Can Tucker Carlson possibly be as morally obtuse as
he portrays himself? He loudly proclaims himself as against the Iraq War, but sees no way to end it. He remains baffled as to why the Plame outing was worthy of any coverage whatsoever. Now he wonders aloud as to why anyone would be concerned about the purge of US Attorneys and what the firings say about the RW assault on the rule of law and the electoral process.
Tucker is either as dumb as dirt or but one more example of the Faustian bargains that loyal Bushies have to make in order to stand by their hero.
In Iraq, we don't know who are enemies are. In Bushco America, we don't know what our democratic heritage demands.

1. He also claims to NOT be a Republican
However, he practically SPITS the word Democrat when forced to say it.
IMHO he is vying for Rush's notoriety in his crusade against Hillary.

2. Tucker's dad headed the Libby Defense Fund.
He's just a deceitful liar who gives a good TV delivery.

3. Tucker is a republicon crony propagandist
So the answer to your question is YES. Of course he is morally obtuse. Republicons prove over and over and over that they are LACKING IN HONOR.

4. Tucker is a sad
Little rich boy that never had to grow up, and now he wants to remain in that little delusional world he created as a child.

6. He's the finest example of Affirmative Action for conservative pundits
Is there a network where this guy hasn't garnered low ratings?

8. It's disgusting how Tucker constantly picks on Hillary. Every night
he has a derogatory comment to make about her. I haven't heard him say a negative thing about a R. candidate...yet he has the lying nerve to say he is an independent. He's nothing but a paid shill for the GOP!

11. What's really funny
is how he reacted when she made a surprise appearance on Crossfire, to bring him a shoe-shaped cake.

He acted like a little boy. He blushed and practically rolled over on his back and wet himself. But when she's not in the room, he's a big tough guy.

12. Ah! I forgot about that. That's probably why he obviously has it in for her. nt

14. That's Hillary for you.
Out there, putting the fear of God into insecure right wing men such as Tucker.

9. A TV judge's catchphase applies "You are either the dumbest person ever born or a bold faced liar"
Personally I opt for number two -- none of these Bush apologist are stupid enough to actually believe the nonsense they are pedaling

(catchphrase from Judge Marilyn Milian, The People's Court)

10. Look at his eyes. There is no kindness or empathy in them.
The man is a sociopath, just like his Bushie role models.
