Tucker just mentioned Kucinich/Sharpton ticket-said they tell the truth...

[Desertrose]

and that *&^#@ Begala said they have the most interesting HAIR of any Dem candidate!
:wtf:

Thanks for defending the Dems Paul...Tucker was actually giving them a compliment how DK & AS tell the truth and Begala makes that totally insipid comment just now on Crossfire.
I wanna screammmmmmmmmmmm!!:grr:

1. Tucker just admitted he voted for Sharpton.

[Desertrose]

2. think he really did...

somehow I have a hard time picturing that.....

3. Well Begala is a DLC puke- what do you expect?

Tucker saying DK & Sharpton tell the truth shows you EXACTLY why the DLC fears them. Their truths compared to Bush's lies would carry either one of the to the White House and THAT would be the DLC's biggest nightmare- Progressives on the loose.

6. What she said.

:)

[corporatewhore]

7. what tinoire said

[Mairead]

13. and another "what she said" :-)

[mmonk]

17. he he

like that take.

[Tinoire]

27. Lol! You guys are funny. THANKS

You make me feel like laughing- lol!

[rucky]

4. The only thing I regret about getting rid of my television...

is that I didn't take a sledgehammer to it, instead of selling it.

[randr]

5. Tucker is a mental masturbationist

on his way to irrelevancy.

[justinpower]

9. I dont know

i have only watched crossfire a handfull of times. Tucker, while I dont agree with him, seems fairly genuine to me. That could just be because he is sitting next to Novak though now that I think about it.

[Padraig18]

8. Tucker was making fun of them!

Any 'compliment' he paid either AS or DK was in the viewer's mind only. He was RIDICULING THEM! :eyes:

[redqueen]

10. By saying they tell the truth?

You really think that?

[Padraig18]

11. He's ridiculed them MERCILESSLY!

I watched the whole thing. The real reason Tucker says he supports AS is because he believes the Republicans would SLAUGHTER us at the polls; same goes for DK. Trust me, his 'compliment' was tongue-in-cheek, or did you not hear the '...because neither one has anything to lose by doing so...' part of the comment? :eyes:

[ShimokitaJer]

12. He only said they tell the truth

so that he could use it as a negative comparison for the other candidates who, in his estimation, don't tell the truth. If Sharpton or Kucinich had a chance at the nomination, he'd be attacking them just as fervently.

And of course, Begala has to take the opposite tack, since he's all for the DLC power brokers. This is what passes for balanced reporting in this sick day and age.

[redqueen]

15. Got it

Thanks Padraig18, ShimokitaJer, and salinen for the explanations.

I wasn't watching so no, I didn't get the context.

And yes, ShimokitaJer, this is why I hate that show, and any other political show on television. There is NO balanced reporting or debate anymore. It's all meant to push an agenda, and it's not the people's agenda, either.

[Padraig18]

18. I'm sorry he does that.

And I'm absolutely FURIOUS that Begala won't defend them. *sigh* :hi:

[redqueen]

20. Well, we have Begala's number, though, don't we?

(See Tinoire's post above)

*sigh*

:hi:

[MuseRider]

21. Thanks Padraig

you are a good guy and I have missed you around here the last few weeks. I appreciate your anger.

[Padraig18]

24. Thanks!

My new class schedule makes my time a bit erratic, because I have 2 lab classes this semester. UGH! :P

[Desertrose]

29. Yeah..thats what really got me ...Begala...not surprised...just

pissed...
I expect Tuckers crap...and Begala's too...just the one two punch just plain pissed me off today.....

CNN...definitely not good a good place to go for a liberals BP
:evilgrin:

"nothing to lose" my ass, Tucker you weasel...and you Paul...you're just jealous that they HAVE hair !!
Bwa ha ha haaaaaaa

[charlie]

19. Ah, okay

I'm weirdly reassured by that. Tucker's still a reptile. Good. As you can see by my post below, I was creeping out.

[redqueen]

22. lol

No, we're not in bizarro world. :)

[charlie]

23. Gone too long without expecting good news, I guess

I don't know how to handle an embarassment of riches :)

[salinen]

14. Pad's right

This is Fuckers way of ridiculing them. So he is able, by reduction, to say all others dem noms are liars.

[tobius]

25. yup

Begala was a little slow on his feet.

26. Same way women are dismissed....

ignore any intellectual contribution, and concentrate on appearances.

Interesting development.

Kucinich 2004!

[tobius]

28. may be interesting,

but definately not new. BTW there was a thread here for awhile complaining about DKs pic on CNN. appearances count , not gonna change.

16. What in the farkin' hell is going on?

Tucker is making nice with the two most rightwing-antimatter candidates we've got. Andy Sullivan is venting his disgust with Bush out loud. Bush is proudly disseminating documented proof of his vacuous boobery to his nervous sycophants. And I heard O'Reilly made his long-promised apology for being wrong about Saddam's WMD... this is bizarre.

Did all the conservatives go to bed last night and have a dream telling them to get right with Jesus NOW? :crazy:

[pretzel4gore]

is that tucker carlson?

or is this someone us 'won't watch the liars anymore' never heard about? there are 16 replies and no mention if it's the punk carlson
(whose daddy was a nixon era repuke ambassador fyi)
or a brand new bush whore
