Finally some tough questions

[Toph]

First media member with the guts to ask some tough questions of team Obama. Of course, you will notice that her station has now been blacklisted...

You just never ask the Messiah anything tough. They should have learned that by now. Tough questions are for "that other party".

This is why I hate politics.

Yeh, Bush was really held to the fire in the run-up to Iraq, wasn't he?

This interview was rightfully condemned by all quarters of the fourth estate as a joke.
Repealing the tax cuts will turn us into Switzerland? WTF?

Black listing that station is a big mistake.

As a member of the media let me say this. That reporter SUCKED - that was a horrible interview even though the questions were on point and quite good. But the up side is that Biden did a great job answering the questions. His answers were concise, to the point and expressed his and Obama's position. This could have been a great chance for the Obama camp to celebrate and play up the fact that they are not afraid to face the hard questions instead they black list the station which only feeds the right wing by proving what they say, that the Obama camp has never had their feet put to the fire. They really screwed up, but because it is Obama and Biden this will be swept under the media rug like all their other gaffs.

FYI for an Obama adminstration, the one of change. The first change will be to the news media that has supported him all the way, if they don't like the tone of your questions, you are dead to them. I watched that interview, she has interviewed Obama and McCain. Was she really that bad? Most of her questions, were playing back to the cadidates words. I did not see them as the "gotcha" questions.

Her delivery was bad - the questions were well put together but she sounded like a robot on downers.

Growing up wasn't chicken night a big deal in your family? It sure was in mine!!

Who didnt look forward to Mom's chicken and the chance that you might end up with the wishbone??

Did any of you realize that since Bill Clinton's first term you have probably not seen many wishbones in your chicken.

It's because the big chicken manufacturers ( Tyson, Sanderson Farms,etc) are slicing the birds differently. Straight down the back thru the wishbone. In effect it costs you chicken meat(alot), and should not be done.

The Clinton Administration started this practice, passed legislation that allowed it, and George Bush & his crew turned a blind eye to this.


Not Barack. If elected he said he would clean up this mess. An Obama win means you will see the wishbone again.

Barack Obama has pledged to clean up the 'chicken cutting mess'.

Check out his staffers(two of em) talking about this on msnbc this morning. www.msnbcbaracktacklestyson.com

Another solid reason to vote Obama.

He is going to fix EVERYTHING!!!!!


Why did I vote early for McCain??????

Yep, just like Katie Couric, Charles Gibson, etc. None of them are very interesting to listen to. Some are pretty nice to watch. You can always mute Katie Couric. She does have nice legs.

I thought you were talking Oklahoma football there for a moment.

Oh yeah?
What was the tenor of her McCain one-on-one?
Don't answer that, I can assure you it was nothing like this.

I am not for candidates dodging interviews of any kind, but Biden is right on the money in calling these views "fringe."
The only people who think these were fair questions consist on a daily media diet of Hannity, Beck, and Limbaugh.
Bush has nationalized the banks, but nooo, it will actually be Obama repealing tax cuts that didn't even exist prior to 2000 that will morph us all into overnight commies.

[LordofDaRing]

Yep and Obama just kicked two other guys from the Washington Post off his plane the other day. Coincidently the paper they worked for just endorsed McCain. The candidate of change...bwhahahahahahahahahhahahahah

Come on, don't even begin to make believe the press has been fair with this coverage. Has anyone gone after Obama on these Fannie Mae Freddie Mac issues? I saw Cambell Brown going after a teenage volunteer for the McCain campaign one night. When Newt Gingrich fired back on an MSNBC reporter about what exactly were/are Obama's qualifications, he replied, "Well we have to wrap this up Mr Speaker". This is the first of a wave of reporters and news stations that will be banned in an Obama administration.

If you buy whole chickens, the wishbone is intact. If you buy the chicken cut up, you get wishbone, but it's cut in half. I've been cutting and cooking chickens for more than 30 years and I haven't seen this change.

Somehow I never expected to be discussing poultry here.

Let the fowl jokes begin.

Actually, that's the Washington TIMES, not the Washington Post. BIG difference. The Washington Post is the paper that broke Watergate, and they endorsed Obama. The Washington Times is the paper owned by cult leader Rev. Sun Myung Moon, and they endorsed McCain.

Yogi was making this all up just like he does on most of his posts. Never ever click on a link that is posted by Yogi.

I don't agree with it...but this has been standard operating procedure for years.
How many members of the press corp are on record saying they've had access cut off for asking tough questions of President Bush?
McCain, who once refered to the media as "his base" and would hold court on the Straight Talk Express entertaining questions on ANYTHING, has also recently thrown prominent writers off the plane (Joe Klein, Maureen Down etc).

This is the first of a wave of reporters and news stations that will be banned in an Obama administration.

Yeh, and the "Fairness Doctrine" will eliminate all talk radio, too.

Maureen Dowd from the NY Times? Are you kidding? Why would McCain even let her on the plane in the first place. I would equate that with Sean Hannity being invited on Obama's plane.
