Chris Wallace In the Tank For Obama?
Vanity

Posted on 03/21/2008 8:33:58 AM PDT by Retired Chemist

Chris Wallace really went after the Fox and Friends crew this morning for spending a too much time discussing Obama's just a typical white person remark. He needs to move over to MSNBC.

The only reason Wallace, BOR, and the rest of the pompous "fair and balanced" phonies do this stuff is because they've been trying to get Obama and Hillary to come on their shows and they view Hannity and Fox & Friends as major flies in their ointment.

They fool NO ONE.

The rich irony of this statement, of course, is that stereotyping is at the very heart of racism. The fact that it comes out in a conversation rather than a speech seems to indicate that it’s how he really thinks.

Barack Obama is interviewed by "Nightline's" Terry Moran.

Since I am not a Hussein swooner, or a Dim hack pretend journalist, I give him no quarter.

Do unto others....as they do unto you, because surely the DNC media and their newly black candidate, WILL continue to smear Republicans as racists, with impunity as they have for 40 years running.

Agreed...but Obama is trying to change the discussion to race (he has a distinct advantage there) from the true issue of his association with radical hate spewing leftist wacko Wright.

One way he just a poor downtrodden minority the other shows a total lack of judgment and that he's in tacit agreement with those views.

Deflect and obfuscate.

Here's an incident on light rail. I wasn't paying much attention, at the stop before my exit I was aware that someone had just boarded and sat down near me. The car was virtually empty. After we left that stop and headed for my exit I got up to stand at the door.

The black lady who had sat near me exclained, "You didn't have to move!"

Well, I was honestly somewhat shocked -- it was in the mid-1990s thirty years after the "civil rights" revolution and it was in California! -- I of course explained that my exit was the next stop.

Whites only have problems?

I would generalize, as censored censored Obama does, but the last time anything like that happened was in Cincinnati in the 1960s! But then I do not have a racialist agenda as censored censored Obama does, IMO.

A one way dialogue that emphisized white racism and skimmed over the whole reason why he had to give his speech. Where is Michelle, by the way?

It’s becoming apparent to me that he isn’t nearly as bright as the MSM would like us to believe. You know?

How right you are! It’s the first thing I thought of when it happened. Steve Doocy was so mad he talked “over” Chris Wallace to get his point made. Wallace would like nothing better than to have Obama for an interview. So would Bill O’Reilly and he hints at such every night on his program.

Wallace really outed himself. The acorn doesn't fall far from the tree.....no matter how the junior nut tries to camouflage it.

Didn't Wallace start it off, by claiming he watched the entire 2 hours of the show and was troubled by them not using the entire clip from the interview? Doocy immediately came back with stating that they had indeed played the entire clip several times, then Wallace says that maybe he hadn't heard every minute of the show. But he just couldn't bring himself to say, 'sorry' or 'I stand corrected'.

Wallace came off as a pompous jerk; I e-mailed F&F earlier today regarding Wallace's erronious accusations, and praised Steve's, Gretchen's and Brian's professionality in the handling of a co-worker that couldn't step back and apologize to them. I hope others will e-mail also. I'd like to hear Wallace apologize (something other than 'If I offended you...)on-air, to the hosts and the audience-won't hold my breath, though.

Yep! It's already been determined now that he and BOR are media whores, the only thing that has yet to be _fully_ determined is their price.

The hints we've gotten so far is that they come pretty cheap. LOL

Remember how angry BOR was when the SwiftBoat Vets for Truth were airing their ads on Fox about “his friend”, John F’n Kerry?

The ONLY reason he was so angry was because he had been trying hard to get him on his show and he wouldn't come on because of those ads. BOR showed then, where his allegiance lies. Now he's mad because FReepers don't speak all that well of him. HELLO???!!!!

Yes. Wallace lied at first, then had to admit that he was tuning in and tuning out and that “every time he tuned in they were “bashing Obama”. I have every word on videotape.

I’d send this whole thread to Fox and Friends, but I’m in the middle of something and have run out of time. I hope they’re monitoring FR and see it anyhow. bttt

I’ve never caught this show. Are Doocy and the others conservative?

White people aren’t allowed to be pissed about Obama’s comments. Didn’t you get the memo?

When you get time, check the link at John W's post #2. It also has audio from Brian and the Judge's radio show, and Wallace continued blathering.

Included: Wallace didn't think Obama's comments were offensive; Wallace asked if Doocy was mad, and Brian said Doocy's mad.

the quote was out of conext and when bracketed within total text of the statement was hardly offensive......

Pretty much accurate. But imagine if any white republican candidate for any office said "typical black person" in any context. The media would eat them for lunch and they would be bannished within hours.
