Barack Obama cuts TV station’s cord over Joe Biden grilling
http://news.bostonherald.com/new…
WFTV-Channel 9 anchorwoman Barbara West quizzed Sen. Biden about Obama’s intention to “spread the wealth,” referring to the Democratic White House contender’s comments to “Joe the Plumber.”She compared Obama’s comments to the socialist doctrine of Karl Marx then asked Biden, “How is Sen. Obama not being a Marxist if he intends to ‘spread the wealth?’ ”
Biden paused momentarily, grinned, then asked, “Are you joking? Is this a joke? Is this a real question?”
He defended Obama by saying he hoped to spread the wealth by giving the middle class tax breaks. “It’s a ridiculous question,” Biden concluded.
But West wasn’t finished as she asked Biden about his comments that Obama could be tested early on as president. She wondered if the Delaware senator was saying America’s days as the world’s leading power were over.
“I don’t know who’s writing your questions,” Biden shot back.
- me being from Florida I saw this interview. Biden did pretty well actually. http://www.youtube.c…moveinspace
- Uhm, actually he avoided her questions and seemed pissed that she was asking them.********
- he answered everything she said and I would be pissed as well. No worries Obama will be elected next week.moveinspace
- She tried onnecting his"will be tested" comment to implying that the US would not be a world power. That's quite a stretch that i'd be pissed about toolocustsloth
- i'd be pissed about toolocustsloth
- Hypocrisy. The first the media asks him a question he doesn't like and they shut them down. Hilarious.********
