It's still a good mental picture: fingernail scratching, hair pulling, and purse swinging galore. I wouldn't be suprised if it was just a lovers spat. Cheers

Here are some transcripts:
STEWART: What you do is not honest. What you do is partisan hackery...
CARLSON: You had John Kerry on your show and you sniff his throne [by throwing him softball questions], and you're accusing us of partisan hackery?
STEWART: Absolutely...You're on CNN. The show that leads into me is puppets making crank phone calls....
CARLSON: ...There's no reason for you -- when you have this marvelous opportunity not to be the guy's butt boy, to go ahead and be his butt boy. Come on. It's embarrassing.
STEWART: You have a responsibility to the public discourse, and you fail miserably.
CARLSON: You need to get a job at journalism school, I think.
STEWART: You need to go to one.
CARLSON: I do think you're more fun on your show...
STEWART: ...You're as big a d**k on your show as you are on any show.

There is a transcript in this thread:
JON STEWART 'DAILY SHOW' IN SURPRISE AUDIENCE -- DROP
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/1248261/posts
CNN editors were busy this weekend cleaning up a transcript from Stewart's Friday appearance on CROSSFIRE. One CNN executive called Stewart's performace "belligerent."
During the live program, Stewart slammed host Tucker Carlson: "You're as big a dick on your show as you are on any show."
The awkward exchange came at the end of an 8 minute segment between Stewart, Carlson and co-host Paul Begala.
***
CARLSON: You had John Kerry on your show and you sniff his throne and you're accusing us of partisan hackery?
STEWART: Absolutely.
CARLSON: ...you have this marvelous opportunity not to be the guy's butt boy, to go ahead and be his butt boy. Come on. It's embarrassing.
STEWART: I was absolutely his butt boy. I was so far -- you would not believe what he ate two weeks ago.
STEWART: You know, the interesting thing I have is, you have a responsibility to the public discourse, and you fail miserably.
CARLSON: You need to get a job at a journalism school, I think.
STEWART: You need to go to one.
The thing that I want to say is, when you have people on for just knee-jerk, reactionary talk...
CARLSON: Wait. I thought you were going to be funny. Come on. Be funny.
STEWART: No. No. I'm not going to be your monkey.
BEGALA: Go ahead. Go ahead.
STEWART: I watch your show every day. And it kills me.
CARLSON: I can tell you love it.
STEWART: It's so -- oh, it's so painful to watch...
CARLSON: Is this really Jon Stewart? What is this, anyway?
STEWART: Yes, it's someone who watches your show and cannot take it anymore. I just can't.
CARLSON: What's it like to have dinner with you? It must be excruciating. Do you like lecture people like this or do you come over to their house and sit and lecture them; they're not doing the right thing, that they're missing their opportunities, evading their responsibilities?
CARLSON: I wouldn't want to eat with you, man. That's horrible.
STEWART: I know. And you won't.
***
Before appearing on CNN, Stewart blasted reporter and CROSSFIRE co-host Bob Novak.
"I would not have him on the show. I have standards," Stewart explained to the NEW YORKER's Ken Auletta. "I wouldn't do it. He shouldn't be on television. CNN should not have him on the air. He should not be amongst civilized people."

Carlson is cute. He sure is feisty. I thought John Stewart was joking, but clear to me that JS is an a$$hole.

I can't believe he's being serious. He sounds like Al Gore. What a drugged up spazz. JS is acting like he took a tranquilizer.

Stewart jumps the shark. Exactly. Kerry must have shown him their poll numbers, to make him wack out and show his colors so badly.
