Here's how pitiful the Republican Party has become: they're inviting fake celebrity Joe the Plumber who isn't named Joe and isn't a plumber to its national events. And then they're regretting it.
Last night, the GOP held an event in Washington, D.C. called the DisHonors Awards, which disses liberal media groups. Invitees included former Attorney General Ed Meese, talk show host G. Gordon Liddy and former House Speaker Bob Livingston (you remember him, he was Speaker for about 10 minutes before they found out he had run around on his wife and he had to resign).
Anyhow, Joe the Non-plumber received a standing ovation from the crowd, at which point he embarrassed the tightly wound Repubs by telling them, "God, all this love and everything in the room I'm getting horny." The noise in the crowd died down immediately, replaced by nervous coughing. Luckily, there were no reports of offended GOP belles fainting.
So much for the party opening its arms to "regular Joes."
