1. What really ticks me off about these guys
Tucker, et al. Is they never let a guest finish their statements. It is all about "my opinion" and just yelling over them. I understand disagreeing with someone or pointing out a possible flaw in their argument, but it's just mostly about yelling.

3. Tucker is such a DC legacy twit
IT is like a community service that they keep him employed.

The point about the Clinton nonsense should have been made much earlier because Tucker (and the entire DC establisment) seems to have completely forgotten about the "papers" they sold with that one.

2. I saw this yesterday...
...as it happened and thought it was really a beautiful thing. Rectenwald eviscerated Carlson. Poor widdle Tucker looked like he needed oxygen by the end of the clip. I almost had to have a cigarette when it concluded!

5. "Chumming"

Chumming - is a popular and effective method for drawing and clustering fish (Guests or Dems), into an area so they can be fished with a baited hook or lure, and to promote active feeding (discussion), once they arrive. It entails placing various forms of food (Bull shit), and other substances (misleading statements), in the water to attract fish (Guests or Dems),to a specific area (On their heals explaining misstatements), and keep them there for extended periods. Because finding and enticing fish (Guests or Dems), is a prerequisite to successful fishing (Riling the Guests or Dems), chumming is a method that has been used for more than 500 years and one that is still used widely today (By the Rethuglicans and Gnome Talking Heads).

Tucker the Fuckers ratings suck so this is what he and other media Gnomes practice to give the "illusion" of serious and engaged discussion.

6. That was nothing short of awesome
This is how you have to handle these guys.

Wow, the amount of hypocrisy in Carlson, actually defending someone's "private" sex life after being a republican tool for ten years of Clinton's life, where he actually had private sex, not the public kind you pay for. I have no proper words to express the absolute gall of the man.

He really has become worse since he went to MSNBC, as he has no one to countervail his complete partisanship.

We need more liberal anger like this. They taunt us for being mad, after years of red-faced republican commentary on the 1500 clear-channel, and many television shows???

7. It appears Tucker Carlson is after Bill O'Reilly job at FAUX
MSNBC should fire him immediately and put a worth while competent man in his place, a man such as Phil Donahue.

9. That would be fine also! But who'd fill Schuster shoes as News Analyst?
MSNBC sure couldn't use Carlson Tucker as a news analyst, could they?

Dan Abrams can take his wrestlers and his crime show to 11:00pm. BTW I understand Mr. Abrams is the General Manager of MSNBC????? I hope I misunderstood!

David Shuster is my favorite.

16. Meet the faces of MSNBC- Dan Abrams
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3080410/

MSNBC General Manager & NBC News Chief Legal Correspondent

Dan Abrams is the General Manager of MSNBC and the Chief Legal Correspondent for NBC News.

Abrams began his career at NBC Sports in 1988 at the Seoul Olympics and Wimbledon. His primary duties included making coffee runs, icing sodas, and keeping certain anchor positions dust-free.

:bounce::rofl: That's pretty funny. He seems to have a sense of humor about himself.

What any of the "news" networks are missing is a 10PM calm somber review-of-the-day show. Like Aaron Brown had on CNN. After the shoutfests and for those of us whose families go to bed about that time it would be a great end of the day kind of show before Daily Show and late night comes on. Just my opinion but what do I know I've only been watching TV my whole life.

10. Dear God. Tucker can't be that clueless
Unbelievable. How embarrassing that "journalism" has sunk this far.

11. My God, Does Carlson actually believe what he is saying?
Is he really that dense that he cannot understand that there are consequences for actions, especially actions unapproved by the majority of Americans. If you are a public figure and you go to a hooker, you are going to catch something....you will either catch a disease or you will catch hell from the public.

Since when does it take a rocket scientist to figure that out?:nopity:

17. Tucker knows exactly what he's saying and doing...
and all the while betrays the country while he's doing it.

12. He should have pointed out to Tucker that since he wasn't running for office
and proclaiming a platform of family values, he didn't need to reveal anything to Carlson or anyone else about his private or sex life! This creep Vitter ran and was elected on this family values platform and has been exposed as a hypocrite!....That's ALL that's pertinent!

18. OH. MY. GOD! Could Tucker be more unprofessional, rude, condescending, openly biased,
hypocritical, and delusional??? I don't think so!!! He kept trying to divert the discussion, kept throwing accusations at his guest as though HE were the one who committed a crime. What an ass. I swear the hypocrisy of the right-wing knows no bounds. These people will come up with the most backwards and mind-boggling justifications and excuses for what they do and ALWAYS deflect the blame onto someone else.

UNBELIEVABLE.

20. I think it is a ploy. Tucker is actually trying to bury Giuliani
Look at his entire segment from yesterday.

He got the firefighter guy on to talk about bad things Giuliani did after 9/11.
He got the guy in this video to talk about sexual adventures of Giuliani campaign chairman
He got Ron Paul (Giuliani arch enemy ;-) to talk about his own campaign.

I think Tucker is working undercover to tank Giuliani campaign and boost Ron Paul a little.
