1. Is there a transcript for those of us sans audio?

[Amerigo Vespucci]

2. Not that I could see...n/t

[HopeHoops]

3. I've got audio - I just don't want to hear the fuckwad's voice.

I'll read passages of his stupidity just for the laughs, but clicking on the link would only tell CNN someone was interested in hearing the asshole.

4. Uh, did he?

Or is he one of these chickenhawks who "serve" by "fighting the war here at home" against the "liberals"?

8. From The Tufts Daily, November 11, 2008: "An interview with Joe the Plumber"

Apparently, according to his claims, he "served his country" by teaching plumbing in the Air Force, which gives him the right in 2009 to equate homosexuality with pedophilia.

Question: There has been some confusion amongst the media with regards to your name and occupation. Could you provide some clarification?

Answer: All right. Well, my name is Samuel J. Wurzelbacher. I go by middle name Joseph and shorten it to Joe and have gone by that since I was born and have always been called Joe. With regards to my occupation, I was a plumber in the military for the United States Air Force. I used to teach plumbing in the military. A lot of times the licenses that are obtained in the military world do not transfer over into the civilian world.

There is also a little bit more to the story. I have a son who is 13 and have made sure that he was my number-one priority. Wherever my ex-wife traveled, I moved in order to be closer to my son. On my last move, I moved with my ex-wife from the state of Arizona to Ohio so my son and I could be together. I attended school for three-and-a-half years when the school went out of business. I had enough on-the-job training as far as time and service to master as a plumber … So I am a plumber. Am I licensed in the state of Ohio as a plumber? Absolutely not. I have tried to clear that up on a lot of radio and television stations.

5. Served or been serviced? n/t

6. Why is Joy Behar giving this guy air time?

He's a nobody. He's less than zero. It has been a couple of months since I've heard any thing from or about him and she lets him back on the airwaves.

Joy spare us this insufferable fool please! Let him slip back into the oblivion that he richly deserves.

7. God, he is so dumb he doesn't even know he's dumb!

I wonder if he knows half the words Joy used. Words like "vilify"

9. I thought he was replaced with Bob the Builder
