When Are His Fifteen Minutes Up Already?!

Joe the Plumber:

"I’ll be honest with you. I don’t think journalists should be anywhere allowed war. 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 downer–and 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."

Wingnut harpie Michelle Malkin has written "If a community organizer can be president and a Saturday Night Live comedian can be a U.S. senator, why can’t a plumber be a reporter?" Well, I'll tell you why: the community organizer and the comedian both went to Harvard (respectively, Harvard Law School and Harvard University), they both can put together a coherent sentence without syntactic errors, and they're both light-years ahead of Joe in the smarts department.

Hey, Joe, ya dumbass, guess what?--you're now a journalist, G-d help us all! So take your own advice, get out of Gaza, go home, and please disappear.

The willingness of the rightwing media to prostitute itself is truly beyond belief.
