Wallace went on to criticize a different past TV docudrama he said included inaccurate scenes about his father Mike Wallace, claiming they were hurtful to his family.

What was it that Mike Wallace was heard saying over a microphone at the dedication of the World War II Memorial? Something about Bush?

1. Mike Wallace Doubts Bush’s “Validity,” Says Iraq Not “Good War”
CBS News veteran Mike Wallace, at a Smithsonian Institution “National World War II Reunion” event on Friday shown later by C-SPAN, denounced the war in Iraq. “This is not, in my estimation, a good war,” Wallace declared. “I don’t know how we got into a position where our present Commander-in-Chief and the people around him,” the 60 Minutes correspondent lamented, “had the guts to take our kids and send them on what seems to be -- it sure is not a noble enterprise.” Citing President George W. Bush’s lack of military experience, both Wallace and fellow panelist Allen Neuharth, founder of USA Today, unfavorably compared him to George Washington and Wallace contrasted Bush with President Franklin Roosevelt, but failed to acknowledge that FDR lacked any military experience.

Gee, I bet that was "hurtful" to the Bush family, huh?

Frankly, I don't care WHOSE feelings were hurt. No one seems to have cared about George Bush's feelings, nor his wife's, nor his daughters', nor his parents, for the last 6 years.

If President Bush can put up with the absolute crap that has been said about him for the last six years, and by golly he has, then ask me how much I care about the Wallace family having their feelings hurt or (as if) BILL CLINTON. Feh.
