Wow. "Aren't you embarrassed by..." may win the prize for absolute WORST way to frame an interview question EVER. And in such an accusatory, bitchy tone of voice, too.
I just got done filing my taxes for 2010. I made $39,000.00 for the year, I got no "tax break" what so ever...Obama is nothing more then a liar and deceiver just like GWB, 2 feathers of the same bird. We need a new bird!
I shivered when I watched this video. Obama is elected and the economy is worse. He's spent almost a trillion on the stimulus package and no jobs were created except government jobs. Power grabs every Friday morning whether it's the banks, GM, regulating Wall Street and corporations. You'd have to be really really stupid to elect any Democrat in November 2010. Wake up America and don't be labeled a useful idiot by the people you elect into office.
@leftoverbacon No they didn't. Have you bought a pack of smokes? Went tanning? Own a landline phone?....Those taxes are skyrocketing. Is an extra dollar per pack within Obamas first week as a matter of fact a tax increase for the middle class?
Until now, I have always considered the american people, a people who likes to be screwed over, just like this journalist tries to do with her viewers.
The station probably came up with these questions, not her. Although, if I were her, I don't think I could've read those questions and kept a straight face.
Thats what obama and Biden do when asked a hard question. They only want sofe ball questions. obama can't talk with out his tele-promter and Biden can't answer a question without his notes. The two do not have a clue as to what in the world is going on.........God help us !
I'd like to know what station this is. It's worse then Fox News with the blatantly biased insinuations. Every rumor, innuendo and smear is packed into her questions like a Salem witch hunt. Biden showed a lot of class not to lose his composure. This anchor and her producer should be fired.
"... about Obama turning America into a socialist country much like Sweden"
Wtf, what's so terrible about that? Sweden, along with Norway, Finland and the other Scandinavian countries have been the most successful countries in the world after WW2.
very true. and also, in a news article, if obama ran with the same policies in norway he would have been considered an extreem-rightwinged; far to the right of both the concervatives and the progress party. I really despise the ignorance of some people.
So yes, scandinavia is to the left of most politicians in america, but it isn't really socialism. I would of course prefer more right-winged and perhaps less liberal and more authorative government, but that wont happen for a while.
Whats wrong with socialism?? Nothing! You can`t compare socialism to communism. They`re two different systems. It`s just like comparing conservatism to fascism!
You could use a little education. Why should I pay for people who dont work? Why should the nations successful pay for deadbeats? And where in the constitution does it proclaim free health care is a right? Your right we are mad that Denny Hasert and Tom delay and corupt GOP members caused this idiot to become president. If Obama is so smart and gifted then take the tele prompters away from him,and lets here someone ask him a tough question ,Like why government bailouts have not worked yet
god American journalist are ignorant... Marx had a different theory on the "distribution of wealth" and there is no way you can compare the two since they are political figures from different times and from extremely different societies. Those retards should take a look at a f**k history book
Liberal politics will provide people with free healhcare, free education, a clean globe, more control with wall st, so that they can`t kill the economy once more. Conservatism is wrong. The american people has spoken loud and clear and voted in the most liberal President since Roosevelt. I like it:)
I am a bit confused as your reply said i compared socialismwith communism?? when i said i wanted more right-winged government, i was refering to norway's government is to leftist. even the right-winged parties are left to obama. i want more obama. by the way, be careful when you use the word liberal. you can still be left-winged and not be libera. liberal is more abou the social policies, such as giving gay-marriage rights, pro-abortions, legalizing drugs, more free immigration policy, etc.
I know a lot about Norway. My former girlfriend is a norwegian. Norway is one of the richest countrys in the world. They have freedom of speech and the right to vote. Education is free, healthcare is free. Norways prime minister is the leader of the labor party and is pretty popular. Sweden has a more conservative government, and are not so rich as Norway. They didn`t even help Norway when Germany attacked in 1940. My ex-girlfriend told me a lot about Scandinavia.
okay, but look: norway has its problems. there no control in immigration, the labour party are doing a coalation with SV, a feminist socialist party. They have the ideology that taxes should never be cut, only raised, even during recession such as now. The only reason norway is rich is because of the oil, and the vast nationalization of corporations. those are the two only reasons. the prime minister is notas strong as id like him to be. plus: why hasn't norway bought iceland yet?
So what if Norway is rich only because of oil. Why are Saudi Arabia rich, why are Kuwait rich?? I don`t think people in Norway gives a shit where their money comes from as long as they keep coming! And i did some research. Norwegians pay less tax than sweds and dans! In Denmark almost everybody pay 50% of their income in tax!
thanks. so you just shot yourself in the foot. you pretty much have contradicted yourself. proves my point about supporting more right-winged ideology. thank you very much.
But remember, norway has the highest consumption tax, especially on tobacco and acohol, so i dont know what would be best...
I`m just pointing out that Norway even with a socialist government has lower tax rates than Sweden and Denmark who has conservative govnerments. That proves my point. Socialism is good. The myth that they tax you to death is wrong. Just look at Norway. You`re country is almost perfect, at least compared to the U.S. You don`t pay to much tax, at least far from 50% and you have free education and healthcare.
It's surprising how far, in US, the word "socialism" is considered a bad word. I mean, in Europe Socialist parties are among the biggest ones and for certain Europe is not USSR. It seems that to be a socialist equals to be Sovietic bolscevik in America! Come on!
lol - that's the worst attempt to smear a respectable politician that I've ever seen. I still can't figure out who is the more retarded - the idiot who wrote those questions or the imbecile they hired to ask them.
If this woman had any credible points to make, her outrageous comments were so ridiculous that she sounded like a right wing robot. I am definitely an Obama supporter but did understand some of the concerns of the Republican party. This type of b.s. makes me start to forget to that it exists all together.
She is a joke, Biden and Obama know what they're doing... The country believes in them as do I. He is simply giving the Middle class a tax cut. why do the high class need another tax cut? They DONT!
Go Obama and Biden 2008
AND 2012
Congratulations to the President and Vice President of the United States of America
He is not giving a tax cut persay mabey a little now but he is not planning on signing the bush tax cuts again! so what does this mean it means in 2010 you taxes will go up! Do a little homework and stop listening to bsnbc or cnn or anyother news network. do your own research.
Ridiculous questions and Biden tells her exactly what he thinks. Gotta love this guy. Not to undermine Obama but I think Biden should be the president.
I like your response, Honestly I believe They make a great team. And i know Obama will listen to Everthing Biden says. Most people dont underestant how intellegent and qualified Biden is. Personnaly i think Obama should be president/ Biden VP. But Either way, they will serve the Country Well
Perhaps now Joe Biden can help a child in DE who was segregated out of his classes and only allowed to use the nurse's restroom because he reported being harassed and threatened on a daily basis. JIM CROW is not the answer to school violence caused by race.
I am so proud of America today. The past IS now the past. Let's all move on. What a fantastic day to be a citizen of the world. Love to every single one of you. Johnny, Scotland
this is how liberal our media is when something like this is barely known about, and if sarah palin said that every one in the news would be bashing her and saying that she is this and that
FYI, Sweden has a higher quality of life than the US, and Sweden is a free-enterprise Socialist country, meaning that its economy is still a market economy.
Rodger that. If, God forbid, one of these idiot racist would-be Obama assassins hits his mark, and Biden becomes president, then we're in good hands. You have to be Limbaugh or Fox News brainwashed to see otherwise. McCain would make a great president, if he didn't have a total idiot waiting in the ranks if he (likely) croaks from his aged ailments. Fear Palin (if she doesn't go to jail for her abuse of power). Fear anyone who can so easily be puppeteered by anyone from the radical Right.
Obama repeatedly voted to increase taxes for the middle-class, those making $44,000. Truth is, the way to increase tax revenues is to have a healthy economy. When people work they pay taxes. Unfortunately, the Obama ticket wants to pay for big ideas in part by increasing business taxes, but businesses like mine cant continue to compete globally if we have to increase our prices to pay more taxes. Want to restore the American Dream? Consider the McCain platform.
Haha, the more I hear Biden talk, the more I like him. He answered every question intelligently, and that anchor was such a McCain supporter its disturbing. I love the Biden joked at her outrageous questions. These arent tough questions...these are ignorant questions. "Lets get real here!" Thumbs up to Biden.
Some interviewers are horribly ill-informed. I mean, saying something like "a socialist country like Sweden" - geez, do some research before you throw around statements like that women!
Joe Biden couldn't take the time to help a white child being racially targeted for harassment in a school district less than twenty minutes from his house. The school district got away with telling the white victim not to go to classes and that he could only use the nurse's restroom. This is what is helping to turn america into a nation of two classes in education public - full of crimes and violence and private -full of kids whose parents actually care about the success of their kids.
Anyone who has objectively studied and knows the Career of BIDEN knows the man is a total phony status quo Conventional do nothing Senator who is the opposite of change and Reform.
this guy is the OPPOSITE of what we need as VP, in fact men like this are part of the problem , certainly NOT the solution.
the evidence for this is he got a pathetic only 2 percent of the Dem Primary Vote ! Obviously 98 percent of dems and independents said NO to slick talking phony JOE !
The news media have the duty to report FACTS of the real world and unfortunately for conservatives, "reality has a well-known liberal bias"!
In order to please republicans, some news outlets (such as fox & Co) have to distort reality and present it in a surrealistic way!
This "sleazy" anchor asked Biden a question that was simply RIDICULOUS, ABSURD and full of innuendo - Biden's reaction was of simple DISBELIEF! He, imho, answered the question straight and clearly!
Biden's so used to kid-gloves treatment by the "mainstream" media (all of them adoring worshippers of the heal-all-ills god-king from Chicago, and big donors to His campaign), he's flustered by the rare reporter actually asking tough, serious questions.
Yay for her! Earlier, she squeezed McCain thru the wringer, too, but oh, no, that wasn't news--it's "news" if a reporter doesn't follow the party line and makes a Democrat squirm fielding some hardballs for a change.
McCain Vs Obama Inbred Vs Mixed Breed Past Vs Future Low IQ Speech Vs Fonzie Shakespeare Bludgeon & Bomb Vs Diplomatic Efforts Backwards Evolution Vs Renewable Revolution Corporate Oil Puppet Vs Democratic Nation War for Profit Vs Peace for Progress Every Man for Himself Vs A More Perfect Union More of the Same Vs Now for somethin Different Fear Vs Hope McCain Vs Obama NO WAY, NO HOW, NO MCSAME!
Why do you think Mccain is doing so horrible? It's the "Joe the Plumber" sales pitch about speading the wealth...thats all I have heard in the past month! Smart people know that's a bunch of right-wing hype...he should have focused on the economy and what HE WOULD DO...TOO LATE NOW!!!!
2connection, If you really did watch the Couric interview, give me an example of a question Katie Couric asked that was biased or a "hatchet job" as you put it. That interview was a disaster simply and only because clueless Sarah Palin made a fool of HERSELF.
The problem with this interview wasn't difficulty of questions because they were actually very simple and Biden answered perfectly well. The problem and "joke" here is the ridiculous implications those questions were loaded with.
Lets make this much more simple and easy and with ALOT less typing and detailed explaining.
Can you name me ONE Democrat that Couric has Interviewed recently where she asked them tough provactive character driven questions ,as she has with PALIN ?
I challenge you to name me one, im honestly not aware of Any ! The problem with Couric is she is Agenda Driven and she exhibits a HUGE and Rather obvious Bias
Ok, now your Assignment is to name 1 Democrat politician that she challenged ?
2connection, so in other words, you can't answer my question, and you clearly have no idea what you're talking about. You claimed that Katie Couric did a "hatchet job" on Palin and that she asked "tough provocative character driven questions", but you can't give me a single example of this. If you make a claim, it's YOUR job to back it up, not my "assignment" to talk about other people Couric has interviewed.
No, you proved my point that you can't give a single example of how Couric did a "hatchet job" on Palin, or how Couric asked her "tough provocative character driven questions" which is what you claimed. I didn't ask you about anyone else Couric has interviewed, and the only coward who avoided the subject and avoided backing up his own claim is you. So have fun claiming victory for yourself - it doesn't change the fact you FAILED.
So, after being called out for the appropriateness and credibility of the questions, she in the last bit when bringing it back to "spreading the wealth" makes it seem like she was the one who wrote those questions with that sudden reference and tie to "Oh, I don't know, Sweden." Lame. I would have really liked to see Biden tell her straight out, "you want to ask dumb questions, then go ahead, turn the prompter off, I'm ready to prove you wrong."
Man - It's like a breath of fresh air hearing Biden have command of the facts, instead of Palin obfuscating them. He's sharp - and good for him for calling out whoever wrote those absurd questions.
I am so sick of our television media. DAMN are they becoming more and more inane. I read my news.
The questions should only be tough if they are credible. Its important not to be a hypocrite so a question such as "Since you spilled US secrets to the Vietnamese, could you be trusted with the nuclear codes?" is not appropriate since there is no concrete proof that he did. However, asking him did he ever spill secrets or having him face his accusers is totally appropriate.
OK, how about the other two questions? - they are based on undisputed facts. Are they appropriate for a news show? I hope you agree they are not. Not all questions are decent or germane...some are just smears. This anchor was just repeating extreme talking points and that's just bad for our country.
Also, why haven't I heard anything about socialism until 1 week ago, coincidentally just as McCain started saying so? Nobody noticed until last week? You have to admit you're being played.
As for socialism: Republicans have been saying that for years. My response is. Did it feel like socialism when Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, FDR or JFK were in office?
And even if it did as Kelthink pointed out. How is Sweden being a socialist country a bad thing? The issue is insulting, divisive and of no relevance.
Republicans attach negative connotations to particular words and then substitute discussion of the idea's virtues with argument about whether something or another constitutes that word. See primary debates on "amnesty". So dumb.
I know the socialism charge is older than dirt (cold war), but in another classic republican tactic, they rail against a "problem" they don't intend to "fix". If graduated income tax is socialism, then is McCain proposing a flat tax? No? So shut up Republicans.
As for the being played comment. No not really. Not me anyway. I knew most of this was going to happen a long time ago so I got the hell out the country and now I'm enjoying watching all the republicans who voted for Bush squirm as they have to give up their homes and stocks to guys like me who now have more than enough money to afford them.
Its interesting to see the comments here regardless of which party you belong to. One thing Ive noticed is which party of people willing to admit to being culpable for bad ills based on bad law ? Iam a conservative true and true. The Dems are nothing but socialists bordering on marxism. However I understand where there arguments come from in regards to there platform. I just see there remedies as never ever solving anything.
Also for the Liberals attempting to protect there candidate. You may want to profess the truth in regards to this journalist. Her husband has been hired by both parties. Once again who is the ill informed ? Myself or those that resort to nothing better than name calling ?
I just love the so called educated liberals elitists here. Educated ? Hmmm name calling is educated ? Because someone asks some questions that I know were tough they are some how politically motivated and botoxed. Wow! Liberals thats what they are and look at them perform there most basic of tricks. If you challenge a liberal to show success in regards to there ideology watch out they will attack you. Not with fact but with venomous insults.
HA, HA, she hammered him. Why don't you commentors please, please trash talk her more and take up for the poor, poor senator. I don't get you people who want to throw-down to defend Senator Biden. He's a big boy. He really did answer he questions well. Especially for someone so two-faced to run Obama down as he ran against him and now he's all for him. He's so fake. They're both agree on pacifism though. Senator Biden has always voted against war. Obama is a socialist, robin hood wanna be.
that was just weird. Biden held it together well under such a strange interview, I'm glad he called her out on the "who's writing your questions" Every time he answered, she couldn't follow up. She was like a robot or something, I guess brains aren't a requirement for that stations anchors, just an on/off switch.
Are these two clowns gonna actually do something this term?

Considering who Biden's opponent was, it is not really a good idea to argue about vice-presidential intelligence.
And secondly, do you really expect him to answer questions about if he's a socialist? That's like asking McCain if he's an anarchist! It's absurd.

Obama repeatedly voted to increase taxes for the middle-class, those making $44,000. Truth is, the way to increase tax revenues is to have a healthy economy. When people work they pay taxes. Unfortunately, the Obama ticket wants to pay for big ideas in part by increasing business taxes, but businesses like mine cant continue to compete globally if we have to increase our prices to pay more taxes. Want to restore the American Dream? Consider the McCain platform.

Joe Biden couldn't take the time to help a white child being racially targeted for harassment in a school district less than twenty minutes from his house. The school district got away with telling the white victim not to go to classes and that he could only use the nurse's restroom. This is what is helping to turn america into a nation of two classes in education public - full of crimes and violence and private -full of kids whose parents actually care about the success of their kids.

Biden's so used to kid-gloves treatment by the "mainstream" media (all of them adoring worshippers of the heal-all-ills god-king from Chicago, and big donors to His campaign), he's flustered by the rare reporter actually asking tough, serious questions.
Yay for her! Earlier, she squeezed McCain thru the wringer, too, but oh, no, that wasn't news--it's "news" if a reporter doesn't follow the party line and makes a Democrat squirm fielding some hardballs for a change.

The problem with this interview wasn't difficulty of questions because they were actually very simple and Biden answered perfectly well. The problem and "joke" here is the ridiculous implications those questions were loaded with.

So, after being called out for the appropriateness and credibility of the questions, she in the last bit when bringing it back to "spreading the wealth" makes it seem like she was the one who wrote those questions with that sudden reference and tie to "Oh, I don't know, Sweden."

There is a difference between "tough" and smear. Would it be just "tough" to ask John McCain five successive questions like:
"Since you cheated on your wife with a woman over 20 years your junior, why should the american people trust you?"
"Since you spilled US secrets to the Vietnamese, could you be trusted with the nuclear codes?"
"Do you have the intelligence to govern seeing as you were second to last in your college class?"
Would those be "tough" but legit questions? Anybody?
skichese 3 years ago
The questions should only be tough if they are credible. Its important not to be a hypocrite so a question such as "Since you spilled US secrets to the Vietnamese, could you be trusted with the nuclear codes?" is not appropriate since there is no concrete proof that he did. However, asking him did he ever spill secrets or having him face his accusers is totally appropriate.
bronxboyXXX 3 years ago
OK, how about the other two questions? - they are based on undisputed facts. Are they appropriate for a news show? I hope you agree they are not. Not all questions are decent or germane...some are just smears. This anchor was just repeating extreme talking points and that's just bad for our country.
Also, why haven't I heard anything about socialism until 1 week ago, coincidentally just as McCain started saying so? Nobody noticed until last week? You have to admit you're being played.
skichese 3 years ago
As for socialism: Republicans have been saying that for years. My response is. Did it feel like socialism when Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, FDR or JFK were in office?
And even if it did as Kelthink pointed out. How is Sweden being a socialist country a bad thing? The issue is insulting, divisive and of no relevance.
bronxboyXXX 3 years ago
Republicans attach negative connotations to particular words and then substitute discussion of the idea's virtues with argument about whether something or another constitutes that word. See primary debates on "amnesty". So dumb.
I know the socialism charge is older than dirt (cold war), but in another classic republican tactic, they rail against a "problem" they don't intend to "fix". If graduated income tax is socialism, then is McCain proposing a flat tax? No? So shut up Republicans.
