Tucker Carlsen's New Site Kicks Off With Homophobic Smear Against Rachel Maddow

Posted by Jamison Foser, Media Matters for America at 4:30 PM on January 11, 2010.

The Daily Caller, launched today, features a column by The Weekly Standard's Matt Labash, who calls Maddow the "sexiest man alive."



Tucker Carlson's new web site, The Daily Caller, launched today, featuring a column by The Weekly Standard's Matt Labash:

For those unfamiliar with me from my day job at The Weekly Standard, I'll give you a capsule bio by way of introduction: I have the gift of wisdom. Does that sound arrogant? I'm sorry, that wasn't my intention. I didn't choose wisdom. It chose me. If I had my druthers, I'd have chosen another gift, perhaps the untold riches of Lil' Wayne, whose teeth are made of actual diamonds, or to be the sexiest man alive, like Rachel Maddow. But wisdom is what they gave me, so wisdom is all I have to give back to you.


Funny, isn't it? No? Well, maybe you just don't get it. 'Cause, see, Rachel Maddow is gay. And so, according to Matt Labash, she's really a man. Now do you get it? No? Neither do I.

Oh, and later, Labash calls stop lights with cameras attached to photograph cars that run red lights "Legalized rape."

Tucker sure knows how to pick 'em, doesn't he?

1. Typical republicon chickenhawk: no honor
No cred, nothing positive to contribute. Tucker is a true Republicon propagandist -- a Latter Day Pharisee.

11. that's true - I was
just following the tone of the "bow tie - nuff said" post.

No - I only wear one with a tux - and I think Tucker looks juvenile in his. But - I never thought Paul Simon looked particularly dignified in his either -even though it was a short 800 years ago (I would have sworn it wasn't that long ago).

10. I always thought that was because he was a George Will wannabe.
I know, that is pretty pathetic in and of itself, but there you have it.

...... She's smarter, wittier, more informed, a better analyst, more likeable and classier than they are, they know it, and they can't stand it.

16. They reek the odor of privilege and snobbery
So yes. I agree they are self worshipping, pathetic little men impressing only their own overblown egos and not many others.
