Fox News' Eric Bolling: 'I Don't Remember' Any Terrorist Attacks On America During President Bush's Term (VIDEO)
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/07/14/eric-bolling-terrorist-attacks-bush_n_898135.html
Fox News host Eric Bolling pulled a Rudy Giuliani on Wednesday, asserting that there were no terrorist attacks on "American soil" during President Bush's term in office.

Giuliani famously made a similar assertion in early 2010, saying, "we had no domestic attacks under Bush." Of course, the 9/11 attacks happened under Bush.

Bolling's misstatement came during a discussion on the network's Glenn Beck replacement show, "The Five." He and a panel—which included former Bush spokeswoman Dana Perino—were arguing about whether Bush had been guilty of "fear-mongering" during his tenure. Panelist Bob Beckel said that the former president had used fear-mongering around the non-existent weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. As he attempted to continue his point, Bolling cut him off and started to move on to the next segment.

"America was certainly safe between 2000 and 2008," he said. "I don't remember any attacks on American soil during that period of time." Nobody on the panel challenged this comment.

Fox news is great at revising history, just like any good conservative.



farglebargle -> RE: Fox news Doesnt remember 9/11 (7/14/2011 2:33:37 PM)

Remember how terrorist Anthrax attacks sent through US Mails resulted in the deaths of multiple people during the Bush Administration?

I don't think there you have any fear of finding a MENSA member working for FOX News,



Fightdirecto -> RE: Fox news Doesnt remember 9/11 (7/14/2011 6:30:14 PM)

Remembr that great line during the Cheney/Bush administration: "Facts have a liberal bias".



tweakabelle -> RE: Fox news Doesnt remember 9/11 (7/15/2011 12:52:47 AM)

Seems like credibility has a liberal bias too!



Owner59 -> RE: Fox news Doesnt remember 9/11 (7/15/2011 2:42:30 AM)



Ahhhh,they meant "besides" 9/11......[8|]

Of course the meaningless caveat "on American soil", let`s the neo-cons off the hook for getting more than 4000 GI`s attacked and killed in Iraq.As if those soldiers lives and deaths, were less meaningful.

Then the former spokes blond starts complaining about bush getting blamed for lying and duping us into invading Iraq......poor poor neo-cons....so put upon....so innocent....[8|]

So fucking willfully ignorant to the point of criminal negligence.



joether -> RE: Fox news Doesnt remember 9/11 (7/15/2011 3:08:50 AM)

What a retarded and highly insulting talking head. But than, this is FOX News. Are any of you expecting that 'news' station to vet people based on their intelligence, education, reasoning, and/or knowledge/history? Who takes FOX News as a credibile source of information?



Lucylastic -> RE: Fox news Doesnt remember 9/11 (7/15/2011 4:57:30 AM)

The poor poor baby, we on the left are so so petty

On Thursday's episode, he addressed his critics directly, with his voice shaking. Bolling said that "obviously" he had meant that there were no domestic terror attacks in the aftermath of 9/11, but that the "radical liberal left pounced on us and me" instead of letting the statement go.

LMAO now shall we count the ways people like him on faux have jumped all over "misspeaks" nah cant be bothered to count, but the radical liberal left are all so evil, ugly people, snickers.What a dumbass.
little boy crying wolf



Owner59 -> RE: Fox news Doesnt remember 9/11 (7/15/2011 5:16:48 AM)

The guilt and depression from being associated with bush and his fuck-ups is going to keep neo-cons like that one defensive and edgy forever.For-ev-er!

Revising history is really to big a job when one considers that most people think bush/cheney/dick duped us.

Come on folks… I think Fox news is as biased as they come but this example of a misstatement in the heat of a debate is a little weak to be accusing an entire network of purposely revising history...You and I know what he was trying to say...even if he was wrong.

Lucylastic -> RE: Fox news Doesnt remember 9/11 (7/15/2011 8:43:11 AM)

Does it strike you as an odd coincidence that Dana Perino was on that show and she previously said the exact same thing?


Perino: "We did not have a terrorist attack on our country during President Bush's term."


 We did not have a terrorist attack on our country during...


Judging by the fact they both said the same thing, nearly word for word, I can only assume this to be a concerted attempt at revisionist history which somehow absolves Bush of any responsibility and turns him into some kind of hero because there was not a second failure on his watch.

Wasn't one enough?

If it was said with forethought for a purpose...what the hell would it be? I mean what gain politically would there be?

Goebbels style propaganda?  the old theory of "no matter how big a lie you tell, of you tell it over and over with authority, it becomes truth" (Paraphrased)
