd still have such wonders as massive monopolies and other such fun things.
The government should stay away since obviously everything would be just perfect without them, just like it was in the good old days.
His real name is Samuel Wurzelbacher who is the son in law of McCain's old buddy Charlie Keating, the guy who ripped off millions from mostly elderly and retired people with Lincoln Thrift and McCain (and four other senators, the Keating Five) got in trouble for protecting Keating from prosecution against him when he was clearly two things: 1) Guilty as sin and 2) A huge scumbag who makes a living out of fleecing old people. He was made to look like he just showed up that day but he was a plant.
If the democraps had any balls, they'd bury these racist backward-ass retarded republicans while they are weak and divided. Thats my biggest problem with them, they lack some freakin balls
Cenk is out of line here. "Your a plumber and your talking about the financial bailout?" Well I'm a college student and I'm talking about the financial bailout. Cenk needs to remember that he is trying to reach out to the common man, and he can't have this "oh well your a (insert modest occupation)" so why should I care about your opinion attitude.
I can see the Joe and Sara show on Fox in the near future. As soon as they run out of book money, they will be looking for more. Its a perfect match "made in heaven" for the Fox network. Sara Palin bailed on the Alaskans as soon as she got her book money and Joe is no doubt looking for his free ride as well.
Joe the plumber having a talk show? Which station would hire this idiot? This man is a liar, he is unskilled, he is silly and did I mention that he is a liar?
The man knows noothing, a reality show?.......... Give me a break.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
A stiffy? time to graduate from JR high.
Presence ment that he felt she was being real. Not like Obama who claims to be a christain then tells Americans even though his gandmother did not believe in christ because she was a good women he believes she is in heaven. He also said John 16:3 he ment 3:16 was his favorite verse that basically says who ever belives in christ will have ever lastin life. I think he was dead on with john 16:3 LOL.
Obama used faith to when votes when he knows nothing.
This guy's a shill. Average Americans can't have a opinion about the bailout? And what's wrong with being a plumber? Yea, he threw John McCain under the bus because he stood up for the thieves on Wall street. Famous or not, it's deeper than fame, it's about our economic future. Who cares who made who famous.
Sure, they can have an opinion. But what makes this guy's opinion any more worthwhile than mine, or yours, or Cenks? Nothing. And there's nothing wrong with being a plumber. But how does that qualify one to speak to a complex economic issue? He has no education or expertise in any sort of relevant field (politics, economics, etc.). And he hasn't shown himself to be particularly eloquent on the subject either. So why should we care what he says?
It's not about who's opinion is worthwhile or not. It's about people not wanting others to speak the truth. I also don't need to be an educated bobble head to speak my mind, in fact Joe the plumber is probably working, while others are busy being eduacted so they can come out to a jobless economy.
He isn't speaking "the truth." He's giving his opinion, which is based on what? Look, I bow to his experience in fixing my garbage disposal, but for economic advice? On what basis should the country turn to him? This isn't just about formal education. I'd trust Bill Gates to fix my computer, because he's proven he knows his stuff. This guy? Hasn't said a single word that convinces me he knows the least thing about econ.
You can find his information on wiki, but in short he is a republican who asked a question to Obama and became famous because McCain used his name many times during one of the presidential debate. Then the media focused so much on him to a point he became famous.
He is not a plumber, just wish to be one and never bought/made a company to my knowledge.
Now that Joe the unlicensed plumber has publically rejected the Republican party, it will be only a matter of days before the shamelss GOP begins to smear their former blue collar poster boy.
Anyone care to bet on which GOP shill / media whore will lead the charge?
Someone should really look into this Joe the Plumber guys background. His last name is the same as a guy who got busted with john McCain in the Keating 5 scandal back in the early 90's.
As a conservative, John McCain would have been bad as Obama with the horrible Cap and Trade plan; McCain's people never wanted Palin to succeed, becasue she wouldn't change herself to be someone she isn't, so they took her down along with there own campaign. I still don't know why people hate Joe the plumber so much, all he did was ask the future president some questions as a American citizen; tell me if I am not right?
The thing is the question was a lie. The question was like this: I make X dollars and I'm about to buy the business I work for, you're going to raise taxes on me, aren't you?
But he didn't make X dollars and he wasn't about to buy the business.
People hate Joe the Plumber because he he has no clue about politics or economics, yet people still give his opinion opinion weight when he says that the bailout is bad an won't work. He represents the idiocy of the Republican party: They're willing to give weight to an uneducated plumber's opinion, but not that of ivy-league economists.
Not defending Joe the Plumber or Republicans, but DO YOU ACTUALLY BELIEVE THE BAILOUT WORKED? The trap plan that Ivy league people like Tim Gietner was in charge of over 500 Billion, promising companies like Chrysler wouldn't fail, wait they did, THEY FILED FOR BANKRUPTCY THIS PAST WEEK. You don't have to be a genius to figure out when you spend a lot more than you make, you will be screwed eventually.
The Synesthetic-Part2-The problem with the bailout plan is it's money we don't have, government won't release records who it went to, and people like Chris Todd(FRAUD that got favored housing deal and still hasn't provided papers) and Barnie Frank(who flat out lied to the American people, by saying Fannie and Freddie Mac are in great shape; 3 months later bailout).
I like the TYT videos, but this one worried me a little bit. I thought Cenk covered Sarah Palin very accurately throughout the campaign. However, I hope not everyone here loves these bailouts. I'm worried about them. I don't want to see America in too much debt. Joe is probably a moron, but he had a good point about the bailouts and about him not having a non-bailout option to vote for.
You know the old saying: There's no honor among thieves. Joe the Dumber used McCain as a tool to get propped up for his own 15 minutes of fame. Just like Sarah Falin did. I would feel sorry for McCain because it seems like everyone around him just used him like a cheap Lifestyles condom. But he brought it on himself with his increasingly negative attacks and even resorting to the Southern Strategy. After he pulled out the Southern Strategy (which Reagan and Nixon did too) I lost all sympathy.
he's an opportunist. there is nothing to like. he's a lowlife. I wouldn't doubt if he was a set up by the RNC to ambush Obama and it backfired. he didn't get off the bus because he didn't have bus fare home. if he is so stupid that he thinks Palin is the real deal then that is some powerful stupid !
I agree with you bro, love TYT's videos, talks it up straight, the way things REALLY ARE. keep it up guys. i'll donate without thinking twice if it requires...
@monky999 because he was on tv & simple-minded idiots swallow his BS & since there r so many of these fools he is popular therefore he sells commercials therefore he is on TV more therefore we know him, in short america is an insane bizarro world, which is why a fool like palin can b so popular as well, she's a complete idiot that speaks with confidence so she is a hero 2 a bunch of fools... america the weak ....... "palin is the real deal" he's being paid, fuking idiot sell-out
They bumped into this guy supposedly called Joe, and started using him as an example of the "average Joe", meaning the average American.
The plumber thought they were talking specifically about him, because he is a bit slow. He tried to make a career out of it, not realizing that nobody gives a flying f**k what he thinks.
I really hope that he does not really represent the "average" US citizen.
Only in America!!! would anyone take that stupid git seriously. Over this side of the Atlantic we have "Joe the Plumber" types as well, but we usually call them "pub bores", the kind of uneducated wankers who need a "wise up transplant" and bend your ear with their absurd views.
I wonder what the title of his book will be?
I suggest "Sarah and John down the u-tube", "Neoconism in full flush" or just "Stirring the shit".
I mean, to some extents you do need credentials to be listened to. That's just how it works out. His only credentials are that he's "supposedly" mr. Joe 6 pack and that John McCain decides to mention him. Is he automatically an expert now that this happens?
So the guy shouldn't have an opinion because he isn't a lawyer or a doctor? So next time somebody asks you a question pullout your resume before you answer so they know your opinion matters! What a fascist liberal tactic to cut down somebody's opinion based on the color of their collar. Lets just make liberals happy and convert to the caste system.
I am sure people on youtube know all the facts. The only fact I really know about the bailouts is that they are using our tax dollars to save companies that are failing because they are either bad with money or cannot compete. Which to me makes no sense at all.
Yeah but he gets special attention. What makes his voice any more loud than any other citizens voice? I think that's partially what Cent meant by that; and not specifically that a citizens voice doesn't matter. I mean, the guy gets a book deal; you see any of us getting the same thing? All because John McCain talks about him. He gets too much attention for no particularly good reason.
I like the vid, but "Joe's" opinion about the bailout was exactly right. McCain should have never supported it, and if he had stood up against it I think the election would have been much much closer.
If McCain had opposed the bailout I may have voted for him instead of Obama. But after he supported it, it just went against everything Republicans were supposed to stand for and it was a disgrace.
Whoa whoa whoa, normally Cenk is pretty reasonable, but where does he get off saying that Joe the Plumber doesn't know enough to criticize the bailout? He isn't any more or less qualified than many of the millions of Americans in blue collar jobs, or who are otherwise doing poorly financially, who rejected the idea of bailing out Wall Street.
i think hes sayin that he doesnt know enough for other people to really care or respect his reasoning. hes not an economist, its not really what he does.
so yes he can say what he wants to about it, but what do we care what joe the plumber thinks about the bailout? its not a very unique perspective
Joe "the loser" Plumber I wouldn't hire him if my house was flooded. Hey Cenk, maybe we should inform the IRS to keep track of Joey's paid radio and TV interviews. That way, in case he decides not to file it as income on his 2008 Tax return, we'll throw him in the slammer to think about it for awhile!
This just shows what a HUGE hypocrite Joe the Plumber was. The man supported a candidate he didn't like over the candidate he really didn't like instead of supporting a candidate he did like. That is called politics. Joe the plumber was playing politics. He demands straightforwardness from his politicians down talks "traditional washington politics" and then goes on to act like a traditional washington insider sacrificing his integrity for an actually obtainable result.
No, its called being a realist. Only 2 candidates had a chance to win the election. You vote for the lesser of 2 evils in many instances because a vote for another candidate is a lost vote.
I don't give a rat's ass about Joe the Plumber. He DOES, however, as a citizen, certainly have a right to his opinion (same as anybody - yes, even the "Hollywood elite" - lol) , and based on what I've seen lately, I would say MOST plumbers, (fake or real) and actors are a HELL of a lot smarter and more honest than the financial industry "experts".
huh! Excuse me...however isn't the present occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave,the *Father of Socialism?* After all he and King Henry are the ones picking and choosing winners and losers...certainly not the *President-ELECT* making these choices.
Interesting Joe the Plumber didn't *Speak his Mind* during the campaign. Wasn't he adopted/hijacked by the *war survivor and Caribou Barbie* as a campaign prop?
Fuck Joe the fake ass Plummer!! Asshole barely even pays his taxes and is concern about the bailout. Wish these bastards would just go away. The snake ass politians are ruining our country in the ground with the medias help.They tell you what to think & believe because most people don't do their on any issue or what they report.
Cenk, isn't that kind of the point? He never said he liked John McCain or that he was going to vote for him, and yet McCain abducted him into his campaign... therefore he's allowed to say whatever he wants to. He doesn't work for John McCain. I don't think the guy's very smart but the campaign's over, he's not destroying McCain's campaign... he's just speaking his mind.
If only I could plunge the shit coming out of Joe's mouth like he does toilets...the straight-talk express has went down the drain (pun fully intended)! Yeah I feel a presence from Palin too...arrogance and stupidity!
There is nothing wrong with being one-sided, this is his career, he at least knows something about what he is speaking on, which is more than we can say about Joe the plumber. He claimed he was appalled by the spreading the wealth statement because it comes from his tax dollars when he wasn't paying his taxes and collecting welfare. Whoever listens to Joe is an idiot.
So now what he's doing is dropping McCain and approving of Sarah Palin so he can stay in the limelight for the next couple of years... just cause she's slightly more interesting and newsworthy.
I like Joe the Plumber and Palin! They helped to deliver us the best President America will ever know, their stupidity is classic and appreciated from an avid Obama supporter.
Joe was obviously fake. I could see this from the get-go.
Thing I don't like is where Cenk doesn't necessarily care about the opinion of a plumber. Plumbers themselves aren't necessarily bad people. In fact, they're necessary to society.
Now, Cenk not caring about Joe the FAKE plumber's opinion, THAT, on the other hand, is VALID.
Good question - where is his $ coming from? So did this big-mouth redneck buy his boss's business with his book advance? After 8 years of lunkheads dominating the conversation about everything from immigration to gay rights, I hope the next decade's media features intellligent experts. Leave the tabloid news for fashion and stars' rehab. Joe has blurred the the line between reality TV and junk journalism.
I never felt bad for joe the freakin plumber cuz it was obvious to me from the get go he was nothing but a dumb joke and is only trying to cash in on his 15 minutes of fame by any means possible.
Palin is the real deal alright. What you see in the interviews is what you get. A dumbass bimbo who wants to force her religulous "morals" on the American people.
As a blue collar guy I wish they would have picked an intelligent plumber who pays his taxes. This makes ppl like us look bad, not all of us are morons and many ppl who own a business in or work in the trades do very well.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Sarah is the real deal! Joe the Plumber has the right to his opinions! You do not have to agree. The YT guy is a snob! Who cares what his opinions are!
LOL Sarah Palin is the real deal ;) yeah that's why they had to spend over a hundred thousand bucks dolling her up for the cameras.
All she did was play attack moose for McCain, insinuating unsupported allegations about Obama that he was some sort of scary terrorist negro. If that's your hero...
He can't figure out that his taxes will be lower, not higher, under Obama. He can't figure out until later that he doesn't like McCain either. But he loves Palin. This is why the Republican party is in trouble.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Cenk, you kinda disappointed me. Just because the man is a plumber, doesn't mean you should be condescending. There are plenty of blue collar workers out there who contemplate issues that you would deem too complex for them. You aren't acting very liberal when you don't give blue collar workers a chance. And no I am not a blue collar worker.
It's not a matter of being condeescending. He is just making the point that I'm not going to call a plumber to handle a financial bailout. Just like I wouldn't call a janitor to do my open heart surgery. Everyone can have an opinion about what the right and wrong thing to do is, but if it's not your area of expertise then your opinion isn't very valid.
Joe honestly needs to put a plastic bag over his head and zip tie the end to his neck. I honestly cant imagine anyone excluding his neighbors, friends, and family giving a shit about his cheap 9.99 book you'd find at Walmart. What would he possibly have to say in his 125 page, easy read a long book of idiots, he can't say on the air?
I felt the same thing about him....I liked the guy although I did not agree with him...I felt sorry for him...but now....man he is loosing his mind...I predict a very hard fall and they will not be able to put him together again....LMAO
i wonder the same thing, what deos this guy do for money? but a even better question would be why deos he still get media attention? maybe its becuase its entertaining just how dumb this guy is. this guy deosnt have a clue, he only has blind idealogy
You know what, joe the freaking plumber is absolutely right about Sarah Palin! She is the real deal, but for Joe the Plumber! cause by any measure she is the only one guys like Joe can understand with their retarded brain!(-:
all i can ask is why is joe the asshat still getting publicity? the guy is no one just a prop in mccains campaign. nothing special here media people move the hell on already....
No matter how much Palin wants to serve the american people, being how knowledgeable she is about how to run a country, the best thing she can do is never run for a public office again.
Willingness to serve does not mean you have the experience or intelligence to do the right thing.
He must be a conservative if Cenk is ripping on him.

he's an opportunist. there is nothing to like. he's a lowlife. I wouldn't doubt if he was a set up by the RNC to ambush Obama and it backfired. he didn't get off the bus because he didn't have bus fare home. if he is so stupid that he thinks Palin is the real deal then that is some powerful stupid !

They bumped into this guy supposedly called Joe, and started using him as an example of the "average Joe", meaning the average American.
The plumber thought they were talking specifically about him, because he is a bit slow. He tried to make a career out of it, not realizing that nobody gives a flying f**k what he thinks.
I really hope that he does not really represent the "average" US citizen.

So the guy shouldn't have an opinion because he isn't a lawyer or a doctor? So next time somebody asks you a question pullout your resume before you answer so they know your opinion matters!

I am sure people on youtube know all the facts. The only fact I really know about the bailouts is that they are using our tax dollars to save companies that are failing because they are either bad with money or cannot compete. Which to me makes no sense at all.
Ericjpomeroy 3 years ago 2
Yeah but he gets special attention. What makes his voice any more loud than any other citizens voice? I think that's partially what Cent meant by that; and not specifically that a citizens voice doesn't matter. I mean, the guy gets a book deal; you see any of us getting the same thing? All because John McCain talks about him. He gets too much attention for no particularly good reason.

I like the vid, but "Joe's" opinion about the bailout was exactly right. McCain should have never supported it, and if he had stood up against it I think the election would have been much much closer.
If McCain had opposed the bailout I may have voted for him instead of Obama. But after he supported it, it just went against everything Republicans were supposed to stand for and it was a disgrace.

Whoa whoa whoa, normally Cenk is pretty reasonable, but where does he get off saying that Joe the Plumber doesn't know enough to criticize the bailout? He isn't any more or less qualified than many of the millions of Americans in blue collar jobs, or who are otherwise doing poorly financially, who rejected the idea of bailing out Wall Street.
Bad move there, Cenk, bad move.

Joe "the loser" Plumber I wouldn't hire him if my house was flooded. Hey Cenk, maybe we should inform the IRS to keep track of Joey's paid radio and TV interviews. That way, in case he decides not to file it as income on his 2008 Tax return, we'll throw him in the slammer to think about it for awhile!

He demands straightforwardness from his politicians down talks "traditional washington politics" and then goes on to act like a traditional washington insider sacrificing his integrity for an actually obtainable result.

There is nothing wrong with being one-sided, this is his career, he at least knows something about what he is speaking on, which is more than we can say about Joe the plumber.
