CNN's Rick Sanchez trying to make fun of Joe the Plumber perhaps more excruciatingly annoying than Joe the Plumber himself

Rick Sanchez should just leave the Joe the Plumber call-outs to the Joe the Plumber call-out professionals. Ahem. Case in point...

He didn't need to read it in staccato; he made himself sound as stupid as Joe. I guess Sanchez missed the irony of JTP speaking out against war reporting while he is actually filing a report as a war reporter. And he also didn't repeat my fav part of JTP's report about abolishing war reporting and instead relying on the gov't to give us accurate information. Great idea lol!

I really don't see a problem with this call out. It needed to be said on a network like CNN. Clearly the disdain he has for Joe, is the same you or Wonkette has, only less childish I suppose.

No I am not calling you out on Joe, I really really really dislike the guy. He is an opportunist and taking advantage of what the Republicans did with their losing campaign. Although I hate him and wish he would disappear, who can blame him for capitalizing on it? People giving him air time or blog time just feed the beast that he is riding atop on. Maybe it is late, and you are just quoting a friend, but the response is the same.

I didn't get that Rick was making fun of "Joe." I think he's pissed off as hell and was spitting bullets. Good on him! "Joe's" a twerp and needed called out.

Cajun, the main difference is he made fun of JTP without resorting to profanity.... which in many cases gives one's insults a little more "sting"
