Burgold Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Yep the American electorate is not a shining example of discernable intelligence I'll give you that. There ya go again Joe with that Republican elitism. This interview is just another example of the extreme liberal media bias that always persists and shows how every journalist is fawning and contriving to get Obama elected.

MEANDWARF Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Good for them. (The campaign.) He ownd the hell out of her. Destroyed that woman. Awesome. Even an anchorwoman on Fox News called it irresponsible journalism. You know it's bad if it's below Fox News standard. Biden handled himself nicely. She must have been getting her questions from Rush. Glad your enjoying this. This is the future if Obama gets into the White House.

Zguy28 Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 How do those tough questions work out for Sarah Palin?That might be the lamest response I've ever seen from you.You can do better bro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMK9973 Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Wow. So let me get this straight "What newspapers do you read" = Gotcha questions "Isn't Obama a marxist?" = Tough relevant question "Can you tell me your thoughts on the Bush Doctrine" = Gotcha questions "How do you explain that Obama has been hugely involved in ACORN and Voter fraud?" = Relevant question. "The main stream media is playing gotcha questions with Palin because they love Obama" = Insightful fact "She game McCain a softball interview and followed it up by asking low ball republican talking points and lies on Biden" = Sexist remark.... Is that correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoot Point Really Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I think Bachmann and this woman will be justified in their line of reporting/questioning when it is all said and done. Obama has held radical views in the past (and admits it as much in his books) and some of those views have slipped out in interviews in the past. Finally, someone just flat out asks the question and they get bent out of shape. If you have nothing to hide, there is no reason to act like this.

AsburySkinsFan Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Obviously, you haven't a CLUE as to what YOUR candidate thinks. And there are millions more out there who are just as ignorant as you. http://www.startribune.com/opinion/editorials/18430429.html Uhhhh...ok...personal attacks aside...if you really think that Obama is a socialist then you have to admit that McCain is too and so is Bush and every other person who voted for the bail-out package. Listen, we've been "spreading the wealth around" since the New Deal but don't let any of that actual knowledge change the way you're "thinking", you're doing a great job with your Paul Revere's "The Commies are coming" routine. BTW, the opinion piece you sent me is about Al Franken...so uh...wha? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AsburySkinsFan Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Seems to be a trend going on here: Hillary, Palin, this news lady, and its always the same people too.Destroy any woman that may stand between Obama and the Presidency. tsssk tsssk, and to think we've come so far, yet... Oh, for crying out loud give me a collosal break! You think these women are being treated any differently than a male candidate? I guess the Obama campaign should coddle Palin and Hillary beause they are women...oh wait that's sexist...sorry but your bias is showing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thiebear Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 The Tax rebate to people that don't pay taxes = socialism. The tax cuts to the 40million when some don't pay income tax = socialism: to say they pay social security means were going to give back SS money??? WTF i wan't some of mine back also..

If that's your standard for socialism then sir the United States has been socialist for a long time now.

Koolblue13 Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I think if we want to be strict on socialism then this nation has been socialist to some degree for the last 100 years or longer. I think socialism has been incorporated into the fabric of this nation at this point, however, it isn't the boogeyman that it is made out to be and hopefully we can move past cold war rhetoric into rational discussion about what we need to do to continue to be on top. I don't remember McCain or Bush being part of the DSA's New Party? Do you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsburySkinsFan Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 So now asking stupid questions is the equivalent of asking "tough questions." Sure, in the world of make believe. Here's the problem we face today, many many many people have simply lost the ability to discern. They fail to discern strong answers from weak ones, and strong questions from weak ones, and once that discernment is gone the people are left only to follow their ideology, as such the "strong" answers are the ones that they agreed with previously, and the "strong" questions are the ones that attack positions that their ideology disagrees with. Lack of the ability to discern. Problem #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it is because anyone with half a brain can figure out that Obama isn't any more socialist than most of the politicians in DC, and probably more capitalistic than many. I mean really if you're going to try and tag Obama as a socialist then you have to do the same thing to every other DC politician that uses taxpayer money to help other people out.

Asking why Obama shouldn't be considered a Marxist is like asking McCain why he shouldn't be considered a racist. It's a flat out dumb question, meant to put the words 'Marxist' and 'Obama' in the same sentence. Probably because people hold that opinion regardless of the truth of it.
