Yes, but even so, Barack Hussein Obama managed to screw it up - he voted AGAINST Roberts and tried to pawn it off as being bi-partisan. What a little twit.

Wallace is no "journalist" in the professional or fair sense. He is a snide, registered Democrat schmuck who supports Obama.

Does anyone recount Wallace DEFENDING Obama from legitimate questions reference Obama's "Typical White Woman" comment on Fox and Friends? Chrissy had a hissy fit on the morning of March 21, 2008 for his pal, Obama.

When will a real American like Laura Ingraham have a chance to interview Obama?

Yes it was interesting, my first thoughts were that Fox was sending a message to the Clintons (interview When Bill blew up), and Obama took advantage to send a message to ABC and the mainstream media.

Mutually benificial to both.

***It’s a wonder he waited so long... Interesting interview.***

Chrissy Wallace embarrasses even the usual crappy interviewers...FOX is weak and it looks like the New Media will have to pull out the real story from the Black Commie!

Good Interview. Thanks for posting the transcript. I can’t imagine how Chris Wallace came across as Obambi-supporter as some people are saying.

I guess new standard barer of fairness are “Hannity and Colmes”. Make extreme uncivil disrespectful partsisan attacks in as vicious and insulting manners as possible. Then you did your job. I disagree with that.

Wallace touched on most all the subjects and was pretty argumentative about analyzing PA results. He didn’t want to sound like George Steptyhjuklous, like a Klinton partisan hack, trying to portray Obama as unpatriotic Muslim bigot. Whatever credibility Fox News has, would have been eradicated completely. Obama would have instantly become a MARTYR. All the KLINTON’S dirty tricks, that they have deployed, kitchen sink and race card, would end up being pinned on Fox and Conservatives.Obviously Chris Wallace is too intelligent to allowsomething like that to happen.

This was a Larry King interviw. He asked ok questions but no followup and let him spin to no end. I think wallace is a great interviewer when he wants to be. He must be struck like Crissy mathews about obama.

You are absolutely right Prole. Fox News should DUMP this freak Wallace!

We should write to him too and give him a piece of our mind.

Anyone know his direct email address?

“You are absolutely right Prole. Fox News should DUMP this freak Wallace!”

And dump Jeraldo along with the twits that deliver sickenenly inane news comments on Fox and Freinds.

Most of all, they should get rid of the video game sound effects that accompany every video graphic that pops up on screen.

And what is with the nerve grating bump music FOX provides for its shows?

Maybe I’m getting old, but if I wasn’t so danged conservative, I’d be watching CNN. Their production is much easier to watch.

What did you want him to do? Be an asshole and be disrespectful like liberal journalists are to Bush? You want to give dems more ammunition against Fox? What part of FAIR AND BALANCED don’t you understand? He did a fine job.

My hubby watched the interview and said that if he was on the fence or a undecided DEMONcRAT voter that interview would have convinced him to vote for the MUSLIM. ABC has more walnuts than FOX!
