Tucker Carlson responds to RNC complaints about DC’s Michael Steele article
By Tucker Carlson - The Daily Caller 03/29/10 at 2:30 PM


The complaints from the RNC about this morning’s Daily Caller article, “High Flyer: RNC Chairman Steele suggested buying private jet with RNC funds,” while loud, lack substance. Despite claims to the contrary, no one from the committee has ever explained the specific circumstances of any of the expenses listed in its most recent disclosure filings.

Our questions remain: Why did the committee spend more than $17,000 on private jets in the month of February? How and why was RNC business conducted in a bondage-themed nightclub, and how and why were the nearly $2,000 in charges that resulted approved by RNC staff?

To be clear: We did not claim that Michael Steele personally visited Voyeur West Hollywood. In fact, and unfortunately, we still know almost nothing about that trip, including its purpose. If the RNC provides details, we’ll put them on the site immediately.

The Daily Caller requested interviews with Michael Steele on Jan. 14, Jan. 15, Jan. 18, Feb. 10, Feb. 23 and again on March 23. All were denied.

The story we ran today is accurate, as the RNC knows.

1. I remain entertained.

2. Steele? Meet the underside of the bus nt

3. Obviously, Tucker wants Steele out.

He's upping the ante. I think all that remains is at what price Steele departs. Should be a good pay day for Mike. They can't fire him without Steele creating a 3 Ring Circus - he'd file a huge charge claiming discrimination...probably has lots of evidence tucked away just for this occasion.

4. I think he wants Steele's job...

...or maybe just the expense account.

5. He wants Steele's job, He wants to get back on television.

7. Tucker claims he is not a repug, but a Libertarian.

The only reason I tolerate the little creep just a tad is because Rachel Maddow once said that Carlson insisted MSNBC give her air time during his old show thus eventually resulting in her own show and Tucker's demise.

6. Spare me your brand of journalistic integrity, Tucker

You covered the Scooter Libby trial without so much as making a peep about your father heading up his defense fund!
