Joe The Plumber Tells Conservatives: "I'm Horny"
Edited on Fri Mar-20-09 11:37 AM by SemiCharmedQuark
Megan Slack at Huffington Post:

"Joe the Plumber -- real name Samuel Wurzelbacher -- told a crowd of conservatives Thursday night that their love was getting him all hot and bothered.

"God, all this love and everything in the room -- I'm horny," declared Joe.

Wurzelbacher had taken the stage to a standing ovation at the annual "DisHonors" Awards, presented by the Media Research Center, to poke fun liberal media groups. But the "horny" declaration didn't go over too well, according to the Washington Post.

Buzz immediately commenced.


"Did Joe the Plumber really just say he's horny?" "Did you hear Joe say 'horny'?" "Why is he horny and why is he telling us?" ...

After declaring he was horny, Joe mumbled a few other things about being the "token redneck" and the media loving him, and then sat back down in a sea of conservative luminaries that included G. Gordon Liddy, former Attorney General Ed Meese, radio talk show host Mark Levin, Fox News' Brit Hume and former House speaker (for half a minute) Bob Livingston.

Since debuting during the presidential campaign as the face of an "average Joe," Wurzelbacher has kept himself busy, talking strategy with conservative groups and doling out criticism for RNC Chairman Michael Steele.

"Unfortunately, we have a chairman up there who wants to redefine conservatism; he wants to make it hip hop, put it in a new package and sell it," Wurzelbacher said. "You can't sell principles; either you have them or you don't.""

17. "...most use of a plant..."
"...in a presidential campaign."

I second that, in both senses of the word "plant". He was such an obvious plant by the GOP, and he has the intelligence of a cabbage. If that.

5. Ew. Time to take him down to the clinic and have him neutered, before he starts humping everything.
That's a hard habit to break.

13. You have to wonder if it was really that bad or if the most embarrassing
photos have been used selectively. Since when is there a shortage of morans?

16. I have to think they're using selected photos. (For all the idiots who buy Coulter's books...)
there have to be a good fraction that would buy "the Plumber"'s manifesto or even just go to the event for the hell of it.

Simply, you don't invite someone to be on a panel if they aren't going to draw people through their presence. Joe's been appearing at these things with enough regularity that he must be making it worth the organizer's effort to bring him into town.

That said, I did read in the Washington Post that Joe's appearance at the Border's in DC had a light turn out but I find the absence of people in almost every photo to be a bit contrived.

18. I made the same thought as you just did. But based on his sales I wouldn't be surprised.
I got the photo from the Washington Post. But who knows it might have been taken before or after the event which would explain why you only see one guy.

19. If I had the opportunity to attend such an event, I would make a day of it
and take a picture every 10 minutes to document the turn out :evilgrin:

10. If he really loves America, then he needs to be supporting the president
That's just what patriotic Americans do, especially when we have troops in the field.

12. This guy has stolen and used up the 15 minutes of half the human race
In truth, I feel guilty for even responding to this post.

This "plumber" person badly needs to be ignored and end up on the (lowest level) of the dustbin of history.
