This Gay Magazine uses Tucker Carlson as a fashion statement
I was on this gay website earlier today and then I saw Tucker Carlson's picture on it.

Is he gay? I don't think so. But it is the fact that he was even on it. They said that because he uses bow-ties, he has set a trend.

Well, I don't wear bowties. But that's not the point.

I find it ironic that Carlson is on the right of things, but the viewpoints he represents are against homosexuals???? I don't think he is a homophobe, but I am sure his counterparts are.

1. I've always wondered about Tucker...
He has a Barbra Streisand fixation, poofy looking hair and acts sort of prissy. Is there something Tucker isn't telling us?? :-)

I don't think he himself is particularly homophobic. I know Novak, his right wing buddy on "Crossfire", is homophobic.

2. he isn't gay, but
i believe he is married and has a child so i dont' think he is gay.but,i don't think he opposes gay rights either. at least from what i know i don't think he has ever said anything about homosexuality being wrong in any way. and didn't he give an interview to some other "gay magazine" before ?

3. Oh yeah
I don't think he is gay. And I remember that he was married. Honestly, to me, he is the model moderate Republican that we should be looking at. That's the moderate Republican that needs to take back their party.

4. i agree
i find the guy very annoying, but he doesn't have the nastiness or repulsiveness that many of todays republicans have, especially if you look at those on fox news. tucker has actually criticized fox news also.

5. I know him...
3 darling kids and as I've posted before, a LOT more moderate in "real-life" away from the confrontational program. Let's see how he does on PBS -- a cool move on his party (professionally) and probably a chance to let his better self be revealed.

13. He's been looking almost miserable on some of the Crossfire segments.
Maybe he'll find a better niche on PBS. What's he going to do, by the way?

17. There are lots of married gay men. One of my best friends was married
for 23 years, had 3 kids...finally admitted he was living a lie. I stay in infrequent touch with him, he says he knows 2 other guys we went to school with who did the same thing.

6. married with kids
during the Fox phone number event (shameful), he mentioned that his wife and kid(s?) were scared or something like that. doesn't necessarily mean he's not gay, but certainly not out of the closet.

tucker's not a political moderate by the way. he is a self-described libertarian. he just happens to be more consistent than most. he is probably moderate in terms of not being a raging a$$hole like most republicans these days.

8. I know he's my fashion standard...
...on how NOT to dress or style one's hair. Seriously, though, he doesn't agree with us on most things, but I like him.

Later.

11. I think he is a cutie :)
He never struck me as the shameful Repub type. He seems for socially liberal but fiscally conservative. I can disagree with those types but still respect them. It is Santorums et al that I can;t even respect.

15. wow
Those of you who think he is a moderate and not like one of "them" must not be listening to him. He is one of the ugliest toadies of the VRWC. Snide, sarcastic, untruthful and a full shill for the RNC. He makes me feel sick, there's so much guttermouthing from him.

If he only does that for money, well you know what that makes him.

14. He's imitating PJ O'Rourke and William Buckley...
not just in dress, but in style and presentation.

He thinks he's "hip"- too bad his ideological soulmates hate gays and minorities- that aint too hip Tucky..
