Joe the Plumber competes in DC's Funniest Celebrity contest with that Larry the Cable Guy plaid shirt thing going on. Joe got flushed by unlikely comedian - Obama's nerdy economic czar Austan Goolsbee.
Joe got a few laughs:
Here's Goolsbee: "We packed up like the Beverly Hillbillies and came to Washington." Sure. With your collection of corn cob pipes.
"The president is still the same regular guy he was in Chicago." Yeah.
On the similaries between him and Obama as two skinny guys with funny names: "I'm not saying we were separated at birth in a village in Kenya."
Kenya? Not Hawaii? Freudian slip fuel for the Birthers!
"I would like to say something about our major banks. Ingrateful bastards...bankrupting your grandma."
On Wall Street bonuses: "They've learned important lessons like spend your bonus quickly."
Goolsbee took a shot at Fox News: "We all want our kids to be educated. Think of somebody in today's world in the 21st century. You have no skills, you have no education, you have nothing. What future do you possibly have? Fox News correspondent..."
On Republican presidential contenders 2012: "They might want to just pick somebody who was against Obama from the start. Who has had it out for him for some time... Hillary Clinton."
On Sarah Palin: "By 2012 there will be a warrant out for her arrest."
Some of Goolsbee's lines via Politico.
