This wasn’t pretty: then again, interviews where you’re being asked to distinguish between your running mate’s views and Karl Marx’s rarely are. Head’s up via Ace of Spades:
The interviewer is Barbara West, of Florida’s WFTV News. The interviewee is, of course, Senator Joe Biden, who graced us with his trademark… thoughts. Some points to consider, Senator:
-
When you’re pushing back on the perfectly accurate observation that your running mate is attached to the hip to ACORN… don’t quote one of ACORN’s talking points.
-
Umm… your guy thinks that “when you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody“. Do try to keep up, Senator.
-
I understand that you’re not a drinker, Senator. Good: drunken oblivion is too easy an out for you for dealing with the fact that you had to tell the world that Obama’s mistaken views on Iraq were better than yours, let alone John McCain’s.
And, lastly: “I don’t know who’s writing your questions…” What a charming attempt to diminish a reporter who dared ask you questions that you didn’t want to answer. And, just out of curiosity: would you have said that to a man?

izoneguy (Diary) Saturday, October 25th at 12:10PM EST (link)Why is it that when Biden & Obama talk they are 99% lies?
Someone should use this and edit video responses to everyone of Joes Blows lies….
Obama gave ACORN $800,000.
Obama did say to Joe the Plumber that he (Obama) wants to spread the wealth around.
I love when the reporter asks if Obama is like Marx and Joe says “are you kidding me?” and she says no….
Kinda like wraps up your ACORN’s for the winter.
The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.
This is SHOCKING!

“He wasn’t a benefactor, he was an organizer.” heh heh
“He’s letting the middle class get back the tax cuts they used to have.” Huh? They’ve never had lower rates than they’ve had with the Bush tax cuts.
I hope Ms West doesn’t mind it when her tax return accidentally gets leaked Monday.
Phrase-parsing forehead-paralytic Joe makes me sick.
29Victor (Diary) Saturday, October 25th at 12:25PM EST (link)“We have not paid them one single penny to register a single voter.“
Every time he says “we have not paid Acorn” he qualifies it with “to register a single voter.” And gives a look like the question is too stupid to even consider.
Of course they paid them several hundred thousand dollars, just not “to register a single voter.”
I’m just so sick of him. He does the same thing to her here that he did to Palin in the debate. She makes a direct and true accusation and he gets all Eddie Haskel on her, just appalled that someone would even suggest it “No, Mrs. Cleaver. I don’t know why anyone would say that I gave the Beav’ a botox injections. I’m embarrassed for you that you would even ask that question.”
The whole reason for doing this is to make the questioner look like a jerk for asking the question while you go on to tell a bald-faced lie.
The man makes me ill.

29Victor (Diary) Saturday, October 25th at 12:31PM EST (link)Grrrr…. This man….grrrr.
These are the best questions I’ve ever heard put to Biden.
He says this to try to make her look bad for asking him tough questions. He says this to warn others that if they ask him tough questions, they’ll get the same treatment.
If the questions make you uncomfortable…attack the questioner.
Grrrr
Yeah, but look what he did.
29Victor (Diary) Saturday, October 25th at 12:33PM EST (link)He attacked her. Now the liberal blogs and the MSM can concentrate on the “stupid” questions that she asked instead of his stupid, stupid answers.
One more Marxist paraphrase.
29Victor (Diary) Saturday, October 25th at 12:45PM EST (link)“And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to…religion…as a way to explain their frustrations.”
pretty much means the same thing as:
“Religion is the opiate of the people.”
It is a common misconception that when Marx was talking about the “opiate of the people” (or masses) he meant that the ruling classes used religion to keep people stupid and compliant.
But the full quote is
But what Marx was really saying is that when people are frustrated, angry, in pain or feel helpless, they turn to religion to comfort them and take away the pain.
This is what Obama was saying in his quote as well.
So, it’s not surprising that Obama would not be surprised when people under stress clung to their Religion. It’s what a good Marxist would expect them to do.
just sad

Note how shocked and perturbed he is that he isn’t being given the usual fawning treatment.
Where did this breath-of-fresh-air reporter come from? Heaven? Hope she enjoyed her last interview with a Democrat candidate.
Papers please.

jonnot Saturday, October 25th at 2:09PM EST (link)I just love the way that Biden is attempting to completely “spin” the remarks that he made last Saturday and Sunday. He NEVER said that the next president would be severely tested within the first 6-months; he DEFINITELY DID say that OBAMA would be the one tested within the first 6-months. He never said that the response would at first seem to be an unpopular decision of the President’s, but that Obama’s decision would be unpopular. He was only speaking about Obama, and is now trying to spin this as EITHER candidate would get this supreme test. More “rhetorical flourishes”, I suppose.
?
McPALINation Saturday, October 25th at 2:28PM EST (link)think maybe 4 or 5 (or 6, or 7–I just couldn’t keep up) blinks per word uttered was a give-away too?

I’m solidly middle middle class, and I’m doing just fine, thank you very much.
I want to get to upper middle class status and then upper class status. And, while I know my tax rates will go up, the increase should not be prohibitive and discouraging.

izoneguy (Diary) Saturday, October 25th at 3:55PM EST (link)…single voters multiple times!!! In an effort to gum up the works. They never imagined that a single voter would try to vote multiple times, but I am sure they did. They had people “moving” to districts for only the express intention of voting for Obama, not living there. Some of those people need to be moved to Ohio jail cells until after the 2012 elections….
If Obama slimes his way in I am sure he will let prisoners vote by 2012.

JLenardDetroit (Diary) Saturday, October 25th at 4:01PM EST (link)Not even the Socialist Senator “Sanders” (who lists himself as an Independent is LEFT of the big BO (read: stench). Heck, Hilary is DEFINATELY more a Moderate than Obama.
She may be earnestly and sadly so misinformed (or just blatantly Partisan and lying) to even think to make such a statement about Obama’s positions. After all the screw-ups that have come from the ObamaBinBiden ticket have made lately to state/admit the true intent of what their administration would look/rule like (which is exactly as he ran, Leftist, during the Primaries). How anyone that pays any attention could believe he (BHO) is “Moderate” has to be a willing dupe (self delusional) at this point, or just a Liar (they are stuck with these clowns as their candidate).
That interview was great and a perfect example of Socialists, er… “Progressives,” having to carefully construct their sentences to be able to Lie while technically being correct (ala Bill Clinton sentence structuring and emphasis’ and “definition of is” BS). “I did not spend one penny on fast food last week…” No, really, was more like $50, but it definitely wasn’t just ‘one penny’ and the drive-thru’s were slow not fast. It’s like ObamaBinBiden think they are clever children trying to get out of a punishment from a parent for their misbehaving – and too many voters are like bad parents (lol).

If I was this reporter I would have pushed Biden more. I would have responded to his pathetic with the following:
Bush’s tax plan devastated the middle class? How so? I now have a $1,000 per child tax credit thanks to Bush, and I’m in the middle class, or was this devastating because Bush made it available to wealthy people too?
Obama wants to give the middle class an additional tax break, but why can’t he do this without increasing taxes on others? Isn’t this just fermenting the divisiveness?
Obama wants to give back the tax breaks the middle class used to have? Which ones were these: the marriage penalty or the $500 per child tax credit that existed before Bush?
In these troubled economic times, why not give 100% of tax payers, and not just 95%, a tax cut?

I think you fail to understand the concept of 'wealth'
johnCV (Diary) Saturday, October 25th at 7:34PM EST (link)Wealth is the result of creating a product or service, marketing it and doing it in such a way that both parties gain benefit. The wealth garnered from such an enterprise belongs to those that actually created it.
Redistributing wealth entails forcibly removing it from those that create it (tax) to give it to those that did not earn it (EIT,Welfare, Medicaid, tax ‘rebates’ etc.). Since wealth of any maginitude is not created by those on the lower end of the economic spectrum, it is not actually possible to spread wealth ‘upwards’ since it originated there in the first place. Wealth can really only be redistributed downwards.
It’s really an easy concept, but I see you have been to the Obama/Ayers/Alinsky school of economics, so you are excused from actually understanding how capitalism works.
Really. Taking money from one group to give to another more politically palatable group is not socialism?
OK, you define socialism then – I’m can’t wait to hear this. Here, let me start you off with a little ditty “from each according to his means, to each according to his needs”.
He is Joe

merevaudevillian (Diary) Saturday, October 25th at 8:45PM EST (link)I saw the interview and thought it was just an unusually harsh interview, but nothing “biased” or “unfair.”
Then I saw this same reporter’s interview two weeks back with McCain. And… it’s about as soft as possible. The first question is absurdly soft, basically teeing McCain up to attack Obama-ACORN.
I don’t read the bile at Kos et al., so I don’t know if this point has been made. And, while I appreciate a good, tough interview, I far prefer a journalist who gives good, tough interviews to all sides.

First, spreading the wealth around sounds just like “from each… to each”?
Well that’s just straight Marxist, maybe we should go for something more subtle.
Barack Obama’s campaign has focused quite a bit on shutting down all dissent, whether it be overloading a radio station with spam callers (twice!), or having allies look into the background of a guy who happened to ask him a question, to wining about only answering 8 questions (one time) about Rezko. Or the revival of the Fairness Doctrine.
Then there’s the voter registration fraud, maybe we’ll get to see some good old fashioned ballot stuffing!
Mmmmm those sound just like a good comrade to me.

“This cancellation is NON-NEGOTIABLE, and further opportunities for your station to interview with this campaign are unlikely, at best for the duration of the remaining days until the election,” wrote Laura K. McGinnis, Central Florida communications director for the Obama campaign.
Her (and her station’s) last interview. This via Drudge Report in big red letters — should get lots more attention now.

Inconstant with ACORN statement.
1stRichard (Diary) Sunday, October 26th at 9:25AM EST (link)Obama was unpaid guest speaker for trainings and for volunteer community leaders.
http://www.acorn.org/index.php?id=17856&txirfaqpi1[showUid]=163&txirfaqpi1[back]=P2lkPTE3ODU2&cHash=f90cc60f93
“In the early 1990′s, Obama accepted two invitations to be an unpaid guest speaker at trainings for volunteers community leaders organized by Chicago ACORN. He never worked for ACORN.”
Obama was part of a law firm that represented ACORN.
http://www.acorn.org/index.php?id=17856&txirfaqpi1[showUid]=164&txirfaqpi1[back]=P2lkPTE3ODU2&cHash=70db6b1bd6
“After law school Obama joined a civil rights law firm in Chicago and was one of the attorneys there who successfully represented a coalition of groups including ACORN in a legal case that won better enforcement of the National Voter Registration Act in Illinois.”
In 1992, Obama ran a successful voter registration drive in Chicago for Project Vote, but Is Project Vote ACORN now it is but not officially then?
http://www.acorn.org/index.php?id=17856&txirfaqpi1[showUid]=165&txirfaqpi1[back]=P2lkPTE3ODU2&cHash=3f8df5cd0c
“In 1992, Obama ran a successful voter registration drive in Chicago for Project Vote which helped 150,000 people register to vote. At that time, Project Vote had no more connection to ACORN than it did with dozens of other national and local organizations with which it partnered on local registration drives. In 1994, over a year after Obama left Project Vote, ACORN and Project Vote began working much more closely together.”
Citizens’ Services, Inc got over $800,000 for recruitment and training of canvassers for ACORN.
http://www.acorn.org/index.php?id=17856&txirfaqpi1[showUid]=166&txirfaqpi1[back]=P2lkPTE3ODU2&cHash=d3bd22c3b8
“Obama For America did contract with a political consulting group called Citizens’ Services, Inc. for Get Out The Vote work in early 2008 for over $800,000. A small amount of this money was subcontracted to ACORN for recruitment and training of canvassers.”
ACORN is endorsing Obama
http://www.acorn.org/index.php?id=17856&txirfaqpi1[showUid]=167&txirfaqpi1[back]=P2lkPTE3ODU2&cHash=744969d2ed
“Obama for America contracted with Citizens’ Services Inc., a national non-profit political consulting firm, for GOTV field services during the primaries. Citizens Services Inc. performs these same services under contract to a variety of candidates and ballot measure campaigns, labor unions and public interest organizations. CSI did sub-contract with some ACORN staff for a short period to help supervise door-to-door canvassing in this program, but this was a fairly small expenditure in the overall contract.”
Susanne, one party?
John_Wayne (Diary) Sunday, October 26th at 9:45AM EST (link)If we end up with one party in this country, it will be because the leftist (read Marxists) in your party finally figure out how stop all political dissent once and for all. They are already floating many ideas… return of the fairness doctrine, national same day registering/voting, expanded government funding of groups like ACORN, etc. If Obama does win this thing, I wonder how you will feel about his leadership and the direction your party takes this country a year from now. Many Democrats were very disappointed with their golden boy Jimmy Carter as things ‘changed’ from bad to incredibly worse in the late ’70s ushering in the Reagan era . You folks take this country too far to the left and don’t stop the possibility of a populist backlash, you won’t see power again for a long time. I, like many others, see Obama as at least a Socialist if not a closet Marxists. Look at his associates! Look at his personal (in person) support for Odinga (a Marxist) in the last Kenyan presidential election. Come back to us in a year or so and try to make the argument that Obama is not a Marxist (if RS is even allowed to exist if he wins!).

The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.

First Amendment Rights?
GreenAces Sunday, October 26th at 10:48AM EST (link)To quote Mr. Biden:
Is that a joke?
McCain did the same thing after Campbell Brown dressed Tucker Bounds down, canceling his Larry King appearance. The difference being that Brown was pursuing a rational line of questioning, unlike Mrs. West’s McCarthy-Lite Inquisition. The other big difference is how the interview resonated – let’s see if people are talking about Mrs. West’s feeble interview tomorrow.
Face it – Biden easily handled this woman’s questions, she had absolutely no comeback to his smack-downs of her far-right regurgitations.
Candidates are free to choose who they do interviews with. For better, or worse.
