"You Mean I Wore My Reading Glasses For THIS?"

Joe the Plumber, overheard at his DC book signing while in town for CPAC.*
*OK, maybe not.

Washington Post report suggests that a certain GOP folk hero might want to think about sticking with the stinky stuff: 

Joe the Plumber (no longer a plumber; first name actually Samuel) popped into our town yesterday evening to sell his new book and to remind people that he's still a plain and simple guy. Mission accomplished, on at least one of his missions.

About 11 people wandered into the rows of seats set up hopefully in the basement of a downtown Border's bookstore to hear Joe speak. Joe addressed them from behind a lectern and with a microphone, but that seemed unnecessarily formal. 

(Editor's note: it was reported that he sold 5 books.)

More of the least here.

Although more people want to make out with a TB patient than buy this guy's book, Joe the Plumber was a featured speaker at CPAC. Here he is, covering himself in even more shit by opining that shooting members of Congress really isn't such a bad idea:
