WATCH: Tucker Carlson Takes Down MSNBC 'Morons' For Suggesting Gen. Kelly is Racist
Townhall.com ^ | October 21, 2017 | Timothy Meads

Tucker Carlson opened his nightly show Tucker Carlson Tonight yesterday with a fantastic take down of  the "morons" from MSNBC Lawrence O'Donnell and Joy Reid for suggesting that White House Chief of Staff General John Kelly is somehow racist for criticizing  Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-FL). 

Lawrence O'Donnell, who is an Irish Catholic from Boston himself, proclaimed that Gen. Kelly grew up in a segregated neighborhood where women were abused. 

“John Kelly never sat next to Frederica Wilson in his elementary school,” O'Donnell said. Adding "the language used in John Kelly's white neighborhood about black people was the exact same language used in the segregated south."

O'Donnell goes on to say that he grew up in an "identical neighborhood" and went to high school in Kelly's neighborhood. 

It is worth noting that as a wealthy son of a prominent attorney, that high school O'Donnell attended was the affluent Catholic private school, St. Sebastien's. 

"It was a neighborhood in which calling someone who looked like Frederica Wilson an ’empty barrel’ was the kindest thing someone said about her."

“I didn’t mind hearing John Kelly disagree with Congresswoman Wilson today,” O’Donnell said. “I understand the disagreement nature and some of it is deeply personal for him as a gold star father. But I was stunned, stunned when I watched him demonize her and very deliberately continue to dehumanize her and refuse to give her the dignity of a name and call her an empty barrel. he went out of his way to do it.”

Joy Reid, tweeted support for O'Donnell's sentiments and took it one step further, blaming not only Kelly's Irish upbringing but his Catholic faith as well.

Wow. @Lawrence scorched General Kelly tonight, including calling out his segregated Boston upbringing and dehumanization of a black woman.— Joy Reid (@JoyAnnReid) October 20, 2017

Wow wow wow. @lawrence noted that Gen. Kelly didn’t even give @RepWilson the dignity of using her name.— Joy Reid (@JoyAnnReid) October 20, 2017

Kelly grew up in segregated Boston, in an Irish Catholic neighborhood where women were bullied, not honored, and blacks scorned & rejected.— Joy Reid (@JoyAnnReid) October 20, 2017

.@Lawrence grew up in that same neighborhood. But clearly he grew to become something else.— Joy Reid (@JoyAnnReid) October 20, 2017

Tucker responded last night to these statements:

 Unbelievable. MSNBC’s Joy Reid never one for subtlety went even farther than that. She attacked General Kelly’s entire childhood as racist. Quote, “Kelly grew up in segregated Boston,” she tweeted, “in an Irish Catholic neighborhood where women were bullied not honored and blacks scorn and rejected.” Because really, there is nothing like using growth ethnic stereotypes when you’re fighting for racial justice as she says she is.

According to Joy Reid, the problem isn’t just General Kelly. It is the Irish, they’re the problem. This is grotesque, obviously. The morons making these arguments are sick. It’s the centrum of disease to imagine racism behind every disagreement. This also by the way the death of traditional political debate. You can argue with people who disagree with you who are just wrong, but there is no reasoning with bigots, you can only crush them. Your opponents suddenly become your enemies. They must be destroyed. And that by the way is how many on the left now see General Kelly not to mention you and me.

Watch the full clip below starting at 0:00.

We’re on a vacation so I’ve been away from the repetitive drumming for over a week.....
...but just yesterday I caught a sequence with Jessica Tarliff as the agitator to proTrump Corey Lewandosky on Jesse Watters show and realized even more we are being so played.

Jessica got her air time to say vile, hateful accusations against President Trump and John Kelly
They know she’s going to do this ....it’s a given as pigs eat slop...
...and I don’t need her opinion anymore than I need a bad toothache

Fair and balanced does not work when only a handful are fair and remainder are imbalanced!

Maybe it’s time to start talking about the real reason that people are racist. That’s the elephant in the room.

Everything is about race with the left because they have nothing else. It’s like arguing with a broken record.

I never took a course in the psychology of mental disorders, but by watching democrats I’m getting that education. There is not one bit of reason in their minds. They have lost all ability to reason. Their self-loathing has led them to say insane things.

that is exactly how Obama was able to reign for eight years of fervent socialist takeover. Anyone who was opposed was labeled a “racist” and immediately backed off. It was an intentional plan to diminish all opposition. And it worked.

The smugness of O’Donnell was nauseating. I never see these people but for these clips. This reminded me why. These othere would do well to heed the fable of the “Boy Who Cried Wolf” and knock off this racism nonsense, lest we (further) cease to care. You might then see genuine racism, which I dare say is unfamiliar to you.

?>? Jessica Tarliff ?>?

Why is Tarliff on FOX News except for to b!tch & moan progressive liberal nasty trash. She ruins their show spewing garbage ad nauseam.

Her VOICE IS SO “””ABRASIVE & ANNOYING!””””
It’s like a cross between a nasal crow & squawking parrot.
She has a terrible raspy broken down voice of an old woman dying from lung cancer.

And she’s not pretty, cute, sexy, or clever. She has no redeeming value.

I guess they want a snarky snide ugly little twit on their show.

“You are so right about that woman”

For the record the last name is Tarlov. Sounds like a Bolshevik last name, figures.

‘Racist’ is about the only label left in the left’s vocabulary, and they never tire of using it.

I think a truce should be called on the “racist” meme.

In all honesty, there will always be some racists, on many sides. Let’s just agree that it’s wrong and accept the fact that it will never be eliminated, then drop it as a weapon. As long a people don’t commit crimes, then they’re allowed to think what they want.

In the interest of brevity, the bigots should just call all of us Totalphobes.

Calling “Racist” is the last refuge of the intellectually challenged. When they have nothing else, when the pail full of bullshit is finally empty and none of it has stuck to the wall, when the pea sized brain is frozen out of all logic and reason...holler RACIST. That will stop them...every time. PATHETIC.

Tamara Holder is another "progressive" former contributor who used to be on Fox News. Hannity used to have fun with her and rightly ridicule her because she always seemed to wear a chip on her shoulder.
