So it turns out Joe the Plumber isn't even a Plumber. The guy's real name is Sam. The guy isn't really a Plumber either, and owes Ohio in back taxes. The funniest thing, After all if the liar did actually be looking into buying himself a small business, he would actually benefit from Obama's plan.

You see, Joe, I mean Sam, couldn't figure out that it isn't that his business would spend bring in 250,000 a year. Your tax break is what you put on your tax form of what you make a year, and Good old, "I hate paying taxes Sam" Would actually make far, far less than 250,000 dollars under this plan, much like Majority of small businesses.

Joe still though hates paying taxes, which we all do. But maybe us Tax Paying Americans can appreciate Joe for not paying his when he gets to drive on the same roads we do, and that we paid for.

I checked this out on Snopes...he really is a plumber, just not licensed nor belongs to the union.

^Ok, he may unclog plugged up toilets for a living. But the guy is still not a good pick for McCain to use as an example of a guy he is fighting for. Especially when he is going to Benefit more under Obama's plan, and they guy doesn't even pay taxes.

McCain tried to make a imaginary friend of a blue collar guy, and it backfired yet again. This guy is a walking hand grenade.

Now you are saying it is wrong for a person to use their middle name. How funny. The point is, why is it that anyone is still even discussing this man in the first place? Who cares?

How dare he ask a question of The One! How dare he force "spreading the wealth" out of The One's mouth! Just a guy standing in a rope line picked at random by The One - the heinousness of it all!

We must not question The One! We must not probe his socialistic ideology. And if we do, we will be duly tarred and feathered, our complete history and sordid past will be unearthed, out lives will be destroyed by the Obama-media.

Nice deflection.

"Spread the Wealth" - that's all that matters.

You neo-cons are so brainwashed it is funny. I bet everyone of you that use this "share the wealth line make well under 250,000. You probably make well under 70,000.

You most likely will make much more money under Obama's plan. But you are so blind that you still pull the republican ticket because they use you as pawns in their game.

it is really sad.
