Tucker Carlson: only losers would stay 3 hours in line to vote.

[endnote]

Republicans are busy, they have jobs!!!

That's what this little SOB said. He seemed down though, as he repeated on Hardball that Kerry will win...

[sharp_stick]

1. He's still feeling a little hurt

The beating that Jon Stewart laid on him is still eating away.

[Liberal Veteran]

2. Bowtie Boy can go fuck himself with a rusty morningstar.

I hate that right wing motherfucker.

[mw]

49. I met him at the convention, and he was an asshole

I passed him by, that is, right next to him. He was on his cell outside the hall.

He looked at me as he spoke. I waved and smiled as I passed by--I didn't stop.

Carlson gave an exaggerated pissed off wave back, and turned away.

What a crotch sniff.

[funky_bug]

3. Good for him. He's already making excuses b/c he knows * is toast.

That made my day... even if it came from that little bowtie dickface.

[feistydem]

13. He better hope Kerry wins after predicting it. I'm sure he's lost favor

in GOP circles on the Hill.

Diss Bush and you get exterminated by Rove.

[LiberalAndProud]

32. French toast (as opposed to Liberty toast?)

[Memekiller]

4. HEAR THAT REPUBLICANS!

Only LOSERS wait in line 3 hours to vote!!! Your God says so! STAY HOME!!!

[endnote]

9. If you are a Republican STAY HOME AND PRAY ON ELECTION DAY!

[iconoclastic cat]

5. Hey, I'm all for Repubs getting fed up with lines and skipping out!

I, on the other hand, would wait on hot coals for three hours to vote.

[nadinbrzezinski]

31. You do not know this little secret

but many repubs are going to the polls and ahem skipping ship

Some of them are even voting straight democratic ticket.

You also do not know this (don't blame you by the way) last time this happened was 1932

:-)

I want those loosers out there with me voting

;-)

[LiberalAndProud]

34. You know, I think you may be right. Lovely thought.

[iconoclastic cat]

54. What leads you to believe that they'll secretly vote for Kerry or dems?

Could you explain this to me? I am also interested to hear what happened in '32. Do tell!

[nookiemonster]

6. Listen up Republicans!

Your boy Tucker is trying to tell you something.

[lanparty]

7. Only Democrats have ...

... only Democrats have polling places that are DELIBERATELY understaffed without enough voting machines!!!

[CrispyQ]

8. Only losers let a 3 hour wait keep them from voting.

[VOX]

11. Yes! Well said, PNR!

Thanks. :toast:

[Moonbeam_Starlight]

10. He's right

Hear that freepers? If you are standing there more than say, oh, 10 minutes, you better leave.

Seriously. You'll be in danger of being a loser if you stay much longer than that. And you don't want that.

[Warren DeMontague]

12. Right, Republicans are Busy- trying to keep black people from the polls...

for example.

Maybe, Tucker, it says something about your mind-bogglingly incompetent president that some of us would stand naked in a fucking snowdrift... until our frostbitten arms fell off and were eaten by passing Yeti... to vote against that stupid shitwit in the White House.

[feistydem]

19. Ha! "A passing Yeti" ?! I love it. Laughed my ass off.

[expatriate]

57. Thanks for this image! I needed the laugh! n/t

[klook]

14. Votin's hard work.

We're workin' hard. Lotta good people in that line. 'preciate their service. Freedom's on the march!

I'll stay as long as it takes. Most important vote I've ever cast.

[SammyWinstonJack]

15. I must be a "loser" then

After waiting four long years to get rid of the chimp, I would have stood in line for four days, if that's what it took to vote.

[mailman82]

24. Mailman82

Give him a rifle and send his cowardly little ass to Iraq. His bow tie will go with desert BDU's.

[nadinbrzezinski]

35. What did the troops do to you?

:-)

[Flammable Materials]

16. Maybe "Fucker" means ...

... that only losers would stand in line for three hours because he believes the election is rigged and Duh will be re-selected anyway.

[grytpype]

17. Repugs stay home!

Or your Repug small businesses, or whatever!

DON'T VOTE!

VOTING IS FOR LOSERS!

FUCKER CARLSON SAID SO!

[PROGRESSIVE1]

18. A warning to All Republicans:

If you wait in line to vote you will be labeled a looser and will be looked down upon by society.

This WARNING only applies to Republicans!

[txindy]

20. Keep yapping, Tucker, you're only helping John Kerry w/ remarks like that

:eyes: Because Tuck is the only person in the country with deep-seated feelings about politics, right? :eyes:

[indigobusiness]

21. Somebody should remind him

it is everyone's CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT to vote, regardless of how long it takes. Working for the man can ALWAYS wait.

Only a loser would call ANY voter a loser.

[grytpype]

22. You can smell the fear....

[July]

23. Only people who cherish the right to vote are willing to do this.

Screw Tucker Carlson.

[nadinbrzezinski]

25. Let me get this straight

those who do their duty, tehir civic duty, are loosers

Why does bow tie boy hate us so much? And are the radicals coming out with excuses why they did not go vote?

[Zorra]

26. DEMS: Get to the polls real early and make the republican losers wait in

line half the night.

It is their fault that voting problems have not been addressed, and their plan to slow down the voting process.

Make them pay.

[Toots]

27. No No not losers....Stoned Slackers...somehow he got off message

Doesn't he watch the Daily Show???? :+

[belle]

28. And his adam's apple bobbed convincingly over the bowtie as he said it...

:eyes:

i am still horrified that he's only 35. I thought he was 50! I think he's one of those men who were born middle-aged. probably wore that dorky bow-tie to school every day, except when he wore his special hall-monitor uniform.

[Hog lover]

46. ROTFLMAO - I can picture him in a hall-monitor uniform!

My visualization:

tight khaki shorts pulled up high under his armpits, little sash saying "FASCIST HALL MONITOR", bow tie askew, hair sticking up, short-sleeve white shirt (also tightly fitting), too-long belt pulled tight with the end wrapped around and tucked in, etc.

[peacetalksforall]

29. Actually, this is wonderful NEWS. If there are a lot of Republican

voters, they will undoubtedly have lines that are longer than three hours - that means it is DEMEANING to wait. It is beneath them. I was going to wait forever. Now I'll wait until.....What comes after forever? I love being called a loser by him.

[endnote]

48. I'm bringing a fucking chair and a book. And I 'll sta as long as it takes

[11 Bravo]

30. And no one knows losers like Tucker.

After all, who else have you seen de-pantsed on national TV. (Bless you, Jon Stewart.)

[kaitykaity]

33. People don't wait three hours in line to vote because they're

HAPPY about the way things are, Tucker.

Hello? Do ya need political science classes to go with
that journalism school Jon Stewart suggested?

[Edmond Dantes]

36. GOP already planning the election loss spin?

Geez, I can almost hear the GOP shrieking already: John Kerry--The Loser President.

Newsflash for Bowtie Bastard: Those "losers" are concerned citizens who care about the future of our country. In fact, they so value American democracy that they are willing to forego "The Almighty Dollar" in order to stand in line and vote.

Take Jon Stewart's advice and go to a real journalism school, because you're starting to look "Tuckered out".

[Nicholas_J]

37. Nah...

Only democrats are actually willing to take time off from work, even lose a few hour pay, in order to vote. Republicans are too busy figuring out new fraudulent accounting schemes, and methods of disenfranchising voters to get their asses down to the polls.
They figure they dont have to vote as they have been busy utilizing the on ly methods by which Republicans ever win eletions. Throwing out democratic ballots.

Nothing makes me feel so good as hearing chicken shit little conservatives like Tucker whining when the are worrying that their chickenshit little candidate is in trouble. Thanks Carlson.

[Nicholas_J]

38. Nah...

Is itty bitty tucker sd because his party is not able to get their little hands into the ballot boxes this time?

[idiosyncratic]

39. I thought he said "only angry people wait in line for 3 hours."

I didn't see it, but in an earlier thread, I thought that is what was reported.

[SeveneightyWhoa]

40. Guess what? It doesn't matter. Tucker actually thinks Kerry will win:

Here's proof:
http://www.counterbias.com/blog/2004/10/tucker-carlson-thinks-kerry-will-win.html

[dave502d]

41. This is what he should have said.

Only people that have been cheated stay in line for 4 years.

[RainDog]

42. READ THIS

Tucker should be ashamed of himself.

http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/index-old.php

please read this email to Josh Marshall:

My job is to get people to the polls and, more importantly, to keep them there. Because they’re crazily jammed. Crazily. No one expected this turnout. For me, it’s been a deeply humbling, deeply gratifying experience. At today’s early vote in the College Hill district of East Tampa -- a heavily democratic, 90% African American community — we had 879 voters wait an average of five hours to cast their vote. People were there until four hours after they closed (as long as they’re in line by 5, they can vote).

Here’s what was so moving:

We hardly lost anyone. People stood outside for an hour, in the blazing sun, then inside for another four hours as the line snaked around the library, slowly inching forward. It made Disneyland look like speed-walking. Some waited 6 hours. To cast one vote. And EVERYBODY felt that it was crucial, that their vote was important, and that they were important.

...there's more...

[endnote]

50. WOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOO!!!!

[question everything]

43. Takes one to know one n/t

[symphony]

44. Boohoo

use the bowtie to wipe the tears ... and slobber. Then go get a haircut so you're nice and pretty while waiting at the polls!

I think he meant loser repug rednecks without jobs will be stinking out the lines.

Tacky hast seen de light!

[ThoughtCriminal]

45. If the Republicans in line want to give up go home

Us losers will be happy to tell them how it turned out.

[Robbie67]

52. I'm with ya

Republicans should certainly go home if they become bored.

[noamnety]

47. He's right, we got all the time in the world

They should have thought of that before they outsourced our jobs.

:evilgrin:

[deadparrot]

51. My dad, a lifelong Dem working three teaching jobs, thanks Tucker.

[grace0418]

53. A weinie in a bow-tie said that!?

Wow, what an insult.

[Garbo 2004]

55. The Republicans act as if they have a lock on patriotism and remind us

constantly about those in the armed services who fought and died to secure and maintain our freedoms. Seems to me that the very least Americans can do is go out and cast their vote. If that means standing line a few hours, taking time off work to do so, it's a small sacrifice.

People will stand in line for hours for concert tickets, stores to open on the day after Thanksgiving and now even flu shots. Those who truly believe in preserving our freedoms will also stand and wait if that's what it takes to cast their votes.

Funny how it is that some of those who complained in the past about voter apathy now seem threatened when people are willing to stand in line and wait for hours just to cast their vote.

[endnote]

56. No kidding... People would get to concert sites the night before

at times, and sleep outside to get a good spot...

[phish420]

58. Good! I hope the Repugnant LOSERS stay at their

$200,000+/yr jobs and DONT VOTE!

[phish420]

59. Personally, I took the day OFF...

and will be monitoring the polls in Orlando

[expatriate]

60. Considering what some Afghani women went through to exercise their

right to vote, a three hour wait in a line is a cakewalk.

I've already voted, and had to contend with considerable hassle to do that - but I'd stand in line for a lot more than three hours to vote against the corrupt Bush administration. And every time I felt tired or bored or like giving up, I would remember those women attending classes to learn to read enough to be able to vote, and enduring censure and violence and death threats.

There are certainly things worth waiting in line for, and the only "loser" is someone who denigrates people who are determined to fulfil their responsibility as American citizens to vote.

[Triana]

61. Fine. All you Republicans who have to wait 3 hours...

...to vote can GO HOME and not vote! Fine with me! HA!

:evilgrin:

[endnote]

62. I took that day off. I'll do all I can and spend the ev/night here!

[Logansquare]

63. Must. Hurt. Him. eom
