Bachmann won't take Fox host's apology (Faux News)

>>Resorting to logical fallacies, I see.<<

No, just pointing out a fact. Both extremely liberal sites are stating what you are. If it were me, it would give me pause.

>>Frankly mom, I am a bit disappointed that you don’t see how a Christian ought to act in this situation.<<

Turning the other cheek is not opening oneself for abuse. Which is exactly what playing into the MSM does.

Perhaps she is waiting to Wallace to apologize to her. He has not. He said I messed up, I’m sorry, after going on a long explanation about the reaction of the viewers and how the questions are not as important as the answers.

When he apologizes to her, we’ll all see what happens.

[netmilsmom]

Just another, roll over and take it situation.
I’m tired of having to be nice. It’s gotten us no where.

[dps.inspect]

So now she has to apologize for not apologizing? She has my support for not groveling for your sake alone...

[P-Marlowe]

Perhaps she is waiting to Wallace to apologize to her. He has not.

It's too late. Bachmann made her biggest flaky statement today.

When he apologizes to her, we’ll all see what happens.

He did say he was wrong, but events (today) seem to have proven him right.

[netmilsmom]

We all get it. You don’t like the woman. Meh, no skin off my nose. Keep eating our own and we won’t have a single candidate left.

Jesus Christ is not running. We can’t get Reagan either. Get used to it.

What candidate did Rollings say that about.

A while back Rollins said that about his new boss, Michele Bachmann and last week he said the same in an attack on Sarah Palin.

[org.whodat]

Palin is not a candidate, unless he said it a couple of years ago.

[RJL]

Palin is not a candidate, unless he said it a couple of years ago.

Exactly, tell that to Ed Rollins. That is one of the reasons the attack was so infuriating.

Michele Bachmann should have fired Ed Rollins immediately.

Excellent quarterbacking this fine Monday morning. It is so difficult to proclaim what woulda/shoulda/coulda been said.

I bow to your belated wisdom. Michele, off with her head!

[sam_paine]

Ah yes! The “sports analogy” gambit! Love it.

So, as John Madden generally reminded us: It’s not the penalties on the other team that win the game, it’s the team that scores more points on the field.

Bachman 0, Wallace 6 (and Bachman refusing the apology gives Wallace the 2 pt conversion.)

We all get it. You don’t like the woman.

I love Bachmann, but unfortunately she's just not big league material. She keeps making rookie mistakes and today she made two huge mistakes first by not accepting or acknowledging Wallace's apology (and yes it was an apology) and then by not doing her homework on John Wayne and acting like the flake she has been accused of being.

She will hopefully someday sit on the Supreme Court after being appointed by whoever is elected in 2012. Unfortunately for her, it is not going to be Michelle Bachmann. I hope it's not Romney. I suspect the next President's last name will begin with a P. (Pawlenty, Perry, Palin).

Jesus Christ is not running. We can’t get Reagan either. Get used to it.

I don't expect perfection. I do expect competency. Michelle Bachman is running a very incompetent campaign. At this point she has moved down the ladder on my choices behind the three "P" candidates and behind the "C" and the "S" candidates.

I frankly don't think she is going to make it to the first primary. I really can't see people (with money) contributing to her campaign.

[Aevery_Freeman]

Now I understand your philosophical bent. John Madden as mentor explains the propensity to MMQB.

[rmlew]

Walter Mondale’s boy Krauthammer is no conservative.

[netmilsmom]

>>I love Bachmann<<

I said “like”. There is a difference.

[rabidralph]

Screwing up an occassional interview is God’s way of keeping our nearly perfect conservative women humble. I don’t think she screwed up. I will support Rep. Bachmann if Gov. Palin does not enter the race.

[sam_paine]

Good job! Your mastery of basic snark is excellent. You’ve got great potential!
