Joe Biden sat down for an interview with Florida television anchor Barbara West Thursday & got hit by a barrage of Sean Hannity’s talking points, prompting him to ask at one point, “Are you joking? Is this a joke? Is that a real question?”

Interviewer: “You may recognize this famous quote: “From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs.” That’s from Karl Marx. How is Senator Obama not being a Marxist if he intends to spread a wealth around?”

Biden: “Are you joking? Is this a joke?”

Interviewer: “No”

Biden: “Is that a real question?”

Interviewer: “That’s a real question”

Interviewer: “Are you forewarning Americans that nothing will be done, & America’s days as a world leading power are over?”

Biden: “Umm, no, I’m not at all. I don’t know who’s writing your questions.”

[…]

Interviewer: “What do you say to a people who are concerned that Barack Obama will want to turn America into a socialist country much like Sweden?”

Someone’s been listening to a little too much Rush Limbaugh. Sheesh. Compare this interview to a softballs she threw John McCain less than two weeks ago. Kudos to a Obama campaign for responding by canceling a Jill Biden interview with a same network.

Anonymous Liberal adds:

a woman was like a cartoonish caricature of a wingnut, & her questions were straight out of a Steven Colbert interview. I kept waiting for her to ask Biden when Obama stopped being a member of al Qaeda.
