Joe the Gaffer was PISSED!!
Thank you for sharing the link! WOW! I’ll be sharing this!
Anyone know how to contact / email Ms. West? I’d love to thank her for helping in exposing Obama/Biden’s socialist agenda!
I now consider myself one of “the far right wing of the conservative party”! Thanks Joe!
McCain/Palin .. Country First!
PJ, check out THIS Biden video.
Obama campaign paid over 800K to acorn, who is “joe the plagiarizer” kidding?
Wow, too bad she’s a local anchor. Isn’t Biden smarmy and condescending?
Wow! That’s the first tough questions asked of him in this campaign.
He was a little rattled.
Great Job!
Here’s the direct link. This is a great example of how much of a smart ass Biden is:

Finally, a Libbie like Biden runs into someone from the media who isn’t fawning all over him with softball questions.
Barbara West gave Biden some tough questions as is to be expected if this campaign were normal and had a BALANCED media.
Biden’s flippant remarks to her questions:
—”Let’s get real now”
—Asked about Obambi’s MARXIST policies, he says “Are you serious?” “Is that a real question?”
—”I don’t know who’s writing your questions”
He’s being a total smart ass and disrespectful.
Look at Biden about to blow a fuse at 4:22 when she says “Getting back to the ‘Spreading the wealth’ question...”
Biden shakes his head slightly and knits his brow as if he’s about ready to punch her out.
He’s a mean S.O.B. A dirty politician.
McCAIN should use this as an advertisement!!!
National and local media, take note! Earn your respect back by asking Obama and Biden these and other tough questions. America deserves answers. And, btw, when there is one national press, there won't be enough jobs for all of you. You need to help defeat these controlling jerks for your own good.
The Bush Tax Rate Cuts increased overall revenue by 37%. The “rich” pay more of the overall income taxes than ever.
The bottom 50% only pay 3.7% of all income taxes.
Ten million taxpayers, previously in the 15% bracket, were taken off the tax rolls completely. The Bush Tax Rates will expire in 2011 unless Congress and the next President act. If that happens, everyone's taxes go up, not just the "rich". Yet, to the uninformed viewer, it looks like Plugs Biden has all the answers and the reporter is one sided. I looked at this with the typical “ignorant” voter in mind, and I am not convinced that it was bad for the Democrat.
Flame away...
She can kiss that network job goodbye! In fact, she’ll probably find her cat dead on her doorstep.
And I'm going to go against the grain on one point. I think it was more emphatic, if you will, in her NOT asking follow-ups.
It made her look more "removed" or "unphased" of having hit him with straight-forward, crisp questions.
I actually think that it bugged Biden more that she didn't follow up. It actually removed any label on her of being "combative," (as Biden so falsely claimed.)
And it made him look like "sure, sure, Joe...anything you say, Joe. Okie-dokie."
I liked her style...perfectly.
this video looked stage to give biden a good interview...
she had the opportunity to follow up with obama being wrong in iraq but didn’t go there... went back to socialism to give biden’s who’s writing your questions... the extreme right o fthe republican party.l..\\\
she’s a toadie.
teeman
Howzzat again Joe? Are we advocating some kind of co-Presidency? John McCain and/or Brack 0bama...
If the info-Babe had just asked a few follow-ups, we might have seen Joe get up and walk off the set. "What about the $800,000 Barack kicked back to ACORN for GOTV efforts?" "How do 95% get a refund if only 60% actually pay taxes?" Well, it was a good, if not perfect, moment.
I don’t know....it was different than the ass kissing the rats usually get but she asked the questions and then Biden delivered his B.S. without much challenge.
She wasn’t combative at all IMHO.
Amazing how the leftists can dish it out 24/7/365 and when one reporter turns the tables they suffer a meltdown.
Bravo to Barbara West, Wow, if all the reporters served the public, acted as a check on power, fulfilled their role as the fourth estate, this would be a much different election. The media is supposed to be our watch dog, they are supposed to question the people in power because it is almost impossible for the voter to gain access to our leaders.
Yet with the exception of a mildly tough O’Reilly interview of Barack Obama, there have been no hard questions lobbed at Barack Obama or Joe Biden.
We have had to wait for a citizen, Joe the Plumber Wurzelbacher, to get Obama off of his talking points, and now we get the first true tough interview of this election year, and we had to wait until October to get it.
Look at how stunned Joe Biden is to get actual tough questions. Look at how smarmy and condescending he gets because a reporter dared to ask him a question. He can’t believe it, he asks if they are real questions, then he chastises her, declaring he doesn’t know who wrote her questions. And Barack Obama supposedly used good judgement in picking Joe Biden.
Ping.
My computer won’t pull up the video, need to reboot.
I sent an email to Barbara West, the WFTV reporter thanking her for the tremendous interview and her professionalism. If you want to send her an email her address is news@wftv.com. I talked to a guy in the newsroom and when I mentioned the Obama campaign was already whining about the interview, he chuckled and said “it just seemed like obvious questions ...”Please send her an “atta girl!”
More Barbara West. STAT!
