Eric Bolling: Fox's Conspiracy Man
http://mediamatters.org/research/201109210011

Fox host Eric Bolling has recently pushed the conspiracy theory that Palestinians are timing their request for the United Nations to recognize their statehood status in order to make President Obama look "pro-Israel." Bolling has repeatedly used his Fox platform to push conspiracy theories against the president.
Bolling Declares Palestinian Push For UN Statehood To Be A "Set Up" To Make Obama Look "Pro-Israel"

Bolling: "I'm Mad Because I Think This Is All A Set Up" To Make Obama Look "Pro-Israel." During the September 19 edition of Fox News' The Five, co-host Eric Bolling said:

BOLLING: I'm mad because I think this is all a set up. I think this is -- the Palestinians say: "Hey, Mr. Obama, we want -- we're thinking about asking for statehood." And they know very well the Obama administration is going to say "No way, not now, this is not the time." And then when we go into the election Obama is going to go, "Oh, look what I did all you Israeli vote -- Israel, Jewish voters. Vote for me. I am pro-Israel." Meanwhile, everything he's done is anti-Israel up until this point.

4. Much like ANYthing a Republican former commodities trader turned "news anchor" would say.
See: Santelli, Richard (CNBC)

3. ...and snorts ten grams of coke off of it.
It would seem drug-induced psychosis is a pre-requisite to be hired on as a Fox commentator.

5. Not true, so quit saying that.
If you're a paranoid wackjob without the drugs, on the basis of pure natural talent, you're good to go.

6. I think failing a drug test is a pre-requisite to getting hired on at Fox.
But being a paranoid conspiracy nut on top of that gets your application put on the 'fast-track'.


Blonde, long-legged, boob job, coke-addled paranoid and they'd give you three hours a night.
