"Asked about Israel’s ban on foreign journalists entering the Gaza Strip, Wurzelbacher made it clear he has no desire to see the front lines himself or to investigate both sides of the story."

And this line is a real winner:
"I think media should be abolished from reporting."

What a complete moron! What does he think a reporters job should be?

I thought we hit the bottom with Bush!

This guy is a simpleton! Let's move on to more interesting and intelligent people and topics.

Joe the plumber, just before the cameras
were turned on:

"Gee guys, this looks like a great place
to put a leach field in, anybody do a
perk test yet ! "

Like stepping in chewing gum. John will probably have to take this guy under his wing and say, "it's over joe". Nobody bought it.

Wow. This guy is a complete retard. If he really does represent the "average american" like some people here think, then I am really ashamed to be an America.

God Bless Joe! God Bless Sarah!
God Bless the tin man and
toutou too!

Did he actually say "I think media should be abolished from reporting"??? Really???

Joe the plumber is not even a licensed plumber. Being a right winged nut job he even lied about about being a real plumber. He is a plumbers helper at best and a moron at that. He is one of those trailer park republicans that was in trouble with the IRS for not paying his taxes.

And are we supposed to care what he has to say. He's an embarrassment for America. Go home Joe and get your apprentice plumbers license for a start.

I can't believe this, maybe they'll blow him up!!

Look at the comments from the right wing folks that have posted here - they are against having a free press - one is against people even weighing in with opinions - one suggests that liberals probably deserve to die - theirs is a pretty strange version of America

you get the sense that they must be rooting for the guy with the funny mustache's side in the new Tom Cruise film about Nazi Germany.

ABC and BBC are stupid for taking their time to talk about this Olosi Oloriburuku

what an idiot

What an idiot. Go back and start cleaning out toilets again.

Yes, let's get on to more important things, like skinny celebrities and a "fat" Oprah.

Hmm...plumbing is getting to be too much for this guy. I don't need to know the facts. Jack, all I have to do is work for a predetermined propaganda machine and say what I feel....to try to know the truth is wicked. I don't have to work...my job is to be a picture on a frame expousing Christian right-wing nut job views.

What the hell do you guys know about contractors licenses?

My employees build, install, and finish 3 million dollars worth of cabinets every year. How many of my guys have licenses. . .zero. How many of them are skilled cabinet makers, installers, and finishers. . .every one of them. Are we operating legally under state law . . .absolutely 100%. Get a clue. . . many entire homes are completely built by unlicensed workers, as long as the construction business holds the license. What do you call a plumber who plumbs an entire home on his own but works directly for a construction company? A helper?

I know several licensed contractors who literally couldn't build a dog house.

Joe misses the lime light and wants the burning phosphorus, the silly hamas rockets and the Israel bombardment not to be shown to reporters so that he can say what he wants and deny the world viewers from watching any horrors of war. Good going Joe I guess you got flushed down from the USA into the midst of hell to try and get some lime light.

ABC must really not have anything better to do than to report on some idiot who McCain/Palin used for their campaign slogan. Who cares about Joe. There really is nothing that extraordinary about him. Get over it!!
