Ed Schultz: Eric Bolling Is ‘Auditioning To Be Fox’s Chief New Nutjob’
We reported last night on the strange and clumsy criticism of President Obama from Fox Business’ Eric Bolling and MSNBC’s Ed Schultz noticed it too, theorizing this is the rhetoric necessary to try and get Glenn Beck‘s job. Schultz summarized a few examples of Bolling’s extreme comments and concluded Bolling is well on his way to filling Beck’s shoes.
Schultz suggested “Bolling sure sounds like he is auditioning to be Fox’s chief new nutjob.” Some of the examples Schultz rattled off included Bolling recently reading a list of people that his viewers wanted to see waterboarded, which included President Obama, and Bolling’s attempt to keep the issue about Obama’s birth certificate alive. Yet it was Bolling’s criticism of Obama last night, and how he is drinking beer rather than visiting tornado victims in Missouri, that put Schultz over the edge:
“He put his own racial spin on it . . . kicking the racist language up a notch . . . ‘Chugging a few 40′s? Entertaining rappers?’ He’s not even trying to hide his racial subtext.”
Schultz smartly refrains from calling Bolling an outright racist, since there isn’t much humor in such an accusation, however the “nutjob” charge itself is entertaining and might be enough to convince Bolling to jump in the sandbox and respond.
