Tucker Carlson: "Actually, I DO think that they on the left HATE AMERICA..."
He just said it on MSNBC. They're talking about Seymour Hirsch and the things he's revealed and it all comes down to this, I guess: Little Tucker "Dancing With The Stars" Carlson thinks that you're FOR Bush or AGAINST Bush.

He started talking about "left wing fringe bloggers" and I left the room. He needs some cheese to go along with today's whine...

:evilgrin:

3. WaaaWaaa thinks you are either FOR BUSH or ANTI-AMERICAN.
He reminds me of the possum Katherine Harris was holding.

OH, and BTW, I expect an apology from MSNBC.

5. Nope, but I do hate little fascist-asslicker fuckballs like him.
He looks young enough to enlist--so why the fuck doesn't he?

Sit here and take this. FUCK THAT! (I did this as a chubby kid growing up).

I have heard folks like Bush, Cheney, Snow, and Boehner "aka Boner" talk all of their shit and I'm just about ready to go just ape.

JEBUS, ALL OF YOU RIGHTIES JUST STFU. Your name calling and excuses is absolutely bullshit, PERIOD!


SHOVE IT UP YOUR ASS! (I'm looking forward to assisting on this November 7......By voting democrat down the line!)

12. Just call me a glutton for punishment...
...even though I know "the news" is not "the news," I can't get by with just one hour a day of K.O...so I tend to have MSNBC on as "background noise."

...but the GOOD news is that I haven't turned on Fox News since two nights before the 2004 election. I'm guessing Hannity took a few victory laps when Junior stole his second term. I don't know...I wasn't watching.

:evilgrin:

16. Stay away from Fox News! It's a health hazard.
I just couldn't stand to hear 24/7 that east is west, up is down. We viewers know when we're being lied to.


There are exceptions, of course...

9. Apparently that bow tie has been too tight for years
cutting off the blood supply to his already vestigial brain.

I wonder what they think they're going to get out of lying about the majority of people to the majority of people in this country. They're not making friends, they're not building credibility and they're not increasing their ratings.

Turn em off, already. Deny their sponsors another warm body. That's the best way to fight them.

13. Actually I do think those who still support this cabal must hate America
for they must love what part of America, this Republic, its Constitution, its good name that has systematically and perniciously been mockingly destroyed with smirks on their faces. :puke:

17. I shall fry up a fresh batch of fresh of embryos and then after my Black Mass,
marry my dog, then go to the big NAMBLA rally at the church that was just closed down and then...

:evilgrin: :sarcasm: :evilgrin:

Actually, I shall probably watch the returns that evening, sleep very soundly and pray the Te Deum Laudamus and then Wednesday morning read The Guardian and Independent and listen to Amy Goodman and get ready to start the preps for 08.

15. My two cents on Dems hating America...
and blaming it for all the worlds ills...

The promise of america is embedded within the eternal concepts of the republic lay down in the Constitution and abided to, with varying levels of success, throughout most of our history. If looked at objectively, that promise, and the success of the founding fathers' initial mission, is fading.

First, let's talk history here. The country from the outset was a melting pot of castaways, bonded powerfully by a single commanility in that most of its residents were fleeing religious (and economic) persecution. Emphasis on individual rights was a hallmark of that initial vision. As was a right to privacy, due process, etc. Let's be honest -- there were some flaws along the way -- slavery foremost among them. Yer our 230 year history has always been marked by progress and self improvement. Lincoln did end slavery, separate but equal was repudiated, and woman got to vote. These were mighty and just advances of which we can all be proud. Even as a society entrepreneurs and capitalists, we did start taking care of our sick and elderly, and our environment. Both parties, it seemed, moved us forward. Hell, Nixon started the EPA. Lincoln signed the emancipations proclamation. Kennedy got us to the moon. America was mighty enough to determine the outcome of two world wars. Yet it was powerful, wise and graciousness enough to rebuild its biggest adversaries from those conflicts.

Where has that America gone?

Today, despite history, some in our country would identify the flag with a single god. We live in a world where our written thoughts, habits, and phone calls can be monitored with no warrant, no cause. We are pulling back on Medicare and Medicaid, and selling our habitat to the highest bidders. We have proudly become a society of uber capitalists and believers in american ingenuity, yet we educate our children poorly amd unequally....Some of our leaders would even have us teach intelligent design...in biology class. Where once the was the Marshall Plan (and its execution) we now have Katrina. And, of course, there is seminal issue of the Iraq war. To see the country you love start an unnecessary war in the name of concepts espoused by the founding fathers (freedom) and based on lies couched as certainties is the ultimate perversion. To see young americans and iraqis of all ages dying is devestating. To watch another generation -- here and abroad -- exposed to the hatred and violence of war and to feel its numbing impact to those society's value of human life, well, that is just heart breaking.

All of these things are happening in and to America. I love and am proud of my country's history, but I must say that I am beyond concerned about where things are today. It's clear to any objective viewer that we, as a country, have lost our way these last six years under the President's leadership. America the concept is still strong, but American society today is not, and the country is no longer self-correcting. Something in the system has changed. It is no longer balanced as intende. We could talk for hours about what or who is responsible for this -- but the net effect is that this country no longer strives for a unifying ideal (besides $ and fame). We are no longer progressive in the purest sense. And that is what I hate. And I blame George Bush, and the narrow agendas of the coalition that got him elected. twice.

19. If I truly hated America, I'd vote Republican...
I'm not being facetious, at all. I can't think of a more feasible, effective manner of doing serious, long-term harm to America than supporting Republican control of our government. But I doubt Tucker and like-minded wingers would take me seriously. It's one thing that they absolutely fail to understand about many of us. They truly think we want to see America destroyed, because they need to believe that the motivations of their political opponents are evil.

21. Well, he's almost correct:: I hate what his party has turned America
into - a near-facist state where we have no freedoms, no habeas corpus, where we have to "watch what we say," where hypocrisy isn't recognized by enough people, where the news media lies, spins and distorts to keep the public in the dark and where corporations rule the roost.

So, in that sense, I hate America - the right-wingers' America.

23. Just don't watch....
I only watch Bow-tie boy when Stephanie Miller is on, then I turn it off. I don't know what his ratings are, but they have to be lower than KO's and Tweety's. The best way to knock him off his petard is to NOT watch. And let MSNBC know it.
