Evil Super Computer's rogues gallery: Tucker Carlson
2010-12-31 21:20:00 Humans rarely impress me. But even I occasionally marvel at the evil lows mankind can reach--especially in sports. Athletes can do some pretty vile things in the heat of competition, sort of like the malfunction I had after @redeyesportsguy's illegal Bieber downloads gave me a virus. Anyway, I present Evil Super Computer's rogues gallery of sports(ish) villains. Today's inductee: Fox News' Tucker Carlson. Click through to see my past honorees too. BWAHAHAHAHAHA!...
Tucker Carlson launches The Daily Caller

David Gregory's Race To The White House Off to Good Start on MSNBC
2008-03-20 00:04:00 So, I finally got a chance in this hectic week to see David Gregory's new Race to the White House, which replaced Tucker Carlson's show at 6pm.I thought Race to the White House was excellent. And I enjoyed it a lot more than Carlson's show.It's interesting to analyze why.After all, Carlson and Gregory both talk a lot about politics, and if Gregory has more experience as a reporter, Carlson certainly is at least as articulate, and a lot more humorous.But Tucker Carlson's show always seemed somewhat listless, in contrast to Gregory's show which was bursting with energy.Here are some of the reasons:.Gregory's Race to the White House has sharp, colorful graphics and scenics ... the red-orange background is hot and welcoming. (In contrast, and in McLuhanesque terms*, Tucker Carlson's whole approach may have been too laid back and cool.).Mike Murphy, one of the panelists, has one of the sharpest wits going. He had me and most of the panelists laughing a dozen or more times toni...

MSNBC Leans Left
2008-03-11 10:56:00 Conservative Tee Vee anchordude Tucker Carlson concedes the obvious: ?I don?t think I was a perfect fit in the lineup,? he said. ?I think that was obvious to anyone who was tuning in.? Still, he said, ?It?s not my nature to cry bias.? Phil Griffin, senior vice president of NBC News and executive in charge of MSNBC, said in an interview that the decision was more about Mr. Gregory and his rising profile at NBC than about the viewership for Mr. Carlson?s show. Though badly trailing his competition on Fox News (Brit Hume) and CNN (?The Situation Room?), Mr. Carlson?s program increased its viewership by 24 percent in February 2008, compared with a year earlier, to an average of 430,000 viewers a night, according to NBC?s analysis of data from Nielsen Media Research. ?The show was doing a little bit better,? Mr. Griffin said. ?If David hadn?t come along, we wouldn?t have made the switch.? ?The way I?m looking at it,? he added, ?we?ve got an opportunity that fit with what we?re trying to ...

Tucker Carlson on Spitzer: "A lot of us are like him."
2008-03-11 02:00:00 "You know, big deal, married man goes to prostitute! In Europe, this wouldn't even make the back pages of the newspaper. It's a uniquely american story. We?re a uniquely, you know, pandering society and hypocritical society, when it comes to sex." Alan Dershowitz spinning to MSNBC's Contessa Brewer and Tucker Carlson on his former Harvard law student Eliot Spitzer. NewsBusters Dershowitz also blamed "men" (as a group) for thinking with their private parts. Tucker Carlson agreed with that line, and said that Spitzer is sleazy, but this is "one of the least sleazy things he?s done." Brewer: "As I said, he said he was going in to clean up Albany, he said that it was ethics reform. Talk about unethical, he's got a wife he's been married to for more than 20 years and three daughters and the public trust." Dershowitz: "At worst, he's a john, he's a customer. And a customer can't be held responsible for whether or not the ring pays their taxes or launders money. I mean, let?s not t...

Dream Weavers
2008-02-21 14:17:00 The Hansel and Gretel bread crumbs lead to former John McCain henchman John Weaver. On MSNBC's "Morning Joe" Tucker Carlson is incredulous but certainly not shocked at the sleazy Wash Post running a photo of McCain's Other Woman Vicki Iseman in "a ball gown." (Miss Vicki is a younger dead ringer for wife Cindy) McCain has Bill Clinton's Paula Jones hired gun Bob Bennett bravely mounting McCain's defense. Washington Facts Of Life: 1. Politicians have affairs.2. Lobbyists write legislation.3. Young journos: Probe how uberlobbyist Liz Robbins got where she is today. Follow her. You won't be bored.

The Bride Of Sharpton
2007-12-22 17:10:00 Al Sharpton can?t help himself. Here he is: suited up in a banker?s three-piece, a Churchill-size cigar between his fingers (?the power look,? he says), and anchored in a club chair at the Grand Havana Room, the members-only stogie club that hovers above the clouds, on the top floor of 666 Fifth Avenue. New York MagIt is fitting that the Devil Himself, Al Sharpton, is ensconced in 666 - the number of the devil. Al is so full of himself that he plays a reporter ass-kissing phone messages from Obama and Hillary - both courting his support. NY Mag When will this phony preacher vanish into irrelevancy? Suddenly hip Tucker Carlson pimps his hipness in a New Republic piece on wacko Ron Paul. Carlson gushes about the ride of his life in a Nevada whoremaster's limo (the guy's supporting Paul) in "Pimp My Ride." My opinion? Tucker needs to get laid by an expert.

Tucker Carlson Sets Up Ron Paul With Prostitutes
2007-12-13 23:01:00 This is a double-smear campaign! The media, namely TV personality and Dancing With The Stars reject Tucker Carlson, actually arranged a smear campaign against Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul. Tucker Carlson phoned a brothel owner friend of his named Dennis Hof, in Nevada, and asked him to check out Ron Paul while Paul was in Nevada. He then proceeded to bring Hof and two of Hof's prostitutes to a Reno news conference, and put out the story that Ron Paul is endorsed by a Nevada brothel owner.

Rudy Giuliani?s Lies Make Easy Target
2007-09-28 04:08:00 Rudy Giuliani stages a phone call from his wife right during his speech at the NRA, reminding him to pick up milk on the way home. Photo by: REUTERS. Perhaps Democrats would like to face Rudy Giuliani in 2008 more than any other front runner. Giuliani is running on one issue alone and that is September 11 and the lies he is telling along the way would make an excellent target for who ever turns out to be the Democratic nominee. Last weeks events concerning the National Rifle Association highlighted yet again Rudy Giuliani?s use of ?truth stretching?. It does not take anyone long to find out that Rudy Giuliani is a liar by searching YouTube.com. If you take what he said last week to the NRA and compare it to his views as mayor of New York City you will see that he either is lying now or he changed his mind. Giuliani claimed that it was, of course, September 11, 2001 that made him change his views on gun control. If that was the case, the video of him from 200...

Jason Whitlock uses Tucker Carlson for BP
2007-04-14 15:13:00 You may be shocked to know, that I am not George Gallop and I am not a pollster. I can’t conduct a nationwide poll.   I did conduct an unscientific poll this morning.  I am not even Dick Morris, who claims to be able conduct a nationwide poll over night. However I do have two eyes, two ears and the connective tissue between them. The drive-by media treats the Reverends Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson as deities.  In contrast the general puplic treats them like hucksters, here ,here ,here Jason Whitlock, a sports columist, uses CNN”s Tucker Carlson for batting practice.  Hint Carlson is the one in the bow tiie. Whitlock is one making sense.  Big Lead has the story,   Give Whitlock Carlston’s gig, but drop the bow tie.  What Whitlocks is saying is out step with the MSM, but in step with the public. Aside, to Whitlock: lose some weight. Rush Limbaugh did it. So can you. We want to keep you around awhile. (H/T: Allah Pundit,...

Tucker Carlson - White's Only Scholarship? Just Say Tucker,
2006-12-02 15:59:08 I've got Tucker Carlson's show on - the one called The Situation -- and he's actually supporting the idea of a White's only scholarship at Boston U! Well, not really. His point is that having such a program shows how stupid race-based programs are. Or do they? I think they show just how selfish and myopic people who come up with this ideas -- or support them -- are. I feel terrible that I have to remind people like Tucker (who's show I actually enjoy) that the reason we have minority-based programs is because the people they are intended for are -- minority. Get it? Hello?These programs exist because of numerous examples of discrimination in the White community that runs in the common scholarship programs. This is an age-old way to get over that problem. If the people who don't like these programs want to do something, they should embrace diversity. Tucker and people who agree with him don't want to embrace diversity. Well, then they should not complain about the...

Tucker Carlson rips Wesley Clark
