Oct 28, 2008 - I can't believe I actually watched this station and thought they were trying to be fair to everybody. I'm done with them...

Hopster1 Says:

Oct 28, 2008 - I thought that Biden was very polite when it was rather obvious that the questions she was asking were rather crazy. I especially loved his rather poignant reply to the last question about Obama turning the USA into a Socialist country. The ONLY people who say that are the EXTREME Right Wing of the Republican party. Frankly, the mere question embarrasses the Republican Party, and the reporter who was dumb enough to ask it.

Hopster1 Says:

Oct 29, 2008 - Voter Fraud is a HOAX! For the voter fraud that ACORN is being accused of to occur someone would have to go and try and vote as Tony Romo, or Mickey Mouse. They would have to show ID that proves they ARE Tony Romo or Mickey Mouse for the actual FRAUD to be perpetrated!!! And, the people at the voting booth would need to be stupid enough to believe them. This is TOTAL BS. Wake Up America and USE YOUR BRAINS!!!!!

thisnameused Says:

Oct 29, 2008 - Better check your facts Hopster1. Courts have granted injunctions in at least 2 states to suspend the HAVA law for the next election. Voter fraud has been going on for decades, however it has not been so blatent until now. ACORN has registered real people multiple times - it's all over the press. They even showed it the forms on TV. It's high time some one busted these Marxist for what they are!!!

pirahedberg Says:

Oct 29, 2008 - West asks Biden about the supposed attempts from Obamas side to turn America in to "a socialist country like Sweden". Well, would that be so bad? I live in Sweden, and we have free education and health care to mention some things. And by the way, we also have democracy here in Sweden, despite being a "socialist country". If I remember correctly, your presidents the past 20 years have been named either Bush or Clinton. Millions of people can't afford medical care. What system is worse?

AsVickieSeesIt Says:

Oct 29, 2008 - West, you don't deserve to be a reporter. Go campaign for McCain on your own time. Nasty republican bitch!

Hopster1 Says:

Oct 29, 2008 - It's hilarious that Republicans are calling out voter fraud after 2000.

stefanstormlarsen Says:

Oct 30, 2008 - A socialist country much like Sweden!? Is there really no end to American ignorance? And let's say Sweden really was a socialist country, wouldn't that make socialism the best system in the world? Sweden is a highly successful, truly democratic country with a great number of esteemed multinational companies such as Volvo, HM, Ikea, just to mention a couple... Hey Barbie, put your act together!

RockawayRiotSquad Says:

Oct 30, 2008 - This was NOT the same as the Couric interview with Palin...this woman just made outrageous claims of Marxism...actually using a Karl Marx quote, hahahaha...was Bill Clinton a Marxist? What this dumb reporter fails to realize is that many Republicans, especially Reagan, have incorporated some "redistribution of wealth" programs in their administrations...What Couric did was EXPOSE Palin's ignorance and intellectually BANKRUPTCY on major issues...I'm glad Biden made her look like a fool.

licha1285 Says:

Oct 30, 2008 - Stupid Bitch.

GoBogi Says:

Oct 30, 2008 - RockawayRiotSquad, you obviously have no damn clue what Bill Clinton actually did to ask such a stupid question. The woman asked questions the same way the average person would have asked. Let's face it, those things are facts. He gave money, ACORN is partisan for Obama and he worked for and with them, and Income Redistribution is a Marxist staple. Do some research. She did well, by interviewing him like a normal person and not a stuck up reporter :)

RockawayRiotSquad Says:

Oct 30, 2008 - this is NOT a normal interview..you don't disrespect a VP candidate like she did...Obama was a lawyer for ACORN YEARS AGO...he has no association with them anymore...how can he control a few kids who filled out fake applications with fake names? HOW THE FUCK CAN HE CONTROL THAT? McCain gave several speeches for ACORN...just like he gave 450,000 dollars in government money to Rashid Khalidi...Obama wants to repeal the Bush tax cuts back to what they were under Clinton...thats not Marxism.

GoBogi Says:

Oct 30, 2008 - Obama has been a benefactor for ACORN by funneling money their way to fund them. They were supposed to be Non-Partisan and it took all of this for them to finally fess-up than they were Pro-Obama all the way? That money going to Khalidi was for Palestinians to be able to engage in Democratic things like VOTING. There is a big difference. That is not a person-to-person relationship like Obama's very questionable ones... Get real please, more fact less spin.

GoBogi Says:

Oct 30, 2008 - Also, Joe Biden has been one of the more disrespecting politicians these days. Saying stuff like "You can't go into a 7-11 without having a slight Indian accent" among other things. Stop acting like he is Mother Theresa. She asked tough questions in a confrontational way, and there is nothing wrong with it. Watch the McCain Interview. The funniest thing about the interview is that he lied multiple times in it...

philchemi Says:

Oct 31, 2008 - pirahedberg Listen and listen good this is not Sweden we get health care when we need it We don't have to wait 3 months to get an MRI and by the way there is nothing free, you are paying for the dead beats that don't want to work.When you give people something without letting them work for it,they take avantage of it and do nothing,its human nature.

paulpx2 Says:

Nov 3, 2008 - we already pay for the "dead beats" when they wait 3 weeks until they're almost dead, then go to the emergency room and jack up the price for everyone because public hospitals cannot deny service, instead of being able to go to the doctor and get some antibiotics or whatever. universal health care SAVES money for the country.

MikaelH89 Says:

Nov 4, 2008 - Word.

tokyotubular Says:

Nov 8, 2008 - HHAHAHAHA What do all of you morons have to say now. The country has spoken and Barack Obama will be the new President!

eiredance92 Says:

Nov 30, 2008 - haha! Biden is such an idiot! he knows nothing! Same thing for Obama.

MA5556555 Says:

Dec 26, 2008 - and his rates of approval are 82% a record! (and remember were in a period of economical crisis)

MA5556555 Says:

Dec 26, 2008 - since the 90's three countries have occupied the first rank of the UN's human developement index (PPP per capita vs life expectancy vs literacy) canada (1995-2000) then norway (2001-2007) and now iceland in 2008 (socialist countries). Sweden, wich is mentioned in the interview as one the big bad socialist states in the interview is ranked 7 this year (the us are ranked 15, behind austria) So what's wrong with socialism then? that its WORKS? (plz draw the line between communism and socialism)

Greenandscaly Says:

Jan 12, 2009 - Barbara West temporarily forgot her objectivity as a newsperson and displayed her GOP leanings she shares with her husband. Listen to her biased phrases: "Aren't you embarrassed?" . . . "Crushing political blunder" . . . "How is Sen. Obama not being a Marxist if he intends to spread the wealth around?" . . . "Are you forewarning that nothing will be done and America's days as the world's leading power are over?" Shameful.

CADDOXF Says:

Mar 11, 2009 - barbara west's husband is a gop hack. He's probably writing her questions. shameful!

wpw232 Says:

Oct 12, 2009 - HaHa you must feel stupid now. Not only is he dainty we now know he's impotent.
