My take on why Tucker gets so upset when a Republican gets outed
Edited on Wed Aug-29-07 05:19 PM by Roxy66
about hypocritical homosexual activity......maybe he is also gay. Just my opinion. Did you guys see the ridicule he recieved from Abrams and Scarborough yesterday? They were laughing in his face when he said he beat some kid up for picking up on him when he was in college.

1. Yep, I saw that! Tuck also had to toss in there that "I'm not gay"
statement!

3. OMG!!! That was so funny and transparent.....
It was almost embarrasing to watch...I was laughing so hard. Is it posted anywhere yet? I would love to watch that again..... Abrams and Scarborough were cracking up...

2. I don't know
He's kind of known as a bland, milquetoast family guy isn't he? I think that's why they give him a hard time. By the way, MediaBistro just reported that Tucker Carlson has issued a statement regarding what he said last night:

Let me be clear about an incident I referred to on MSNBC last night: In the mid-1980s, while I was a high school student, a man physically grabbed me in a men's room in Washington, DC. I yelled, pulled away from him and ran out of the room. Twenty-five minutes later, a friend of mine and I returned to the men's room. The man was still there, presumably waiting to do to someone else what he had done to me. My friend and I seized the man and held him until a security guard arrived.
Several bloggers have characterized this is a sort of gay bashing. That's absurd, and an insult to anybody who has fought back against an unsolicited sexual attack. I wasn't angry with the man because he was gay. I was angry because he assaulted me.

5. Thats not how he presented it last night.....
I would love to see the exchange again, because he did not call the guy a sexual predator or imply he was.....he seemed to imply it was a gay man picking up on him.

I just watched it again and - you're right - he could have said that last night and he didn't.

8. I do agree with his last statement about being leary of public bathrooms
.....I am also nervous about my 11 year old son using public bathrooms sometimes....but that has nothing to do with the Larry Craig situation. They are 2 separate issues. Gay activity--- and--- sexual predators.....oppisite sides of the spectrum

7. You suppose anyone is gonna run down that story, now that Tuck says there's a police report?
That's your homework, bloggers. Find the report of Tucker's molestation incident.

10. But scarborough had to use Clinton...
to make it not seem so bad he said " I am not trying to say anything bad about clinton" but he added that Clinton lies so lying works. He should know his president lies to the world everyday...

14. Tucker Carlson could not possibly be so interesting.
Edited on Wed Aug-29-07 06:07 PM by Marr
He's worse than a closeted hypocrite. He's just a bland political hack who behaves like a child. How old was he when he finally started wearing a big boy tie, again?

15. David Brock, in "Blinded by the Right", pointed out that, when he was
on TV appearances, he was encouraged to wear a bowtie.

I suspected that it was a Repuke code (like the word "urban" for Black) to announce to the Repukes in the know that he was gay ...
