Thor0001, who saw the original version of the Chris Wallace "Are
you a flake?" video on Fox News Sunday that was an interview
between the Fox News anchor and Congresswoman Michele Bach-
mann (below), rightly thought this should have been an interview
between Wallace and the nation's "most brilliant, articulate" politi-
cian (according to the media).

On June 26, 2011 Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace had Congresswoman Michele Bachmann on his program, and blindsided her with the question: "Are you a flake?" His question stemmed from several gaffes Backmann has made over the course of her six year in Congress that put a liberal bullseye on her. Statements like Concord and Lexington were in New Hampshire and not Massachusetts; or real truth when she said we had a "gangster government" in Washington. One bad gaffe was saying "Let's appreciate and value everyone's cultures. But guess what—not all cultures are equal." Bad statement. Essentially correct, phrased wrong. But probably the goofiest statement I can think of, was her CPAC speech when she said: "And I just wondered, if our Founders thought taxation without representation was bad, what would they think of representation with taxation?" Huh?

But Thor0001 is correct. Backmann is a hands-down Rhodes Scholar compared to Barack Obama who can barely recite his name without a teleprompter. The real tragedy is the open bias the media shows in protecting the errors, deliberate lies and distortions of the left, and their attempt to demonize conservatives in the United States.
