what is it with these respected journalist fathers with idiot wingnut sons?
mike wallace --> chris wallace

bill plante --> chris plante

they're both are named "chris" and don't have half the intellect or integrity as the dads.

1. How about Bill and Willie Geist?
Edited on Fri Mar-27-09 05:55 PM by panader0
Willie was always on Tucker's show.
edit to add: Bill Geist is not respected.

2. Maybe the dads earned their creds, the sons were handed it. Much like GWB...n/t

3. Someone came up with a great phrase to describe my governor, the odious Mark Sanford
According to a columnist in the alternative newsweekly Columbia Citypaper, "he was born on the home plate and thinks he hit a home run". Seems to be a common Republican trait.
