Barbara Wests unprofessional interview?

SUBMAN1 · 10-26-08, 10:27 AM

Doesn't look unprofessional to me. Just tough questions based on what running around right now - http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/ent...campaig-1.html

I watched the interview and she asked what is on everyones mind.

Joe, the Senator did actually pretty good, imo. It just really interesting to see how the left leaning media, blogs, etc screams and bitches about this.

I'm not so sure about the Biden responses. I will respect your opinion because you took enough time out of your life to watch the video and respond. I see a very uncomfortable person on the hotseat who would tell you to go 'stick it' if he was not on tape. I'm jaded though, so I could be completely wrong, but if given a 20 minute interview when she could call him out on a few of his 'mistatements' then, we would be in for a real treat.

Oh, I do agree with you. I had actually had fun see him squirm at times and almost loose it. Still he mostly kept his composure (even if its just for the camera). Well, that's, of course just my opinion.
I wouldn't vote him, even if I could, though.
I am more surprised, or rather amused about the reaction from the campaign and the left wingers.

How to avoid gaffs....get mad at the interviewer and not answer the tough questions. Joe Biden 101. (3 letters for you Joe Biden...J O B S) nice work Joe, that is 3 letters. BTW, Barney Frank wants to lower military funding by 25%.....Joe Biden said Obama will be tested his first 6 months with a generated crisis....ah, do we really want to reduce the funding right now Barney? Oh yes Barney, it was you having an affair with another man on the board at Fanny Mae...interesting:hmm:

I think Obama is a very smart man. If he wins, and wins well, not only would the Democrats control the White House, but also both houses of Congress. In the Senate, they might reach the magic number of 60 seats required to override a filibuster and thus prevent Republicans from talking to death any legislation they oppose. Democrats would then be able to do exactly what they want with no opposition.

If you create an atmosphere where huge numbers of middle class people see that they can work less hard and have the Government solve their problems and keep them solvent by taxing the rich, then why would they ever vote anything other than Democratic?

AVGWarhawk · 10-27-08, 11:58 AM

We were just discussing that in the President thread. Furthermore, a tape of Obama talking about redistributing the wealth has been found. The tape is from 2001 and apparently this quest to redistribute the wealth has been on going for Obama. I think America has been snookered.

Too bad all the candidates don't get equally grilled at every opportunity.

True tater but then it is view as biased reporting based on who got grilled worse, etc. It is a no win situation. I did have to laugh at Joe when he asked if she was serious and the women did not bat an eye.
