http://bluenationreview.com/fox-news-hosts-get-butts-handed-us-veterans/Every day at Fox News is an insert-foot-in-mouth day, but on this one particular day they earned the wrath of over 50 veterans with their insensitive and juvenile response to a UAE female fighter pilot leading attacks on ISIS.
After United Arab Emirates Air Force Major Mariam Al Mansouri was praised on Fox by co-host Kimberly Guilfoyle for her courage, Eric Bolling and Greg Gutfeld chimed in with their inappropriate and misogynistic remarks: After she bombed it, she couldnt park it, and Would that be considered boobs on the ground, or no? WTH, are they 10 years old? If It had been me sitting in the chair next to them I would have had to get up and walk out. The boobs were obviously Bolling and Gutfeld.
Over 50 veterans (by my count 60) of the United States armed forces signed an open letter to Fox News, which was posted on Talking Points Memo, chewing Bolling and Gutfeld a new one. ..
The letter went on to point out that it has long been on record that women can fly as well as men, having had over 1,000 women pilots in World War II known as WASPs, and that the accomplishment of being the first woman fighter pilot in UAEs history is a BFD, and Bolling and Gutfeld chose to shit all over it. (My words, not theirs.) The veterans then set the two straight about their lack of judgment and respect.
