Oh John McCain, Look What You've Done!

God save the Middle East. When John McCain unleashed "Joe the Plumber" in the midst of the presidential debates, who would have thought that months later, "Joe" (who is not a licensed plumber and whose first name is actually Samuel) would have opinions that matter.

Apparently, conservative blog pjtv.com thinks "Joe" has a few more things for the world to hear. So, in their infinite wisdom, "Joe" is heading over to Israel to cover the current conflict in Gaza as a war correspondent in the Middle East for the blog.

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."

Wurzelbacher gained attention during the final weeks of the campaign when he asked Barack Obama about his tax plan.

He later joined Republican John McCain on the campaign trail. At one stop, he agreed with a McCain supporter who asked if he believed a vote for Obama was a vote for the death of Israel.
