Yesterday, the ubiquitous Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher — aka "Joe the Plumber" and "Joe the War Correspondent" — became "Joe the Economist" when he went and spoke to a House GOP breakfast on the economic recovery package. The New York Daily News caught with Wurzelbacher and asked about the meeting:
"It's not politically incorrect to say you're Republican or conservative," Joe said. "They need to dig their heels in and fight for what needs to be done." […]
One thing that needs to be done, he said, is killing this stimulus package, because it's just another example of "American government" — Republicans and Democrats — "kicking our butts left and right." He also called it welfare.
