Conservative Commentator: Vick should have been executed

What a douche. I'm as conservative as they come, but our legal system was founded on a rehabilitational concept. Outside of murder and sexual misconduct, once you've done your time, you've done your time. As the article says, this was just a backhanded slap at the President, who once again is seen to have stuck his nose where it doesn't belong. In THIS case, however, the President's doings is incidental at best to the over-the-top nature of the attacker.

SH, it took a while, but I completely agree with ya.

I was watching when he said this. It was definitely a "did he just say that?" moments. Mr. Tucker is a very annoying individual

Actually, he sounds more like a flaming animal rights ecomisanthrope than a right-wing jerk.

You're a conservative, so you're a douche, too. Fuck off.

Too bad. The controversy will probably generate the best ratings Tucker Carlson has ever had.

He was right about one thing, though: Obama should probably have stayed out of this one.

[kalm]

Tucker Carlson is reasonable compared with 95% of the conk pundits currently out there.

You mean two people will actually watch him?

Carlson is a clown, and he is the one who should have stayed out of this. All he is doing is potentially helping Obama.

The Obama - Vick issue was a non-story. Who cares what Obama thinks of the Eagles and Michael Vick? Nobody. But there are a lot of people who care if a white jackass suggests that a black man should be executed.

My guess is that this whole thing will blow over, but Carlsons actions certainly did not hurt Obama and they might even help.

I hate both Vick and Carlson.

Vick is a typical spoiled athletic thug who would probably be a dealer or dead by now if he didn't play football.

Carlson is a typical racist East Coast silver spoon elitist honky that litter the liberal arts colleges of the Northeast.

That said, do you really believe Vick should have been executed?

Tucker is not a clown, but the elitist label is probably justified. How else to explain his faux pas?

Despite his shortcomings, I am sure that Carlson beat whatever garbage was on MSNBC. He probably did not help Obama, but Obama's overt and subtle race baiting will probably be effective among his base supporters.

You're just saying that because of the bow tie. Carlson is an idiot, but because he wears a bow tie people listen to him.

It's like that cartoon where the dog wears a bow tie and we're supposed to believe that he built a time machine.

So your argument is that he's not a clown because he beat garbage?

No. Tucker's comment was worse than clownish.

However, in my opinion, the comment was atypical, and on balance, Tucker Carlson is not a clown.

The ratings comment was in response to your estimate that Carlson had two viewers.

Tucker Carlson: better than garbage!


I've tried to like the guy, but I can't. He just doesn't get it (look at the Jon Stewart appearance on Crossfire as an example). The Obama/Vick thing is the latest example, he's reached the point where he'll say anything for ratings. Other than over the top idiotic statements he is irrelevant

He wears a bow tie and his name is Tucker?. The school yard must have been awful.......

Most accurate, astute post of this thread. I bet that guy wore his ass for a hat on a regular basis.

Oh thank god. Does this mean I can disregard George Will too?

[JoltinJoe]

Carlson said. “I think the president should be quiet on this one.”

.. the irony that he fails to abide by his own advice.
