Joe the Plumber Asks a Question

Joe the Plumber goes to Israel and insists to a flock of media that he is not the story.

Ask this chap (pointing to his handler), if you want a story, says he, as the Pajamas Media camera rolls.

Then Joe the Plumber asks a Reuters guy whether he thinks that Israel has a right to defend itself. The reporter responds, yes.

“Have you said it on air,” asks Joe the Plumber?

I’m just a reporter, is the reply.

It’s the liberal way. Don’t look at me, I’m just a reporter. Nothing I can do about it, old chum.

Yeah, you won’t want to do anything to risk your career in media would you?

It’s easy to be a liberal media guy and file sob stories about the latest fashionable victim. It’s easy to afflict the comfortable and comfort the afflicted when you are runninga story using the standard liberal template on a certified liberal protected class.

But when the subject is the hypocrisy of liberalim, then our brave liberal media guy runs for the exit.

That means that our liberal media friends, day by day, miss the great story of our time: the cruelty, the corruption, and the injustice of our liberal political power.
