Is anyone watching the Carlson boy debating Wesley Clark?
I had hopes that Shuster would be there today, but no such luck. There was the boy in all his nuttiness.

He had on, as his first guest, Wesley Clark, who Limpballs, it seems, trashed today. The Carlson boy wanted to 'debate' the issue with Clark.

Clark cleaned his clock every which way from Sunday.

But, to me, the most interesting thing was they way the two were miked. Clark's voice seemed much louder and clearer than the Carlson boy was. It made Clark sound reasonable and in control and the Carlson boy (even more that usual) shrill and hysterical. He sounded like he was talking while someone was squeezing his nuts.

It was a riot. :rofl:

3. Is there a bigger asshole than Tucker Carlson?
Just asking.

Such a waste of grey matter between little pissypants ears. He should kiss the ground a true soldier like Wesley Clark walks on.

15. Remember "The Spin Room?"
How the HELL did the Carlson boy get a show, yet Bill Press is on as his guest?? Never made ANY sense to me.

16. No, just ask Jon Stewart.
IMO Jon's appearance on Crossfire was the best on-air live smackdown of all time.

8. The squeaky, whiney, frat-boy against the FOUR-STAR.
The Carlson boy reached some kind of huffing and puffing sputtering crescendo.

General clark had a gleam in his eye, like he was enjoying the mis-match. Faux News all over again. LOL

9. Tucker kept telling the General that he wanted to shut down Rimjob's show
And the General kept smiling at Tucker, telling him that he didn't want to shut down the Rimjob's show, but only to stop publicly financing his show on Armed Forces Radio. Tucker as a last straw then compared Armed Forces Radio to NPR, suggesting that any censorship of NPR would be against free speech.

Doesn't Armed Forces Radio already get highly regulated as far as who can broadcast a show on it and what the content might be? After all, their broadcast goes into a theater of war and the morale of the troops is a consideration that requires more scrutiny than an NPR broadcast. Does anyone know whether there are higher standards and requirements to get on Armed Forces Radio? I think the General was right on in suggesting that, since Armed Forces Radio is supported by the budget approved by Congress, the Congress should have a hand in deciding who gets to have a show that our troops listen to. The General wasn't suggesting that the CONTENT of Rimjob's show be regulated. He was suggesting that Rimjob should not have a show at all on publicly financed radio.

11. Right, as if NPR is such a bastion of hate speech.
I guess NPR is "liberal" because it's not hysterical ranting a la Limbaugh?

Ergo, hysterical ranting is "conservative" and rationality is "liberal."

I'm okay with that.

21. I see tuckered had all the
fwr talking points down in his notes.

A strong debater like General Clark can wipe the floor with snively rw boys who spout the dittos from limpbaugh.

25. Tucker threw a high-pitched squealing fit after his interview of Clark
He had some media watchdog guy on right after Clark and he was visibly upset. He called the guy a political hack and a liar and didn't afford the guy an opportunity to respond and just cut him off. Tucker's voice was shaking. I didn't catch the guy's name, but I think Tucker was still reeling from being unable to shake General Clark's smiling self-confidence.

14. Sorry I missed that!
Thanks for the update. Sounds like it was great! So easy to imagine "the Carlson boy" (lol) looking/sounding the shrill chickenhawk that he is while talking to Clark.

33. Tucker Carlson debating General Clark? How absurd.
Carlson must have felt like he'd been taken to the principal's office.
