Not smart to make this an issue, just accept the apology and move on.

IF ONLY Ms. Bachmann had LOUDLY publicly apologized
to Gov. Palin. IF ONLY, she would ROCK today.

BUT NO.

Ms. Bachmann-Romney was Rollinized.

Hypocrite Bachmann gave NO public apology to Gov. Palin
so it seems karma has run over her RINO dogma.

Great set up by Bachmann!

Guess Wallace won’t be asking PALIN if she’s a ‘flake’ when she announces!

Why do ‘Journalists’ feel that it is okay to put down republican candidates, but consider it racist to say anything bad about a Democratic candidate?

This $hit has got to stop.

Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) said she wasn't accepting the apology of Fox anchor Chris Wallace...

I never heard her say that.

Chris proved himself to be a flake.

He thought long and hard about that word and decided it was worth the gotcha clip. He likely planned and apology figuring it was worth the high fives around the Country Club cooler.

Give me the quote where Wallace told her he was sorry.

"I think that it's insulting to insinuate that a candidate for president is less than serious," Bachmann said in an interview on ABC when asked about Wallace's apology, which he posted online.

It was brazen and very insulting for Wallace to call Bachmann a flake. It is standard procedure for the increasingly crude and shallow, low class, and juvenile media in this country to be crass and insulting and then offer a written apology. It is predictable, tedious, and repetitious of the media these days. Such behavior is consistent with a dumbed down country, IMO.

Why should she accept a shallow, meaningless, and predictable apology?

She doesn’t accept his apology, good for her for not playing nice like the GOP elite wants.

She apologizes for saying obama is unamerican; well, one awshit wipes out 10,000 attaboys and she managed to wipe out the one good for her with light speed.

Her advisors with the poll stats and their fealty oaths to the GOP elite stuffed up their arses need to be fired.

It’s a mistake to make it about being “insulted.” She ought to get right in their face about the way the media try to diminish and marginalize conservatives running for public office.

A big name MSM journalist coming from a big name MSM family and he apologizes? Wow, I’m impressed. Dan Rather is still mumbling in the corner about fake but accurate. Hell, Wallace probably did Bachmann a favor here.

Did Wallace ask Obama if he was a flake for his “57 states?”

Or Biden for his “Stand up, Chuck?”

Not that I can recall. What a pathetic idiotic question to ask a viable candidate.

Good for her!

Merely one of the "charges" being made against B.O. is that he is a Marxist. Will Wallace ever ask B.O. whether or not he is a [fill-in-the-blank]?

I dunno. Is it possible he meant no harm with that question? An easy response would have been, “No, and I appreciate that the Left labels all non-Statists with that moniker” or something.

Wallace ripped Stewart-Leibovitz a new one so badly old Jonny needed to get a colostomy bag after the interview. “Are you bringing back Amos and Andy?” Priceless.

"....she wasn't accepting the apology of....Chris Wallace, who asked her...if she was a "flake.""

I always thought Chris (unlike his father) was pretty-much non-partisan, until now.
This type of comment is beneath him - would he ask this of Romney, or even Gingrich for that matter?

If you watch Wallace’s apology, you will note that the only real reason that he apologized was because a bunch of Fox Viewers set his email on fire.

Even he admitted that.

It was not a sincere apology.

I don’t think the question was a bad thing, per se. Wallace showed himself to be an arrogant, elitist, jerk but Michele handled the question beautifully. She knocked it out of the park with her answer. Good for you Mrs. Bachmann!
