Michelle Bachmann handled Chris Wallace's "Flake" comment with poise and informed him of her years of service to the people of America in several political roles, her successful 33 year marriage, five children and 23 foster children. Wallace looked like an idiot. He was smart to apologize - I wonder if someone sat him down in the corner office and had a few words???

You screwed up Chris! Your question did nothing but give creedence to the lefts argument that Bachmann cannot and should not be taken seriously as a candidate for President of the US. Flipping through the channels last night I saw ABC "News" mention that she has alreasy been paradeed on SNL. That is just the first step. Since when is what they do on SNL important? My advice to you would be to use better judgement next time.

Good apology. Giving her a chance to respond to the liberal media calling her flakey was a good thing to do.

If Chris Wallace ever gets to interview Obama, will he ask him if he is a featherhead?

If one alpha male made a comment like that to another alpha male, he'd end up spitting out teeth. As it is, anything goes with females. Wallace should grovel for his crass insensitivity

You WERE rude. Throughout the whole interview. You interrupted constantly and repeatedly and tried to shove your words into her mouth.

Your apology tries to dodge full responsibility. You "found" yourself asking if she is a flake? It's a notion "other" people have suggested? Who? Please be specific.

It wasn't just rude. It was a flaming insult coming from the one network that liberals claim is conservative; that claims itself to be fair and balanced.

In the interest of 'balance', maybe you can list for us all the serious liberal candidates for President that you have accused of being a "flake" over the years.

If you're going to channel your shamelessly liberal father go work for CBS like he did.

Apology accepted. Thanks for making the apology - I was one of those who was upset about the question.
