After being given a free pass by the media this election season, Obama’s campaign got upset when asked some real questions by WTFV’s Barbara West. During an interview with Sen. Joe Biden, West asked real questions that voters want to know, not the BS Obama is the Messiah questions that they have been getting the entire campaign.
Biden decided to take his ball and go home and not play with them anymore. Later Obama’s campaign called to cancel a scheduled interview with Biden’s wife. The Obama ticket is once again reminding everyone that if you want to “score” an interview with them it has to be a nice controlled fake interview. You know, the kind we have been seeing for months. http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/entertainment_tv_tvblog/2008/10/obama-campaig-1.html?cid=136374901#comments http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/entertainment_tv_tvblog/2008/10/wftvs-barbara-w.htmlWhat is NowPublic?

ojt, I like this story. It's good stuff.
I suppose now is the time that both camps want to only be seen in the best possible light.

The conservative Right never wants answers. They want to be told answers that they have manufactured and want to be true, using slanderous allegations whenever possible.
Quoting Marx, continuing to use scare tactics, misstating facts, inferring communism, socialism, terrorism and the rest is not engaging in any discourse meant to get responses.
It is done to smear and create fear.

Really?
Let's see BO himself says that he will "spread the wealth", is this not communist ideology?
Biden himself has said that they(BO and himself) will be tested within six months visa vie some sort of terrorist attack or other major catastrophe.
Sounds like they are preparing us for the hell to pay, Gee thanks. I'm really looking forward to the return of government cheese lines :) Woo hoo.

Ya know, I gotta call you on that one. I listened to the interview and whether you're a leftwinger or a rightwinger, that stupid blond was way out of line. I even wrote to her and called her 6 shades of stupid and told her that if her producer put her up to those questions, she should start naming names because what she did was totally uncalled for.....PERIOD.

What she did has NO PLACE in politics......EVER.......PERIOD.....I would have even said the same thing had she asked McRage or the pitbull the same questions.

granted, nobody wants to hear obama is the messiah, but calling him a marxist is uncalled for. name calling and insinuating something somebody is not, to get a rise in the media, is horrific. now when the reporter asked Palin what she reads, and insisted on finding out what it was, it was a little upsetting that they made a big deal out of it...but this by far is much, much worse, and i refuse to associate with a group that stoops to this low of a level.
do you seriously think those questions were valid? did you not at all listen to how those questions were asked?? keep your opinions on who you decide valid, but don't take this as a way to keep your points, and who you want in office, justified. this attempt was embarrassing for me as a republican, and the attempts that you pull for our party is pathetic. keep your mouth shut, because you're not helping

Talking of the messia, "it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven" jesus the messia. Sounds like a call to "spread the wealth around" to me. The "christian" right = a contradiction in terms.
