This guy is un-frickin-believable

Now available for pre-order on Amazon:



Surely this will be the literary equivalent of a fudge toilet.

Also, this guy has no compunction about backstabbing the guy who made him famous in the first place:

Now Joe the Plumber tells us?

Apparently, the American people weren't the only ones who felt a little dirty about Joe the Plumber's presence on the campaign trail. He felt the same way.

At least, that's what he told conservative talker Glenn Beck in a recent appearance on Beck's radio show to promote his forthcoming book, "Joe the Plumber: Fighting for the American Dream."

ThinkProgress has the transcript (Wurzelbacher is Joe the Plumber):

WURZELBACHER: When I was on the bus with him... I asked him some pretty direct questions. Some of the answers you guys are gonna receive — they appalled me, absolutely. I was angry. In fact I wanted to get off the bus after I talked to him.

BECK: Really? Now why didn’t you get off the bus?

WURZELBACHER: Um, you know, honestly, because the thought of Barack Obama as president scares me even more.

There was someone he liked, though: "Sarah Palin," he said, "is absolutely the real deal."

Doesn't anyone realize that the "American Dream" needs to die as soon as possible?

If "American Dream" means "earning fame for complete bullshit", then Mr. Wurzelbelcher has won the fight.

When the McCain camp first trotted this turd out on their campaign, a guy I work with says, "oh man, this guy just wanted to mind his own business but Obama had to get him in trouble for not paying taxes."    Yeah, this guy was really trying to fly under the radar.  Now I'm embarassed I voted for him as mayor of Newbridge [eight times].

i actually need to call a plumber tomorrow and i can't even bring myself to do it after reading this. i think i hate plumbers now. i'm just going to let the basement keep flooding and flooding (i'm serious.) when the water finally makes it up to the 1st floor - it's movin' time (again.)
