Yesterday, in response to the lengthy, multiple-sourced Washington Post article about Mitt Romney’s troubling behavior in high school, especially toward gays, Eric Bolling responded by announcing on both The Five and Hannity that Barack Obama had been a drug dealer. But this morning, Bolling tweeted a retraction and an apology. UPDATED
As Media Matters reported, Bolling tweeted:
So will Hannity offer the same apology to his viewers tonight?
You can watch the clips of Bolling saying President Obama sold drugs below, via Media Matters, which has more on the smear.
UPDATE: Just as you probably guessed, Hannity offered no such apology.

Bolling had to tweet it? He couldn’t explain and offer a verbal apology on The Five? Yeah, the sincerity is off to a real good start right there…
Oh, and Hannity will air the apology when he stops laughing at what Bolling’s apologizing for.

Eric is still a bigoted twit. It amazing, when someone like Boling says this racist crap, and get to host another show, it makes me think what Adrew Sullivan said about the workings of Fox News, if someone says something Bigoted they get rewarded.
