Can ANYBODY stand Tucker Carlson?
Edited on Thu Jul-12-07 05:49 PM by Gabi Hayes
I mean, I sit there watching that sneering, supercilious, loudmouthed, ignorant twit, and wonder how anyone, including those who agree with him, can stomach his nauseating persona.

I can't imagine watching him, even were he a progressive voice, as he's just about as hard to take as Hannity, perhaps harder, due to his constant, mostly inappropriate laughter. It reminds me of Bush, as if he thinks he's SO much smarter than everyone else; like he's the ONLY one in on his own private joke...the only one intelligent enough to grasp the cosmic significance of his insights, as he looks down from his throne, Ozymandias-like, laughing at those who struggle to achieve his enlightenment.

Seriously, are there any libertarian/conservatives/republicans who can stomach this weasel?

Does anybody deserved to be publicly humiliated more than he?

calling Jon Stewart......

A MAN's man:

10. OReilly's almost watchable, because he HAS to be crazy, or else he's
the best actor since Olivier (pick your favorite)

Tucker clearly thinks he's the swellest of the swells, the best of the best and brightest

I really feel sorry for his kids. can you imagine what they have to endure? and his wife....what on earth was SHE thinking? besides his daddy's $$$$$$$$$

hope she's happy with her life choice

13. exactly. I meant to say something along those lines. you know he
must've gotten the snot knocked out of him on a regular basis, or pink belly city, atomic wedgie, etc.

poor little kid, with his CIA daddy

OK. that's enough

time for some positive thinking

was training for the Golden Gloves this spring, my republican brother said it was too bad he couldn't spar Tucker. Even republicans find him annoying.

23. I saw the very end of that...did Tucker just cut him off at the point when the
guy said he was with National Review?

sorry I missed that, but I can't watch for more than a few moments. I get too angry

as the target

I doubt if I can find it, though

19. Much as I would love to evaluate him honestly,
Edited on Thu Jul-12-07 05:36 PM by PCIntern
I would probably be banished from DU, so I won't.

Suffice it to say that he is without question the smarmiest, most repulsive single individual who is not on Faux. what was almost worse was Joe S. this AM, blasting the guy on yesterday who went ballistic on Tucker and really let him have it including the fact that he switched from the bow tie.

i'd rather watch Coultergeist, honest to god. At least she is brazenly insane. this guy would have been beaten up every day in my school...and I went to a Friends' School! I can only imagine what would have happened to him in a conventional school.

They'd drag him away from the recess proctors an knock him down, beat his head against the ground, and push dirt up his nose. In my boarding school, they'd have put human excrement deep into his mattress and let him wonder where the odor was coming from, night after night.

Oops, did I say that...? Sorry!

didja see him trying to be tough against that guy yesterday, as reprised on Joe S this AM? I'd like five minutes with him face-to-face. I'd make Stewart look like Captain Kangaroo as far as he's concerned...

30. naaa. I saw about the last fifteen seconds, when he cut him off.
and I REFUSE to watch Intern Boy, along with his little lawn jockey. those two are just a notch less insufferable than TC.

when I wake up too early, the last thing I need is an instant spike in my BP.

28. WADR, I love Novak, at least in comparison to Tucker. I used to be able to watch
Edited on Thu Jul-12-07 05:45 PM by Gabi Hayes
Novak for at least several minutes without wanting to Elvis the TV.

I can't take more than a few seconds of TC without aneurizing.

Even when he was calling Karen Hughes insane, it was almost impossible to watch. he's just SO loathsome, so PREENING....

In fact, so many Reps are revolting that I don't understand how they're still breeding.

31. I would love to punch him in the face...
and I am a pretty easy going guy.

I can't stand his voice, I can't stand his face, I can't stand his smarmy, holier than thou attitude...

When he was wearing bow ties, I wanted to shove his bow tie up his...uhm...nose! Yeah, nose!

Phil Donahue could handle that spot. I like David Shuster, he would make one hell of an impact for MSNBC.

34. CIA/GE/Tucker's daddy connections? Extortion Pictures?
there is no reasonable explanation for his presence.

same as that of Glenn Beck.

is he their 'sop' to Faux viewers?
