I really don’t understand my friend Tucker Carlson. He owns the website The Daily Caller and it currently has on its front page the most vile story — referring to a sex act with Governor Sarah Palin as a “womb shifter.” It is even the headline. Do you know what that means? Figure it out It is really vile. It is not just smut…this is violence against women.
The “womb shifter” reference reported in the story is only the tip of the ice berg in terms of the vile nature of the posting. I am sparing you the details. To show you how bad it is, however, I have put a screen grab up of the front page reference on Tucker’s website. (I am deliberately not putting the link up since I am not going to help Tucker be a pig…he apparently can do it all himself without my help.)
I keep asking myself, why would Tucker allow this to be posted on his website? I am suspicous his website is not doing well and this is one quick last breath to create buzz to keep it afloat. I wish Tucker had not allowed this to be posted on a site associated with his name because Tucker and I have been friends (and even colleagues) for years. I have always liked Tucker and I assume you can tell that when I introduce him and greet him on air.
I don’t like it when I see that my friends do disgraceful things – but we need to start calling out even our friends to stop this. Tucker has daughters and a wife and I would think he in particular would not want to be a purveyer of smut (and this is actually more, this is violence against women)

Really? Do you not remember Carlton’s milfistan tweet about Palin and his non-apology apology after he got slammed for it?
No gentleman ever refers to any woman as such in private or public.
Send a comment to Tucker via Twitter-—>@dailycaller
Also send appropriate remark to #attackwatch @dailycaller
Others may see tweet and retweet it.
I have always had the utmost respect for Greta, I just wish she would leave Scientology and come to know Christ.

No, I don’t remember that - meaning it apparently escaped me at the time. I know there was quite a bit of milfistan type comments all over the place and still are among certain circles, but I tend to ignore that low brow stuff. But that does put this episode in perspective somewhat.
Don’t forget his sister Margaret.....(I believe she’s sister - I know they’re related. Of course, some people think Margaret Carlson is actually Michael Kinsley in drag, but that’s another thread.......)
Hey Greta, are you saying you did not know about your friend Carlson’s MILF Palin Joke? Frankly, I think you are full of crap and trying to CYA.

BS, Carlson has made MILF jokes about Palin before, he is a vile creature, AKA a SOB.

I stand corrected.
BUT - and this is very important - is she really Michael Kinsley in drag?
It's been slowly crumbling for decades, and it scares them -- that it's no longer sufficient that you have an "Establishment" pedigree, come from "old money", and know all the right people -- that now you actually have to be able to deliver. That upstarts from the middle class can create new businesses that might render obsolete the business models of all the places that Daddy invested the trust fund $$$.
There is no Democrat Party or Republican Party. There is the Establishment (with fingers in pies on the Left and Right) and the rest of us.
This is why DC comes out with ever more shelves of regulations -- so that people who know people who can issue waivers can have a competitive advantage. This is why the public school system is such crap -- so that it is unable to produce people who can compete with graduates of the elite private schools. Because the children of the Elites are no smarter than you and I, so they need some other way to sustain their advantage.
I assume you have a list of acceptable folks who have NOT rolled their eyes at Palin?
Psychologist Alfred Adler was a peer of Freud’s and developed the concept of the “inferiority complex.” Unlike Freud, who stressed one’s sexual instincts as the primary motivator behind human personality, Adler stressed the striving for success, superiority, and social status.
Obviously, both made great points—but I feel that Adler’s theories are more powerful.
Consider Mary Matalin, an alleged "key Republican strategist" during the 1980's and 90's, who served as deputy campaign manager for Bush the Elder's 1992 run.
Then in 1993 she marries James Carville, who she'd presumably been dating while working on Bush's campaign.
I remember lots of people going "WTF?", but it just illustrated one thing: Mary was performing a role. Likely, so was Carville. They don't necessarily believe their lines any more than any actor does.
The same is probably true of Ann Coulter. She has a persona (conservative firebrand) which makes money for her. Bill Maher has his own persona which makes money for him. What they truly believe in (if anything) is unknown.
I listened to the interview with Mike Tyson at DC. I’m mystified why the guy still walks the earth.
I try so very hard not to be prejudiced but it is becoming harder and harder.
Lord please remove these evil thoughts from my head!!!
I can’t tell you you’re wrong because I too feel that impulse!
Remember what the gays did to Anita Bryant?
I doubt if Sarah will ever forget either. They've already blown access for, like, forever.
