5.0 out of 5 stars Joe ain't no average American, March 2, 2009

By	Gen. JC Christian, patriot (Tremonton, UT United States) - See all my reviews

RINO spinmeisters, aided and abetted by the liberal media, have promoted Joe the Plumber as being an everyman, the archetypical "average American." This book shatters that image.

Joe the Plumber is not the "average American." He's the "average conservative," and I thank God for that.

Last year, the "average American" elected an Harvard educated constitutional law professor to the presidency. Average conservatives knew better. They rallied behind Joe the Plumber and Sarah Palin, people like ourselves; people I proudly call "mediocre Americans."

And that's why Joe is still so immensely popular. He's angry, vicious, ignorant, and intellectually incurious. He's one of us, and like us, he didn't learn about public policy and international relations at a university or from books or journals; he learned everything he needed to know by tuning into Rush, Hannity, Savage, and Ingraham.

This is a great book, one every true conservative should buy, and more importantly, read. Yes, I know that sounds like a tall order, but it's an easy read. Joe uses one and two syllable words (many of them, written forms of various grunts) almost exclusively. If I have one complaint, it's that the publisher, Pearlgate, printed it in ink rather than crayon like the original manuscript. Other than that, I think it truly is the perfect book for the average conservative.

1.0 out of 5 stars I should have known better, February 26, 2009

By	K. Gillison - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I'm embarrassed to say that I actually purchased this book. It is pure garbage. As a staunch conservative, I wish he would just stop talking and GO AWAY. We're really not in need of anymore loons like Joe the Plumber. Please do not waste your money on this because I'm sure someone will be willing to give you theirs.

1.0 out of 5 stars Puleeeeeeeez!, February 26, 2009

By	Molly A. Flannery "Mollywood" (Covington, KY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Well, I thought I'd seen everything. No siree! This book is a complete joke! Someone brought it to the office and I took it home and read it. JTP should definitely stick with plumbing. His opinions are so childish and he doesn't waste any time boring the daylights out of you. All I can say is..............Stop this craziness, Joe, or whatever your name is, Puleeeeeeeeeez!
