Fox News’ Eric Bolling Hammers ‘Liberal Goon Squad’ of Stewart, Colbert, Maher

Fox News’ Eric Bolling Hammers ‘Liberal Goon Squad’ of Stewart, Colbert, Maher (NewsBusters)

During Saturday morning's edition of the Cashin' In program on the Fox News Channel, host Eric Bolling called for people in the military to be paid far more than the $15 per hour minimum wage “burger flippers” are looking for -- even though it means he'll be attacked by “the liberal posse” of Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert and Bill Maher.

While neither of the Comedy Central hosts have yet to respond, a blogger at the Crooks and Liars website charged that Bolling -- who also serves as a co-host of the channel's weekday program The Five – “has to resort to making stuff up out of whole cloth to get his digs in these days.”

Bolling began the program's final segment -- which was entitled Wake Up, America!” -- by stating that while “we're all about the money,” but whenever “I call out food stamp abuse or minimum wage rage, Colbert, Stewart and the rest of the liberal posse jump down my throat, claiming I don't care about the takers.”
