Joe “The Plumber” Wurzelbacher, told a television station that he plans to report from the Middle East for www.pjtv.com, a conservative Christian Web site, for 10 days.
“Being a Christian I’m pretty well protected by God I believe,” Wurzelbacher said. “That’s not saying he’s going to stop a mortar for me, but you gotta take the chance.”
Wurzelbacherbecame famous after John McCain referred to him several times in a presidential debate in October. The plumber’s move coincidentally comes shortly after he released a new book.
“I get to go over there and let their “Average Joes” share their story, what they think, how they feel, especially with world opinion, maybe get a real story out there,” Wurzelbacher told the station.
