ha!! Tucker on with Rachel confessing his sins

[CatWoman]

:D

[NYCGirl]

1. Tucker has enough good taste to appreciate Rachel Maddow...

I give him props for that!

[maddezmom]

2. well

anything good? :D

[CatWoman]

4. talking about his regret for backing the war

and the day he realized that the war was a bad idea.

[maddezmom]

11. wow, having Rachelon has been good for Tucker

thanks for the update...don't get much US news here. :hi:

[Terran]

18. I wish I could hear that...

I'm really curious how someone with a conservative mindset explains what it took for them to understand something that we all understood months before the invasion even happened. In Tucker's case, I can't believe it's actual stupidity in play, because he seems "smart" enough. So what is it? Can ideology really blind people to that extent? Party loyalty? What?

[CatWoman]

28. Dirk, the show is archived

at www.airamericaplace.com, and also at www.whiterosesociety.org

:hi:

:loveya:

[Terran]

40. Oh, thanks!

Duh, I should have known.

[gkhouston]

35. Doesn't seem that "smart" to me

and he's intellectually lazy as well; doesn't seem to want to employ the critical thinking skills he does possess. To me, he's always come across as someone who likes to play at being clever but whose knowledge of any given subject is actually pretty superficial.

[blm]

36. For Tucker it's always been party loyalty. He's not antigay, it's doubtful

that he's even antichoice, and he didn't like Bush during the GOP primaries.

He was never a fan of the war but he promoted the war out of his partisanship.

He didn't even bother to vote last election because he thought it was all over for Bush, anyway, so he wasn't going to go out of his way to vote for him.

I bet other GOPers felt like that, too, and it makes me all the more certain that BushInc PADDED their vote totals and switched Kerry votes to Bush in the programming of the machines.

[FreedomAngel82]

26. Wow, seriously???

Tucker?

[flakey_foont]

3. update, please

for the media deprived

[CatWoman]

6. he's still holding on to the belief that Bush didn't lie

baby steps, Tucker.

baby steps.

though he admits Bush is incompetent.

[flakey_foont]

9. Thanks

[FreedomAngel82]

31. I agree

Baby steps. Maybe Rachel is getting to him. He should see the statements from Tim Goodrich and Hart Vigel about bombing Iraq pre-war with the British troops. Maybe by the end of the year he'll be totally against Bush.

[NYCGirl]

5. Tucker's explaining his opposition to the Iraq war and pointing out he's

a "cloth-coat" conservative (not a neocon).

[LisaM]

7. Tucker didn't vote for Bush last time!!!!

He just admitted it....

[maddezmom]

13. did he say who he voted for?

or did he just abstain?

[NYCGirl]

14. Nope, didn't say. NT

[FreedomAngel82]

34. Wow, now that's big

I got a bit more respect for Tucker after that admittance. Hopefully it's true. Tucker has always been the only one I could stomachly stand.

[NYCGirl]

8. He says Bush is "arrogant." NT

[CatWoman]

10. BAM!!

[NYCGirl]

12. Bush is a "decent, but semi-competent person who overestimates

himself", according to Carlson.

[Maccagirl]

15. Bush is not decent, Tucker

He tries (and usually succeeds) to destroy anyone who doesn't ascribe to his belief system.

[demnan]

16. How long do you think he's going to have a show?

after this?

[CatWoman]

17. Rachel just called Tucker a jerk for his asshole comments about Cindy

and she's gonna take him to the woodshed after the commercial break.

[sundog]

19. trying to backpedal to save his sorry ass

too late mother fucker :D

[Cleita]

20. She's slapping him down again. "Don't call Cindy Sheehan

a crazy. I'm taking you on after the commercial." LOL.

I wonder if his ass is red every night when he goes home after the spankings Rachel regularly gives him.

[CatWoman]

22. Tucker is so damn stupid

he's still trying to put words in her mouth.

[Cleita]

25. She's making him justify what stupid things he said.

"You didn't read around the ellipses, Tucker."
"No, I didn't." *giggle, giggle*

Gotcha!

[NYCGirl]

21. OK, they're back from commercial. NT

[proud patriot]

23. I'm listening too

Tucker likes Rachel and Vice versa

[CatWoman]

24. so now I'm "anti-American"

:eye:

fuck you Tucker.

[MidwestTransplant]

27. Tucker was the one who heard * mock Carla Faye Tucker

before her execution.

[K-W]

29. "I'm a liberitarian" "I'm a traditional conservative"

Make up your mind you pandering jerk.

[NYCGirl]

33. Can't a libertarian be a conservative? I know little about libertarians.

[K-W]

38. Not really.

Liberitarianism is a radical political philosophy that should be repudiated by true conservatives.

To make them the same philosophy one has to oversimplify both down to a useless generalization like "small government"

[Cleita]

39. They are basically Republicans who believe in

sexual freedom and drugs.

[NYCGirl]

43. I can't remember who said it, but I've heard it described as "Libertarians

are Republicans who want to keep their drugs."

[cascadiance]

37. So did he say he voted for Badnarik then?

[ScreamingMeemie]

42. "I am a Pompous Ass"...who thinks other people care what I think

:hi:

[NYCGirl]

30. He's a Libertarian.

And he makes some good points about patriotism and the PERCEPTION (not the reality) of the left. Rachel points out the right's jingoism.

This is a fine segment.

[LSK]

32. damn, i missed it n/t

[ScreamingMeemie]

41. He made me angry so I turned him off. A grieving mother is not crazy,

and if he listened to other people (he says he doesn't care what other people think) perhaps he wouldn't have to admit to being wrong. What he fails to address, is that the We the People has been taken out of the Government. That's the problem. Not some partyline bullshit. I don't walk the partyline and yet Tucker says I do....Good that he knows me better than I know myself.

[bpilgrim]

44. a modern day Cicero

I got some audio from it i'll post soon.

peace

[CatWoman]

50. are you not the greatest, or what??

:hi:

[stopbush]

45. Tucker isn't a real conservative/RWer, he just plays one on TV.

He's a total sell out. I get the feeling he doesn't believe 5% of the spin he parrots. He's woefully uninformed - I assume he avoids info because he knows that his RW act would fall apart. He elects to regurgitate the RW talking points to support his sell out.

Someday, he'll fess up to being a closet liberal, but only after all of his TV shows and newspaper columns have been canceld by the RW.

[bpilgrim]

47. a pencil-neck-geek is closer to the truth

though he is smart enough to know that the iraq war was wrong and an ongoing disaster but unwilling to stop attacking Dem's who are speaking out... even the MOTHER of a fallen solider :puke:

peace

[Cleita]

49. Yes, that was really low.n/t

[Cleita]

48. I guess that makes him a hypocrite, which is worse than being

a true conservative like Pat Buchanan.
