The new Websters Picture Dictionary will feature Joe's image in the dictionary next to "self serving moron"?

Someone needs to hand him the plunger.

BFD- Look at it this way, he's not peddling kiddie porn on the internets.

Do you really think the IRS is a fantastic institution?  Read up on the fair tax a little before you crap on alternate ideas.  Not saying it's a panacea, but our convouted tax codes are a disaster.

Are you buying into that Conman routine? The guy needs to find something to do other than suck off Wingnutia's tit. He needs to pay some taxes or else get caught "trading out" loser propaganda for "plumbing". Do not be surprised if he does get caught peddling kiddie porn on the internets.

Taxes can be designed to grow this country and to give individuals incentives to save.

You weren't whining about the tax code the past 8 years.

I was whining about the tax code for the last 8 years and will continue the next 4 obama's in office.

IRS is the mafia without the accent.

Actually I was whining about it...eh, complaining is more like it.  I also bemoaned a GOP-led legislature spending money like drunken liberals.

Hey, as long as JTP isn't on the gov't dole and he's not hurting anyone I don't care what he does to make money.  I'm not going to pay .99 to call his 900 number, but if others more "patriotic" than myself want to, go ahead.

LOL, that site is awesome.  Pay $1 to vote to get rid of the IRS.  Seriously though, most of the tax information for most wage earners isn't all that complicated.  If I didn't buy or sell stocks, (which a lot of people don't) and didn't have a secondary business income.  I could finish my taxes in 15 minutes no problem.  Now once you start throwing in exceptions based on X and Y and if you started here or there then you have issues.

Pretty funny irony though when the treasury secretary claims to even be baffled by Turbo Tax. Sure, we believe that's what happened Timmay!

The dictionary already has an image of a self-serving moron, Cindy Sheehan.

Anyway, why are you and others so afraid of Joe the Plumber? I think you folks obsess over him because of a bizzare man crush.

Joe the Schill,  I will schill for anyone who will pay me.   He seems to love to suck the tit of anyone who will let him.

Joe's 15 minutes were up quite awhile ago, and while I don't care what he does, I do find this site hilarious. Good for him. Making money from stupid people, it's the American way since JT Barnum.

Things like this site go to show why casinos don't really harm communities, idiots will ALWAYS find a way to blow their money. It doesn't matter if it's a dollar slot or a dollar to a shady website, they will find a way.

Your point is significant. The IRS is merely the collector. They didn't write the tax code. Kind of like the Mafia didn't invent crime, they just excel at practicing it.
