So now we have "Julio the Bergerman"
President Obama will bring him to washington and give him a West Wing office as an economic advisor. He can regularly meet with Joe the Plumber and jointly propose bi-partisan economic advise to the Treasury Department and Federal Reserve. Only in America.

1. Thanksfully, Obama is not insane like McCain
We'll prob only hear for Julio for a day or two at most, we had to deal with Joe the plumber much longer because McCain decided to make him the fucking centerpiece of his pathetic campaign.

3. "Insane McCain". I like the sound of that
Tongue in cheek humor guys. Don't be so sensative about the President. He is a human being too.

11. We know he is but your comparing his
meeting Julio to some lame brain faux mccain plumber is nonsense.

4. I don't think Joe realizes yet
That these fatcat scumbags are just using him.
He's a diversion from whats really in their playbook!

5. these two are nothing alike
except that both were "discovered" at a political event.

Joe the Plumber was not named Joe and was not a plumber.

Julio didn't lie and say he WAS a broadcaster. He said he wanted to be one.


Joe hadn't paid his taxes in a while.

Julip pays his taxes.


Julio wasn't elevated to cult status by Obama, but rather by attention he received at an Obama event.

Joe was elevated to hero status by McCain and the dittoheads. They cared not that Joe was not really a Joe at all.

Obama is not talking about Julio for the next 6 months and taking Julio around the country as a prop.

Julio was actually working toward his stated goal, Joe the Plumber was not licensed as a plumber.

and was not named Joe.

And is not qualified to be a journalist, an economic adviser, or a plumber.

Julio didn't lie to us and he's all kinds of adorable in his genuine enthusiasm and hard work!
