Did the Obama campaign FINALLY get a tough question from the media?

Question

99.9% of the media has acted like they are part of the Obama campaign. Joe Biden finally got a couple of tough questions yesterday, and the Obama campaign has decided not to have anything to do with that TV station again- what a bunch of sissies!

The questions were about how Obama's re-distribution of wealth is exactly the same thing that Karl Marx wrote about his Socialist vision.

Answer 1

This is an excellent question, Luke. I've watched the video at the link that Freedom provided and it was very telling. As usual, instead of answering the question directly, Biden (as does Obama), began talking about Bush and how McCain is bad for the country because he is another Bush. I absolutely agree that Obama's plan for Income Equality is nothing more than Karl Marx's "income redistribution" wrapped up with a different colored bow. It is the basic tenet outlined in "The Communist Manifesto." Under Obama, we will all be equal all right, but equally poor.



I also checked out a link on YouTube to corroborate one of my earlier posts about most middle Americans not supporting Obama for this very reason. Check it out:

Answer 2

Its absolutely sick how partisan the media has been this election year. Its nice to see some footage of them not coddling the democratic candidate.

His acorn argument isn't very good. Comparing Obama who worked for acorn, legally defended acorn, and has been lucrative for accorn in the senate to McCain complimenting Acorn's efforts as being equivalent?



"1% of the populace makes more than 21% of the wealth, that wasn't the way before George Bush"



Bidens a little off. If anything Bush hurt the wealthy on those stats.



"In the United States, in the last survey year, 1998, the richest 1 percent of households owned 38 percent of all wealth. "

"The top 5 percent own more than half of all wealth.

In 1998, they owned 59 percent of all wealth. Or to put it another way, the top 5 percent had more wealth than the remaining 95 percent of the population, collectively"

Love how biden says 'Obama is not spreading the wealth around' when Obama said word for word spread the wealth around.

Answer 3

I don't think so! The majority of the mainstream media are left wing media and I believe that he'll get a free pass from them. If the media scrutinize him just like what they do to Palin (who is by the way, she's just VP candidate). Biden mentioning about a test for Obama for the next 6 month of his presidency is not even questioned nor interviewed by any media what he meant! Obama's school records at Occidental and Columbia wasn't put out by far, as well as his thesis at Harvard! Is Obama untouchable? I believe that there's some kind of conspiracy

in Obama's leaning democrats! Just imagine about the lawsuit about his questionable citizenship by a democrat was thrown out by the Pennsylvania court! If Mr. Berg is only asking about the "VAULT" long version certificate,m why can't Obama produce his Birth certificate if that is what his fellow Democrat wants? To many questionable unanswered about Obama, why does the majority of Mainstream media giving him a passed? Is it because they are so desperate about having a president in their side or making a history on their side?

Go figure!

Answer 4

Biden is so incompetent. How on earthwould he handle tough questions as a vice president

Answer 5

Joe Biden laughs and shakes his head just like Barack Obama when he gets pissed. You can tell they have the same coach.

Answer 6

Yes, they did and you see how it was handled. Biden attempted to belittle the person asking the question and then the campaign pulled out of future interviews.



Welcome to the America under Obama. If he doesn't approve of your question, there will be repercussions.



Anyone who thinks this is just a media issue needs to wake up. Obviously the only information we are going to get under an Obama administration is the information he wants you to have.



My God this sounds like a communist regime.

Answer 7

yes and apparently cant' handle the heat in the kitchen....

should be a hint people that if elected anyone who disagrees will be shut down

Answer 8

If Obama can't handle tough reporters,how will he handle tough problems of our country

Answer 9

I don't think that is very tough, it is pretty obvious.



However, the Media seems to have its own agenda. Why didn't they report on this Iraq vet protester of McCain at the Presidential debate getting his face smashed by a police horse hoof? It isn't as if there weren't tons of major media in the area, for the debate....

Answer 10

I'd like to hand that reporter a medal. It's funny that the Obama campaign isn't willing to take questions regarding its own plans for America.



But then, that's how it's been all along. Every time Obama gets a tough question, he ducks and runs for cover behind obvious lies and misdirection.



Obama: "I didn't know Wright was saying those things."

Obama: "Ayers was a guy in my neighborhood."

Obama: "I represented ACORN years ago. And that's the extent of my involvement with them."

Answer 11

yes and their fanatical, and rather angry reaction should worry people.



They have always engaged in a strategy of defending Obama by attacking anyone who questions him.



The only reason to do this is if you cannot defend him on the merits of the issues.

Answer 12

I just saw this on the news. It's hilarious as well as very telling of the Obama agenda.

Answer 13

That was priceless, huh?! With their elitist attitude in response to tough, unbiased questions, makes people concerned about how they would respond IF they were put in control of our nation.

Answer 14

yes!to bad it was from a rookie!

Answer 15

Here's the video.. They should have asked these questions a long time ago.

Answer 16

I just wish Obama's silver insulation would wear off of his empty suit.

Answer 17

OMG. Who was that lady? Was that Karl Rove's finger mistress?



I think Biden did an excellent job of truthfully answering each of these loaded question. But they weren't hard questions at all. I imagine most of them came from browsing through Answers.com. That reporter could have answered all of them herself just by going to factchec.org and finding out that each was based on a lie or Republican smear.



Can you imagine Sarah Palin in that hot seat?



And may Atheos hep us if you complete morons elect John McCain.

Answer 18

This entire campaign and election has been decided from the start. The Media has stolen the election from the population - I for one really despise them for this.

Answer 19

I'm in love with that reporter! :)

Answer 20

L OL You have been watching too much Fox news the most one sided news (if you could call it news) agency ever. What you call redistribution of wealth true Americans call making the extremely wealthy pay their fair share.

Answer 21

Every president does that in some way....what do you call this bailout....or did you volunteer a couple thousand of your dollars....



She obviously does not know that Marxism and socialism are not interchangeable...pick one or the other...

Answer 22

You mean like the tough questions that Palin has struggled with...what is the job of the VP, what news publications do you read?

Answer 23

he said...is that even a serious question?



ya...thats a tough question...also, where she said "Does Obama really talk with Satan and plan on bringing up the army of the damned?"



he called it perfectly...he called people whom said that far right nutjobs



WTG Biden, call it how it is

Answer 24

who is that person



that is a journalist

Answer 25

all they do is state problems and blame "Bush". It gets so tired.
