"'Joe the plumber' goes to war"

Hey guys.

I came across and interesting article today. It was about a U.S rookie journalist named Samuel J. Wurzelbacher who tries to justify the current war between the Israeli and Hamas.

'"Joe the plumber" has set aside his wrenches to become a rookie war correspondent, covering Israel's side of its two-week-old military offensive in Gaza.

The Ohio man, who rocketed to fame during the US presidential campaign when he asked Barack Obama about his tax plan, reported from the southern Israeli town of Sderot for the conservative pjtv.com website about rocket fire from the Gaza Strip....

THE AGE,"'Joe the plumber' goes to war", January 12, 2009 - 10:13AM

He describes himself as a 'peaceloving man' yet he supports the war, huh..? Seriously, can anyone take this guy seriously with all this hypocrisy surrounding him?

He says his reasons for doing what his doing is 'because he's "an expert on media bias"', yet all he raves on about is how the Israelis are suffering from this war and fails to ever mention the humanitarian disaster on the other side and how they are constantly being bombed by artillery shells and missiles.

'Common sense has gone out the window', evidently.

That's my rant for today. ;)
