Title: Biden gets asked tough questions; Obama campaign cuts off interviews
Post by: Monkeyleg on October 26, 2008, 12:16:43 AM
Finally somebody starts asking Biden direct questions. And what happens? The Obama campaign clamps down hard.

This is great to watch. Story and video link here (http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/10/25/obama-campaign-cuts-interviews-florida-tv-station/)

Uncle Joe did seem a tad upset. I believe he was expecting the normal softball questions. It doesn't matter who writes the questions. It does matter what your answers are.

... or what you are wearing, and how expensive it is.

I found the interview questions interesting.  Are you serious?  Maybe that might be the new quote of the month.  Dang right I'm serious.  All I can say is he's a dang liberal snob and when someone asked questions that might actually reveal something about the character of Joe Biden and the Democratic platform... we get "Are you serious?"

Consider it a preview.

Saw that.

Silence speaks volumes.

Now, we just need more of those questions being asked everywhere.

It will result in lawsuits against the stations who ask them, public smearing of the people who ask them (with dirt being dug up on them) and possible hate crime charges.

Look what they tried to do to Plumber Joe!

Guys,

The link by the O.P. does not directly involve the interview that was interrupted. The one that was interrupted involved Biden's wife, Jill. If I am not mistaken, that video can be found here:

NOTE: The error that appears when you try to watch the video.

Hope for this one to go viral, if you ever want to see it.

Everytime the Obama camp becomes outraged when wealth redistribution and Marxist comparison questions come up, I can't help but wonder if any of them have actually read anything by Marx.

The fact that they probably haven't doesn't bother me nearly so much as the fact that the the majority of the masses who say "yeah!" probably haven't. Or that they've been given snippets of Marxism out of context by their professors in sociology 101 to make them think Marxism is ever so cool -- like Che shirts.

If the Obama administration--should that be visited upon us--really wants to thug it out, they'd better have the fangs to back it up.  They are going to piss off a LOT of people.  We are not slaves yet.

I read that article earlier and thought, "When the going gets tough, the faux-tough refuse to deal with it by cutting off access."

I agree with Ben's question. Biden is such an elitist moron he almost certainly thinks their "spread it around" philosophy is unique to history.

Maybe all the media should stop asking questions and covering the Dems.

Another angle on this...the journalist who asked the question is a professor as well. She is apparently quite intelligent.

Biden asked her "Who writes your questions?" as if she was not capable of writing them herself. Why, because she's female?

Yes, Biden IS a chauvenist. He's let that slip a number of times.
