14,000 People Demand Chris Wallace Ask Rice About The U.S.S. Cole

This morning, we suggested that readers email Chris Wallace and tell him to ask Condoleezza Rice the following question:

Prior to 9/11, you had eight months to respond to the al-Qaeda attack on the U.S.S. Cole. Why didn’t the Bush administration take action and put al-Qaeda out of business?

After all, Wallace asked President Clinton this question last month, even though the “CIA and the FBI refused to certify that Bin Laden was responsible” until early 2001, which foreclosed the possibility of a full response during the Clinton administration.

Also, Chris Wallace said he asked Clinton because “I got a lot of e-mail from viewers.” So far 10,000 people have emailed Wallace and told him to ask this question. Join this effort HERE.

We’ll monitor Fox News Sunday this weekend and let you know how Wallace responds.

UPDATE: As of 9PM, 14,000 people sent emails to Chris Wallace.
