Look what Tucker did for us on YouTube

[Danny]

I think we need to get a grip.

Why do we seem to think it's Tucker's job to go around promoting Ron Paul? He's done more than we could hope for by putting RP on show once a week, but he is not a "supporter" like us and it's insane to expect him to be. His job is to discuss politics and the news, and it would not be appropriate for him to publicly support a candidate.

He was on Maher to promote his MSNBC show, not Ron Paul. I believe that he was telling the truth, at least the truth as he sees it. Will it hurt Ron? I doubt it, but who knows.

If it does hurt Ron then we're in trouble. You just know that if we keep gaining steam the attack ads are going to be a lot worse than what Tucker said, and they're going to be targeted right for Iowa and NH voters.

That right there is the worst mistake anyone can make. If you guys think Ron Paul is a gadfly just wait until you piss off Tucker Carlson. He may ignore Paul completely.

 

[CMoore]

All right. I just watched the clip and I have to wonder if any of you all understand the concept of "irony". This was a great clip and both Maher and Carlson spoke well of Ron Paul. Carlson is just exasperated about stuff. He is right when he says that people don't want to be responsible for themselves. That is what we are going to have to sell, personal responsibility. Fortunately for us, we are much more likely to actually get out and VOTE than people who want to be taken care of. They tend to be a passive lot. Remember at NO time were a majority of the colonists in favor on independence from Britain.

He's like an emo kid who found out their favorite underground band became #1 in the charts and saying "U DONT EVEN KNOW THEM! ITS JUST A FAD TO U! IVE BEEN SUPPORTING THEM SINCE THEY WERE CREATED! U POSERS!"

Give that man his Internet.

just be respectful and resolute when you right tucker

tucker, tucker, tucker, you mother f--ker, f--ker.....ok, ok, tucker had a bad day going into the taping of the show. i just watched the full-show sunday nite replay. tucker was a putz. he was needlessly controversial thru out the show. needlessly belittling peeps of whatever stripes to get over the infatuation with RP. i mean, consider tucker's additional comments about the u.s. huddling with the putin crowd in moscow recently as u.s. officials advised them not to get excited about us moving a missile defense system closer to the russian border. tucker supported the notion that we have that right. duh. we do?

tucker did rp absolutely no favor. he indeed belittled the support for rp, from which ever quarter. tucker deserves what he gets in his email inbox. i will do it with style and respect. but he will know he is indeed, a msm @ss-wipe.

Hahaha!

Tucker Carlson is a nobody. I could care less if Ron Paul ever goes on Tucker's show again. I'm pissed that Tucker is turning off media who is turned on to Dr. Paul, and are ACTUALLY influential. If Tucker has something to say about Dr. Paul, he should stop acting like a fan-boy who doesn't want everyone else to like the same things he likes, and START TALKING ABOUT LIBERTY.

Tucker talks with a forked tongue. Bashing Paul's message and calling him a radical does NOT help the cause.

uuuuh yeaaaaah. A nobody with 500,000 viewers. Just calm down. Tucker is not going to be disrespecting Paul. As painful as it was what he said was the truth regardless of his motivation for saying it. Look around you. Have you forgotten the world we're living in?

Here is Jon Stewart on cross fire with Tucker.

I had to google it to see it since it was referenced so much in this thread.

I use to want Jon Stewart for President. Now I want him for Pauls VP.

 

[ThePieSwindler]

i didnt really see anything wrong with what tucker said... i think this is being taken way out of proportion. Please dont send him hate mail...

 

[lonestarguy]

ooh tucker, it's on now, pal

tucker purposely belittled a group of voters who would turn out in droves if RP is on the presidential ballot. i don't give a tinker's damn if someone likes RP for whatever reason. on maher's show, tucker just blurts and spews out bullshit on national television, albeit premium cable tv, about a voter segment that may indeed be substantially leaning toward RP. like nora odonnell two weeks prior, tucker turns into a penny ante sock puppet and belittles both the candidacy and insults the notions of certain voters. and we're supposed to let tucker get away with it. so i say, i claim my liberty. fuck tucker and the mind numbing, brain washing, death producing bastards at GE who provide his pay check.

Yeah, Let's spam Tucker and DEMAND that he never has Ron Paul on the air again. That will teach him.

Why stop there? Take no prisoners. Let's get RP completely out of the reach of MSM. We don't agree with MSN. We don't like MSM. And we sure as hell don't need MSM. No more RP appearances any time or anywhere!

 

[dukker]

Tucker's comments were the most intelligent thing I've heard in a long time.
To me, Tucker was as genuine and honest as Ron Paul. Tucker is a true conservative, like Paul - watch all his interviews.

I also happen to agree with what he said. Have you seen the first interview of Maher with Paul? Maher couldn't agree with anything Paul was saying. Then he watches the GOP debate where Paul is the only anti-war candidate and boom! New hero. Maher is not a true Paul supporter. Paul's principles extend way beyond what a lot of liberals think is good. Tucker was the only one with the balls and intelligence to say it.

Tucker for president.

 

[Adamsa]

Tucker loves Ron, he is just a strange man.

 

[peruvianRP]

He was not bashing Ron Paul. All he say stop pretending to love Ron Paul. LIberals may think they love ron paul because he is against the war but in social issues they would not like him.

That is it. If you are a liberal, don't pretend to love Ron Paul.

 

[BillyDkid]

You don't think they're going to see the title of the clip:

"TUCKER CARLSON *CAN WE ALL STOP PRETENDING TO LOVE RON PAUL*"???

Or based on the title be looking for Tucker Carlson, as described, to interrupt everyone and say, "CAN WE ALL STOP PRETENDING TO LOVE RON PAUL?"

And then proceed to belittle his candidacy and misrepresent his positions?

Stop with the ridiculous rationalizations. Tucker is a schmuck and he is creating damaging negative press for us, for no reason whatsoever, other than to say "ME ME ME" as voice his whiney little opinion.

I agree with you. Although I do appreciate the fact that Tucker has given Ron Paul a lot of air time, I think his comments have hurt us. And, in fact, it is not true that "liberals" would hate RP if they knew what he stands for. Some would, but many would not. Liberty is popular with the vast majority of people. Even "liberals" and many former "neo-cons" can recognize integrity and honesty when they see it and they respond to it.

 

[steph3n]

tucker was showing to all on TV exactly what happens on this forum daily.
libertarians kill each other with selfish backbiting and since it is all about them(him) they can not bind together for a common good, because the common good is not good for them, because it means they have to hold their tongue.

Tucker was not using a mirror, he WAS the mirror, that is exactly what we look like.

GO TUCKER GO! Great job!

Thats exactly what I said when it happened.
