And then there's this from Joe: "Social Security is a joke. ... I don't need another set of parents. ... Let me invest my money," (http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/10/16/joe-plumber-represents-hopes-dreams-political-football/) [what a fair and balanced url] And I liked the quote from the real "Joe the Plumber" Tom Joseph, business manager for Local 50 of the United Association of Plumbers, Steamfitters, and Service Mechanics, Mr. Wurzelbacher.... has got no schooling, no licenses, he's never been to a training program, union or non-union, in the United States of America" The United Plumbers and friends have endorsed Barack Obama. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Like TV only smarter.
