‘Joe the Plumber’ says journalists should be ‘abolished’ from war coverage
Nick Cargo
Raw Story
Monday, Jan 12, 2008
On Sunday, conservative media barnacle and McCain campaign relic Samuel “Joe” Wurzelbacher took time out of his new job as a war correspondent for Pajamas TV to tell the very people who were filming him that they shouldn’t be allowed to cover war:
“I’ll be honest with you: I don’t think journalists should be anywhere allowed war. (sic) I mean, you guys report where our troops are at. You report what’s happening day to day. You make a big deal out of it. I think it’s asinine. You know, I liked back in World War I and World War II when you’d go to the theater and you’d see your troops on, you know, the screen and everyone would be real excited and happy for ‘em.
Now everyone’s got an opinion and wants to…down soldiers. You know, American soldiers or Israeli soldiers…I think media should be abolished from, uh, you know, reporting. You know, war is hell. And if you’re gonna sit there and say, ‘Well, look at this atrocity,’ well, you don’t know the whole story behind it half the time. So I think the media should have no business in it.”

I believe I switch back to MSM…
Joe…who is neither a plumber nor a journalist and doesn’t deserve the time of day…yet even on a news site that calls it self both serious and alternative here you have another worthless story…
Who cares what he thinks, what he says…
Aiding in giving him a platform and attention only tarnishes your reputation and that of your fellow americans…I expected more from this site…

This is a non-story, you are right. “Joe the Plumber” is just fodder that the MSM is using to keep people obsessed with trivia. Other than the zombies that get all their “news” from MSM nobody cares what John Insanes dumbass mascot has to say.

i agree !

This guy wasn’t even qualified to be a plumber much less qualified to dish opinions on the policy of journalism. Oh! But look! He’s got his IDF buddies helping him use his mouth! How darling! Weh-heh-hell! Maybe if I buddie up with some IDF guys, then perhaps I can pretend to be journalist and not have show any credentials, too! ( retch! )

Complete fcuking idiot. Likes WW1 and WW2 better!!!!!!! I imagine though he is at least semi literate and thinks Bush is Cooler than Obama.
Maybe the Brits will employ Bob the Builder to do some reporting. Imagine: ‘not being able to go for a picknick’

Or…like Jon Steward said last week…
Being out of water since the start of the conflict, the Gaza is not in need of another “journalist” but in need of a plumber…
January 12th, 2009 at 6:41 am
I think if the media did a better, more thorough, i.e. less controlled, job then we would know the whole story. This assumption by these kinds of people that wars are always good and just and governments are always right and moral is just sheer folly.
But beware, me thinks this meathead is part of a bigger plan for the “new” G.O.P. along with Sarah Palin and Arnold Schwarzenegger in order to mobilized the great brainwashed and keep the ol’ left right scam going.
Dangerous times ahead.

joe is showing his true self bart of the goon squad. When they are done with you joe don’t cry.

Dr. Weezil, I concurr. I believe no-one is allowed to step up if he or she has not first been well briefed and his or her directive has not been preset.
I think it is very clear to most people, that have there eyes open, that we have been taken hostage. The same group that shot JFK , are running this con game also and in the same way. (I wonder, does anyone know where Bush 1 was during that fatal day for JFK? with CIA at that time?)
I’d like to share with you an observation l made from a youtube video of a news cast with bill clinton defending hillary. He had a look in his eye that was straight up vengefull. He mentioned that Tim Russer, God rest his patriotic soul, had brought up a document that made hillary look bad.
And of course later Tim Russer ended up dead of the infamous “heart attack” scam.
It was a sad day when Tim Russer was taken from us, he was a good man.
But it proves that the evil forces are alive and well and there will be a whole lot more of this kind of treachery.
Enjoy your freedom while you can and I look forward to seeing you all on the other side.
Shalom

I’m not going there except to say that he makes the Illuminati’s Rush Chairman’s job considerably easier.

Many people are very confused during these Biblical prophesized end times. “Joe the Plumber” is obviously one of those who is real confused as far as the medias responsibility in a democracy to report back to the American people accurately and prcisely what our government has been up to.

This is the new system: Fluoride heads like this moron babbling crap on the big news networks and getting paid for it (probably with tax money).
Boycott and abolish. Fuck the mainstream media.

WHAT A DOUCHE
January 12th, 2009 at 10:42 am
I’m so glad to get “Joe’s” much needed opinion. This nation is lost with out you Joe! Thank you so much for your superior intellect, but I think I like the 1st amendment just the way it is. (eventhough the msm does a horrible job on reporting the real news) O and just a thought, now that the McCain campaign is over you should just stick to plumbing instead of commenting on the war. Don’t skip your day job. Or hey put your newly found celebrity career on hold until Palin runs in 2012. She just might need a VP this time around.

A perfect example of the dumbing down of Americans, he must have went to a public school.
January 12th, 2009 at 11:22 am
you notice how he mentions just US and Israel, guess the NWO is getting a lowly servant that the peple can relate to, to get their message across, who cares that Israel doesn’t let anybody including the UN in the war zone, would show everybody that Hitler’s idea’s are still alive and well today. Makes me sick, and by the way, who gives a shit what this new shill thinks about anything. Joe the plumber is a douchebag!

Don’t you see? Joe the Dumber was a PLANT from the very beginning.
January 12th, 2009 at 3:18 pm
He’s a PLANT alright. He already more than enough fertilizer. He needs water.
Why does this guy get any air time? I think it’s because he only knows the propaganda swirling around in his head, and the media monopoly is so proud of itself.
He is an example for all of us NOT!
January 12th, 2009 at 4:11 pm
Sure. If a soldier or a civilian dies in a forest, but a news organization isn’t allowed to cover it, then they didn’t die.
January 12th, 2009 at 4:15 pm
When the media showed the visual horrors of the Vietnam war, along with the body bags, U.S. streets along with streets around the world filled with millions of protesting citizens, ending the war. Citizens are the source of tax dollars, so you can’t have that. So they don’t show it.

If you want to watch unbiased coverage of The War on Gaza then watch AlJazeera English channel. You can download and install livestation at livestation dot com. They have versions for Windows, Mac OS and Linux.

I wonder if Joe got paid for regurgitating that golden nugget. After all, an unlicensed plumber might not be working much. He wouldn’t have the time, considering all his press junkets.

Sorry to correct you, but he didn’t regurgitate, he excreted….
January 12th, 2009 at 8:39 pm
This is garbage! Joe did not say that there should be NO news, only that the news should not
include information on actual military whereabouts etc. Brain-washed flouroheads!
January 12th, 2009 at 9:24 pm
joe the plumber? not named joe. not a plumber.
now pretending to be a journalist but saying journalists shouldn’t be “reporting”
AND shilling for the brutal baby murderers?

C’mon guys, lighten up! “Joe” the “Tool man” is just another whore for the neocons. Give him a break, he’s got back taxes haunting him, and the gov’t gave him a “pass” if he’ll put out for a few quarters. On pjtv, nonetheless!
P.S. what the hell is pjtv? and can I watch in my skivvies?
January 12th, 2009 at 10:30 pm
Sarah, Joe… Even the most absurd of absurdities couldn’t beat this! Absurdist drama taken to a whole new level- for reals! Moliere must be spinning in his grave.
January 12th, 2009 at 10:31 pm
Wow! Is this for f***ing real? Yes, i’ve been drinking… what’s it to you?

January 12th, 2009 at 11:00 pm
In all of this, I feel bad for plumbers. It is a good profession as it is a service to the people. However, this guy is a complete idiot. The only reason he is popular is because of the media. Joe the plumber is like a gay emo blogger, just another idiot that had a camera placed in his hand and suddenly he thinks to himself he is a professional reporter… Complete moron.
January 12th, 2009 at 11:18 pm
lol @ his rocket story. Hand made unguided rockets with 5kg (11lbs) explosives vs Made in U.S.A. Laser guided 2000lb munitions….
lol @ his media comments. He liked it when they video taped smiling soldiers at the theater of war? Does he know the countless millions that were killed? Does he remember the media covered the concentration camps and the stacked bodies of jews, gays, gyspies, and slavics? Now he doesn’t want the media to cover the treatment the Jews are giving to the Palestinians because they don’t understand? They may confuse the difference of defense versus Oppression? Oh silly me! I enjoy teachings from someone who proudly displays ignorance. Good luck, Joe, at being laughed at from one profession to the next as you fail at everything.

Jew the Plumber wasn’t even alive during World War 1. What the hell is he talking about? Is he related to W or something?

Tom, one would think so since they have the combined I.Q. of a child’s shoe size. It never ceases to amaze me how stupid the average person is; all the GOP has to do is throw out gay marriage, anything else to do with sex and/or reproduction and a dumbass fucking idiot like “Joe” and they can sway the sway the crowds. Never underestimate the stupidity of the masses!
January 13th, 2009 at 11:54 am
He should change his name for “Joe the plumber” to “Joe the Nazi stooge”
January 13th, 2009 at 3:08 pm
Obviously NOT an American!
January 13th, 2009 at 6:18 pm
One has better odds of being killed in a car accident then by one of the rockets. 16 killed in 17 days, those odds aren’t that bad. 900+ kills in 17 day would even impress Jochen Piper if he was alive, except they are mosty women and children. Now the first to mention where, when, or who he fought gets a gold star for the day.
March 15th, 2009 at 11:31 am
So let me get this straight, his name ain’t Joe and he’s not a plumber. wtf? LMFAO where do the media find these gullible idiots?
