Eric Bolling Adds Media Matters To The Cain Conspiracy
Glenn Beck had his Caliphate Clues, now The Five’s Eric Bolling has his Cain Conspiracy Cabal™. News Hounds reported Tuesday how Bolling blamed shadowy “Democrat” operatives for the Herman Cain sexual harassment allegations. Against all logic and evidence to the contrary, he contended the Democratic Party has been working behind the scenes to tear down Republicans and Right Wing candidates; this is just Cain’s turn in the dunk tank. Not content to leave it there, Bolling doubled down the next night. He added “the left wing nutjobs at Media Matters and all the other leftie blogs” (which includes News Hounds, I guess) to the clandestine group trying to take down Herman Cain. Watch:

Bobby Jindal Makes A Campaign Stop On Hannity
Governor Bobby Jindal of Louisiana won re-election in a landslide Saturday. But the night before (10/21/11), he made a campaign stop on the Hannity show. Sean Hannity was such a cheerleader for Jindal, he might as well have been waving a “Vote for Bobby!” sign during the fawning segment that passed for an interview.

Pat Buchanan Too Bigoted Even For Hannity
Regular readers know that Sean Hannity has a very, very disturbing record on race. But even he seemed skeptical about Pat Buchanan’s theory that diminishing numbers of white people represent an existential threat to the Republican Party and, by extension the country. Buchanan's solution? Cut off immigration so that the current under class can “move up” and become Republicans. Hannity didn’t want to go there but he warmly offered to have Buchanan back (i.e. help rehabilitate his image) when he gets in trouble for those views.

Debbie Wasserman-Schultz Goes Three Rounds Against Fox & Friends Tag Team And Wins
No one has ever accused those Foxy Friends in the morning of being neither “fair” nor “balanced.” In fact, Fox “News” insists the morning show is part of the opinion side of the network [even though the opinions are pretty much indistinguishable from what’s on the “news” side of the network]. Yesterday’s 3-against-1 on the Curvy Couch only proves the rule that the morning show is Happy Talk disguised as GOP propaganda. All three Fox and Friends bravely went up against lone Congressional Representative, and Chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, Debbie Wasserman-Schultz. DWS proved more than capable of going several rounds with the Curvy Couch Tag Team and they never laid a glove on her. Each time DWS exhausted one of the Three Stooges, another one popped up. Not only did DWS defeat them on points, she managed to get in some serious blows of her own. While almost 10 minutes long, it’s well worth watching the whole thing. Or, you can read my exciting play-by-play below the fold.

Eric Bolling: Fox's New Conspiracy Theorist
When Fox “News” unceremoniously dumped Glen Beck, conspiracy nuts across the planet not only mourned his loss, but actually spun it into their web of conspiracy theories: authorities needed to silence The Beckinator because he was getting too close to the truth. With Beck off cable, where could nut jobs go to get their [free] daily adult requirement of conspiracy theories? Not everyone is flush enough to fork over whatever crazy amount it costs to subscribe Beck’s webalicious GB[L]TV. Genius that he is, Eric Bolling has recognized that fact and has sought to fill the gap by spewing one whacked out conspiracy theory after another. Hardeep Dhillon of Media Matters makes that very point in an article titled, “Bolling Uses Obama's Support Of Israel To Claim He Doesn't Support Israel.” According to Dhillon:
