Actually, if he's working under a licensed plumber, he's in his apprenticeship. When you go down to test for your license, you have all the stuff filled out by the plumber you've been working under. Basically, saying he hasn't completed his apprenticeship is a technical observation: If you haven't received your license, then you haven't completed your apprenticeship.



Which typically means he doesn't do state or federal work because thats' the only plumbing job you can get, typically, as a union plumber. You really close a lot of doors being a union tradesman just to be able to do government work. (The benefit is that government work pays wonderfully.)



If you believe the Obama isn't going back on his word as Clinton and H.W. did, then he's probably right. Two guys making $250K is pretty optimistic, but not impossible. If he specialized in retail sales of equipment he's installing, he could do it.


I think the attempt to smear this guy is a demonstration of how disgusting the left is.
I wouldnt go that far, but I do stand corrected. On behalf of The Times's fact-checkers and myself, thank you for the clearly-expressed information.

Do you guys/gals even know what taxes currently are? Do you know what "letting them expire" means?

You know, between Joe Sixpack and Joe The Plumber I can't help but wonder when they're going to talk about people not named Joe. I'm James, dammit. What are you clowns going to do for me?

But not the Democrats...........

so you are slamming your own corrupt party...........


Cleared of wrongdoing? Don't REWRITE HISTORY, fella! Tell us about the CENSURE.

McCain is the only major Presidential candidate in U.S. history to have been rebuked, censured or otherwise admonished after a Congressional ethics investigation.

You know what, you obviously don't have to answer that. I just think it's kind of interesting that you would say:

I hope your kids learn all about two mommies.. and it drives you absolutely insane....
Just seems kind of like an agenda to me. Something that could really only come from a self-hating mean-spirited person like yourself.
