Cracked conservatives: Fox’s little white slip is showing. Again.

Cracked conservatives

The good news is that there’s no racism in the mainstream anymore:



This is not the first time Bolling has used racially charged rhetoric on Fox. Last June, on his Fox Business show, Bolling teased a segment about the White House hosting the president of Gabon by saying, “Guess who’s coming to dinner? A dictator. Mr. Obama shares a laugh with one of Africa’s kleptocrats. It’s not the first time he’s had a hoodlum in the hizzouse.” He began the segment itself by saying, in part, “So what’s with all the hoods in the hizzy?” He later issued a brief — and dishonest — apology for the segment.

In May 2011, Bolling claimed Obama was “chugging a few 40s” instead of responding to devastating tornadoes in Joplin, Missouri. Bolling later tried to walk back his “chugging 40s” comment by pretending that he hadn’t engaged in racially charged rhetoric and asserting that he “took some heat for saying Obama should have delayed his European bar crawl.”

He’s a racist piece of trash. Just kidding!!

Update: Alternet is featuring the 10 most repulsive Fox News employees. Bolling, needless to say, makes the cut. The other nine are no picnics.
