did anybody catch tucker tonight. he had on a lady that was
advocating for women to be near the front. every time tucker objected to women being involved in the fighting. she would counter with "well you will have to join the army"

tucker never once said that he was open to joining the army, he even said at the end of the interview that he was going to stay here and fight to keep women off the front line.

uh, someone should check the transript on this one.

funny stuff.

1. Of all the conservatives on television, he's definately the funniest IMHO.
I actually like that show.

2. I actually have been watching it too. At least it shows BOTH sides.
I have no problems hearing Republican or RW people, but I hate when they are the only side presented. Show both sides and I'll watch.

7. And as far as republicans go, he's not the most RW of the bunch.

4. Not to overly defend him, but he has always expressed disapproval
for Bush's war.

That said, he still touts the republican agenda.

But in a less shrill way.

5. I thought that was so funny
She made him look like a driveling idiot.

That said - I think this show is really bad.

11. I think her name is Allison Stewart - she does daytime news on MSNBC &
subs for Olbermann alot. She does good snark & isn't afraid to not look too cool like the rest of the network 'non'blondes'! I suspect after some seasoning she will be leap years ahead of the rest of them, she seems to want it more.

6. I've never seen the show,
but as long as both sides are evenly covered and heard I'm fine with it.

Speaking of Tucker Carlson... anyone else miss Crossfire?

8. I know I'm in the minority on this
But I actually liked Crossfire. Mainly because it was a rare show that had actual spirited criticism of Mr. Bananas. I know the show could get silly sometimes, but I loved it when Carville would go into rant mode and sometimes spout a profanity. And despite prevailing opinion here, although I thought Jon Stewart, in his infamous appearance made a valid point, he came across as pompous. And I love the Daily Show.

10. Oh man...
I have seen some doozies, man, if this tiny/skinny/weak man is out there defending my country, damn, our country is in some trouble...:) But he should join, doens't take much strength/stamina to pull a trigger, but like most RW he will come up with the lamest excuses of why NOT to go. Ha, i think the main reason why he is against women on the front lines is because, maybe he is a woman, and he is going to use that card, when the draft starts...
