On Wednesday's Tucker, the hopefully soon to be unemployed host gets riled up because Democratic presidential candidate, John Edwards, had the nerve to mention homeless veterans and those less fortunate in his holiday ad. Tucker calls it the Scrooge ad, and then attacks Edwards for not being Jesusy enough, and mocks him for being wealthy. Tucker, as usual, is offensive, annoying and wrong.

As a favor to those of you who can't stomach Tucker, I have posted Edwards' holiday ad below. Enjoy...

is tucker getting fat?

When does Tucker Carlson's contract with MSNBC end?

Edwards is a phony and a Socialist, Sorry john, those policies don't work..

He is so repulsive and elitist -- I can't watch him. The way he says "the poor" shows that he just believes that these should be anonymous people that he doesn't really care to hear about, doesn't want to see or know about them. There are so few people where the sound of their voice annoys me, but Tucker is one of them. Let's hope he's at the end of the line on MSNBC.

John @ 3:

Who are you talking to?

Have you been to Norway? Socialistic democracy is VERY successful there.

You are just parroting some old Reich wing bullshit.

Apparently being a TV pundit/moron is lifetime job security. No matter how stupid, offensive, and wrong you are, once on TV always on TV. This jerk will pop up again with a show on some other network. Does he look worried? Why should he be? How many times has he landed on his feet after losing a show? Somehow once you're a "name" TV guy, you never have to prove your worth to anyone ever again. Think of all the Republi-cons who should have been laughed off TV years ago who still make a good living from it. This azzhole will, too.

with that wide stance on his lips, it appears tucker has been meeting larry craig at the airport a little too often.

I am this close to an annurism. Even as an Athiest i know what Christmas is supposed to be about: the Birth of Christ who's parents were refugees and could find no room in the Inn. Homeless they went to a manger where Mary gave birt to Jesus who was kept warm by the breath of animals. Homeless? Yes.

So this Christmas when celebrating the birth of your Saviour please try not to let the idea that people are homeless. Might spoil the fun.

Fuck you, Tucker.

Did I hear him accuse our homeless veterns, the 25%, of being mentally ill alcoholics? What? I thought conservatives loved ALL our veteran's. Pathetic excuse for a human being.

*So this Christmas when celebrating the birth of your Saviour please try not to let the idea that people are homeless enter into your mind.

Yes, you just heard him declare Post Traumatic Stress to be a myth.

I wish everyone would quit misspelling Mr. Carlson's name. It starts with an "F," not a "T."

John @ 3:

Phony and Socialist are mutually excusive concepts.

Try again.

Very few people seem to remember that FDR came from wealth, and yet did more to help the poor than about any other President.

When people bitch about Edward's wealth, remind them of FDR.

Pucker up Tucker and kiss my *ss!

I nominate Audie Murphy (link to Murphy PTSD) as Tuckers Ghost of Christmas Past experience.

John @ 3:

I think John thinks Socialist and communist is the same thing - that can be the only reason why he says these policies don't work. Insurance is a socialist concept. Do you have insurance? HMO's are a socialist concept. John - do you use an HMO? Social security is a socialist concept. Even the internet is a socialist concept. These concepts work for me.

What the hell is wrong with this guy? Tucker with an "F" is apparently cut from the same cloth as Dubya. The man is a sociopath with absolutely no compassion. And enough of his bullshit about not being a Republican because he sure as hell gobbles down the RNC talking points like a street whore.

This is total retaliation for the negative press from Huckabee's and Giuliani's Christmas messages. I don't watch Tucker because he makes me throw up a little in the back of my throat, but has anyone seen his coverage of the aforementioned messages? What does he have to say about HUckabee's Jeebus quote or Giuliani promising "sthrict conthervative judgeth"?

Cancelling Tucker has shot up to the top of my Christmas wish list.

John @ 3:

Edwards is a phony and a Socialist, Sorry john, those policies don't work..

Go flush your self!

As a veteran, I would like to take this opportunity to say to Tucker Carlson:

Fuck you very much you little preppie bastard. You'll never know hunger and poverty, and John Edwards is pointing out how many veterans are homeless. And Tucker, if you don't like to be reminded of the plight of our veterans during the Christmas season, you show that YOU are really the Scrooge in this debate.

Homelessness in America hinges on many issues, the most common of which is unemployment, forced unemployment. The number of homeless families is on the rise, the unseen homeless. Among the visible homeless, typically middle aged male, alcohol abuse and mental illness are just two factors, they are not "the facts" of homelessness. Often, once someone becomes homeless they develop these substance abuses tendencies, not before!

Why does Tucker still have a job?

What an irritating little twerp he is. Somebody get a fly swatter.

Frankly, that is the difference between republicans that claim Christianity and everybody else that deals with and helps the less fortunate. The republicans have no idea how foolish they look when their hate for the poor oozes out onto the airwaves. I say, keep it up Tucker, you stupid sob.
If Jesus was alive today He would be with the poor, the prisoners, the downtrodden, the sick, etc. He would not be hanging with pompous, rich stingy republicans.

Tucker, MSNBC's small turd that won't flush. (Scarborough being the larger double enchirito turd )

Tucker lacks the human empathy and imagination to grasp the connection between shooting and being shot at, seeing your friends blown up before your eyes, all on government orders and for the putative sake of the nation, and the impulse to self-medicate after you get home... He is too disgusting for words.

I disagree with Edwards. Its one out of three.

How dare John Edwards mention homeless veterans and depress rich people like Tucker at Christmas time?

What he really should be talking about is the very very troubling news that...

...the last week leading up to the holidays will be hectic with 35% of americans still not having started their holiday shopping...

and that...

...authorities in Aruba announced they have closed the investigation into the 2005 disappearance of Alabama teen Natalee Holloway because they dont have enough evidence to charge anyone...

and that...

...the 16 year-old sister of Britney Spears says she is pregnant and that the father is her longtime boyfriend...

Tucker the Shit, while mentally ill, delusional and drunk on his own vanity, is not a homeless veteran because he never served, like so many of the Chicken Hawks.

Eric Jaffa @ 2:

Not soon enough. I'm sure his bags are packed for the trip over to FAUX News.
He is such a punk. He'll fit right in over there. Hey, maybe they will replace John Gibson with Tucker. Now that would be funny on so many levels.

Now you've done it! John is all confused now.

When is MSNBC going to replace this silver-spoon pantywaist ass-wipe who is named after a failed automobile with a real journalist?

I hear rumors that Rachel Maddow, a true intellect rather than a tucker lightweight, is being considered for some kind of position with the network. I hope she replaces him - it certainly can't be too soon!!

Tucker is giving Log Cabin Republicans a bad name.

Oh my god. What a disgusting human being (meaning Tucker of course). And John Edwards is what I always thought a Christian was supposed to be. Why is Tucker making fun of him? Aren't Christians SUPPOSED to express concern for the poor and homeless?

Hey Tucker, you forgot something......this is the time to give, not receive.

Peace on Earth Tucker!

I see he's wearing a big boys tie now. I guess he wears long pants with his suit coat too. Maybe next year he'll start shaving.

Tucker, Born with a silver spoon in his ass.

TTS = Tucker Tosses Salad

Mean-spirited little twerp.

Look Tucker is repulsive & should not have a TV show but Edwards seems very calculating also.This is the guy who voted for the Iraq war because he was advised to vote for it.All because he wanted to be Prez just disgusting really.He now states he wanted to contest the Ohio election results of 2004 but Kerry did not want to.See folks there is something wrong with electing someone to the Prez who has never made a mistake on his own.Notice how he blames others for his wrongs.Is this what we want in a Prez ?We already have Bush blaming others for his f...ups.

Who is this fat young man to laugh at veterans? In which branch of the military did he serve? What were his campaigns? Can he produce a DD214 showing his honorable discharge? If he never served, he should quit his job and enlist, right now, as penance.

For what Tucker claims to be a "scrooge ad" it sure was uplifting and positive, nothing different than what the Salvation Army tries to do each X-mas. But of course as we all know, Tucker Carlson has no soul. Is there any way to get his show canceled faster? And please take Chris Matthews and Joe Scarborough him.

John #3 doesn't support the troops. Maybe in his mind, he thinks they are phony homeless soldiers.

Tucker is a tool, was born a tool and will die a tool. In typical neocon fashion, he rabidly attacks when a Dem does the right and honorable thing. His act is so very tired and his desperation is obvious.

AF

He seems to hate Edwards as much as O'Reilly. He'll fit right in over there at FOX.

BMcGarth @ 47:

Guess you missed the part where he said he takes full responsibility for that vote and was wrong to vote for it. He only said it for about 3 or 4 months straight. But some people were too busy talking about a haircut.

tucker is a total ASSHOLE!!!

Tucker.....arrogant and always wrong.

Not a pretty combo.

She should take the ribbon from her hair....shake it loose and let it fall.......

then go away.

Who's that woman talking to Tucker? What restrained her from jumping across the table and beating him?

"I'm all for remembering the poor at Christmas." Except when it actually comes to remembering them and doing something. What a jack ass.

(Tucker) Fat and Stupid is no way to go through life Son.

Arrrggggg! Tucker you TOTALLY missed the message you sick twisted f***. What a total idiot.

When will these right wing jackasses go away? I just can't take it anymore.

who gives a shit...the guy is a loser...granted he's a rich loser......but he's a loser none the less

Wow. Tucker's really an asshole here. Glad I don't have cable......

*ucker never grew up. He still thinks Christmas is all about what Santa will give him.

Republicans are terrified of Edwards. I recently listened to a historian who likened Edwards to FDR (also likened Obama to JFK). Republicans are terrified, because if we get single payer health care in this country, it will mean a solid 40 year Democrat majority and Edwards is the most likely person to give it to us. Moreover, they are terrified of him because he has a solid "southern" appeal and is white and male - thereby, removing their ability to play race and gender hatred. Of course Carlson has to besmirch Edwards - he is crapping his pants over the risk that Edwards might be the next President.

Born on third base...thinks he hit a triple.

I've heard this phrase before, but it just fits Tucker so well.

This was ignorant even for a stupid, turd mouthed, milkbaby like Tucker. One more reason to kick my tv into the dump. (or at least cut off my cable connection)
;)

Symon @ 63:

Tucker is the typical arrogant spoiled brat who never could see the world except from his backyard because Mommy and Daddy looked down on the less fortunate as lazy good for nothings and instilled that in him as a value.

I don't need Sissyboy John Edwards telling me to feel guilty about polluting the environment and about the fact that there are people in poverty.

I cherish my freedom to be prosperous and to drive the car I want. It's not my fault there are homeless people out there. Edwards has no business trying to make me and others feel guilty about these things.

Edwards is every bit as phony and disingenuous as Mitt Romney.

Same withO'Reilly. He is scared to death of Edwards.

For the life of me, I can't figure out why the hell this little fucker has a show, anywhere. Other than the fact that his dad is a rich and powerful media king, I mean.

This little twit has absolutely no talent. He's completely self-absorbed. He's dripping with partisanship yet claims to be a moderate. He never does his homework and when confronted on actual facts, he dismisses or cuts off his guests.
How is it in this world that someone like tucker is given the honor and privilege of helping to shape the political debate? Holy Fuck, that's fucked up.

Touch-ee. The only one that can make you feel anything is you. To have a feeling is an action, and you are responsible for your actions, Randy. And you sound hostile about Edwards suggesting that there are homeless. Probably because you feel-wait for it-guilty.

Do the earth a favour, get yourself fixed and don't breed. We can't afford more "Me first, Me second and if there's any left over, Me third" types.

Also, if we all adopted an attitude like yours, your progeny will be gasping for breath, fighting for food, living in cardboard boxes, homeless, all that Armageddon shit. Very cruel.

I find it interesting how Tucker, Hannity and other right-wing millionaires love to point out how John Edwards lives in a mansion. Well, we need to research the dwellings these people live so we can bring it up each time they point their finger at Edwards.

Apparently, you have to be poor in order to care about the poor. Then by Tucker and Hannity's logic, they don't care about the poor. Thanks for clearing that up jackasses.

So, I assume you aren't a Christian. If you were, you would know that it is YOUR and MY duty to look after the poor as if they were Christ himself. Of course, Judaism, Islam, and most other world religions profess that it is our duty to take care of the poor. You sound very much like a selfish, self-centered, mean-spirited person.

You mean like FDR's socialism, that gave us the greatest middle class the world has ever known.

Or do you mean like GWB's socialism? The kind that only goes to the richest 2% of his GOP corporate cronies, at the expense of everyone else.

Bush and his ilk are the biggest tax-payer teet sucking socialists on the face of the earth. I'm surprised you haven't figured that out yet. They steal more money from the government in one day, than 100,000 middle class american's will recieve in their lifetimes!

Well so do I asshole except I believe that we need somebody like Edwards and I'm voting for him because like him I have had enough. Also I don't need to wear my life on my sleeve to make me feel good like you I have what I have and feel damn lucky. I need my SUV. I actually put it in 4WD to get out my driveway (sounds silly doesn't it?). The republicans have made it almost impossible to live on $100,000 a year. I know people who make $20,000 don't want to hear it and I really understand. I could could go on and on but Mr. Randy@68 is a fucktard.

"Scrooge and Marley's, I believe," said one of the gentlemen, referring to his list. "Have I the pleasure of addressing Mr. Scrooge, or Mr. Marley?"

"Mr. Marley has been dead these seven years," Scrooge replied. "He died seven years ago, this very night."

"We have no doubt his liberality is well represented by his surviving partner," said the gentleman, presenting his credentials.

It certainly was; for they had been two kindred spirits. At the ominous word "liberality," Scrooge frowned, and shook his head, and handed the credentials back.

"At this festive season of the year, Mr. Scrooge," said the gentleman, taking up a pen, "it is more than usually desirable that we should make some slight provision for the Poor and Destitute, who suffer greatly at the present time. Many thousands are in want of common necessaries; hundreds of thousands are in want of common comforts, sir."

"Are there no prisons?" asked Scrooge.

"Plenty of prisons," said the gentleman, laying down the pen again.

"And the Union workhouses?" demanded Scrooge. "Are they still in operation?"

"They are. Still," returned the gentleman, "I wish I could say they were not."

"The Treadmill and the Poor Law are in full vigour, then?" said Scrooge.

"Both very busy, sir."

"Oh! I was afraid, from what you said at first, that something had occurred to stop them in their useful course," said Scrooge. "I'm very glad to hear it."

"Under the impression that they scarcely furnish Christian cheer of mind or body to the multitude," returned the gentleman, "a few of us are endeavouring to raise a fund to buy the Poor some meat and drink and means of warmth. We choose this time, because it is a time, of all others, when Want is keenly felt, and Abundance rejoices. What shall I put you down for?"

"Nothing!" Scrooge replied.

"You wish to be anonymous?"

"I wish to be left alone," said Scrooge. "Since you ask me what I wish, gentlemen, that is my answer. I don't make merry myself at Christmas and I can't afford to make idle people merry. I help to support the establishments I have mentioned -- they cost enough; and those who are badly off must go there."

"Many can't go there; and many would rather die."

"If they would rather die," said Scrooge, "they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population."

I met Tucker once at the annual book fair in NY every year...

I did not realize he was such atool when I first met him...

Now I know.

tr @ 72:

Maybe Randy's money, too.

Yes, John Edwards is just like Scrooge. Because the true meaning of Christmas is to ignore those less fortunate than you. In Charles Dickens' classic tale "A Christmas Carol", Scrooge was only thinking of those less fortunate than he. Until the three ghosts came in the night and showed him how Christmas is all about ignoring the plight of the poor. At the end of the tale, Scrooge realizes the error of his socialist ways when he actually cared about poor and unfortunate people, and he becomes filled with a heartwarming sense of self-righteousness and greed.

Well, at least that is the way Republicans like Tucker Carlson rewrite the story in the same way they conveniently rewrite history. Greed is selflessness. Hatred is love. Corruption is integrity. Welcome to the glorious Republican world of doublespeak.

As such, I believe that our rights come from our creator, NOT FROM GOVERNMENT. We don't need people like John Edwards telling us how to live our lives, how much carbon dioxide we should emit, . . .

John Edwards is an arrogant un-christian SOB who thinks that he has all the solutions, and he knows just how to redistribute wealth and control our lives so that there will be no poverty.

Just compare the uplifting message in Huckabee's commercial with the cynical depressing message in Edward's commercial. (BTW, I'm voting for Ron Paul.)

There are a few people that I cannot stand, but this moron is the only one that makes my hair hurt.

Man, Tucker needs to be taken out behind the shed and beaten. How dare john Edwards ruin Christmas cheer by pointing out an ugly truth. Arrgh! This kind of stupid, uniformed, obtuse punditry has got to stop.

All about you and your self centered world, isn't it? Excess consumption is an entitlement to you, right?

Someone needs to tell you. Obviously you forgot Christ's admonitions about the poor. I doubt you can take your SUV to heaven;

Matthew 19:16-23

16Now a man came up to Jesus and asked, "Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life?"
17"Why do you ask me about what is good?" Jesus replied. "There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, obey the commandments."

18"Which ones?" the man inquired.

Jesus replied, " 'Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not give false testimony, 19honor your father and mother,'[d] and 'love your neighbor as yourself.'[e]"

20"All these I have kept," the young man said. "What do I still lack?"

21Jesus answered, "If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."

22When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth.

23Then Jesus said to his disciples, "I tell you the truth, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

If Jesus was alive today he would be renditioned.

TASERed until he reveals the secret hiding place of God.

(Cheney: "Mwah, just how much plastique do you think I need to pack on my camel to take out the Eye of that Needle?")

wow.

well I watched it. it sickened me. and I'm reminded of the term "thou doth protest too loudly."

Christmas is a time to remember what you're thankful for, to display care for family and community, to be charitable. John Edwards just basically reminded us of a part of the community that needs care. thats what homegirl was saying... - its obvious.

first of all, Tucker's declaration of Edwards' commercial that it represents "Scrooge" is inaccurate. Scrooge deliberately *didn't* contribute to anything... employees, charity, himself, anything... during Christmas. Edwards is advocating a charitable spirit.

but more importantly... here's Tucker Carlson... little punk who has cheerleaded this mis-managed, inhumane, possibly illegal war. little privileged punk who advocates a spirit of arrogance and over-self-entitlement, under the guise of "freedom" in America.

here's the culmination of the worst of mismanagement of our veterans, and our economy... tons of homeless veterans... tossed in the face of everything he believes to be right.

so of *COURSE* he's going to rail against it. deep down... he probably *DOES* feel guilty. which isn't what I think Edwards intended... but even if it IS what Edwards intended, well, Tucker, it worked didn't it? you feel guilty for being a douche and making shitty circumstances for people/veterans, don't you...

I make $110,000 a year, and drive an SUV.

Since we are giving our life stories, my husband and I together make 30,000 dollars and drive a CAR. I always feel bad for the less fortunate this time of year (really, all year) and wish I could do more to help them out. There are plenty of needs to be filled in South Carolina where I live. All year we should try to help those that aren't as lucky as ourselves, but with all the overconsumption and excesses of the Christmas season, it is especially important to reach out.

Btw, Mr. Christian, I am an atheist.

Randy @ 92:

You can say that all you want. But it doesn't make it so. By your words and your actions, we know you. Not giving a shit about the homeless and the planet is the proof that dispels your claim.

The word 'Christian' means Christ-like. And according to everything I've read and heard, Christ was not a greedy uncaring asshat. You on the other hand...

Thank you. As person who is a Christian, it is good to be reminded that those of us who profess a faith are not the whole owners of charity and righteousness.

Merry Christmas Randy @ 68. Ah, the smell of neo con Christian hypocrisy that comes this time of year. All of those homeless vets are happy you cherish your freedom to be prosperous and to drive the car you want. You can thank the next homeless vet you see by telling him that. If only you were Randy @ 69, RANDY

Good on ya, Rachel!!! You are consistently excellent on Olbermann and a match for his wit. Can't wait to see you in the big time.

Keep up the pressure on Fox and Bill-O.

Randy @ 92:

John Edwards is an arrogant un-christian SOB

So, apparently was the Apostle Matthew, or some guy called Jesus:

Matthew 7. The Holy Bible: King James Version.

1, Judge not, that ye be not judged.

As for Edwards, he's a flawed human being, unlike you, who is a "Christian" Without Compassion.

EDWARDS: On His Faith Journey

"...My faith has been enormous to me in my personal life and of course my personal life is a big impact on my political life. I have had an interesting faith journey over the course of my life. I was born and raised in the Southern Baptist church, I was baptized in the Southern Baptist Church and then later in life joined the Methodist church and like a lot of people, when I was in my college years, and I went to law school and became a lawyer and was raising my young family I moved away somewhat from my faith. And then I lost a son in 1996 and my faith came roaring back and it played an enormous role in my ability to get through that period. It stayed with me and has been enormously important.

I don't need Sissyboy John Edwards telling me to feel guilty about polluting the environment and about the fact that there are people in poverty.

I cherish my freedom to be prosperous and to drive the car I want. It's not my fault there are homeless people out there. Edwards has no business trying to make me and others feel guilty about these things.

So, I assume you aren't a Christian. If you were, you would know that it is YOUR and MY duty to look after the poor as if they were Christ himself. Of course, Judaism, Islam, and most other world religions profess that it is our duty to take care of the poor. You sound very much like a selfish, self-centered, mean-spirited person. I wonder have you ever read "A Christmas Carol." Perhaps we should just start calling you Scrooge.

I am a Christian.

As such, I believe that our rights come from our creator, NOT FROM GOVERNMENT. We don't need people like John Edwards telling us how to live our lives, how much carbon dioxide we should emit, . . .

John Edwards is an arrogant un-christian SOB who thinks that he has all the solutions, and he knows just how to redistribute wealth and control our lives so that there will be no poverty.

Just compare the uplifting message in Huckabee's commercial with the cynical depressing message in Edward's commercial. (BTW, I'm voting for Ron Paul.)

Don't know who your "creator" is but looks like he/she/it is cranking our some seriously defective merchandise.

In reality you are just one of those opinionated, arrogant hypocrites that doesn't want to be told what to do and won't sacrifice one thing for the benefit of society. And then you have the balls to boast how "Christian" you are, you insecure twerp.

Feel free to humble yourself and read your Bible for once instead of boasting how holy and righteous you are. You're just a self centered ass with an attitude problem.

As a fellow atheist and recovering Catholic, I remember 2 things from my Catholic school education: He who exalts himself will be humbled; he who humbles himself will be exalted; and, Whatsoever you do to the least of my brothers, lest you do unto me. Translation of both-What goes around, comes around.

as the old giftgiving adage...

someone needs to give tucker a new a$$hole for christmas for his original has completely taken over his personality and is overworked

Tucker's 'truth' about homeless people is wrong, akin to Reagan's 'Welfare Queen' lie.. 40something% of those experiencing homelessness during the course of a year are children.. some people who are homeless do have mental health and substance abuse problems and many of those problems occurred as a result of the trauma of homelessness- but in neither case should we ignore their plight .. most people who are homeless go unnoticed because they avoid being identified.. this economy depends on 20% or so of the workers being paid wages that are unlivable, most of the succor for poor people come from other poor people.. I don't know of anyone truly living up to the principles of love and compassion, I have empty rooms and I know there are people in my own neighborhood who need them, I salve my conscious by telling myself I work for social justice..

Tucker's insulting smug entitled attitude fits sweetly with Friedman's ilk, he shocks with callousness then tortures our hearts.. he probably claims to be Christian, I don't, I'm more Hindu and I thank the Lord that someone in John Edward's position is saying these things.

So finally one of the msm idiot is attacking another candidate besides hillary. Remember how he crossed his legs saying he was afraid clinton would castrate him if she won ( like he has any balls ). But you won't see any complains about it in the likes of daily kos (chris matthew's baby brother). I wish these idiots would be accountable for their hateful remarks that have alot of influence on the outcome of this election. Make no mistake obama is their darling because they simply hate clinton. come november they will destroy him or any other democratic candidate.

Read dec. 19 Daily Howler- on the cruelty and unfairness of the clinton coverage and the double standards. If you're a democrat and don't care a rats ass because you support another dem candidate "beware because thats how they will treat your candidate".

Tucker did not attack the ad. That's a silly characterization.

I guess that Tucker wants cheery messages about the season of peace and joy. Let's celebrate the fact that Rupert Murdoch is now one quizzillion dollars richer. I suppose Tucker would have burned Charles Dickens and his Christmas Carol for reminding people about the poverty that existed while others were rich and stingy. We should all just go out and barbeque like our fearless leader while people go hungry without homes or healthcare or hope. Tucker, you are a sorry excuse for a human being. I hope that those three Christmas spirits visit you one night and make you see how sorry a human being you are.

[Deleted. Off topic-Sitemonitor]

Jeez, what an a**hole. Tucker, that is. Not John Edwards, whose ad seemed pretty uplifting to me. Is Tucker really such an insensitive jerk that he makes fun of someone who calls upon our better nature to help one another, especially the most downtrodden and vulnerable?

I generally consider most modern right wingers to be little more than social Darwinists, but you'd think they'd at least be Machiavellian enough to hide it instead of proudly parading it for all to see.

Tucker's a swanson foods heir and doesn't care if people are homeless

Tucker is a jerk-off, plain and simple. How do nasty little twits like him find work anywhere?

if i could live long enough my goual in life would be to be able to piss on assholes like cheny bush and tuckers graves!

Timetheos @ 14:

Very few people seem to remember that FDR came from wealth, and yet did more to help the poor than about any other President.

When people bitch about Edward's wealth, remind them of FDR.

Also remember that Edwards wasn't always rich. He came from poverty and
a working class backround. He's one of the few that doesn't forget where he
came from. Tucker was born to privilege and has led a pampered life and he
could care less about anyone especially the poor or the troops.

Mike Malloy use to call Tucker a little "Bow Tie Bastard". He couldn't change the bastard part so he changed his tie! :-)

xoites defends Constitution @ 8:

I am this close to an annurism. Even as an Athiest i know what Christmas is supposed to be about: the Birth of Christ who's parents were refugees and could find no room in the Inn. Homeless they went to a manger where Mary gave birt to Jesus who was kept warm by the breath of animals. Homeless? Yes.

So this Christmas when celebrating the birth of your Saviour please try not to let the idea that people are homeless. Might spoil the fun.

Fuck you, Tucker.

I'm with you. I am a Secular Humanist who at least knows what the Xmas story is about, unlike Fucker Carlson. How can we godless heathens know more about their religious tenets and stories than they do? I think it's the fact that their traditions are passed down orally, since so few of the Fundies know how to read.

As a 61 year old veteran I find this young twerp Carlsons' frat boy attitude uncioncionable.
This sorry excuse for a man who never served anyone but himself deserves no forum for his idiocy.

This kid is a pompous ass.

Not that Tucker would get it but his little jibe at the size of Edwards' house (he didn't have time to mention the 'do) reminded me of a Lenny Bruce routine about Christ coming back to earth and arriving in NYC. Christ can't understand why St. Pat's isn't filled with the homeless, it's warm and clean and dry.
Of course, Lenny Bruce was not only much funnier, he would likely have punched Tucker in the nose. i hate being reminded that he has a microphone

Well so do I asshole except I believe that we need somebody like Edwards and I'm voting for him because like him I have had enough. Also I don't need to wear my life on my sleeve to make me feel good like you I have what I have and feel damn lucky. I need my SUV. I actually put it in 4WD to get out my driveway (sounds silly doesn't it?). The republicans have made it almost impossible to live on $100,000 a year. I know people who make $20,000 don't want to hear it and I really understand. I could could go on and on but Mr. Randy@68 is a fucktard.

You said it!!!

Edwards is every bit as phony and disingenuous as Mitt Romney.

Eff off, bozo the troll

Oh yeah, and STFU while you're at it!

Carlson, who is a trust fund jerk-off, is mocking someone else for being rich? What a turd. And where's the Little Lord Fauntleroy bow tie?

BMcGarth @ 47:

Look Tucker is repulsive & should not have a TV show but Edwards seems very calculating also.This is the guy who voted for the Iraq war because he was advised to vote for it.All because he wanted to be Prez just disgusting really.He now states he wanted to contest the Ohio election results of 2004 but Kerry did not want to.See folks there is something wrong with electing someone to the Prez who has never made a mistake on his own.Notice how he blames others for his wrongs.Is this what we want in a Prez ?We already have Bush blaming others for his f...ups.

Edwards' wanting to contest the Ohio election results IS a matter of public record. Kerry being "first chair" in the race, declined.

That whole video was an excellent exhibit of two opposing parties taking everything, including themselves, way too seriously.

I think in order to avoid nips and pecks about political motivations for sending completely out of the ordinary feel-good, subtle anti-other-guy messages to the public, one might just not want to do it. John Edwards doing stuff like that is about as nauseating as watching Mike Huckabee do it. Some people should just understand their position in a situation and agree that there's no way they can come off as natural and ever-lasting when they put out stuff like this in the middle of a thunderous presidential election.

Does anyone have an e-mail address for MSNBC. Instead of complaining about the little tuck, I'd like to let MSNBC know what I think of him and tell them to get him off the air. Enough is enough.

Tucker's put on a few pounds...must be that steady diet of crow...

You were right, I couldn't stomach the Tucker clip, but the John Edwards ad was beautiful. What kind of sick F#$k would ridicule that ad?

.

How arrogantly ignorant of Phucker Carlson.

One out four homeless are vets because they came home from war suffering from PTSD(a mental disorder) and turn to drugs for the mental escape(addiction) that their PTSD caused. They fit his argument TO A "T" yet they aren't good enough to support?

Just like the right to life argument stops at birth for these people, I guess the right to support the troops ends at poverty and homeless.

.

.

I guess floating crosses or making our Good Lord into our Founding Fathers isn't political?

Sorry that thinking about homeless veterans at Christmas time is a "downer" for you Tucker. What should his Christmas message be? "Get out there and shop!" "Forget all of the world's problems and get your wife that blood diamond she has always wanted."

John Edwards talking about homeless veterans makes you want to throw up. Do you know what makes me want to throw up Tucker? Seeing someone who served this country eating out of a garbage can at Christmas.

this guy is so sick. he should be off the air.

Tucker, Born with a silver spoon in his ass.

lolrimg

i did not even know who this a-hole is until you mentioned him here
ya i don't watch msnbc
so here you find out he is indeed born with a silver spoon in ....

and he was "accused of raping a woman"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tucker_Carlson

After watching I went immediately to msnbc.com to try to send an email that this dickhead should have been pulled off the air long ago, and I find that the sad cover story about an Iraq war vet who just killed himself. Makes me want to punch Tucker in the mouth.

I don't think republican hate poor people, they made so many of them!
