Has Wallace ever asked OBAMA if he’s a flake??? He’s the idiot they protect and is a professional gaffe machine ....
What a sexist PIG!
What if Wallace asked Palin that?
Geez, do we need another thread about this?
exactly. its totally sexist. would anyone in the media ask a liberal male democrat candidate that type of question?
on meet the press, the line of questioning was totally demeaning and sexist, they dont even realize how biased they are. never would obama be treated that way, he is “protected”.
“Chris Wallace was merely asking Bachmann a question relating to how many of her critics view her. He himself wasn’t calling her a flake.”
Sorry, but I watched it yesterday.
If he prefaced his question by saying that others call you a flake or think you’re a flake and then asked “are you?”, that would have been different.
He didn’t do that. The term flake was something he apparently came up with on his own, or that’s how it came off.
I was really surprised when he said it & so was she.
Nope, sorry, gotta disagree with you.
I’ve been following politics for decades, and one never, ever, ever sees viable national-level, accomplished pols asked, “Are you a flake?” or “Are you stupid?” You also don’t see the majority of pollsters out repeatedly asking whether such a candidate is “qualified to be president?” or someone you would vote for “under any circumstances”.
Very much Palin and now a little bit Bachmann, as our first, national-level conservative woman pols, have to deal with that. And the only reason that those questions are out there at all is because the MSM and their Establishment pundits keep putting it out in an echo chamber.
It is offensive, sexist, and completely uncalled for. Wallace’s apology was borderline offensive as well, because he didn’t acknowledge that what he asked was right in line with the sexist groove with which the media apparently greet accomplished conservative women.
no bigger flakes than the ones in the white house and the vp’s mansion.
>>>Geez, do we need another thread about this?
Maybe two or three for good measure.... < /sarc>
You people are missing the point.
No further questions, your Honor.
Priss Wallace is a leftist flake.
You mean like that, Chris?
The media, including Wallace, is beyond sexist. Conservative women are treated worse than sexist. There is a witch hunt for dirt on them and idiots like Wallace help it along.
SPOT ON!!!
If such condescending questions are valid, they should be asked of ALL candidates . . . even the all-knowing COMMIECRATS. Wallace’s “question” is a clear repetition of LSM biased tripe. He is actually reinforcing the stigma and not asking a question.
Wallace is a registered Democrat. He usually tries to appear non-partisan, but he appears to like liberal/moderate Dems and Republicans much more than he likes anyone who is conservative.
