FNC's Wallace: Ted Cruz Is Like a Japanese Soldier Who Thinks the War Is ‘Still Going On'
Fox News host Chris Wallace said on Sunday that Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) was like a Japanese soldier who thinks World War II is "still going on" because he is questioning the presidential election results.

Wallace said, "It would seem to me that Republicans on Capitol Hill have a role to play in this. A very few of them have said, look, you pursue your legal options, but, you know, damn down the rhetoric, like Mitt Romney, like Pat Toomey."

He added, "There are a lot who are just silent. And then there are some — I mentioned Ted Cruz — you know who are like the Japanese soldiers who come out 30 years after the war — out of the jungle — and say, ’Is the fight still going on?'"

#1 What could Wallace possibly know of soldiering, commitment, and duty ?

#2 ...er Newsmax TV Surpasses Fox Business, CNBC in Key Ratings.

It's like no one knows how to play this game. You have a dozen+ news channels appealing to half the country. That leaves one or two that will appeal to the other half. Guess who's going to end up with a larger share of audience and revenue.

#3 Apparently Fox News has forgotten the 1st rule of holes. When you are in a hole step 1 STOP DIGGING

#4 What could Wallace possibly know of soldiering, commitment, and duty?

Never in a military realm, but as for his alliances with the Left/MSM, those attributes fit him perfectly.

#5 I read someone who called this metaphor racist, but if so that means Gilligan's island and Six Million Dollar man were racist for using that plot-line (okay the Gilligan one had a pretty racist caricature of the Japanese guy was bad but the storyline itself is not).

Still the metaphor is stupid.

#7 Dims playing wack-a-mole. They swung DrudgeReeport and FauxNews the last 4 years but up pops NewsMax, BonginoReport and Rantingly.

As they try to wack Cruz, incomes Beth Van Duyne who just won her first election to Congress.

She is also a Texas rep and took on and beat clockboy jihad lawsuit against Irving as Mayor of Irving, Texas, suburb of Dallas

#8 You heard it here first. Beth will go up against "The Squad" and Pelosi face to face. Muslims filled the council chambers to side with clockboy. Beth preached to them to accept the American way for about 10 minutes in a non confrontational but firm talk. It made a positive impact.

#10 I quit watching Chris Wallace long ago. He has no credibility. I avoid him like herpes.

#12 Chris, I'll gladly offer my BDS to offset your TDS. What is it about NYC and LA that turns people into scum sucking elitists?
