Boy is Joe the Plumber sorry he said anything to Barack Obama now.

After complaining to B.O about his tax plan -- and becoming John McCain's main talking point at Wednesday night's debate -- it turns out he actually owes the state of Ohio $1,182.98 in back taxes. The state filed a tax lien against Joe in January of last year that's still active.

And by the way, Joe the Plumber's name isn't Joe. It's Sam, according to state records.
