Bob Beckel of "The Five" on Fox

How the hell is this guy still allowed on the air? Over the past few years, he has dropped two blatant f-bombs, called Italian-Americans Greaseballs, and has used the term "Chinamen" twice.
During the show's discussion of the twinkie union fiasco, Beckel asserted that "there are very few things that feel better than eating a twinkie, in fact there is only one thing that feels better than eating a twinkie".
He also has pissed off muslims often by attacking Islam and supporting a moratorium on allowing Muslim students into America.
He is an old school, New Deal Dem, but damn he is controversial.

That is his job. Nobody seriously takes him seriously.

Seeing people say what they want on TV without regard for political correctness...

Each race gets one fat guy that can say outrageous things.
We got Charles Barkley
Y'all got Bob Beckel
We are searching for the fat, outrageous Asian

He's a panty waste liberal the extreme righties can beat up on there. Just like Msnbc gets these weak right wingers to beat up on. Cut him some slack.

Because he's HONEST. Speaks his mind. Though Conservatives disagree, he's respected for that. Since it's in short supply nowadays.
And he's at the feet of Jesus. That will get him a lot of slack from his Fox audience.
Props to Bob!

Bob is your old dunk uncle. Albeit he's now sober, but it seems his neural pathways that where developed in Bob's brain as a drunkard remain in tact. Furthermore he's a Democrat and Democrats are held to very low standards. Thus, he's allowed to curse and be xenophobic.

Remember, he was Mondale's campaign manager. When you lose 49 states, you get messed up in the head.

I don't watch it, I sometimes listen to it on XM and Greg Gutfeld is the only reason I listen to that show.

Maybe Fox Five want a democrat that paints democrats negatively?

He and the cross eyed black guy who's name escapes me.

And he worked in the Carter administration. I also remember him getting pummeled by Bob Novak and Pat Buchanan on CNN's original Crossfire (I first got interested in politics in high school because of this show) on a regular basis. Bob doesn't have much of a winning track record.

I've always found that to be about the silliest word to be deemed a slur. I know there's a "history" behind it and all, it's still silly to me.
