Joe the Zionist (Plumber) "reports" from Sderot

I was amazed to hear that Joe the plumber is now for pyjama TV (http://www.pjtv.com/?cmd=page&page-id=111) "reporting" from Sderot on Newstalk yesterday.

I wondered what qualified him so uniquely for this position?

Perhaps its his unique skills acquired over many years as a plumber in dealing with large quantities of shit?

According to Joe

"I don't think journalists should be anywhere around 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 assinine

I think media should be abolished from, you know, reporting"

The people of Sderot "can't do normal things day to day" like get soap in their eyes in the shower, for fear of rockets, said America's most famous plumber, whose real name is Samuel J. Wurzelbacher.

"I'm sure they're taking quick showers," he said. "I know I would."

Wurzelbacher's status as a rookie was evident when he stood in front of a pile of spent rockets and said: "I have thousands of questions but I can't think of the right one."

Real journalists see things slightly differently :
