		<description>&lt;p&gt;Here’s Joe the Plumber on his 1989 Laz-Y-Boy couch:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://harryallen.info/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/42921942.jpg&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://harryallen.info/wp-cont.....921942.jpg&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It would have been nice to have this in the above velvet painting! I mean, really, this is the picture that inspired the velvet painting in the first place, isn’t it?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;What would you say if you were visiting someone and they proudly showed you this picture on the wall?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You know it’s going to happen in some Republican’s house somewhere in America.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Unless we all chip in to purchase it and mail it to McCain’s house in Arizona as a present. Or one of the other 7. Or was that 9? I forget.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’m sure he’d love to see Joe again. And again. And again…&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;This is a question I’d just as lief not face at this time of day but, if there is at least one pic like this of joe running around loose, how velvet pix are there of palin? People must be hanging on to *them* for investment purposes. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Which brings to mind another question in a similar vein: Did the person who’s trying to sell the atrocity shown above actually pay $250. for it or does s/he think there’s someone out in internet land who *will*? Either way, the seller is a few keys short a piano.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
