Why does this person even exist?

The Republican's Working Man hero Joe the Plumber could barely contain himself last night before a crowd of adoring, media-bashing conservatives.

"God, all this love and everything in the room - I'm horny," declared Joe, whose real name is Samuel Wurzelbacher.

The particular state of his libido was way too much information, certainly for the Sleuth. But she wasn't the only slack-jawed person in the room.

It seemed that all of those who were gathered in the ballroom of Washington's Grand Hyatt hotel for the Media Research Center's annual "DisHonors Awards" ceremony designed to bash the dreaded liberal elite media were stunned. Buzz immediately commenced.

"Did Joe the Plumber really just say he's horny?" "Did you hear Joe say 'horny'?" "Why is he horny and why is he telling us?"

I'm not the type to begrudge anyone his boondoggle; good for him. But WHAT THE EFF does it take to get a gig around here?

Is that the secret? You have to make sure that you say absolutely nothing of any consequence? Do I have to wear acid-washed jeans?
