How did you install it? through synaptic?
Go to synaptic, search for kde and mark for complete removal.

sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop should do the trick

I already asked this not so long ago. Here's the relevant thread:

use debfoster. Essentially, you will be choosing which package groups stay and which go.

Simply uninstall kdelibs

That's all you need.

You don't seem to believe me, but you really only need to uninstall kdelibs and all kde stuff will automatically be uninstalled as it depends on kdelibs.

Oh, and deborphan is nicer than debforster imho.
