Honest to god, how soon will “Joe the Plumber: Fighting for the American Dream” hit the bargain bin?
Joe exemplifies how one person speaking up can really make a difference. He is truly a great American. Sean Hannity, Fox News Hannity s America , Syndicated Talk Radio Joe’s story is the iconic American tale. He’s a patriot who became instantly famous for simply asking a question that millions of us wanted asked. As my friend Sean Hannity would say, Joe is a great American! Mike Gallagher, Syndicated Talk Radio Joe The Plumber – Fighting for the American Dream is the Inspiration Guide for the New Conservatism. Get ready to get Angry, Laugh out loud, Cry, Shout, and Get Involved in the Future of the United States of America!Reviews
I had some major goosebumps several times. Read this book! You will be truly inspired. –Margaret, Jenkins, KYI just finished reading Joe s book and all I can say is WOW! I love how he thinks and expresses himself. I laughed during every chapter – it was so entertaining! –Glynis, Biddeford, ME
The book is fantastic and I read it in two days. Keep working for our country Joe! –C. W., Flowery Branch, GA
You know some conservative think tank will buy a buttload of copies to give away to pump up the sales, but I seriously doubt the teabaggers are going to line up to read this ghostwritten POS. WingNutDaily‘s fawning coverage reads like a parody, however we did get an idea of Joe’s relationship with the Man Upstairs and politics.
Asked if he has plans to run for public office, he replied, “I hope not. You know, I talked to God about that and he was like, ‘No.’”UPDATE: I forgot Jesus’ General‘s amazing 5-star review:

Uhuh…Yeah, be suspicious of anything out of Flowery Branch, GA. It’s a real place. It’s NOT what it sounds like.
I hope Thomas N. Tabback,Joe’s ghost, got a nice advance, because if he’s counting on future royalties to pay the bills he’ll be very disappointed.
I don’t know,Sam the Scab’s brand of smug anti-intellectual anti-anyone-but-”us” reactionary politics is what gets GOP candidates elected.
Now I need a new keyboardWhere was my warning?
But how many of them read?Read anything? Most of them can’t even be bothered to open their Bibles (which is why they’re so ignorant of what it says).
Besides, in the last few years all but a few right-wing agitprop books have tanked (remember Mary Cheney’s?). The ones that sell are the ones by superstars like Rush and O’Reilly.
I’m sorrywhat’s the American Dream he’s allegedly fighting for?
Between this book and Palin’s,I don’t know which one end up being a bigger waste of a perfectly good forest.
Just out of curiosity, If he just does the usual echo chambering of what Rush, Hannity, et al are saying, isn’t that a form of plagiarism? ;^)
(and insipidity…)
they may not read,but all they have to do is buy them to give to each other for their coffee tables, much like they do with bibles. you know, for show and thumping, not for consumption.
Ken Hutchersonkeep an eye our for a similar volume by ken “god will get all the glory!” hutcherson.
This bookwill end up at outlet mall bookstores around the country. Just like Ann Coulter and all of the other wing nuts that decide to write a book. Believe me, I have seen them there myself.
God…I pray that you instruct more people like this knucklehead to refrain from running for public office…Amen
Joe the Plumber wrote a book?So, now he wants to go on a book signing tour instead of his regular schtick; you know, that ridiculous SciFi channel reality show – “Ghost Hunters.”
Trouble?I could not call myself ‘Kat the Lawyer’ if I did not have a law license. I wouldn’t get in trouble if, through no actions of my own, people called me that and I happened not to have said license – even though I might have a law degree. I do have both however, so I am indeed ‘Kat the Lawyer.’ I also have an architecture degree, but if I represented myself as ‘Kat the Architect,’ I’d be in a bit of of trouble because I do not have an architecture license.
Even assuming that Joe the Wurz got informally tagged as ‘Joe the Plumber’ through no fault of his own (I know…but humor me), this book is purposeful representation of him as ‘Joe the Plumber.’ Can he be prosecuted anywhere? As in – are there any states where adding ‘the Plumber’ to a purposeful reprsentation of yourself when you don’t have a plumbing license is a criminal offense?
They got the title wrong.
They inserted the word “For” accidently.
Trouble?G. Gordon Liddy and E. Howard Hunt would beg to differ.

As his last paragraph says:
A book? Really?Marketing a book, to Joe the Plumber’s followers?!
I think that’s called “drastically misreading your audience.”
Look at the sales figuresfor the “Left Behind” books. That’s a whole series devoted to the fun of watching all the nonbelievers tortured in increasingly gruesome and graphic ways (after the early phase, where the heroic fundamentalist Christians are contrasted with the universally scheming, misanthropic non-believers). Yeah, those books are fiction, but most of the readers don’t read the series as fiction.
What a waste of skin Joe isThis bottom feeder “wrote” a book? Ergh. BRB barfing…
how sad trees had to be sacrificed for Sam the not plumber’s ghost written book
Well…Advantage Dr. Weiss
Their operation was slightly more successful.
As Chevy Chase noted in the National Lampoon bit, “Mission: Impeachable”:
That at least bought Nixon enough time to sabotage the 1972 McGovern campaign.
Joe the Wurz and the John & Sarah Show?
Not so much.
that’s funny, God told me the EXACT SAME THING about Sam the nonPlumber running for office… n/t
The 5-star reviews……are almost as fabulously delicious as the 1-star reviews. One out of the 20-whatever wasn’t sarcastic.
does the book come with a box of crayons?
Perfect toilet paper material in a pinch.
God talks like a Valley Girl?
Like, wow!
Crayon? LOL!!
I wonder if Palin’s will be done with scented markers and smiley/ frownie faces… as well as little hearts over the i’s.
