Yes. I'm waiting for Mike and him to get a room after all the butt-kissing he's doing.

Oh Wallace could NEVER get a straight answer out of that fanatic...the interview was pathetic!!!! I was expecting something definitely different after all the coverage given to it....to say the least I was not impressed...

I watched. Ahmadinejad had the Democrats talking points...45 million without health care, 1% in prison, blah, blah, blah. Wallace seemed to get a little snippy with his indirect answers. But Wallace completely failed when he decided to refer to the Christian references in Ahmadinejad's letter to the President. That entire theocratic screed ended with:

Liberalism and Western-style democracy have not been able to help realize the ideals of humanity. Today these two concepts have failed. Those with insight can already hear the sounds of the shattering and fall of the ideology and thoughts of the Liberal democratic systems.

You would think Wallace might have been at least a bit interested in this. Instead he made Ahmadinejad look like some reasonable man looking only for a good Christian partner in peace.

To be fair, word is that Mike Wallace also finds some card tricks 'mystifying' and 'spellbinding.' ;-)

Mike Wallace is a certifiable fool. Every liberal who comes back from a meeting with a dictator seems to find him admirable. These are the same people who can't find a kind word to say about America's President.

I agree with you.

The interview was a complete failure. Wallace as hard as he tried couldn't get this guy to answer his questions. I'm sure there was a lot more to the interview but was edited out...leaving only the parts that they think and hope will get the American public to lean toward Iran over their own country and President Bush. Typical of the dimwits we're dealing with...

You can count on the edited out part was showing him as the fanatic HE IS!!!!!

Maybe not quite "in the clouds":
I found a link with a photo of Mike Wallace demonstrating his head at rest in that particular location:

I say we googlebomb his blog for the #1 result when searching for the phrase "goat sex".

And just for good luck, I'll mention: miserable failure too.

Chris Wallace: Mike Wallace Has 'Lost It'
NewsMax ^ 12/11/2005

"Fox News Sunday" anchorman Chris Wallace says father Mike Wallace has "lost it" - after the legendary CBS newsman told the Boston Globe last week that the fact George Bush had been elected president shows America is "[expletive]-up."

"He's lost it. The man has lost it. What can I say," the younger Wallace lamented to WRKO Boston radio host Howie Carr on Friday.

"He's 87-years old and things have set in," the Fox anchor continued. "I mean, we're going to have a competence hearing pretty soon."

Wallace Jr. quickly dispelled any notion that he was joking. When Carr suggested that his comments were likely to be covered by NewsMax, he responded: "You know what? Fine. Go ahead. Call them. That's fine. I'll stand by that." ...

On Thursday, the elder Wallace told the Boston Globe that if he had the chance to interview President Bush, he'd ask:

"What in the world prepared you to be the commander in chief of the largest superpower in the world? In your background, Mr. President, you apparently were incurious. You didn't want to travel. You knew very little about the military. . . . The governor of Texas doesn't have the kind of power that some governors have. . . . Why do you think they nominated you? . . . Do you think that has anything to do with the fact that the country is so [expletive] up?" (Excerpt)

Mike Wallace (ABC) Finds Ahmadinejad 'Impressive'

I'm sure the feeling was NOT mutual...

[DoctorMichael]

Funny. I found him to be a beady eyed, prevaricating, little rat-boy.

I saw the interview and the soft ball questions were very obvious. It was almost like Wallace was infatuated with him. It was possibly the worst interview I ever saw. I am serious. It was so "sweet" and fluffy I almost choked on all the sugar. They kept looking at each other and smiling. It was actually very disturbing. Honestly I don't normally care how an interview goes conservative or liberal and half the time don't listen or even watch, but that interview was pure train wreck and you could not help but watch.

This is the same Mike Wallace who tried to bring down Alticor(one of the greatest free-enterprise entities ever created) back in the early '80s. To hear his condescending tone on Hannity's show the other day, I wanted to cuss him out right to his face---I don't care how old he is.

Wallace is, was and always will be vile scum, just like the tyrants he cozies up to.
