Hey, Joe. Who do you think you are?









Are you an undecided voter or something? Can't you make up your mind? What is your problem?


Not sure?

Well, I'll tell you.

Your problem is you're a dirty attention stealing dink. You know, there was a real debate to be had with important issues that needed to be talked about.

You just kept getting in the way, didn't you Joe? It always has to be about Joe. That's the way you are, with you and your plumbing. You know there are other industries that have gotten the shaft for far too long, but you go and make it all about plumbing. Way to go Joe.

And why Joe the plumber?

Doesn't anyone care about Joe Cool, Joe Blow, or Joe Mamma anymore?
They matter too.

And why plumbers?
Do you think plumbers care about you? Ask yourself this? Are you on the top of the world? If not, they you should be anti-plumber. Plumbers have rules and rule #1 is "Shit flows down hill". That's right, there's your trickle down plumbernomics, an oozing stream of excrement for the masses.

Hell no. We've had enough of you and your $150 dollar an hour lifestyle Joe.

Sincerely,

The Butcher, The Baker, and the Candlestick Maker.



Rub-a-dub-dub
Three men in a tub,
And who do you think they be?

The butcher, the baker,
The candlestick maker,
They all jumped out of a rotten potato!
Turn 'em out knaves all three.

There's also Joe Schmoe and a history of other Joes

Bubs said...

Really, he should be known as "Joe the handyman" or "Joe the laborer" because as it turns out he's not a licensed plummer. He also doesn't make close to $250k a year.

I'm sensing a GOP plant, and now the publicity is not going well.

Bubs - Way to keep your finger on the pulse though, I don't think he's a GOP plant. Actually, he's someone Obama interviewed last weeked.

Besides not having his License since soons, turns out he made 40k last year and has a tax lien against him. Whoops.

The first thing I thought about when I heard this, because I come from a family of plumbers, is whatever, THESE ARE SOME OF THE RICHEST PEOPLE I KNOW.

justacoolcat said...

l - Good point.

VE said...

Joe? Joe? The only Joe I know is Joe Mamma! Ha ha. Oh come on, its a juvinile classic!

I love this country.

Megan - You, my friend, are a patriot.

Randy said...

McCain was going to bring Joe Six Pack up on stage but he got drunk and puked on Sarah Palin.

Bridget Jones said...

Now THAT was a great post among great posts, JACC!

justacoolcat said...

Randy - Lies! McCain can drink 80 beers and still not be drunk. He learned it from my plumber friend.

Bridget - It was my journalistic doody.

The thing that gets me about this Joe the Plumber guy is that he's worried that he might...someday...if he makes 5 times what he's making now...he might have to pay more taxes.

I shall quote Tyler Durden: "We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't..."

justacoolcat said...

James - It's a sad statement the amount of wisdom Mr.Durden has contributed to our society. There is no plumber club.

Bubs- I'm starting to think maybe I stand corrected, and there-is-no-plumber was actually a plant.

Randy said...

Joe the plumber to man at a bar: I fucked your mother!

Man at bar: Go home, Dad, you're drunk.

VE said...

I only read every third line...comes from years of marriage...sorry...

justacoolcat said...

Randy - I heard they were chanting "Plumb Him!" "Plumb Him!" at a rotoRooter Rally.

Ve - *nods* Yes dear, that is a great idea.
