| Best Interview Ever: Barbara West vs. Joe Biden |
| 2008-10-27 |
| WFTV Channel 9's Barbara West puts Joe Biden on the hot seat over ACORN, voter fraud, and Barack Obamas Spread the wealth comments. The result? Best interview ever. The Gaffe-Master Joe Biden was so upset that the Obama campaign canceled an interview West's station had scheduled with his wife, Jill. The Orlando Sentinel reports: "Why did Barack Obamas campaign cancel a WFTV-Channel 9 interview with Jill Biden, wife of Sen. Joe Biden? The campaign cited an unprofessional interview WFTVs Barbara West did Thursday with Joe Biden. In a statement Friday, Adrianne Marsh, Florida spokeswoman for Obamas campaign, said the station, in talking with Sen. Biden, was both combative and woefully uninformed about simple facts. Marsh said Wests insistence that Obama was an organizer for ACORN was 100 percent false. In a line of questioning that would make Rush Limbaugh proud, West even went as far as to quote Karl Marx, a Communist icon, in a disturbing attempt to associate Barack Obama with socialism, Marsh wrote. West said, I think I asked him some pointed questions... I dont think I was rude or inconsiderate to him. |

| #25 "All hail our Obamarx Overlord!" Bullshit Zebulon! There are many of us, immigrants from all continents that experienced socialism and communism on our skins an minds and we have been sensitized to catch even a whiff of it. A spade is a spade, even if plated by false gold. We did not come here to find ourselves in that crap again. Therefore: NOBAMARX!!! |

| #24 One more thing. Thank goodness Biden answered everything well because the issue is WFTV behavior, not Biden's. WHY? I hate to tell you this, but WFTV isn't running for office. Obama and Biden are. |

| #23 Maybe Biden doesn't really know about Obama's past associations and speeches, but he'd better get informed real quick. Just gleaning other posted articles on RB show video's of the wealth redistribution plan, his foundation's funding of the former Communist Party leader, Michael Blonsky along with Ayers, and Farrakhan's goals to expand the Nation of Islam so other "oppressed" Native Americans and Hispanics like Raza, can collect reparations from the new guvmint. A little more digging clearly shows links to ACORN and Alinsky, another Communist inspiration from his youth. His past associations would prevent him from being an FBI agent, yet he has not been forthcoming on releasing his records and producing a birth certificate proving his presidential eligibility. Maybe Sean Hannity should send Biden a copy of last night's Hannity's America to catch him up to speed. |

| #21 Thank goodness Biden answered everything well because the issue is WFTV behavior, not Biden's. I wonder what the Democratic Party is going to do when they find out these sorts of tactics don't work on Pakistan or China. |

| #19 Well, it's good to see that after 36 yrs in the senate and as a former lawyer Joe Biden got one interview right. sarc/off. The scary thing about a Chairman Maobama el presidente is the fact that he and Joe the Career Politician will have a chance to finally fix the tax code. Nothing better than guys w/law degrees that have never really practiced law or have actually worked in the private sector or in coporate America should attempt to fix tax code. I know that when I need my car engine tuned up I go to my accountant. How stupid or ignorant is the electorate in our Country? ...rhetorical. |

| #17 Come on ZP, how can you possible deny that Bambi is a socialist? Please, let's hear it. Explain how 'redistributing the wealth' is not pure socialism? |

| #16 Sub prime mortgages were from Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, other Democrats and a few Republicans too and.... (drum roll please!)... Barak Obama (who sued citibank for ACORN to _force_ banks to make bad loans). |

| #15 Well, let's see...universal health care, tax the rich and feed the poor...sounds like socialism to me. As for the middle class taking a hit, I don't feel like I took any hits at all until this sub prime mortgage mess hit the fan and it looks like Bawney Fwanks was the main man behind that. She shoulda asked about the birth certificate. |

| #10 I saw the Mrs. West interview of John McCain. Wow she really knows how to spoon feed the old man. Her interview with Biden clearly showed her republican beliefs. Not to mention Mr West is a republican consultant. Thank goodness Biden answered everything well because the issue is WFTV behavior, not Biden's. Touche! |

| #9 The Obama camp has already banned the station from any more interviews or information. Lets Review: Joe the Plumber asked Bambi a basic, simple, question, "Are you going to raise my taxes?" and gets the third degree from the Cannidate himself, his Vice President pick, and the MEDIA. We know more about Joe the Plumber then about the Democratic Candidate for the President of the United States. One local TV station, out of the thousands in the USA, not to mention the major networks, asked Joe Biden a couple of simple questions about Bambi's socialist's ambitions - and the TV station gets banned from any more interviews or information from the Obama Campaign. Sign of things to come if Obama gets elected. Also - is anyone going to follow up on asking Biden about his outright lies during the interview? |

| #8 "a disturbing attempt to associate Barack Obama with socialism" He does the associating himself. He just doesn't want that pointed out while he's playing moderate for one more week. The Obama campaign needs to face lots more of these pointed questions in the coming week. |

| #7 Please keep in mind, this is NOT about WFTV's Channel 9 and Democratic interviews and coverage. This is about Barb West and the left's desire to see her FIRED! Terminated! Jobless! Scorned! Hate-branded! Ushered off to the re-education camps as an object lesson. |

| #6 Biden did very well considering how biased the interview was. He answered all the questions about socialism and Karl Marks perfectly. Sure sure, thosed questions that needed to be asked, like Karl Marx quote needed to be said. If your a moron! How about asking John McCain some tough questions. All you get from him is "I'm not going to answer, everyone in America knows the answer, everyone! Why should I answered a question everyone knows!" Mrs. West is a real trollop, under the guise of being a friendly interview then throwing out questions based on rumors as they were 100% fact. Good job Joey Boy! Compared to Palin, you aced it! |

| #5 Ed, she only had a few minutes to get her questions out, and Joe's a master of extending the time line to snuff out additional questions. Hard to tell if she was under-prepared since there wasn't enough time for an extended interview. |

| #4 She just may be a decent journalist. |

| #3 I thought she was way under prepared, had no followup questions and didn't challenge Biden's bald faced lies at all. Such as Obama not funding ACORN for at least $800,000, equating McCain w/ ACORN, or the years Obama spent funneling the wealth of rich dead white guys to ACORN. |
