Can't take the heat! After being asked a couple of straight forward questions, Biden asks if it was a joke and demanded to know who wrote the questions. The Obama campaign went on to boycott the TV station until the election and cancelled and interview with Biden's wife.

Again, probably another pass for the Obama campaign here.

If elected President and Vice President, is this how they will respond to the media in order to avoid being asked tough questions?

Here is a link showing the interview-

Bull**** questions right out of the McCain playbook.

Palin has been hit with bull **** questions right out of the Obama playbook since she has been on the ticket.

Difference is though, they took it and didn't resort to boycotting TV stations.

She was asked easy questions.

And many she didn't even answer.

ohhhhhhhhh

so the only questions should be complementary to the Obama campaign? Don't have to answer the hard questions?

In the end I still liked his answers.

this is a continuation of behavior that I worry about

just like the "slime Joe the plumber" campaign because he didn't fawn all over Obama

I didn't have a problem with Joe and Obama.

I have a problem that Joe lied about starting his own business and he was working as a plumber and didn't have a license.
And he owed back taxes.

So, explain the boycotting of the TV station and the cancellation of interviews to me then.

I don't know anything about that. All I know about is that stupid boycott attempt on Oprah.

So, if Jim, another Plumber was really in the position to start his own business, had a master plumber's licence, was current on his taxes, asked the same question, and Barry gave the same answer, you would look at it totally different?

I posted the link for you, it is not an Obama bashing website either.

Where? I haven't been awake long.

Good morning to you

Duh, I watched that link. Was thinking about another thread.

I watched it when I first woke up and was having my caffeine fix. I didn't see anything about a boycott. Hmmm....may watch it again later.

Good morning to you too.

I watched the interview yesterday. It's funny she had no impromptu follow-up questions... She just read them from the playbook.

What BS questions has Palin been asked? Oh, "what newspapers and magazines do you read?" Yeah, that was a stumper.

Yes, I would look at Joe the Plumber differently.

I watched it again. There was no reference to a boycott.

I liked what Biden said, btw.

well I'm not gonna ask Obama any questions. I have wayyy to many skeletons for the media to come after me
