I don't expect to convince anyone of anything with this thread. It just makes me feel good to pass this along on this fine Friday:

'A NIGHT WITH THE JOE'S'.... Consider the intellectual firepower on hand for this event.

A lawyer, a sheriff, and a plumber walk into a room...

No, it's not the beginning of a joke. 2010 Alaska Senate nominee Joe Miller (R) has entered an agreement to have Twenty-First Century Speakers represent him in securing speaking engagements, according to a statement he sent out Wednesday.

Miller will be speaking at "A Night with the Joe's," a March 24 event in Montaro, California with two other "Joes": Maricopa County Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio and Samuel "Joe The Plumber" Wurzelbacher. "The Campaign to Defeat Barack Obama" is sponsoring the event, according to Miller's statement. 2010 Nevada Senate nominee Sharon Angle (R), who this week announced she is running for Congress, will also reportedly appear at the event.

Miller, Arpaio, Wurzelbacher, and Angle -- all together for one night only. Whatever they're charging for tickets, it's too much.

How cringe-worthy is this? The name of the event is "A Night with the Joe's." Someone should probably let the organizers know the plural of "Joe" is not "Joe's."

Classic, especially with the misuse of the word "Joe's."

And I was wondering why, in a previous thread, I mentioned that you are more willing to give people on the left a pass while persecuting the right.

It's called having a sense of humor.

Wow, your able posting of all this good stuff is so exciting! Wow,wow, what a robust sense of humor. Listen to them, you might learn something.

Well, no one ever said that the right wasn't anti-intellectual.

The fact that Sheriff Joe is campaigning out of state for somebody else, while Maricopa County has 90 unsolved murders is just more proof that he's a publicity seeking blowhard and not much else.
A very large percentage of the people in his lockup are awaiting trial. They haven't been convicted of anything, and yet are subjected to the same treatment as his convicts.

Would you like to house them till the trial date? What is it you expect? His job is to catch them. He isn't empowered to deliver instant justice. That he has done his job and the lockup people are awaiting trial is a different matter. Take that up with the court system.

That guy is regarded as a real hero in the war on in some parts of California, and whil I am a Republican myself though as far from the right wing as you can get, o me Joe Arpaio has got it absolutely RIGHT.

He is a here as far as I am cncerned, from what I have heard and what I know about the rampant crime, drug dealing, gun running and illegal aliens swamping Central and Southern Arizona.

A night listening to Angle and the plumber would be like being rolled down a hill inside a barrel full of marbles.

All of you who wish you had Sheriff Joe in your state are welcome to him. Good riddance.
