Barbara West, on October 23, 2008, interviewed the Democratic vice-presidential candidate Joe Biden, asking him whether he was "embarrassed" about Barack Obama’s affiliation with ACORN, allegations of voter registration fraud by ACORN in elections past, comparing Obama’s response to a question from Ohio voter "Joe the Plumber" to a quote from Karl Marx, and suggesting that Obama was a Marxist who wants to turn the U.S. "into a socialist country much like Sweden." At one point during the interview, Senator Biden asked West if she was joking, and later suggested she was offering "talking points" against Barack Obama.

The Obama campaign responded by canceling a subsequent interview with the candidate’s wife, Jill Biden. The campaign’s official statement was, "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." Obama’s Florida spokeswoman, Adrianne Marsh, called Biden’s interviewer, Barbara West, "both combative and woefully uninformed about simple facts."

WFTV’s news director defended West, saying she had not been inappropriately tough, but some media commentators criticized her performance by comparing it to her interview with Republican candidate John McCain when she had asked him questions such as "Why haven’t you gone after [Obama] on these serious issues of voter registration fraud and the mortgage crisis?" and "Do you feel that the Democrats are trying to paint you into a box – in other words, make it impossible for you to criticize Sen. Obama?"

West was principal assistant to Peter Jennings while he was anchor for ABC’s World News Tonight in London. She helped cover such stories as the Royal Wedding of Charles and Diana and the Iranian Hostage Crisis.

West makes only two specific claims in the beginning of her WFTV.com biography. Those claims were that her work has taken her to President Bush’s inauguration and to President Clinton’s impeachment.

Barbara West has served as health reporter and anchor for WFTV’s news at noon and 5:30 for the past 16 years.

West attended the University of Vermont. While there, she won the 1969 Miss Vermont contest and was selected to represent her state in the national Miss America competition. She later obtained a Master’s Degree from the University of Vermont. Before starting her career in television news, she was an assistant professor at the University of Vermont.

Barbara West is married to Wade West, a political and media consultant for politicians, professionals and organizations.

On October 27 West did an equally tough interview with John McCain, who answered the questions, and didn’t issue a statement later that he wouldn’t go on West’s show again, like cry baby Obama did. Click here to see West interview McCain.

The interviews West did with both McCain and Biden were some of the best, and most direct, I’ve ever seen. West should win a bunch of awards for asking questions of both candidates that we’d all like to hear. It’s just too bad that Obama didn’t allow West to interview him directly, but instead sent his scape goat Joe Biden.

In 2001 Barack Hussein Obama gave a Chicago Public Radio Interview to WBEZ.FM. In the interview Obama talks about how the courts have not gone far enough to help blacks, so the only way to give blacks more money would be to do it through legislation, which is why he became a Senator, and worked with Acorn and other community organizing groups. When Obama told Joe the Plumber he wanted to take money from white people like him, and give it to blacks, he wasn’t expressing an idea that was new to him. Obama has always talked about spreading the wealth the way Karl Marx did, except this form of socialism will only help blacks.

If you’re white, and you think Obama is going to help you first you are sadly mistaken. Whites go to the back of the line, and blacks go to the front of the line. Once Obama has taken the wealth from whites and given it to the blacks, only then will Obama consider helping poor white folks, if there’s any money left, and if everyone isn’t poor by that time.

This interview is Obama in HIS OWN WORDS.

Sadly it appears that Obama could get elected, and after 4 years of Obama shifting wealth from whites to blacks, and increasing overall poverty in the United States, my hope is that Americans who vote for Obama on November 4, will finally realize what they have done, and beg for a chance to vote for someone who will make this country prosper again. No matter what happens on election day, and whether we agree or not, we are all in this sinking ship together.

If left to the VP running mate Joe Biden, and biggest critic of the war in Iraq Jack Murtha, Barack Obama might come across as someone who needs to change parties before it’s too late. No I don’t mean change parties to become an Independent, I mean go to a different Hollywood party where Joe and Jack can’t find him until after the election is over.

If Joe and Jack cause too many problems for Obama, or if Bill Clinton gets caught with his pants down only a day away from election day, Obama might consider changing his name to Don Draper, because Don Draper is the kind of cool guy that could be President.

Being Don Draper beats Pat Finger in Butts.

And being Don Draper is cooler than two rich guys that want us all to like and admire them, just because they’re richer and more successful.

A 20 year-old woman named Ashley Todd alleges she was robbed at knife point at an ATM. The woman claims that upon giving the man $60, he noticed her McCain bumper sticker, and proceeded to beat her, and scratched a B (for Barack Hussein Obama) into her right cheek. Ashley’s left eye also appears to be bruised, like a black eye.

The attack happened last night about 8:50 pm, and Ashley called the police around 9:30 pm, once the attacker was done with her. Ashley went to the hospital the next morning and got a full checkup, which included an MRI.

Ashley is not an employee of the John McCain campaign, but was in Washington DC in June for training with the College Republicans.

The alleged assailant is described as a dark-skinned black man, 6 feet 4 inches tall, 200 pounds with a medium build, short black hair and brown eyes. He was wearing dark colored jeans, a black undershirt and black shoes, and the criminal is an Obama supporter.

Despite the information we’ve gathered above, there are three things that make us skeptical. First, Ashley is a hardcore McCain supporter, as evidenced by her twitter updates listed below in the thumbnail snapshot, that show her posting twitter updates right up until the alleged attack, then the last post three hours after the attack. Second, she initially refused medical attention, but finally got it the next morning. Third, the "B" scratched on her face is backwards, making it look like it was done in a mirror.

We suspect Ashley might be lying, and we don’t support liars. The liberal media is probably digging deep into this girls life right now, so we’ll wait and see what surfaces about her. If she is found to be lying we think she should be locked up for filing a false police report, and attempting to incite racial violence by alleging a black man committed the crime.

Vote and tell us if you think Ashley is telling the truth or lying.

Joe Biden, the Democratic vice presidential nominee warned an audience at his second Seattle fundraiser on Sunday in Seattle Washington, that Barack Obama would cause an international crisis because agressive countries in the world would test Obama’s lack of executive experience. Biden said:

"Mark my words. It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We’re about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you don’t remember anything else I said. Watch, we’re gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy. And he’s gonna have to make some really tough decisions, I don’t know what the decision’s gonna be, but I promise you it will occur. As a student of history, and having served with seven presidents, I guarantee you it’s gonna happen."

Biden has said before about Obama, "The Presidency doesn’t lend itself to on-the-job-training." Biden keeps trying to tell us that Obama lacks the experience needed to be President. He’s Obama’s Vice Presidential nominee, and if Biden is credible, then maybe we should be listening to him. Biden was chosen by Obama because of Biden’s international relations experience, so we should believe Biden when he says Obama will cause an international crisis in the first six months of his Presidency.

Russia has suddenly become very agressive again. Maybe that’s because they believe Obama will be elected. Our economy can’t afford an international crisis in the first six months of the next Presidency. Biden’s own comments confirm he doesn’t believe a crisis of any sort would ocurr if John McCain was elected.

Biden is giving us a lot to consider.
