Fox's Eric Bolling Mad at Bill Maher for Using the Term 'Teabaggers'
By Heather Friday Apr 02, 2010 9:00am

Apparently Fox's Eric Bolling isn't too happy with Bill Maher for something he said during his appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno:

Maher: ‘I thank the Tea Baggers’ for health care reform:

But when talk show host Jay Leno asked Maher about health care reform on Wednesday, Maher replied, "I thank the Tea Baggers. They're the ones who got it passed,"

Maher acknowledged that the Tea Partiers might be confused by his gratitude. "I'm sure they're saying, 'What are you talking about Bill?'" he suggested. "'I was so against the health care bill I marched on Washington with tea bags hanging from my hat, dressed up in my Founding Fathers costume, with a picture of Hitler, you know, and Obama's face on him, screaming about his birth certificate.'"

"And America saw that," Maher concluded, "and said, 'What loons. We're going with the calm black man. These idiots can't even spell, 'Go back to Kenya.'" Read on...http://rawstory.com/rs/2010/0401/maher-credits-teabaggers-passage-health-care-reform/

Apparently that didn't sit too well with Eric Bolling who said this on the April 1 edition of Fox & Friends. From Media Matters -- Bolling: "There was only one teabagger" at the Tonight Show "and it was Mr. Maher"

Bolling wouldn't have anything to be upset about if these Tea Partiers hadn't called themselves "teabaggers" until they figured out how unfortunate that choice of name was.

7. Speaking of Sarah...
...not sure about her, but doesn't Todd, the kids & the grandkids all get some kind of special government-run Eskimo healthcare? Seriously. I remember reading something in Levi's legal papers about it.

13. It felt to me like confirmation that Leno and audience are RW
as they had difficulty laughing at some obviously funny jokes, nobody booed that Leno talked to Rove the criminal, etc. I wouldn't watch Leno if somebody paid me anyway because he does seem like a less wacko Hannity but less funny. Bill is okay. Thanks for posting.

10. The full interview is on jaylenoshow.com but...
The Idaho thing is that Idaho courts found that if you are pulled over for something not pot related and they then find weed you can't get in trouble.

15. Cram it, Bill
He has to be #1 when it comes to pulling things down off of YouTube. I'm a tepid fan of his, and his show is pretty interesting to watch, but I'm not going to go out of my way to watch him, especially when he makes it difficult.

16. Bill Maher is hilarious as usual and Jay Leno is a corporate puppet as usual!
Bill Hicks was right about that Doritto shilling whore.
