Barbara West coddles McCain

[rich4444hrsm]

3:42 ~ And they were right... BTW you have more HOUSES than you can count

To all of you libs, this is a PERFECT example of how EVERY other station, newspaper, and AP story leans HARD LEFT.

Example, spending the first 30 seconds ripping Obama, and then "why haven't you gone after him"... typical LIBERAL reporting, done with a Republican twist. You need to watch YOUR side for this. YOU WON, remember?

Republicans KNOW this is a slanted story... they are trying to explain that to YOU!

[NakedCh0ke]

wow these comments are funny. One interview where Biden was given questions that were not total softballs....and you all get your panties in a wad. It shows how selective people really are in what they "choose" to see. All this garbage about her being a shill for the republicans is crazy talk. Even if she is....how does she compare to K. Olbermann, Chris Matthews, Wolf Blizter, or any reporter that works on CNN?

[verbalhigh]

I wouldn't talk fixed news is the biggest smear machine out there and growing

[Katmundu]

I thought she would reach through the screen and kiss im.

[Katmundu]

Compare this to the interview with Biden.

She's a disgraceful interviewer.Softballs for McCain and bullets for Biden. Horrible.

Sorry, Barbara, it didn't work.

[miguelin97223]

What a tramp.

Her questions to Biden: "admit that Obama sucks."

Her questions to McCain: "why don't you talk more about why Obama sucks?"

It's all about Obama allegedly sucking with her. Blondie, please! Go suck your Republican strategist husband.

[wildn0102]

Journalist around the world; This tramp set you guys and gals back about 25years. Thank you Barbara for those tough questions for mccain. I can't wait for the 2011 primaries for the republicans with sarah, pawlenty,mitt,rudy,charlie crist and hopefully newt? Hillarious....

[cmurdawaldo]

watching her interview biden and now mccain back to back, is one of the most absurd things i have ever witnessed in my life. truly surreal. i want to meet this amazing woman

[RedxThorax]

"Note she said "voter registration fraud" and he said "VOTER FRAUD"

Are you fucking serious? Sounds like a terribly cheap ass excuse to point something out. Considering you have no proof he's trying to exaggerate, and you know he isn't trying to considering he never mentioned this on the campaign trail himself. Seriously, kill yourself.

[mmmmmfreshcope]

f*ck fox news... just shut up already

[lifeofwiley777]

If Mickey Mouse tries to go and vote, then this reporter will have a point, other than the one atop her head. But to think that ACORN is somehow more of a threat than purging voters by the tens of thousands is insane.

[dyerdreams]

barbara west is a tool

[colosold]

Barbara West is garbage. Journalists are supposed to be objective and not lead the viewer. THIS crap leads the viewer especially when you watch this interview immediately after watching the Joe Biden interview. Warren Buffet (mega rich) KNOWS Obama will increase his taxes to give a break to the middle class (the people who made people like Warren Buffet rich), but hey, maybe him and Colin Powell are socialists right? Republican morons.

[RichardMNixon]

First note that I hope as hard as I can that McCain and Palin lose.

That said, the middle class did not make Buffet rich, Buffet made Buffet rich. The country runs on the backs of the rich and I can accept that it is practical to do so, but it is not right, and it is not fair; please do not pretend it is.

[StoogeWatcher]

What do you Democrats know about journalism? You still worship Dan Rather!

[StoogeWatcher]

Joe Biden is a coward.

[notsustainable]

Wow - after the Biden interview, I expected her to ask McCain some tough questions. Instead, I'm just surprised she didn't offer McCain a back rub.

Clearly, Ms. West is a fascist hack.

[StoogeWatcher]

You liberals are fascists.

[bamatecangel7]

Good interview on both Joe Blow as well as McCain. Maybe journalism is not dead... at least until they attempt to put Talk Radio out of biz....

[cidlockie]

So the first question she asks is about ACORN, and she claims not to be biased? What a cunt.

[majito10]

Wow, she is a horribly biased journalist! Throughout the interview, she was playing up McCain & asking mediocre questions. However, when she interviewed Biden, she immediately went for blood. I didn't like her negatory tone in that interview to begin with, but at least treat the interviews equally!

[gloconti]

This is supposed to be "just as tough" as the Biden interview? Voter fraud is very diff. than registration fraud. Acorn has become a whipping boy. "Just a guy in the neighborhood" used as a quote out of context is a vicious lie that McCain repeats everyday. HE THEN WENT ON TO SAY... who is a Professor of English in Chicago who I know but have not received any kind of official endorsement from, he is not someone I exchange ideas with on a regular basis. He engaged in detestable acts 40yrs ago

[orlfred]

Her Biden interview was the most honest piece of journalism I've seen in years.

She Rocks.

[kevin7california]

watch?v=NrzXLYA_e6E&feature=bz­b302

[Ayelookiepeter]

fuck this girl. acting like gave fair questions to biden. Shes talking about all the things the mccain campaign accuse obama of doing. Fuck u barbara. Unfair shit.

[Sdaye88]

Her questions to Biden were fair game; he is running for VP and supporting the candidate for POTUS, for crying out loud. That merits tough questions and if Biden has good answers to them, there's nothing to worry about. Everyone's just mad because he bombed that interview. However, her questions to McCain were not hard enough. I guess she decided to leave that up to the MSM, which coddles Obama/Biden and asks the tough questions to McCain/Palin.

[tenracsha]

McCain has the dreamy serenity of impending defeat hanging about him like a little raincloud

[ZEBBS14]

Vote or McCain will win!

[blakefavre]

Mickey Mouse isn't gonna show up to vote you dumb bitch.

[latentsun]

lol... The more they talk about Obama, the less people want to vote for McCain.

[hav9k]

I'm still surprised she could keep up with the teleprompter.

[latentsun]

Hi Bar-bara,

I am talking like a robot because I must stick to my talking poi-nts.

[loov1]

Sad that he is trying to win the presidency this way instead of talking about why he is qualified he starts spiting conspiracy theories to get retards to vote for him.

[kaylavy]

indeed she's for the rich

[Color1377]

I would be okay with her gruesome death. In fact I'd laugh and dance in the streets

[Longsday]

She might as well be working for his campaign.

[YukiIsoya08]

Barbara West is disgusting. She's definitely NOT an unbiased News Anchor.

[catflasher]

I think more than anything this woman just loves to here herself talk.

[tbjw1]

Why were the questions to Biden nothing but negatives about Obama, and the questions to McCain nothing but negatives about Obama? Fair questions would be to have McCain answer nothing but negatives about himself and Palin.

[Terminalsanity]

So she busts Biden balls and low balls McCain. There's the liberal media for you. Please.

[Musicians4Obama]

A close election again??? Find out what this means at Musicians4Obama! Pass it on!

[chrisc10]

Yawn...

[sirdaveysockrocker]

OMG what a bitch! she practically calls obama and biden terrorists and here she is blowing mccains wrinkly old dong. GAH! someone fire this hag!

[Kistlebop]

Too big of a deal is being made of idiots like this woman and Joe the fucking dueshbag. Vote who you want, just don't hate your neighbor because of who they are voting for.

[Euranell]

Mickey Mouse should be able to vote!

[thereallurker]

McCain knows the interview and its content is such a joke, he can barely make a complete sentence.

[dariusdmj]

WOW, what HARD HITTING questions she asked there! (<--sarcastic) We need a side by side between this interview and Biden's. West is trying so hard to become a Fox News "Commentator" its ridiculous. Maybe her husband has something to do with it??

[Hobinism]

barbara sucks mccains balls

[stsiehta2]

Barbara West, you stand before free thinkers naked in the town square and we are all laughing at you!

[champoldw8]

Hey hey I want to ask McCain a question too.

The aliens that invaded the planet last year are they coming this year too?.,because I heard they are going to vote for Obama.

[healy61]

How about little candor about your relationship with Keating.Congress has already declared your bad judgement.

[champoldw8]

Bravo.. well staged drama.,let's see all the ignorants swallow that giant pill.

[justnich]

She'll be on Faux news within a year.

[C4Warhead]

Her husband is a Republican operative, she's merely playing for a spot on Fox News.

[Viruspirate]

LMFAO I just watched the biden interview with her this woman is not a journalist all she did was ask bait questions and she asks easy questions to mccain............she should be fired.

[sands134]

Is this the full interview?

[cjhfunk]

Mccain/Palin are a disgrace the spread hate and this fake reporter is a disgrace to media as a whole. NOBODY believes Mccain after years of his lies and scandels. He was a horrible student, soldier, and politician. Its no wonder some of these people want another dummy as our president. Baaaah says the sheep.

[littlevietboy]

I guess when she said her interview with McCain was "tough", she forgot that there's a thing called Youtube now? God bless easy online access to these feeds. I think the internet will help move this country closer towards the middle... eventually anyhow.

[cbman739]

Media bias against Obama.

[CetraTJ]

I love how they go on and on about acorn and voter fraud, while McCain's campaigners are ACTUALLY under two seperate investigations for VOTER FRAUD.

[pebud2002]

Right wing tool!!! Why not ask about caging list, voter suppression?

[asthenic]

LMFAO @ this woman

[wldk38]

Old people are so funny!!!

[Richardgwm]

She is an advocate, not a journalist. She'll fit right in when she gets that big job at Fox News.

[MojoJuana]

the mcfullofshit/pitbullshit '08 ticket will go down on the pages of american history as a shit stain!!!

[iamthebyron]

Way to give a "probing, penetrating" interview, Ms. West....those aren't softball questions, those are tee-ball questions!

[vmvigilante]

I didn't know that Mickey Mouse was going to be able to vote. Or the guy who was registered 21 times can only vote 1 time.

Oh, and John McCain is just as connected to Acorn as Obama. He even spoke at an Acorn event.

[gregfl]

typical. She attacks Barack in her questions to Biden, and attacks Barack in her questions to McCain. This woman isn't a journalist, she is a repub hack.

[skisal2002]

This is all what happens when you are losing...there is not one word in this interview about the economy, education, health care, foreign policy. You know why - because McCain is wrong on the issues! So when you're wrong, you have to go negative....ayers ayers ayers, acorn acorn...obama is black, etc. Republican Losers!

[slinkmeat]

OMG this bitch is a liar. She said she was tough on McCain. Bullshit she put baby powder on his bottoms

[terisbub]

LOL

[gmcjetpilot]

OBAMAJUSTSAYNO' "Voter Fraud"

What fraud. You mean voter registration errors? That? Here is real VOTER fraud:

Nathan Sproul, a renowned GOP operative was just arrested on TRUE voter fraud and suppression. He was hired by McCain for a little under $200,000!

ACORN has NOT been found guilty of voter FRAUD but voter registration irregularities. Clearly they had stupid people doing registration and they & the bad registrations will get thrown out.

Don't worry Obama will win honestly.

[truescorpio14]

watch the new video of her questioning mccain, the questions are FAR more difficult, but this shows survival instincts not good journalism, after other news networks show the contrasting interviews between mccain and biden her reputation as a journalist were in danger, of course she was going to do a new interview with mccain to ask tough questions, but not because she wanted to, but because she HAD to in order to preserve her reputation

[gmcjetpilot]

reputation? Her hubby is a Republican communications operative.

She asked why does your campaign suck (not in those words). Well no shit, every one knows that. Conservative pundits for a month have been going WTF about McCain, his campaign and is VP pick. Does McCain seems drugged in this interviewed. May be he got a hold of some of Cindy's pill stash. (ouch my bad, sorry, ha ha)

Seriously why does not just ask "How long has it been since you stopped beating your wife."

[Vainebekonnes]

I don't think this is the interview she was referencing. This was the interview from the 14th. I think she did another one on the 27th.

[roxanneveg]

"Senator McCain, is it true that your headquarters runs off of rainbows and candy canes while Obamas headquarters runs on the souls of murdered childen?"

[roxanneveg]

Boy, she was brutal! LOL What a pathetic hack!

[piesho]

So where's the "toughest" question she told O'Reilly she asked McCain?

[skigambia]

Amen Rapture, the talking heads are trying to villify ACORN. They are following the law. Granted they should have been a little more careful in their hiring, but they arent attempting to fraud the system

[McCainHasAlzheimers]

After that massage, I'm surprised she didn't reach through the screen to give him a "happy ending".

[iconhkhk]

Tough interview? Anyone who thinks this equal to Bidens interview is a retard. She probably has a "Drill Baby Drill" sticker on her truck.

[sircosmokramer]

when i saw her on oreilly saying she gave the same kind of tough interview to mccain just like the 1 she did with biden i thought really? so here i am watching this tough interview. funny thing i thought i saw another 1 just like this 1 made by another great reporter?? or was it her? on a disguise looking like hannity!! it could be after all arent we close to halloween!! they must trade customes and tough questions lol those fox reporters.

[RuRaptureReady]

I used to feel sorry for Barbara after her husband Wade made a pass at me during a business meeting. But now I think the two of them deserve each other... same level of integrity and honesty.

[nmcnmb]

RuRaptureReady..

Nice try at character assassination with anonymity.

But who's buying it?

[RuRaptureReady]

Notice how McCain doesn't say anything "bad" about Obama and Ayers... because he does not want to outright lie. However he "shades" it by saying... "we need to know" ...as if the question has not been answered. We need to know McCain's close ties to G. Gordon Liddy... a convicted Watergate criminal who admitted to plotting to murder a journalist. McCain had a fundraiser at Liddy's home and said he was "proud of him."

[sweetfatman]

Comedy gold.

[RuRaptureReady]

ACORN flagged the fraudulent registrations when they turned them in. They turned in the bad registrations because they are REQUIRED to by law. ACORN was the victim here... because they paid people for work they didn't do. You can register "Mickey Mouse" 20 times... but he still has to show up, with ID, and only get's to vote once. Fraudulent registrations do NOT equate to voter fraud. Two different kettles of fish.

[zeppo102]

West is such a pathetic, partisan hack...she doesn't even try to hide it. Compare these softly lobbed questions that imply wrongdoing from Obama when interviewing McCain....versus the ridiculous questions she asked Biden in the new interview.

[cbritton11]

You're a typical left winger. What's with your idiotic comments and all the "WTF's". Is that how an intelligent human communicates? Forget taxes, abortion, the war, etc. It's ignorant people like you that keep me from even considering a part of the left wing.

[sommeflame34]

Barbara West is ashamed being a Republican when Larry King asks her if she is, she danced around the question but never answered it. Yes, an experienced reporter has to ask tough questions, sub-prime market didnt exist 13 years ago. Being a Senator for 26 years McCain should have known this and pointed out this error to her. For partisan reason both are not telling the truth.

[DrRonPaul4President]

Yes, Ron Paul endorsed the Constitution Party Candidate Chuck Baldwin!!!

[DrRonPaul4President]

Ron Paul was the best so I'm voting or writing-in Chuck Baldwin for President. Cast a vote of principle, check out Baldwin08. com

[sonisisuper]

What?! What the hell was that? The very first question this fraud asked McCain was, "Why haven't you gone after him on these serious issues." This is the kind of thing his campaign surrogates would say. Fair and balanced, all right.

"Do you feel the Democrats have tried to paint you into a box?" This passes for journalism these days?

What a Republican shill this lady is. How come more people aren't comparing these two interviews?

[didel1955]

The Republican Shit Machine is probably preparing another electoral fraud. Larger than the one in 2000 and 2004 combined. These assholes know that they have to prevent all those stunned at the news of this old fart's victory (McCain's) from revolting and thus they invent all the stories about ACORN and the like. It's also useful in the very probable event Obama wins, to discredit and illegitimize his presidency in the minds of fucking idiots like the ones we must deal with here.

[LowphatMelk]

Why would a candidate with a 6 to 11 point lead in most polls feel the need to steal an election? Why would that campaign jeopardize its integrity? It wouldn't. This ACORN issue is much ado about nothing, and one of the many symptoms of a faltering Republican campaign. Oh yeah. Barbara West is an idiot.

[explorers21]

200,000 illegitimate votes being held by the district attorney in Ohio and she just happens to be refusing to process the legitimacy of said votes. The difference between victory in Ohio was less than 150k, so I'd say voter fraud is a pretty big deal.

Do some research on Acorn before u just write it off.

[acoqueran]

her delivery of questions to mccain are softballs to the high heat that she shot to Biden. now if i am mistaken, as a REPORTER, shouldn't her approach to questions to both candidates be the same??? this is the problem people are having. not that she is a tough interviewer, she obviously took it easy on McCain while headhunting for Biden. Those are the facts...and that is not proper journalism...

[ZayceM]

What a cunt.

[bluesborn]

Yes McCain is "bitterly disappointed" in the Lewis observations.Now let's see..how many people were targeted in the recent church shootings in Tennessee due to the suspect's hatred of Gays and Liberals whose fanatical solidarity with the ideology of various rightwing pundits and radio talkers drove him over the edge?I'm just askin...

[miami2315]

Can someone take Mcains rusty little balls out of this whore's mouth.........Bitch sounds like a fucking GOP puppet.

[jodylax]

I can't believe anyone would call her a CUNT. She is an IGNORANT CUNT. WHat a fucking whore. It is easy to see she is auditioning for Fox News. What a CUNT - What A FUCKING CUNT!

[tiffyd012001]

you sound like a Democrat...

[omarieswifey]

is this what she calls fair?

[siavash8p]

What a cunt

[lipby]

What a cunt.

[bissy33700]

get off his balls! this is proposterous.

[Baxterstockman0332]

Dumb whore sounds like a fuggin robot, you can read a teleprompter wow bitch...your time has passed ya old rat, These repub bastards stole votes in fla. 2000, How dare they even insinuate voter fraud?!! Acceptance now, OBAMA pres. 08'

[reddyjc]

Here is a question:

Senator McCain, you keep saying you are no President Bush. Can you name one policy, either economic or foreign policy, that you are proposing that is different from President Bush's?

[lexavier1]

This is what she calls being "tough" on McCain?She could have asked him about his relationship w/Keating,about the years of racist,sexist remarks & jokes,about his birth in Panama,about cheating on his wife w/a woman 17 years younger who he married for money,about voters being disenfranchised by Repubs,about why his tax policies exclusively benefit the wealthy and big biz(read his site its pretty clear)which is why he is backed by CEO's and major corporations.She is definitely a GOP mouthpiece!

[gothman92]

obama!

[bluepointofview]

she's dumb enough, right wing enough, but not hot enough to be on Fox.

[truth1234567890]

Her husband is a GOP operative.

[rockyd6907]

The idea of a liberal media is the most successful conspiracy theory today. When you run out of arguements and your ideology is proven not to work, then you have to argue by assertion and attack. Attacking the media as liberal is a way of avoiding good points made by the media to arguments that have no traction. If the Republicans had good points, they could stand on the merits of those points instead of trying to make it sound like the media conspires against them.

[skerryred]

Mmmmm Mrs West bias much???? She another dumb fox news blonde wannabe....

[toriseh]

She was even putting words into Mccain's mounth.

[bodah44]

when you compare this to the Biden interview this is scandelous. this woman is desperate for a job on fox news

[FlowerClown]

This Lady is a hack. Please make sure Fox gives her a lifetime contract.

Vote Obama!

[Seljalandfoss]

You're a fucking idiot.

[sameerjagtap]

Barbara West is an embarassment to journalism. That's all I'll say. I've watched her interviews of Biden and McCain. She should be fired.

[xRyanx112]

MSM should expose this!

[truescorpio14]

oh my god listen to her tone she sounds like shes speaking to a 5 year old especially with the cut and run question, this is an embarrassment to journalism

[airhoppz]

This is outstanding. She's obviously reading from the teleprompter. I can't wait to see Barbara West on Faux News sitting next to Hannity the anti-Semite!

[EuroCntricHipyChrist]

nothing like being able to see the interview and the evidence. These weren't softball questions, they were t-ball questions. I just hope news organizations play the interviews side by side. I know faux news isn't doing that, but then again I expect Barbara West will be their newest hire.
