Someone who misrepresents himself.

1. Blanket description of a group of people, similar to Average Joe or Joe Sixpack. Joe the Plumber represents hard-working citizens who perform a task vital to the community.
2. Nickname for Joe Wurzelbacher during the 2008 US presidential election, who got his 15 minutes of fame by confronting Barack Obama with a hypothetical scenario of buying the plumbing business he worked for that would allegedly put him in the top tax bracket. The actual income of the business he was babbling about didn't reach above a quarter of the taxable income needed before the threshold.

1. The fundamentals of the economy are strong. I know for a fact that Joe the Plumber can bench over 350 lbs.
2. Aight, so I called up my dawg named Joe Wurzelburger.. Wurzelb... Joe the Plumber, and his imaginal business would be taxed higher in that one's tax plan!

Yo that Joe the Plumber wasn't a plumber, independent voter or making anywhere near 250,000$ a year like he said he was.
That Joe the Plumber should go kill himself.

When a man "laying the pipe from behind" in the bathroom. the man intentionally thrusts into the girl extra hard causing her to hit her head on the sink.
Grant was hooking up with Shanda, when he got too rough and gave her a "Joe the Plumber", now her ears wont stop ringing.

An individual named Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher who was the surprise star of the final 2008 presidential debate between now president-Elect Barack Obama and Republican Senator John McCain as a feeble attempt at defeating Barack Obama during said debate. He was made famous by questioning Barack Obama's proposed tax policies, which was blown completely out of proportion and twisted out of context beyond recognition by the McCain campaign and the FOX News corporation. He was also made infamous for being an unlicensed plumber who owed back taxes to the IRS, which was never mentioned by the McCain campaign.
