Joe the plumber says keep journalists away from war

Just in case you haven't yet seen,Joe the Plumber has now arrived in the Middle East and this is his latest pontification

I’ll be honest with you. I don’t think journalists should be anywhere
allowed war. I mean, you guys report where our troops are at. You report what’s
happening day to day. You make a big deal out of it. I think it’s asinine. You
know, I liked back in World War I and World War II when you’d go to the theater
and you’d see your troops on, you know, the screen and everyone would be real
excited and happy for’em. Now everyone’s got an opinion and wants to downer–and
down soldiers.

Joe the Plumber

The news that Joe the plumber is going out to the Middle East as a war reporter has provided a good deal of mirth and merriment as well as this spoof letter to Hamas form the Huffington Post team

Dear Hamas,

Allow us to restate that we deplore your actions, which have harmed both Palestinians and Israelis. However, it has come to our attention that Joe the Plumber is headed to the Middle East, to cover the war for WNWO-TV in Toledo. And while we are not technically asking you to kill Joe the Plumber (that's illegal!), we are encouraging you to reject a ceasefire until at least three rockets are fired in his direction. He's easy to spot. He literally has a skinhead, and he'll be surrounded by Israelis who will be asking themselves, "it's come to this? Israel's security is dependent on the editorial skills of Joe the Plumber?"
