Chris Wallace is the worst sort of white privlidge. His father was a liberal icon at CBS, so somehow someway he becomes the big honcho at Fox. Sort of the same process that permits Chis Cuomo, son of Mario and De Blasio’s not terribly bright son to be admitted to Yale. True democracy must have a meritocracy at its core. Very tired of having people like Wallace, Cuomo, the Kennedy clan and many others having this sort of privlidge.

Bonchie at Red State makes this observation regarding Chris Wallace's statement....

There are two things to note here, in my view. One, Wallace’s assertion that Psaki is one of the “best” press secretaries ever just doesn’t pass muster. She’s easily flustered, often unprepared (hence the “circle back” meme), and lies continually (see here, here, and here). Now, to be fair, is she good at lying for the president? Yes, she’s pretty good at it and has learned to mix snark and outrage in order to push false narratives to a largely compliant press corps.

But does being good at lying make one a good press secretary? I don’t think so, and I don’t think Wallace thinks so — given he’s never been so kind in the past to Republican press secretaries who are good at spin. Rather, I think he’s just a partisan hack who can find little fault with the current White House because he’s sympathetic to it.

Take Kayleigh McEnany, who served under Donald Trump as a press secretary, as an example. McEnany was objectively excellent at her job regardless of what one thought about the president. She was highly prepared, organized, and always had answers for even the most random, politically biased questions. She didn’t tell reporters over and over that she’ll “circle back.” McEnany even often had visual aids to make her points.

Did Wallace ever praise her for being good at her job? No, instead he trashed her as intellectually dishonest and hostile to the press corps. I’d quibble with that characterization, but if dishonesty and hostility were a problem for Wallace in regards to McEnany, why is it not in regards to Psaki? Instead, the Fox News Sunday host praises the latter and has rarely, if ever, mustered an ounce of criticism toward her.

If there was any remaining doubt that Wallace is an idiot, this takes care of it.

This isn’t even difficult. FOX bonuses are tied to ratings and they get mucus higher ratings with a Dem in there. They play the timing game every time. They want the Base to tune in and they offer up red meat. Six or Eight weeks or so before the Election, they turn. The Debate is always the sand with Wallace portraying the Republican as a Racist. The rest of FOX hails Chrissy for his debate, and the FOX refuses to run Republican Ads (like on the border). Fox makes it final programming about some salacious allegation WAPO and the NYTs offers up.

Rinse and repeat.

Being able to lie within a millisecond is a very helpful skill.

That growing nose? CW: “It helps to keep my glasses on and does make it easier to get high on my own body odor.”

“Stinks” is certainly not in his vocabulary (not unless he’s speaking about DJT, conservatives, republicans, and American patriots.

I assume Chris’s nose shot out about 2 feet after that whopper.


Not likely. His nose did, however, have a little ginger fecal matter on its tip.
