Fox host walks back ‘crack’ comment

By on February 18, 2012 in Politics

Fox News commentator Eric Bolling insisted he was just joking Thursday after saying that Rep. Maxine Waters should “step away from the crack pipe.”

“What is going on in California? How’s this? Congresswoman, you saw what happened to Whitney Houston. Step away from the crack pipe, step away from the Xanax, step away from the Lorazepam because it’s going to get you in trouble.” Bolling said about Waters on “Fox and Friends.” “How else do you explain those comments?”

The comment elicited nervous laughter from Bolling’s co-host, Gretchen Carlson.

Bolling was reacting to comments Waters had made in a speech Wednesday, in which she had called Republicans “demons.”

Fox News anchor Eric Bolling, whose reference to Whitney Houston and a crack pipe was later lamely clarified as “just kidding,” as I show in this video.
