Joe the Plumber to Host Reality Show?

Oct. 22, 2008 - PRLog -- Will Joe the Plumber host his own TV reality show? Is Joe Biden gaga over Sarah Palin? Did Barrack Obama's campaign cause a national epidemic of the vapors?  Before leaving office, will President Bush ask Congress to designate Cinco de Mayo a national holiday?

The answer to these questions is yes according to the editors at The Loose Change Gazette, published by the satirical web site http://www.slick.com. "Our publication's motto is ‘Lies, rumors, innuendos and half-truths . . . just like the mainstream press,’" explains Jesse Dalton, Editor in Chief.  "Our site is both parody and protest," says Dalton, a political independent.  "Both parties are criminal enterprises that make the Mafia look like Cub Scouts," he adds.

Dalton is the creator of "Election 2008 political funny money" lampooning both McCain and Obama.  The printed money, which, at first glance, bears a striking resemblance to real U.S. currency, depicts McCain as a mummy and Obama as Che Guevara.  Both bills contain hidden jokes and zingers.  The site sells the faux currency in pads of 25 bills.  "Obama is outselling McCain by about 50 to 1," says Dalton. The bills can be seen at http://www.slick.com.
