Well colour me surprised.

I am shocked!

Every other anchorwoman is married to an Obama campaign staffer, she's just "balancing" the liberal media bias.

If by married, you mean brainwashed in Obama's secret laboratory of evil...then yes.

Man, I want a secret laboratory of evil!

Ohhhhhhhhh that's bad.

It's unethical to do that interview.

Someone's gonna get fired.

Start Here:



His wife worked for the Bush 2000/2004 camp.

Of course. Everyone else is liberal biased. It took a Real American^tm to ask the hard questions.

bobbette: Someone's gonna get fired.

Unfortunately, if that were to happen, Ms. Palin wouldn't understand the difference between bias/conflict of interest and Katie Couric kindergarten "gotcha" questions and there'd be this whole blow up about how it's sexist.

Possible financial benefit from discrediting an interview subject vs. what papers do you read? That's totally the same!

Or their own show on FOX News.

Your guess as to which is more likely.

Depends on who gets into office in about a week...

Yes, they're like nuns. Married to Christ.

and here i thought she was a far-left nader supporter.

On behalf of Dan the Schman, I wish to share his jeanyuss

I hadn't seen this. Geez. She went for the jugular right off the bat.

And this "spreading/redistributing the wealth" thing is getting very tiresome. It's a term lacking any political meaning. This is what a government does. The only form of government that does not allocate wealth according to its needs and political ideals is no government at all -- anarchy.

If McCain taxes my health benefits to give people with no benefits a credit, is that not redistribution of wealth? Taxes themselves are redistribution of wealth, not matter how you slice the pie.

People who are getting fooled by the false insinuation of the term are...well...fools.

And this woman needs a good hard fark.

Are we going to get apologies now from the trigs that were saying she was just "asking tough questions"?

Somehow, I doubt it.

FlashHarry: and here i thought she was a far-left nader supporter.

Nader?

And here I thought she was a hard core Socialist...

Oh, did we overlook that at librul evilutionist headquarters? Apologies! We'll have one flown out to you immediately.

/Black helicopters AWAY!

i love how people scream "socialist" like that guy on hardball who screamed "appeasement!!!!"

they have no farking clue as to what it really means. it's just a buzzword designed to scare people. but then, that's what terrorists do. they scare people for political gains. GOP=terrorists.

I can gear the discussion:

"Why no sleep, honeypie?"

"I can't, This interview. I just don't know what to ask!"

"Shhh, shhh, it'll be ok. What have you got so far?"

"Uhm, I like this one. Is it true you're Satan and Barack is the anti-christ?"

"That's good. That's really good! But maybe you shouldn't press that one just yet, the non-believers and all."

"Ok, ok, how about this one? Is it true you want to kill all the white babies?"

"I swear you deserve a raise. But, be careful, you don't want to get tripped up. The info I'm getting from the campaign is that Obama wants to kill all the babies. "

"Oh my. No baby will be spared."

"Horrifying."

"They're, they're, like communists!"

"Marxists!"

"OMG! Marxist! That's it!"

Find the link to the same woman interviewing McCain later in the day.
Almost as bad as the Hannity/Palin intervies

well, no guessing where her questions came from then.

Wow.. I hadn't seen that before. How do idiots like that get to be news anchors? She asked ridiculous questions and couldn't think of a single rebuttal to anything he said.

They're face people. It's ALL about appearance and NEVER about substance. We sanctify ignoramuses in our society right now. It needs to stop.

I'm sure Drudge will publish a retraction and a clarification.
Not.

biatch looks like an inflamed coont

Looks like someone else has never heard of the internet's ability to uncover the truth...

Shocking.

BFD. I called this when the vid was posted and posted my letter to ol' Barb calling her out on this. TFA doen't even mention the work WADE has done for the DOD. He is HEAVILY into the Bush administration as well as the RNC.

PS= watch her interview of McCain about two weeks ago; she practically gives him a bj.

I wish the campaign hadn't said anything after the interview. Without that this would be an unequivocal success for Biden.

It still is a success for him, but the unnecessary reprisal created a talking point.

stupid librul media. See how conservatives NEVER get any breaks ??? See ???

I'd really like to see a mash-up of the Biden interview with the Palin/Couric interview. I'm picturing a sort of "dueling gotcha journalism." 'Cept the in the Biden interview it was the journalist who done got got.

Bwahahahahahahahha! LIBRUL MEDIA FTW!11111 ELEVENTY!

/that is all

FormlessOne: Why complain? She tried to do a hostile interview - Biden handled it well. Palin, meanwhile, is still throwing a fit about Katie friggin' Couric. Barbara West may have actually assisted the Obama/Palin campaign by once again demonstrating that smart answers delivered with a cool head beats babbled talking points any day.

Because this eliminates the "Why is Biden afraid of hard questions?" like from the Fark Independents. Notice how none of them have shown up in this thread?

Its here
http://www.wftv.com/video/17712615/index.html

um... did i miss something.

i read (i thought i did, anyway) the Kos and Blue Tidal Wave posts on this, but i think i missed something.

i read:
Barbara West is married to Wade West
Wade West is a media consultant
Wade West donated to Republicans
Wade West has been a paid consultant to 85 members of congress and some cabinet members.

I didn't read:

Wade West is a paid consultant of the McCain campaign.
Wade West donated money to McCain's campaign
Wade West is directly tied to McCain.

Did I miss something?

I'm just suprised that she didn't carve a "B" into her face.

/underachiever

I guess we're all idiots for not guessing that sooner.

So sad. She obviously didn't even want Biden to answer the questions. Every single one of them was designed to tarnish Obama by association. Her producer must have also been in on the dirty deed. Neither has any journalistic integrity. You can ask hard questions without couching them in such inflammatory terms.

Yup, that's "conservative media" for you.

And, on a side note, Stewart has a LOT more class than this woman does.

Joe Biden did a great job hitting right back at that hatchet job of an interview. These are the same people who whined because Katie Couric asked Sarah Palin what newspapers she read and then asked Palin to elaborate on what she meant by "All of Them"? Just imagine if a "reporter" interviewed McCain or Palin in an equivalent manner. The outrage would be tremendous and be the leading story on FOX News. It is true, these people have no shame.

Biden handled this extremely well, if that kind of 'loaded' questions were fired at Mrs. Palin, she would have been crying after the first one.

Indeed it should not be a suprise that Biden did handle this well, what could be a point of discussion is the 'biased talking point parasites injected into regular questions'.

What's the use of asking Joe Biden these questions if you're tube-feeding the mouth-breathers the - Republican - answer through them?

There's nothing wrong with asking for details about certain topics, or to delve a little deeper and see what you can find, after all, that's the job of the media.

But this interview wasn't anything like that. These questions all were booby-trapped with Republican slander talking points and Joe Biden did a great job disarming each and everyone of them, and perhaps lobbing one back at that miscreant, too.

The worst part, my parents thinks it's a win over Biden, He didn't answer the question, he didn't Answer the question...

(of course these are the same people that are saying that after he is in office he will bring in his muslim views etc..etc...etc...)

I wonder if it's possible to rig their TV to not get Fox News.

"Obama/Palin..." Feh. Should've been "Obama/Biden..."

You know, "What newspapers do you read?" is not that difficult of a question. Other just as difficult zingers may also include:

"What movies do you like?"
"What's your favorite color?"
"Who is your favorite author?"
"What's the job of the Vice President?"

Oh... wait a minute...
