1. This is a repeat from last night...Franken is too nice and smarmy Carlson
is able to talk over the top of him and keep him from saying what he wants....Can't stand Carlson who is now pretending to be a reasonable, fair-minded conservative rather than the right wingnut he really is....

2. Franken seems to be carrying his own...
in the first segment. It surprosed me that Carlson is being so quiet. Guess that all changes later.

I don't always catch this show on Sat night.

4. His mother's a liberal
Give him a break. And he's hardly a wingnut.

8. Watching him on Crossfire...to me he's a wingnut!
Edited on Sun Sep-28-03 06:29 PM by glarius
So his mother's a liberal...So what...he's not!
He's very slippery and always manages to slip in his little inuendos and lies...In my opinion he is a right wing zealot....I heard him yesterday morning on the radio ranting on about how the Democrats and liberals are all out of control because of their hatred of Bush and he himself is so reasonable and NEVER LIES....I really can't stand the man...

7. I'm watching this too...
must be some kind of re-run; but in any case, it is pretty good so far. Franken really has a 'thing' for O'Reilly, and just finished talking abouot the law suit....
So..this gets a little wilder in a few? Hmmmmmight just stick with it.

After all it was worth watching Wolfowitz last night, that was wild.

10. Oh, jeez, Wolfowitz....
Him talking about his needing to have the right to free speech -after the way the admnistration crafted a campaign against dissenters. I'm sure he left that "interview" and poured himself 3 fingers of something strong. Hey, Wolfie, I gotcha finger right here.

17. Judge Judy would have told Tucker to stop squirming
and look her in the eye when he's talking. She thinks people who can't look you in the eye are lying, and I think in this case, she's right! :D

It's tough to listen to TC because I think there is occasionally an element of truth in what he's saying, but it is so difficult to listen to all the other stuff that he's convinced himself is equally accurate about his perceptions in order to find that one little bit that makes sense. Or maybe I'm just giving him a break because of his baby face. :)

18. what's infuriating about TC is that he's complaining about
exactly the same thing that Franken's book is addressing: i.e. that extreme partisanship makes liars out of people.

Yet he was attacking Franken for being a partisan liar? When Franken's book is literally about the fact that the right wing media has become a bunch of partisan liars?

He's just being a right wing media whore, doing his job for the right-wing. I found it disgusting.

his fucking baby-face lets him get away with it
