“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.”

Eric Bolling is one of the most gentlemanly talk show heads on Fox. He made a joke, it wasn’t taken well by many, and e apologized because the PC crowd couldn’t handle the joke. By the way, Bolling was a Wall Street trader for years, made lots of money in oil trades, knows everything about the oil business, and is a real smart cookie. He is independently wealthy, a great capitalist, is a good Catholic (goes to church just about every day before going into work at Fox), is good looking, has a beautiful and wonderfully nice wife according to all who know her, and a son he dearly loves. Eric also played professional league baseball for a while when younger. His Saturday morning show “Cashin In” on Fox Business News is the highest rated show than all of the other Saturday shows on other channels, combined.

And what are your accomplishments as you hurdle out the insults towards Bolling when you don’t know squat about him. When you talk for a living, the pitfalls are many. He makes very few mistakes. Allow him one, especially in light of his apology which, by the way, he made twice on TV, not just once. But then you must be perfect and make no mistakes, right?

I agree 100%

Boiling is probably of the nicest guys on and off air.
He made a dumb joke. People need top watch The Five or develop a sense of humor.

I didn’t know this about him. Thank you for taking the time to give us a sketch of this man’s life. We all make mistakes. How good of him to apologize... good example for fans to emulate.

Your commentary is spot-on. Eric to me is the mainstay and quiet leavening agent when he's on the various panels...always low-key, astute and a gentleman.

I remember when Obama made his infamous "Apology Tour". It appears The Won's asinine cowering behavior has become infectious, if not epidemic, in some parts of the population...as the posts of the permanently-outraged/offended freepers here have displayed.

Bolling's remark reflected a humorous and topical play on words...and Greg Gutfeld, who is a political satirist, got a good one off about the female pilot's "parking the plane". It gave me a good laugh...and I'm a female.

Looks like this forum is getting a little top-heavy with political correctness, apology tourists, and prissy metrosexuals.

And Guilfoyle should move over to Whoopi's "The View" if she's so easily "offended".
