The Democratic way seems a bit more "in your face" then the Republican way was.
The Democrats do not seem to be making many friends with this approach. They come across as loons.
Congress has more than its share of members who lack background and the knowledge to intelligently discuss the political issues of the day, clearly hoping to ride the Obama tide...apparently the honeymoon is over.
I whole hardly agree, the interviewer reminds me of many of the economic whiz kids that inhabit C-D, clueless. Ignorance should only be tolerated so far, nice to see Democrats losing their cool in the face of stupidity.
Please, point out the stupid questions the congressman was being asked.
Surely you must mean the stupidity coming from the congressman himself - imagine, the more in debt you are, the wealthier you are.

That's why the congressman decided to poke fun at the interviewer's education. He knew he was cornered into a logical contradiction. The only way to combat it was to fall back on his inferiority complex and compare ***** sizes.
Well, that explains why they aren't concerned about paying for this new health care boondoggle.
Of course they aren't concerned.
Raise taxes.
Raise the debt ceiling.
If they had to govern within a budget..a strict "within your budget" then they would think twice and I'd bet plenty of government waste would be cleaned up as well.
ZERO accountability is required from the government.
When it's not your money, you don't care how it's spent.
When you don't have a budget, the sky is the limit.
This so-called "interviewer" (a reactionary conservative dimwit--in the tradition of other dimwits like John Stossel) sandbagged Stark. His attitude was condescending, mocking, and he was intent from the beginning nailing Stark--by asking really, really "stupid" questions, trying to reduce economics to a simplistic equation that his little head can actually handle, and never responded to Stark's actual answers. Over and over again, he talked over Stark, and when Stark gave an actual answer, he just glossed over it and kept repeating the same question over and over again. Instead, Stark nailed this idiot. If I had been Stark, I would have told him to get the f**k out, too.

No, he poked fun at the interviewer's education because the interviewer clearly didn't have even the most fundamental understanding of economics, and was obviously just trying to sandbag him through that old Republican trick of repeating the same stupid question/statement over and over again, regardless of the answers. The interviewer was a moron.
