Joe "The Plumber" Wurzelbacher sounds like a jackass.

Mr Wurzelbacher said Mr Obama's plan to raise taxes to redistribute money was "kind of a socialist viewpoint".

"Robin Hood stole from greedy rich people and redistributed it to the peasants, so to speak, so if he's calling us peasants, I kind of resent that," he said."


He's worried that Obama would tax his prospective business to the tune of 39% instead of the current 36%. So, shouldn't he see himself as one of the "greedy rich people" Robin had to steal from?

See, in America, right now we're stealing from the poor still to give to the rich, from whom some of it ltrickle down, back to us. Of course, if they didn't take it in the first place... o_O

Joe is a jackass. Yep. One reason more to leave Ohio.
