Joe the Plumber: "McCain screwed up my life" - Polidicks

[QUOTE]Joe the Plumber is no longer a fan of either Sarah Palin or John McCain, it seems. Joe, also known as Sam Wurzelbacher, told an audience in Pennsylvania this week that McCain "is no public servant." "McCain was trying to use me," Wurzelbacher said, according to public radio correspondent Scott Detrow. "I happened to be the face of middle Americans. It was a ploy.” "I don’t owe him s—," Wurzelbacher continued. "He really screwed my life up, is how I look at it.” In fact, Wurzelbacher's dislike for McCain is so strong that he no longer supports Sarah Palin simply because Palin will campaign for McCain's re-election. As for Obama: "I think his ideology is un-American, but he’s one of the more honest politicians. At least he told us what he wanted to do."[/QUOTE] [URL="http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/81035-joe-the-plumber-tears-into-john-mccain"]Source[/URL] He had his 15 minutes and now he's just whining for more attention.

He was bitching long before this too, most people don't even remember him. Every time he bitches he brings attention to himself. (Most likely his plan too.)

[QUOTE=supertoaster;20223351]The article doesn't look like he wants more attention[/QUOTE] Nobody cares about him. And everyone forgot about him. So what does he do? He whines in front of "an audience" to tell them that he dislikes attention.

It really took him this long to figure that out?

Remind me again how he got the name "Joe the Plumber" if his name is Sam Wurzelbacher and he's not a plumber?

[QUOTE=-Ben_Wolfe-;20223544]Remind me again how he got the name "Joe the Plumber" if his name is Sam Wurzelbacher and he's not a plumber?[/QUOTE] Sam Josef Wurzelbacher. And he wanted to open a plumbing business.

[QUOTE=-Ben_Wolfe-;20223544]Remind me again how he got the name "Joe the Plumber" if his name is Sam Wurzelbacher and he's not a plumber?[/QUOTE] Because he's an average Joe. And what better to represent the average Joe than a plumber, am I right?

Man his life is rough

That's Politics folks!

The reason why his life is ruined is because his personal life and criminal history was dug up during all of the media attention. Now everyone knows about him. [editline]08:38PM[/editline] That, or it was all slander. Regardless, people have a set deposition towards him.

Guess he got a firsthand look at how little Republicans care for the unwashed middle class.

[QUOTE=Melkor;20223578]Because he's an average Joe.

Well least that how it goes in Chicago where need be Irish to get permits.

more like joe the [I]dumber[/I]

I'm really not a huge fan of either candidates, though I think Obama was the clear choice.

lol, headsweat

Had he chosen someone that didn't throw every neutral voter to the left side he would have stood a damn good chance at winning. That aside he's not a terrible candidate.

You can say he's bad all you want but in the end he's an average candidate with nothing particularly exceptional. Palin was a tard. The country is swinging to the left at the moment but of course it always teeters back and forth. As soon as a Liberal president fucks up everything, they will be screaming for a Conservative. It's just politics. It will be quite a few years before America is ready for another Republican president unless shit really hits the fan. It's always important to remember though, that the American definition of a "Liberal" and a "Conservative," are very skewed anyway.

He's fat and bald.

[QUOTE=yawmwen;20225245]Not a good candidate either. Obama is the same.[/QUOTE] No matter what happens, unless they're all around perfect, they are considered a bad candidate. Out of the many people who tried to get the nominations for their respective parties, I'd say they could have done a lot worse and not much better.

I don't know what I would have done if shit for brains Guliani or Clinton got elected. We have so many meh candidates today. Obama and Palin are the only semi-exciting politicians. What happened to badass people like Teddy?

McCain's "maverick" act was a farce intended to dupe people into thinking he didn't march in lockstep with Bush, Corporate America, and the rest of the GOP. His voting record before and since has been nothing but unwavering far-right. Joe was a tool, briefly exploited to win support from the more gullible of the middle and lower classes, and unceremoniously cast aside after the election.

Another dumb republican. "His ideologies are un-american." Give me a fucking break.

Well, maybe he could act as a double for Bruce Willis or for Locke in Lost. He's got the baldness for it. And 1000th post. Whoop.

[QUOTE=TheMetalMan;20224371]So Obama paid him to say this so people that loved McCain hate Obama less? Smart Obama, smart.[/QUOTE] Could you point out where it says that Obama paid him to bash McCain? Or where it says that Obama has had anything to do with the guy?

Is he retarded? The whole point was to use him for the campaign, it was obvious from the start.
