Kerry Angrily Spars With Fox’s Chris Wallace: ‘You Like To Ask Questions, But You Don’t Like To Get Answers!’ 07/20/2014

After months of shutting Fox News out of his Sunday show appearances, a downed airliner in Ukraine and an ongoing Israeli invasion of Gaza compelled Secretary of State John Kerry to finally appear on “Fox News Sunday”

A frustrated Kerry relentlessly castigated Fox’s Chris Wallace for continuing to ask questions while the Secretary of State was in the middle of answering. “You like to ask questions, but you don’t like to get answers!” he charged petulantly, before refusing to address any more questions from Wallace until he had finished his original response.

The outburst came on the heels of a testy exchange over President Obama’s so-far tepid reaction the the shootdown of a Malaysian passenger jet over eastern Ukraine by Russia or Russian-backed separatists fighting in the region.

Visibly annoyed over Wallace’s continued pressing, Kerry could no longer hold in his disdain for Fox News after Wallace asked about tougher sanctions on Iran’s nuclear program.

“I know you and others don’t ever want to give the Obama administration credit for almost anything,” he charged bitterly, “but the fact is this is the first administration to get a [nuclear] rollback in ten years.”

Kerry went on for some time, finally prompting Wallace to attempt a follow-up question on whether Iran continues work on its nuclar centrifuges. That didn’t sit well with the secretary.

“No no no, Chris, you like to ask questions, but you don’t like to get answers!” Kerry exclaimed. “Let me answer! Let me answer! Let me finish my answer!”

“Chris, I don’t care how many questions you ask, I’m gonna finish my answer,” America’s top diplomat continued, prompting a wan smile from Wallace.

That guy Kerry is an embarrassment to the nation. It’s hard to believe that anyone with an once of love for this country would hire him to clean swimming pools, much less the important positions he keeps getting.

I’m pleased SOMEONE put Mike Wallace’s son in his place. Truly wish it had been ANYONE else but this Secretary of State (of Palestine).

Nice diplomatic discussion from the nation's Head Diplomat that explains a lot about how we have arrived at the spot we have put ourselves in.

You can tell a lot about a person and their judgment by the kinds of people they hire for responsible positions.

Obama’s signature style is putting incredibly inappropriate, unqualified, incompetent , arrogant and outright weird people who exhibit bizarre behavior into very important, highly visible, positions of high responsibility.

The one common trait in all is an extreme disdain for the United States and utter contempt and border line hatred for average middle class Americans.

Wallace may have been trying to get an honest answer instead of regime bullcrap.

Wallace should have countered, “Secretary Kerry, this is television, not ‘From Here to Eternity’.”

I tried to think of a creative way to say this, but was at a loss. So, I'll just say...that is incredibly stupid.

At least John F Kerry didn’t go all “Genghis Khan” on Chris Wallace, that would have been really bad.

Does the term 13 kinds of stupid ring a bell with you? Fox News is the only place these arrogant windbags get asked the tough questions.

Is everyone in this administration a long-winded bloviator in love with the sound of their own voices?

Chris doesn't go for the throat quite like his dad once did. Mike was better known as Mike Malice...

you like to ask questions, but you don’t like to get answers!

I wasn't aware that he'd answered any questions. He just spoke a bit after a question was asked.
