Is ‘Joe the Plumber’ really an investor?

A sleuth over at Democratic Undeground uncovered some dirt on the token hard-working American Joe “the Plumber” Wurzelbacher (pictured) from last night’s debate. It looks like McCain’s poor buddy is actually an investor, according to this web site. JCC Investments was started in 2001 and includes one employee, Joe Wurzelbacher.

Hardly the great symbol of average America McCain portends him to be.
