Clueless Fox News sock puppet Eric Bolling says "no domestic terrorist attacks during Bush admin"
Fox News host forgets 9/11 happened under Bush

Posted on 07.14.11
By Stephen C. Webster

Eric Bolling, a talk show host on the conservative Fox News Channel, wrongly claimed Wednesday that there were no domestic terrorist attacks during the Bush administration, apparently forgetting that the worst terrorist attack in the nation’s history occurred on the former president’s watch.

President George W. Bush’s former spokeswoman, Dana Perino, was also on the program with Bolling, but she made no effort to correct his misstatement.

Perino instead tried to correct one guest who reminded viewers that the Bush administration hyped an alleged threat of “weapons of mass destruction” to scare lawmakers into supporting an unprovoked war against Iraq.

This video is from Fox News, broadcast July 13, 2011. http://www.rawstory.com/rawreplay/2011/07/fox-news-host-forgets-911-happened-under-bush/

2. Ah, but half their viewers probably think 9/11 happened under Clinton or something.
The level of delusion you can induce some people to is amazing.

6. It DID! It DID!
Bill Clinton stepped into a time machine, and right after receiving sexual favors from Monica Lewinski, he IGNORED the "Bin Laden Determined To Strike In The U.S." document that would not be PRINTED until BUSH took office.

When in doubt, ALWAYS blame the CLENIS.

:rofl:

:patriot:

5. Does 9/11 count as a "domestic terrorist attack" ?
It wasn't by homegrown terrorists like Oklahoma City.

7. Summary execution is appropriate for anyone who tells a lie that big.

8. Pretty soon they're going to start saying the Sept. 11 attacks happened in 2000.
