'Joe the Plumber' speaks in Moore
The Norman Transcript ^ | January 29, 2012 | Andrew W. Griffin

MOORE, Okla. - While he wasn’t carrying a wrench and a plunger, Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher — a.k.a. “Joe the Plumber” — offered a pumped-up Tea Party crowd in Moore a lot of common sense and “Average Joe” ideas on a blustery Friday night.

Sponsored by the Oklahoma City, Norman and Grady County Tea Parties, along with the Bott Radio Network, Wurzelbacher spoke before a large dinner crowd of Republican and conservative activists at First Baptist Church of Moore as part of the “Renovate Washington, Not the Constitution” political event, as a way to kick off the 2012 election season.

Wurzelbacher, 38, looking casual in his Carhartt jacket and jeans was in Oklahoma as part of a construction project at Camp Crossway, a Christian camp for Native American children in Pawnee County.

He was invited to Moore to speak to the fired-up Tea Partiers about his political philosophy, his run for U.S. Congress and his famous encounter with Barack Obama over three years ago.

What the heck does this mean? Just because he was down on his luck for a while - thanks to the regime, is a very nasty comment.

It means he was able bodied and elected to get on the Food Stamps before becoming famous in 2008.

Cite truth please. If I remember correctly, he was working at he time and thinking about owning his own business. I also remember that someone in the Strickland administration illegally accessed his personal records. I sure don’t remember anything about him ELECTING to go on food stamps.
