surprised? Barack Obama's campaign killed all interviews with a Florida TV station after Sen. Joe Biden, the Democratic vice presidential nominee, faced tough and critical questions from a reporter at the Orlando station, the Orlando Sentinel reported .

During a satellite video Thursday, WFTV's Barbara West quoted Karl Marx and asked Biden how Obama's comment to "Joe the Plumber," about spreading the wealth wasn't being Marxist.

"Are you joking?," Biden asked.

West replied, "No."

Later in the interview West questioned Biden about his comments that if Obama wins the election next month, he would be tested early on as president and wanted to know if Biden was implying America was no longer the world's leading power.

"I don't know who's writing your questions," Biden asked her.

The Obama camp then killed a WFTV interview with Biden's wife Jill, according to an Orlando Sentinel blog.

"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," wrote Laura K. McGinnis, Central Florida communications director for the Obama campaign, according to the Sentinel.

Information Police..........
These are questions on actual POLICIES that BO is proposing for our country....not newspapers full of leftist journalism.
Joan Crawford's Crazy Eyes........
Well, I must say that was such a well-thought out response to my question. I'm almost spellbound by the eloquence of the thought-provoking insight you have graced us all with. Thank you Joan. Thank you.
 
These questions have been asked of the Obama campaign, and they've answered them. I live in Orlando, where WFTV is stationed, I know who Barbara West (the anchor) is. I've been watching her since I was a child, she's been around for a long time. She never seemed to show any bias when it came to politics, but she's clearly a Republican and McCain supporter. That whole interview was her being a right-wing pundit repeating right-wing talking points rather than a fair and balanced anchor giving an interview. She might as well should have been on FOX News. Log on to www.wftv.com, and watch the interview she had with John McCain, and watch the softball questions she lobbed at him.
 
Those are not tough questions those are stupid questions with a false premise.

There is no point in trying to explain to stupid people how stupid they are.
 
Yeah but, the American people have been (as usual) way ahead of journalist. We've been asking those questions and will take those to the polls.
 
This from the people who think it is off base to ask a VP candidate what newspapers she reads...
 
Must have taken a page from the Palin play book. Funny how you are upset over this but ok with Palin's nonsense.
 
That's like a reporter asking McCain how he differs from Fascists.

It's idiotic reporting and certainly not worth a response.
 
No Obama is not running. This is just stupid propaganda from thr republicans trying to use scare tactic by saying what Obama is doing is called socialism.

ooh! socialism how evil.

Please bailing out wall street, that is socialism. Obama's plans for the economy is not socialism.
 
Was that really a "tough" question, or ridiculously biased? I would agree that it is the later.

Asking someone if Obama's policies are "Marxist" is as ridiculous as it is ignorant. Give us a break...

"tough questions".... yeah right.....

Why won't anyone ask Palin about wanting Alaska to secede from the US? Now that is a tough question that she would most likely avoid.
 
The Obama camp has never had to answer the tough questions so they do not know how to. If they had to they would lose by a landslide! They are used to, "So, what is your favorite ice cream?"
