“Joe Da Pluma” Gets Cheesed

On FOX News Joe the plumber vented his frustration at the media for turning his life into an hourly news bite.  He hates that the media and its endless investigations of him and his life.  I can understand the frustration, but would it not be better to vent at the person who introduced him to the media?  That would John McCain.  McCain’s continuous invocation of Joe’s name has made him an irresistable target for the media.  So I ask why not place the blame where the blame belongs–in the lap of McCain.

The problem I have with Joe is that he is spouting the McCain line of socialism and crap, which leads me to believe that he is on the payroll of the McCain campaign.  As long as McCain keeps his name on his lips and Joe keeps going on FOX News and bitching about the media, the more irresistible he is to be scrutinized.  But that may be the plan, to make him look like he is being persecuted, the poor pitiful common man being slapped around by the mean liberal media.  It gives McCain more air time and Joe gets his bills paid, not a bad gig if you can get it.
