We the SheepleWell, that’s what this dingus gets for not carrying around a pocket-sized copy of The Communist Manifesto, which was pretty clearly published in 1848, MANY MOONS after the drafting of the Constitution. At a recent appearance in Wausau, Wisconsin, he said that the Founding Fathers “knew socialism doesn’t work. They knew communism doesn’t work.” On the other hand, the Founding Fathers knew two things did work: leeching, and slavery. [Wausau Daily Herald]

Will someone please ask the Federalist Society whether the founding fathers knew that Joe the Unlicensed (thanks dijetlo)does not work?

memzilla June 26, 2009 at 11:18 am

Considering the event at which he spoke was called “Pints and Politics,” I think that alcohol had the louder voice.

And since the “rental” of alcohol provides him with his (unlicensed) living, he does have a dog in this fight. Unfortunately, this dog is a lobotomized Pomeranian with a drooling problem: you know how dogs look like their owners.

Clearly Joe is referring to François-Noël Babeuf, French revolutionary and leader of the Conspiracy of the Equals in 1797, which many historians consider the first communist movement. Of course it Babeuf never used the terms socialist or communist and his ideas still come years after the Constituion. So I guess Joe is still a gigantic and embarrising retard.

This is the most ridiculous case of misplaced celebrity ever. I mean seriously, people actually want their pictures taken with him?! I had thankfully almost completely forgotten about the whole 2008 election business which bothered us all for so long, that is until the Ice Queen recently returned to the spotlight with her successful campaign to get David Letterman fired. I seriously had not thought of her in months, and was truly sad to be reminded of her. That goes double for JtheP. 2008 is OVER, NOBODY remembers those characters who lost it, YOU ARE EVEN MORE FORGETTABLE THAN THEY ARE, GO AWAY.

Shouldn’t that not-Joe the not-Plumber poster read “It’s About US the People,” not “We the People”? I’m sure he’d want it to be grammatically correct and all.

Seriously, though, won’t someone PLEASE make him go away?

After speaking, Wurzelbacher signed autographs and posed for pictures with the crowd.

Lionel Hutz Esq. June 26, 2009 at 11:55 am

Joe is actually right about this. The Founders were true, red-blooded Americans. It is just a shame that Christians were all flaming pinkos:

And all those who had believed were together, and had all things in common; and they began selling their property and possessions, and were sharing them with all, as anyone might have need. Acts 2:44-45

Dreadful Gate June 26, 2009 at 11:56 am

Joe who? Did I miss something?

Guppy06 June 26, 2009 at 11:58 am

The Founders set up the presidency and senate to be elected only by indirect means, wisely setting up a system where the Joes of the world couldn’t find a soapbox.

Joe has sucessfully decoded the hidden messages in Constitution using the secret Masonic ring and John Adams’ toenail pick. Not only does it say communism doesn’t work but it accurately predicts the 1969 Mets world series victory (along with the invention of baseball), hurricane Katrina and Gov. Sanford’s hiking adventure. Laugh all you want while Joe buys GM stock in anticipation of their 2012 merger with Toyota. And if Jerry Bruckheimer’s reading, the screenplay rights are available.
