It wasn’t just his question to Newt.
His opening questions all had a personal jab to them. They were questions he would ask on his interview show....this wasn’t his show.
Wallace intentionally started an argument between Bachman & Pawlenty. What was the point of that?
Yep, his only goal was to stir up controversy. It was disappointing that it wasn’t until he got to Newt, that someone called him down on it. I would have felt much better about Bachmann, Pawlenty, and Romney if they had refused to take him up on it and thrown it back in his face.
