Tucker is a smarmy desperate little twit
In case you didn't know that. Right now he's interviewing the moveon guy. He only wants to talk about abortion. He actually had to resort to the old chestnut of the Dems not letting some guy talk about abortion at the convention, what, fifteen years ago?!

Yeah, Tucker, THAT'S what viewers want to talk about. He's so relevant, isn't he?:dunce: :thumbsdown: :shrug: :puke: x(

14. And george cannot hide his disdain for the American people. That is shameful!
I think this election shows how much disdain the American populace has for the corporate owned media whores. Too bad they haven't caught on yet. I heard that Timmy will have McCain and Lieberman on his show this weekend. :puke: :eyes:

4. Yes & that's not even true
Tweety 'fessed up on Election Night when Dean confronted him about it. It's true that Casey was not allowed to speak at the '96 Convention, but not because of abortion---it's because he refused to endorse the Presidential candidate on the Democratic ticket!

7. I can't figure out why he is on the air. Is he related to some big brass or something?
Maybe married the boss's daughter - got to be something - because he is really, really bad as a broadcaster - both his delivery and his knowledge of events.

10. His dad is a fundraiser for Scooter Libby's trial.

Son's a slick hack for the Republican Party. He'll be focusing on every weakness and misstep that Democrats make as long as he's on the air.

15. family connections, not journalistic integrity
His father was a big-time diplomat, I believe an ambassador.

Tucker probably sat on Jack Welch's lap at some point.

8. That old story isn't even true
-according to the convention organizers, anyway. The thing is Casey hadn't *endorsed* the candidate! Why would anyone have any business speaking at the nat'l party convention if they hadn't endorsed the party's nominee? It's an absurd claim. Something that adds weight to contradicting the story is that there WERE some speakers who were anti-choice -but they, OF COURSE, had endorsed Clinton.

12. The thing I hate about Tucker most is that I like to wear bow ties.
He gives them a bad name.

Unfortuately, his manner has not improved to match.

19. Oh good! I don't have a TV now so thanks for the info.
I'm sure with or without the bow tie he is still the same right
wing daddy's boy toady twerp.

When I see the people that speak for the republican party
it still amazes me that they can hypnotize the blue collars
into their fold.

16. And notice his cold eyes
Edited on Fri Nov-10-06 07:56 PM by rhiannon55
You know how you can tell if people are good-natured and caring by their eyes? They kind of "smile" in a twinkly way. Not Tucker's. Even when his mouth's smiling, his eyes aren't. His eyes tell me he has no empathy, which means he's very likely a (yet another!) sociopath, willing to say or do anything to help his right-wing masters stay on top. This behavior helps him financially, too, so to him, the ends justify the means. :evilgrin:

Edited because I was an English major and can't leave anything alone... :)

17. Good observation - I am sometimes amazed by how I have
such a visceral hatred of both Tucker and W, and I think that is why. Just by looking at them, you can tell that they are cold, selfish, hateful and without an ounce of empathy in their dark, black souls.

Tucker also looks like he's been sucking on the bottle lately. He's very bloated in the way that alcoholics get (Almost every guy I went to college with looked like him - except the ones who didn't drink) and he's got that flush across the bridge of the nose and cheeks.

18. Yes I've noticed that too
His face HAS looked bloated for the past few days. I thought he was just gaining weight, but who knows. It's very noticeable. Poor Tucker, constant spinning and shilling isn't good for the mind of body it would seem.

22. But he does have pretty, pretty hair. Looked better with the bowtie, though.
Just so everyone gets it, I despise TC. Twit is too good for him, IMHO.

24. Tucker is a total tool!
I loved it when Jon Stewart called him a "dick." He probably took it as a complement.
