Tucker Carlson is a self-described libertarian who mentioned more than once this morning that in he has in the past supported fellow libertarian Ron Paul for president. Little wonder, then, that Carlson takes a live-and-let-love attitude toward the escort-service scandal that is threatening to rock Washington.
For those who have not been following the case, Deborah Jeane Palfrey, the so-called "DC Madam," owner of an escort agency, turned her clients' phone numbers over to ABC. On tomorrow's "20/20," ABC is apparently planning to disclose the names of some of those clients, who are reported to include Bush administration officials, prominent lobbyists, CEOs and the head of a conservative think tank.To discuss the ethical issues involved, Carlson had as guests on the early-morning version of his show today [MSNBC has shaken up its lineup today to provide all-day pre-game coverage of tonight's GOP debate] the owner of the legal-in-Nevada Moonlight Bunny Ranch, Dennis Huf, and two of his employees, Audrey and Brooke.
The highlight of the segment was this exchange between Carlson and the two women.
View video here.
MSNBC HOST TUCKER CARLSON: Maybe Audrey and Brooke can speak to this. The temptation must be if someone famous comes in, and you see that famous person naked, the temptation must be to tell all your friends about it. It's tempting, isn't it?Then came the line of the day.
BUNNY RANCH WORKER BROOKE TAYLOR: No, it's exactly the opposite. I enjoy telling people that I've been with someone they might be interested in knowing but not telling them. It's fun.
CARLSON: Hmm!
BUNNY RANCH WORKER AUDREY: I think every business has a code of ethics and we certainly do as well.Insert joke about ethics, DC bigwigs and Audrey's business here.
Precisely my point. Palfrey is helping birth a scandal ;-)
The day after the campfire, the embers are still glowing............
Mid-wifery?.....and just how do you suppose the woman got into the need for a midwife in the first place?.....
I think the point of the New York Post story was that the “campfire” with Thompson was largely wishful thinking by Carlson.
Most news shows are mighty examples of that oldest profession...
oh come on.. haven’t you figgured it out? there’s prolly only 3 or four dems on the list to begin with.
the madame only supplies educated women. what dem wants an educated woman to bang?
Once any Dem or liberal names become known, watch the lib media drop this story.
What gives ABC the right to be selective? Release them all, or release none.
Bottled water?
Hey, gotta protect them Dems.
The “Bunny Ranch” is LEGAL in the State of Nevada. So what’s the problem?
Or what educated woman would want a dem?
Doncha just love grass roots Capitalism?
(chuckle)
I’m there tuesdays and weekends.
But I’m already booked...sorry.
Benn there....
Done that....
Take the picture of the front of the “Bunny Ranch”, that is.
I could never afford the services of those girls.
So I guess you checked out the rates?
So what exactly is the motivation behind revealing any of the client list? Did the DC Madam decide she needed to create a controversy while quitting the business? There is some disconnect here for me.
Nice picture - can almost read the license plates...
