TOLEDO, Ohio — Joe The Plumber is putting down his wrenches and picking up a reporter's notebook.
The Ohio man who became a household name during the presidential campaign says he is heading to Israel as a war correspondent for the conservative Web site pjtv.com.
Samuel J. Wurzelbacher (WUR'-zuhl-bah-kur) says he'll spend 10 days covering the fighting.
He tells WNWO-TV in Toledo that he wants to let Israel's "'Average Joes' share their story."
After having read that post and laughed my ass off, I had to wonder if this this post from Paul Mulshine directed at prominent pajamasmedia blogger Glenn Reynolds was any motivation:
Get off your fat ass, Glenn, and go cover the war.
PRICELESS!
