A few probing questions and the Obama camp cries “FOUL!” Do they want to retract that “spine of steel” comment? Listen to how Biden bobs and weaves himself into a hole. Watch the video if only for Biden’s facial expressions at the audacity of a reporter to ask solid questions.
A couple of money quotes from a partial transcript:
About ACORN, Say It Ain’t So Joe said:
There is no relationship. . . . Those are the facts!
Come on, Let’s get real here.
West asks:
Karl Marx wrote, “From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs.” How is Senator Obama not being a Marxist if he isn’t spreading the wealth around?
Biden retorts:
Are you joking? Is this a joke? Is that a real question?
(Snark. God love ya’ Barbara.)
West:
You recently said, “Mark my words, It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama . . .”
Biden:
I don’t know who’s writing your questions, but . . .
Translation: Wait until we get a hold of your editor and your personal files. We’ll Joe-the-Plumber you!
The look on Biden’s face is priceless.
There is an honest reporter left.

I would have loved her to respond to Biden’s inquiry about who wrote her questions by saying “You and Barrack Obama did when you opened your mouth and made all those statements. Now we have no alternative but to ask you about them. If you noted, you weren’t asked about it until you yourselves brought it up.”
