Joe the freaking Plumber? If he gets captured by Hamas, do we have to take him back? Can't we tell them that we'll drop all sanctions if they'll just keep him forever?
Hasn't anyone told him that he's already at 16 minutes and 30 seconds?

Who knows? Maybe he will be good, in an entertaining but not fact-filled kind of way. TV news is all crap anyway. He won't be any worse.

It's true that he might end up not sucking, but to say that he couldn't be worse is quite a stretch: he could be much much worse. Do you have any idea how bad that could be? :p

It's an NBC affiliate reporting that Joe's going overseas... to report for Pajamas Media, not any TV outlet.
I'm 100% for citizen journalism because professional journalism is in a shambles, but this is something else entirely. Not sure what. Joe can give us some information, but he's no Michael Totten or Mike Yon, who are really smart guys with some decent background to understand where they are and what's going on. Those are citizen journalists with better cred than professional journalists. If I want a report on Gazan plumbing Joe might be of interest, otherwise he's just some guy. |

Beat up by the lefties?
What planet do you inhabit again? I love how a guy who was elected president gets nothing but "boy he's gonna suck I know it and I know it and I know it even before he starts" but some doofus who thinks he's going to be a journalist without any experience other than shit-pipes gets accolades from you how great he will be. To me it only proves how dumb our society is when doling out "celebrity" status. Sheep. Bahhhh. No, that's not fair to sheep. They're smarter than a lot of folks.
