Greetings friend. I wonder if you have misunderstood the purpose of our forum? We welcome visitors wishing to dedicate themselves to memorizing and living in strict accordance with the exact Word of God.

That said, this unearthly necrobump from 2009 does provide a moment to reflect on another old friend Joe The Plumber. Whatever happened to him? Let's take a look:

I'm sorry, but "Wurzelbacher" is not an American name. How could someone with such an unpronounceable name ever be used as a conservative campaign prop?!

Plumbing credentials

As part of the background on McCain's use of "Joe the Plumber" during the 2008 campaign, several media outlets researched his professional plumbing credentials. One Toledo Blade article stated: "Mr. Wurzelbacher said he works under Al Newell's license, but according to Ohio building regulations, he must maintain his own license to do plumbing work. He is also not registered to operate as a plumber in Ohio, which means he's not a plumber." "Mr. Joseph [business manager of the local union] said Mr. Wurzelbacher could only legally work in the townships, but not in any municipality in Lucas County or elsewhere in the country." Wurzelbacher later stated that he was no longer employed at Newell.

Wurzelbacher was not a member of the United Association of Plumbers and Pipefitters (the national plumbers' union) and never served an apprenticeship.

Then there's a large gap.

However, by scouring Fox News I found out that in 2018 Wurzelbacher was an executive of Swiftshield, a company that makes steel barricades to protect students in the event of a mass shooting.

There is no other information.

Re: SARAH PALIN: JOHN BIRCH SOCIETY MEMBER!

Brother Jeb,

Is this really what we want to be telling America about Sister Sarah Palin? I mean this shows her in a rather liberal light. I just wish we could get her to come out for a TRUE Conservative position on the issues.

As mayor of Wasilla, Sarah Palin changed the policy of the police department so that they would start charging rape victims for their own rape kits.

Now THAT is something we need to emphasize. Sarah Palin has shown her true self - a fiscal conservative. Besides, if those young tarts would stop running around in public in tight blue jeans and miniskirts, they wouldn't have gotten raped in the first place. If they don't want to get raped, they should just stay home and study their Bible.

As everyone knows, rape is God's punishment against slutty behavior. These young women need to be sat down and told that if they get raped, it's their own stupid fault. Why should taxpayers have to pick up the tab whenever these young sluts go around in public luring men to ravish them?

We really need to point this out to voters. It would be a win-win situation for the Sarah Palin campaign and Alaska's beleagured taxpayers.

Just say "No!" to taxpayer-funded rape kits. With a slogan like that, the Palin campaign just could not fail. It's a sure-fire formula for success if there ever was one.

Yours in christ,
Brother Buford

Re: SARAH PALIN: JOHN BIRCH SOCIETY MEMBER!

I've had it out for the John Birch Society after they deemed me a "dangerous extremist, detrimental to the cause" after I "assaulted" Janet Reno.

The year was 1993, Mrs. Doubtfire was number one at the box office and I tried to pull off Janet Reno's wig to prove that she was actually a man. It was an honest mistake that could have happened to any of us. I was also using JBS funds to spearhead a campaign to funnel crack cocaine into inner city preschools.

The John Birch Society: All talk and no action. If you want a real Conservative group look no further than the Montana militia. Where else can you speculate which elected officials are transvestite homosexual Communist secret Muslims that conduct back-alley abortions in their Washington offices, stash illegal weapons-grade plutonium in an aircraft hanger covered in a camouflage canopy, have a group Bible study and then gangrape a 15 year old cheerleader over the hood of Big Ray-Ray the Pedophile's (Joe the Plumber's brother-in-law that he doesn't talk about) Chevy?

If you think the John Birch Society does nothing but hunt for hidden communists in power, you're wrong. They also...

Uhmmm, YEAH! what Jeb said

[Jeb Stuart Thurmond]

Re: SARAH PALIN: JOHN BIRCH SOCIETY MEMBER!

If you think the John Birch Society does nothing but hunt for hidden communists in power, you're wrong. They also look for secret Nazis in power:

By the fall of 2005 we had U.S. DoD apparatchik Debra Cagan showing up to a Hungarian embassy party dressed up as a real dominatrix...

Would it be too much of us to ask as her employer, "Debra, is it really good judgment to accept this medal, while dressed up like a Nazi boy toy?"

...Like words, symbols and fashion do make statements.

...Yes, upon close observation, the Patriarchal Cross used in the Hungarian Coat of Arms that is designed into the Commander's Cross is the same popular Patriarchal Cross...used to designate the 33rd degree level in Free Masonry.

They have a point - is that Condoleesa Rice or a member of some Emo boy-band singing "the black parade"? Add the freemasonery connections and it looks like Sarah Palin has more to worry about that Putin rearing his head over Alaska.

Re: SARAH PALIN: JOHN BIRCH SOCIETY MEMBER!

Strangely, when asked what magazines and newspapers she reads, she just says "most of them" and doesn't mention the JBS magazine. Political correctness has gone too far when one can't proudly proclaim that they get all their news from the John Birch Society!

COURIC: And when it comes to establishing your world view, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read before you were tapped for this — to stay informed and to understand the world?
PALIN: I’ve read most of them again with a great appreciation for the press, for the media —
COURIC: But what ones specifically? I’m curious.
PALIN: Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years.
COURIC: Can you name any of them?
PALIN: I have a vast variety of sources where we get our news.

Re: SARAH PALIN: JOHN BIRCH SOCIETY MEMBER!

There is certainly no doubt that the John Birch Society was right about a number of things. I question whether or not Sarah Palin really believes all their positions when it comes to Jews, however. Consider that Republicans currently express more hopeful and enlightened views. We have to look no further than Godly Republican Ann Coulter in her belief that Jews can be perfected.

Re: SARAH PALIN: JOHN BIRCH SOCIETY MEMBER!

By quoting Mr. Westbrook Pegler, Sarah Palin was giving us a "dog whistle", that is, a message of support that only we alone will notice. I hope she gives us some more Pegler quotes, here's a few for her to choose from:

On Robert Kennedy:

He wished in 1965 that "some white patriot of the Southern tier will spatter his spoonful of brains in public premises before the snow flies." (J. Sharlet, "Paradise Shot to Hell: The Westbrook Pegler Story", in Boob Jubilee, Ed. T. Frank & D. Mulcahey, W.W. Norton & Company, 2003, p. 358)

On the Jews:

Jews, he said, could not be the victims of persecution because persecution "connotes injustice...They are, instead, enduring retaliation, or punishment." (D. Levitas, The Terrorist Next Door: The Militia Movement and the Radical Right, Macmillan, 2002, p. 71.)

He advanced the theory that American Jews of Eastern European descent were "instinctively sympathetic to Communism, however outwardly respectable they appeared." (The New York Times, Obituary: "Free-Swinging Critic," June 25, 1969, p. 43).

He had a habit of calling Jews "geese" because they, in his words, hiss when they talk, gulp down everything before them, and foul everything in their wake. (Diane McWhorter, "Revisiting the controversial career of Westbrook Pegler," Slate, March 4 2004).

March 12 1945; In response to the Fair Employment Practices bill of New York State, which forbade Jews and other minorities from being restricted by quota in New York City medical establishments, Pegler attacked the new law as "pernicious heresy against the ancient privilege of human beings to hate." (R. Kahn, The Era, 1947-1957, University of Nebraska Press, 2002, p. 44)

On the Civil Rights movement:

In 1963, less than 3 months after Martin Luther King Jr., delivered his famous "I Have a Dream Speech," he wrote in a column, "[It is] clearly the bounden duty of all intelligent Americans to proclaim and practice bigotry." (D. Levitas, The Terrorist Next Door: The Militia Movement and the Radical Right, Macmillan, 2002, p. 71)

In 1936, he wrote his famous lines, "I am a member of the rabble in good standing." in a column written in praise of a California lynch mob that killed two... (Diane McWhorter, "Revisiting the controversial career of Westbrook Pegler," Slate, March 4 2004).

On the labor movement:

He once exhorted citizens to join strikebreakers "in the praiseworthy pastime of batting the brains out of pickets." (J. Sharlet, "Paradise Shot to Hell: The Westbrook Pegler Story", in Boob Jubilee, Ed. T. Frank & D. Mulcahey, W.W. Norton & Company, 2003, p. 358)

On Roosevelt:

He wrote that "It [was] regrettable that Giuseppe Zangara hit the wrong man when he shot at Roosevelt in Miami." (W. E. Leuchtenburg, The FDR Years, Columbia University Press, 1997, p. 316).
