For Joe Biden, that is: being asked tough questions by a news reporter. This interview with a local TV station is fun to watch, because it makes you realize how rare it is for a Democrat to face hostile questions from the press. Really, it's almost unheard of, and you can see Biden's outrage at the idea that a television reporter is willing to challenge Democrat orthodoxy. Biden handles himself fine,...

This is what happens to ANYONE who dares to ask critical questions in the Obama Thugocracy! I’ve often wondered why more “news” reporters don’t ask the tough questions about who and what Obama really is. Obama’s entire life has been spent in the company of Marxists with radical, anti-American views. What does he really believe? One reporter [...]

Finally, a reporter, Barbara West of Orlando’s ABC affiliate, WFTV, asks Joe Biden tough questions. Instead of responding with the grace Sarah Palin showed to Charlie Gibson and Katie Couric when they posed much tougher ones, he got testy, even misrepresenting his running mate’s statements as he has, in the past, misrepresented Obama’s stands. Quoting Karl Marx’s [...]

Drudge has the link in Orlando on Joe Biden getting huffy at being asked some tough questions--you know, like the ones our guys on the right field every day from the leftie MSM. But foot in mouth Joe can't handle anything other than a softball. He is such a bald-faced liar on ACORN. And these guys want to run the country ? One comment: Think about that manner of handling questions transferring to the...

WFTV’s Barbara West asks Biden a series of hard-core right-wing questions: Ha ha. Wow. You don't usually get questions like that. Biden can't believe it.
