Joe The Plumber: I Would Never Let "Queers" Near My Children

Joe The Plumber: I Would Never Let "Queers" Near My Children

Joe the Plumber, aka Samuel Wurzelbacher, sat down for an lengthy interview with Christianity Today to discuss his views on the future of the Republican party. Wurzelbacher took the opportunity to speak out against gay marriage, which he says is wrong. The unlikely conservative spokesman went so far as to say he doesn't allow openly gay people "anywhere near" his children.

The word "queer," Wurzelbacher noted, "means strange and unusual."

Christianity Today: In the last month, same-sex marriage has become legal in Iowa and Vermont. What do you think about same-sex marriage at a state level?

Wurzelbacher: At a state level, it's up to them. I don't want it to be a federal thing. I personally still think it's wrong. People don't understand the dictionary--it's called queer. Queer means strange and unusual. It's not like a slur, like you would call a white person a honky or something like that. You know, God is pretty explicit in what we're supposed to do--what man and woman are for. Now, at the same time, we're supposed to love everybody and accept people, and preach against the sins. I've had some friends that are actually homosexual. And, I mean, they know where I stand, and they know that I wouldn't have them anywhere near my children. But at the same time, they're people, and they're going to do their thing.

In the vein of George W. Bush and Michael Steele, Joe the Plumber also indicated that he wouldn't run for public office until the Lord had given him a cue. "God hasn't said, 'Joe, I want you to run.' I feel more important to just encourage people to get involved, one way or another. If I can inspire some leaders, that would be great." Joe added: "I don't know if I want to be a leader."

you will never have to make.

Joe is so beyond a moronic right wing mascot, there is just something about him that really angers me, so much so that I can't appreciate how much damage he does to his own party.

people. we had eight years of that lack of curiosity and general intelligence.... do we really want to repeat that!!! it really scares me that there are people who want someone like palin to be in charge.

No one should let their elected officials anywhere near that moron either...

... To give your kids a tongue bath.

Who knows what he would try to justify in the name of his "faith?"

Note to Joe: most gay people wouldn't want to be around your kids. I can only imagine how ill behaved they are. :eyes:

Oh, and it sure sounds like you've really wrapped your arms around accepting people. (As long as they're white Republicans.) That's Christianity for you! (Not.)

momentous subject. :puke:

I hope a bunch of gay people show up at his house and sing all night long so he has to come outside and make some kind of contact with them to shut them up. Complete utter tool.

Make a stand, clean up after their own people.

Since he seems so fearful of them. He is a complete homophobic jerk.

Except he meant 'away'. Here we go again.

for the GOP it truly shows how far they have fallen. The guy is dumber than a box of rocks.

The mind boggles at the tripe that comes out of his mouth.

"I've had some friends that are actually homosexual." Actually??? Really really really?? Wow, I'm like actually so not impressed.

that's probably what the mother of those kids told his ass.

I would never let "Honkies" near my children.

It's a great illustration of the victim mentality these doorknobs have.

People should make sure you don't come anywhere near any kids ever. You stench creates toxic air.

you are not now nor will you ever be a leader. What you are though is a walking talking compendium of bigotry and stupidity. And if you're not sure what compendium means go look it up in the dictionary which you seem to be so fond of bringing into your conversations.

so I've been told. Is it possible that "Joe" is God's gift to Democrats?

:shrug:

he says, hey we're friends and all but stay away from my kids. And they say, ok friend that's cool, no hard feelings.

Joe--you're not a leader. Go away! I don't want you anywhere near my children.

That eliminates you, asshole!

...insignificant next to the power of the Dumb!

I hope for the very worst for that pig bigot.

:eyes: :sarcasm: What a fucking douchebag

Isn't there a Plumber's Monthly magazine that wants to talk to this man?

of hypocrites ..hiding behind their so called Dogma.

Obviously not. Not every Christian publication is by and for raging fundamentalists. Some, like Christianity Today, are moderately conservative but open and fair to differing views. Others, like the Jesuit-run America, lean noticably to the left.

CT's coverage of President Obama has generally been fair, and sometimes quite positive.

http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2006/september/4.28.html

http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2008/januaryweb-only/104-32.0.html

this is the 'christianity' they promote? Hate speech as a way to chit chat? This is moderate religion, calling people queers?

Joe the Plumber said it. By this standard, The Nation is a right wing mag because it quotes Bush, Rumsfeld, and Cheney in articles.

And you can toxx me on that.

He's such a hateful piece of dogshit I'm surprised Satan hasn't claimed his soul already.

That is the title of a post I found on another progressive blog.

This is a must read. Hilarious!!!

http://progressnotcongress.org/blog/?p=687

use God and Jesus' names to cover their perversions.

God is Love and Peace and the same for Jesus.

I suggest Bristol Palin or Michelle Bachman...

Why do they talk to this fucker, he is uneducated, lacks commonsense, he is a liar and a bigot...oh wait, that is everything they look for in a spokesperson..NEVER MIND.

sure you do

May his shit come to life, and kiss him. Although that would be quite the circle jerk.

How can anyone look up to Joe?

More importantly, perhaps, why is Christianity Today interviewing that low life?

So wouldn't that mean he doesn't have custody of kids and therefore wouldn't be able to keep everyone away from them all (most) of the time?

with a dumbass parent like him, and his dumbass genes.

It makes me cringe and glare at them every time they use it, but they continue anyways, unaware that their words are so hateful and unmindful of my admonitions.

Sometimes the hate doesn't rub off....it didn't in my case.

GRAB YOUR CHILDRENS AND RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!11!1!!!

It would be the story about a guy who is not even named Joe who is not a licensed plumber and how he makes an ass out of himself every time he opens his piehole.

Pure. Comedy. Gold.

Considering that a full ~66% now favor gay marriage in the US, he is contributing to the marginalizing of the republican party with every word that he speaks.

I hope he continues to let America know how he feels, LOL!

Thanks for correcting my entire life of learning and experience there Joe

Joe believes "honky" is a terrible slur, but that "queer" is an accurate and value-neutral term.

I really didn't need ANOTHER reason to hate this Douche Bag but he went and gave it to me. Seriously why does this loser keep getting press?

:thumbsup:

Stupid!

There used to be some attempt to find real Christians to interview for this type of magazine, right? Now I'm not sure even they know one when they see one. The ones lining up to be "famous" for being "Christians" like this asswipe, make my head explode.

Ugly, bigoted, racist morons like you are the ones who could really do damage to a child by imparting your idiotic views on things to them.

whether or not to run for public office.

That's very impressive support if the call does come in.

Stay close to the phone, Joe. Your moment of glory is nigh.

:hide:

The things you shouldn't let near your children would be things like:

rattlesnakes.
angry polar bears.
angry grizzly bears.
vampires.
Godzilla.
U.S. foreign policy under Bush.
U.S. domestic policy under Bush.
any barking televangelist.
a swarm of hornets.
any FOX News commentator.
giant fireballs from outer space.
anything on McDonald's menu.
etc.

Newsflash: the bigot percentage of the electorate is declining rapidly.

Joe the Plumber quote of the week. :rofl:

Oh, in case it ever comes up(not that it would), tell JTP I'm queer.

their vision of America. Please, please, please. Him, Bachmann, and Palin. Let them get out there and keep on talkin'.

The national attention span is about a nanosecond and someone this devoid of...well...anything can still draw interest? The stoooopid is pervasive as hell.

McCain does suck as much as Rove, Atwater, shrub, Raygun, Darth Cheney and the rest of the gang. Anyone that introduces Palin and SammieJo in to the national discussion and would put Gramm in charge of the economy is a total fucking evil asshole. I wouldn't put Palin on the ticket to save the family jewels and if I find he had anything to do with Bachman then I'll elevate him to Sith Lord.

I'm ever so sure the American Nazi Party - I mean Republicans - will denounce him and quit putting a guy who spews blatant hate out there as their spokesman

...he just has to keep proving it.

doesn't that also make Sam, aka Joe the FAKE plumber, "queer?"

Are they going to kiss Palin's ass, too? Maybe they will ask her about that witchcraft shit...

Joe is the leader of the anti-civil rights group. If you oppose equality, you stand with Joe the Plummber. The end.

I would sooner let a 'queer' with my kids (if I was responsible and patient enough to have any) than a Catholic priest or a distant uncle.

This guy is a special kind of stupid....sort of a California beauty queen kind of dumb.

...and if he has a shred of decency, he'd answer my prayers and give Joe a sign to run for president.

"God hasn't said, 'Joe, I want you to run.' I feel more important to just encourage people to get involved",....

So Joe currently sees himself as the cheerleader?

He's downright creepy.

And may he be fatally impaled by a plunger.

I hope this guy is on the ticket in 2012.

The Moose Hunter & The Plumber 2012

I don't let right-wing lunatics anywhere near my kids....

So I guess we're even on that on.
