Barack Obama's campaign killed all interviews with a Florida TV station after Sen. Joe Biden, the Democratic vice presidential nominee, faced tough and critical questions from a reporter at the Orlando station, the Orlando Sentinel reported .
During a satellite video Thursday, WFTV's Barbara West quoted Karl Marx and asked Biden how Obama's comment to "Joe the Plumber," about spreading the wealth wasn't being Marxist.
"Are you joking?," Biden asked.
West replied, "No."

We fought a war to rid Iraq and the world of one dictator named Hussein. Now, here in this country, we are about to elect him in a form of a reincarnation of Saddam/Stalin/Marx/Hitler combined. The United States has lost its mind in its bid to get free handouts from the government.

Get used to this. A dictator cannot have people asking tough questions. Seesh, in the face of adversity you fold up like a wet diaper don't you?
Thank God our men in Iraq are men.

The only “outrage” is that is took so long for the question to be asked.
I wish the reporter had follow-up questions that make it clear that Biden’s answers were not responsive, and in fact reflect no difference from Marxism.

Joe the plumber asks a question Obama doesn't like and they dig into his private life for all the world to see. A reporter asks questions Biden doesn't like and they boycott the station. I thought the libs loved free speech.
Oh, wait....they only love free speech for terrorists, Christian and conservative bashers, and America haters.
The hypocrisy and downright stupidity of the left never ceases to amaze me.

I watched the video and must say that I am extremely proud of Barbara West. She will hold a lace in the pantheon of media super stars (short list: Rush, Hannity, Malkin, Ingram etc. are on it). Great interview!
To: Dr. Ursus
Or maybe Zero will ask Ayers for his thoughts about what needs to be done...you know that one little plan to liquidate 25 million people?
Its clear what this portends - the model on display is naked and without doubt, ask questions that make the Revoluti...err...0bama look bad and the Baraksehviks will remove your voice and if your lucky that might be where it ends.
If not, well, you were probably a racist and had it coming to you anyway.

Obama is a just a skinny little kid and can’t take the heat of the kitchen. Liberalism/Marxism can never stand having to explain itself.

Forget about any notion of the defense of free speech, they want (and are counting on) people to feel FEAR of censorship.
They are laying down the foundation to send the message, as a mental model. Its not anything that is written down, but its certainly something you WILL learn to respect and obey.

I just heard (on FOX) that West was Chief Assistant to Peter Jennings.....she has a very experienced background.
Keep that in mind if the attacks start to paint her a a “local yokle” out to make a name for herself.

How did you like the way she say “No” when he asked if she was joking. That was the highlight of the interview. It was when Biden realized he was not going to dumb her down for the public.
BTW, I think this story is getting legs. No one can deny a pattern of how Obama deals with dissent anymore. Eric Shaun (FOX) is on this.

No slow Joe, we are not joking.
