It’s an election. People are going to ask tough questions, maybe loaded questions, maybe questions with an agenda. Oh wow, what a surprise. If you’re a politician, you better get freaking used to it! Come on, have you ever been on a job interview and they raked you over the coals? Maybe they were hard on you but guess what, you’re the job candidate and you have to take it, or decide that you don’t want the job. It’s pretty funny how people think the media are “smearing” the liberal illuminati with a simple interview question. Maybe they’ve just gotten a bit too comfortable with the MSM covering up all their dirty laundry and bailing them out of uncomfortable situations. They are just aghast when they have to be treated like anybody else.

Are you freakin’ kidding me???!!! That was like being questioned by the Gestapho - all that was missing was the bare lightbulb above his head! Sheesh - Was her next question “Are you still beating your wife?” The questions sounded more satirical to the normal viewer - I’m with Biden, is this a joke?

Good lord, I’m amazed at how low those on the right will go. What happened to common decency - and professionalism?

I am hoping soon that Dems stop appearing on FOX news as well. Without something to push against, all these pseudo-journalists may start eating themselves alive.

This women is not a journalist and it is disappointing CNN gives her a national stage to spew forth her absurd contention that she is a legitimate journalist.

If the mere suggestion that the wealthy should share with the middle class the grim responsibility of paying taxes brings this sort of nonsense to the fore we are doomed.

The right wing in this country has gone completely overboard. The author of this blog has also gone a bit overboard into describing Biden as “upset.” LOL. I think the more accurate description would include adjectives such as shocked, incredulous disbelief.

In all fairness, if anyone believes that it is reasonable to liken Obama to Marxism, then why not consider the rather Fascist subtext of her question?

We might finally understand who really takes ownership of that precious sense of entitlement.

Obama did not specifically state people that did not work. However, he did state more than once redistribution of wealth to those at the bottom. Who exactly would be more at the bottom than those who do not work? Obama, “Words mean things!” Obama, “I can no more denounce him than I could my own Grandmother.” Obama, “This was just some guy in my neighborhood.” Obama, “Acorn, just some community group that I know of…” Exactly just how many gaffes, questionable associations, and other lies are people willing to over look to get Obama elected. He just may be a wonderful person, but can America take the chance. Those who believe in him please ask this question of any woman, “Do men change?” After they answer consider Obama’s past association and his past and present statements. Then go and vote as you feel motivated to do. As asked on the streets in NJ, “Who are you going to vote for?” “Obama”, “Why?”, “Cus he’s black.”, What do you like about his vice president, Sarah Palin?” “Oh, she be good for him.” This obviously was a person who had taken the time to study the issues and who is in the race. This is what this election is all about, about a lot of blind following.

I would consider this absurd if these questions were asked by a credible journalist who simply asks tough questions (like the late great Tim Russert) but this anchor clearly had the agenda of smearing Biden with outrageous questions. These questions weren’t tough, they were biased and hateful and any real journalist knows the difference.

On the other hand, Palin is not answering to even credible journalists. Why isn’t anyone outraged about that?

I have no problem with Biden cutting off idiot reporters from the democratic machine. Nor do I have a problem with the McCain campaign doing the same. In my book a reporter should always treat their subject with respect - particularly presidential candidates. The questions they pose should also be respectful. A question comparing OBama with Karl Marx is ignorant and disrespectful. It is the equivalent of comparing McCain with a mass murderer because he may have been in the military. Such questions are themselves a slur which a smarter jouranlist would not ask.

OBama has never suggested that he will take money from wage earners in order to distribute it to people that do not want to work. This is sensationalist made-up stuff designed to scare ignorant and or gullable people that otherwise might vote democratic.

Please ask the journalist in question whether the fact that the IRS taxes people in the US makes America a communist country and if she supports America that makes her a communist?

I would like all politicians to answer tough questions, but these weren’t tough questions, these were loaded right wing smears spoken in question format.

What politician would be stupid enough to continue to appear on a television station that has exhibited a clear agenda to discredit or mock him? That alleged “journalist” in Florida was not a newscaster or a journalist. She was a Republican headhunter who is bucking for a job with FOX News. I don’t blame Biden a bit for asking her if her question was a joke. Talk about a loaded question– How does your running-mate’s economic plan differ at all from the philosophy of Karl Marx? That woman is a joke, and I think you have to hand it to Biden for having the presence of mind to retain his composure and answer the question without just getting up and walking out on the interview.
