This is so wrong. He should have called it flying boobs.

He meant “Boob in the White Hut”

Well, she’s a pilot, so her boobs aren’t on the ground. They’re in the air, dumbass.

Although I think PC has gone too far, and all humor has become risky, the fact is that this guy talks for a living, in a medium which is scrutinized heavily by people who are looking to find fault.

In my life, I haven't made a joke like "boobs on the ground" in 20-30 years. I'm careful.

This guy is on TV? Saying stuff like that? Either he's stupid, or immature, or both. I don't mind the sexism so much, but he's showcasing extreme lack of judgment. Maybe he should work in the mailroom.

Both he and Gutfeld are apologizing for making silly jokes that nobody would even give a second thought about in a sane world.

The fact that are making jokes about a Foreigner makes the supposed “outrage” even more suspect.

Meanwhile, Letterman, Stewart and any number of Liberal Comics can say anything about Conservative American Women, joking or not, and it’s all good.

The double standard is alive and well.

I got into trouble once when I referred to my wife’s bra as “flopper stoppers”.

We were out jogging together and that was about 43 years ago, so I think I am going to survive the comment. ;>)

He’ll probably end up getting fired. The aholes living in this country don’t know how to laugh anymore. Everybody is too busy looking for something to be “offended” about. Wusses.

He was an idiot to say that.

The rest of the networks are having a field day, using it to skewer Fox News and Conservatives.

Moreover, EVERYONE on this board is constantly saying (and rightly so) that the Muslims treat women worse than dogs, and it should be condemned. Women lack basic rights in most Muslim nations, including even driving a car. This was a UAE pilot, and the female Fox reporter was heralding the fact that ISIS murderers were getting bombed by an Arab woman.

And what does Eric Bolling do? Make a stupid, sexist joke. Thanks. With friends like these........

Here's the dilemma. I wouldn't make a crude joke like that. It's crass, and any broadcast should be watchable without scandal by anyone two feet high who wanders into the room.

But putting girls in the military—or police, or fire, etc.—is not just crass, it's obscene. It's toying with everyone's safety and with the military woman's privacy and dignity, and sticking her cross-dressing act in our faces. It's taunting all of us, demanding that we remain polite and not call the corrupt bureaucrats on their lie that a woman is any offensive use in combat—that it could even be appropriate to intentionally put a woman in harm's way.

So, while I wouldn't do what the guy did, out of good manners and morals, I can sympathize. His description of the purpose and effect of putting some lady-commander in a plane so she could be a tourist in a Mideast hot zone, and so some Obama suck-up in the brass could check off a box, was 100-percent accurate.

'I made a joke and when I got home, I got the look, and realized some people didn't think it was funny at all,' Bolling said on the air today. I said sorry to my wife and I apologize to all of you as well and want to make that very clear.'

So he apologized to his wife and his co-workers...but not to Major al Mansouri? And if I recall correctly this was shortly after he took Obama to task for lack of respect for the military because of his salute.

People need to lighten up. No apology was necessary. Maybe if he would refer to “balls on the ground” the liberal scorekeepers would call it even. Probably not.

I saw the movie `All Is Lost’ last night, starring Boob Redford in a no-talking role.
It was about a geriatric Boob trying to keep his boat up.
He was pretty spry, not sagging as one might think.

Whenever a woman enters a new male-dominated field, they find the same hesitation, the same prejudice, the same stereotype thinking.

If you can't stand the heat, go back to the kitchen.

The more I watch this guy, the more I am convinced she should be off the air.

It’s nice that Joan Rivers’s writers didn’t have any trouble finding work again ...

I like Eric. Not the cookie cutter TV news type.

I don’t get the joke?

Over my head I guess.

I call people boobs, morons, goons, all the time.

Why would he be talking about her breasts and the fact that they were on the ground?

Perhaps he was taken out of context?
