Joe the Journalist?

It seems we may NEVER get rid of our friend Joe.  He now has a new job for which he is unqualified and at which he is inept:  Journalism.  That's right.  You read correctly.  Journalism.  pjtv.com has decided to send Joe over to Gaza to cover the recent events between Israel and the Palestinians.  Apparently the Republicans have completely gone off the deep end.  This Joe "the plumber Wurzelbacher is one of the most ignorant individuals that have been in the spotlight in quite some time.  What insight can he possibly have into the conflict in Gaza?  I would have to say this is a new low.  I then heard on Anderson Cooper's program that he was quoted as saying that he did not believe the media should be covering the conflict.  Seems like a contradiction to me.  I think what he really meant was that everyone should support what Israel is doing without any question just because certain people think we should.  But then, Joe obviously isn't the kind to think for himself....
