Go ahead. Treat yourself. Read it again. It's so much fun...

Fucker Carlson Logic:

"People will say this has already been reported. Well, actually it hasn't been reported. And I know because I reported on it the first time."

Go on. Read it again.

"People will say this has already been reported. Well, actually it hasn't been reported. And I know because I reported on it the first time."

Ah, divine entertainment. The outraged fair and balanced right-wing mind at work.

These conservative morons have replaced him.

Who needs "a nickel ain't worth a dime anymore", or "It sure gets late early up here" when you've got:

"I've been on welfare and foodstamps, did I get help from anybody? No!"

and

"I don't want government run socialized medicine, and keep your hands off my Medicare!"

and

"I don't remember what I said, but whatever it was I stand by it."

And now THIS!

In other words, Drudge, Tucker Carlson, and Sean Hannity formed a strange sort of triumvirate to hype a five-year-old video that everyone already knew about, and which doesn't include anything interesting anyway.

Perhaps my favorite part of this silliness came when Carlson proudly boasted to Hannity on the air last night, "People will say this has already been reported. Well, actually, it hasn't been reported. And I know because I reported on it the first time."

Let that quote roll around in your head for a minute.



p.s. Hissyspit, that link is broken.

I wouldn't click on his site, he is trying to get attention to make a buck, with outrageous video fail.
He wants to be as lucky as Arrianna and sell for big bucks.

Stewart's show is getting recorded before the debates. So, I'm sure he sent Tucker a note saying:

"Thanks buddy, I owe you one! If not for you, all I'd have for tonight's show is the 'look at everybody trying to create low expectations for the debate' montage."
