Tough Questions

My name is Joe Biden, and I don't like tough questions.

and of course this:

"There's nothing wrong with tough questions, but reporters have the very important job of sharing the truth with the public -- not misleading the American people with false information. Senator Biden handled the interview well; however, the anchor was completely unprofessional. Senator Biden's wife is not running for elected office, and there are many other stations in the Orlando television market that would gladly conduct a respectful and factual interview with her."

"This cancellation is non-negotiable, and further opportunities for your station to interview with this campaign are unlikely, at best for the duration of the remaining days until the election."

"How can he be a benefactor for ACORN?"

Biden spoke the truth. Obama is a *beneficiary* of ACORN, at least today.

The rest of his blabber is a pure lie, however. "The tax breaks they used to have."

I would like Biden and Obama to explain how my taxes will actually go *up* once the Bush tax cuts expire. Doesn't that, you know, mean that I got a tax cut? Or maybe that means I'm one of those evil "rich" who isn't "spreading the wealth"?

I salute the reporter, bless 'er heart.

Biden said, "Just this year people earning $1.4M average, the top 1% of taxpayers (good, honest, decent Americans) are set to receive a NEW $87 billion tax break. A new one, on top of last year." Then he says this is an example of "redistributing the wealth ... UP!"

Is he kidding?

Has he been in congress so long that he actually believes wealth initially COMES from the government?

Oh, the humanity!

"Who writes your questions?" "Is that a joke?" I cannot imagine Governor Palin would be extended the same latitude in berating her questioner.

The headline the next day:

"Palin rude, refuses to answer tough but fair questions"
