Joe the Plumber: McCain 'appalled me'
Edited on Tue Dec-09-08 06:51 PM by ksimons
Wurzelbacher told conservative radio host Glenn Beck that he felt “dirty” after “being on the campaign trail and seeing some of the things that take place.”

Recalling a conversation he had with McCain about the $700 billion financial industry bailout in September, Wurzelbacher said: “When I was on the bus with him, I asked him a lot of questions about the bailout because most Americans did not want that to happen.”

“I asked him some pretty direct questions,” he continued. “Some of the answers you guys are gonna receive — they appalled me, absolutely. I was angry. In fact I wanted to get off the bus after I talked to him.”

3. Ha! that last sentence in the story says it ALL
While Wurzelbacher was critical of McCain during the interview, he had nothing but praise for his running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. “Sarah Palin is absolutely the real deal,” he said.

5. Me: J the P "appalls me"
In an exclusive interview, I finally copped to the above quote by me to me.
I further confessed, "Sarah Palin appalled me too. But that's off the record."

10. when asked why he didn't get off the bus

that disloyal worm said that the thought of Barack Obama becoming president scared him even more. Ha.

Notice he didn't say WHAT the answers (to the reason for the bailout)were. What a kick in the balls for McCain,

after praising Joe the tax dodging, unlicensed plumber as his 'role model'. Maybe Joe didn't get invited to the

McCain mansions for Sunday dinners or Christmas after being led to believe he was 'going to the White House' with

with McCain if his admirer had won.
