Tucker Carlson Ditches Bow-Tie For Good

MSNBC ^ | 4/11/06

If you saw Tucker Carlson in London after the "Tube Bombings," he went toe-to-toe with the head of a British Islamic group. I was surprised. He also comes off very well on immigration. I don't think he's as much of a RINO as you paint him to be.

His biggest problem is he needs to do this regularly and stop being wimpy. He needs to drop the debating society mentality and either drop the dyke or tear her a new rear. He needs to change his image. Ditching the bow tie is a good start.

Gosh!

For a moment there I thought he was giving up his bow ties for a burkah.

I never realized that without the bow tie, Tucker looks just like Superman, could it be????? nah....

I guess it's a matter of degree but it seems to me that if TC were in a red state, he would tend more toward purple. For example, he would not be a bit out of place at an Austin, Texas social gathering of the Ma Richards Garden Club and Gin Sampling Society.

OTOH, if he took that bowtie and used it to strangle Chris Matthews and/or Keith Olbermann on the air, I might even watch for a night.

He'll still be a sparrowfart.

It is all in the wording, honey!!!!

I am a very straight woman!

And I know handsome when I see it.

[Huck]

What's wrong with the word penis? Isn't that the correct term? And don't call me honey, dear.

You are right. He's not a bad guy. And he doesn't back down. I would much rather see him than Joe Scarborough who has lost his mind or Alan Keyes who lost his soul on MSNBC. But mostly, Tucker would be better as a social commentator than a political analyst since the infighting isn't his strongest suit. He would still be a cool guy to hang out with.

[Brandie]

He doesn't sound like a conservative, at least in the last month now that I have heard him on TV. He does as much harm for our side as a dem would, in the things I have heard him say.

Thanks for telling me though.

No bow? what about the flippy hairdo? He needs to change his hair too. Did you know he's from the Swanson Foods family?

More trivia: Anderson Cooper's mom is Gloria Vanderbilt.

I'd usually agree, but I've been watching him tonight. Tucker interviewed Jesse Jackson about the Duke case, and let me tell you, he kicked Jackson's a$$ all over the screen.

He told Jesse the only reason (Jesse) cared about the case is because the accusing victim is black and the supposed criminals are white. Tucker used the Tawana Baloney name to Jackson's face, and Jesse nearly came unglued.

Jackson's comeback was to tell Tucker if the races were reversed he might be wearing the bow-tie again. Tucker jumped right back into Jackson's ugly face telling him that sounds like another race accusation. Tucker told Jackson that he (Tucker) doesn't run around determining his life by building up race issues.

I'm telling you, it was quite the contentious interview. Something tells me Jacskon will never be on the Tucker Carlson show again.
