Tough Luck for Tucker Tuckass

2004-10-19

Oh my God. Did you see John Stewart rip that Harvard-wannabe bow-tie dipshit Tucker Carlson a new asshole? It's the best. Television. Ever. Seriously. Never has anyone been more honest, and when he was supposed to be kissing ass? Oooooh, doggie.

First of all, you can watch the thirteen minutes of liberation on ifilms here. But if you don't have the time, patience or bandwidth to download, you can read the transcript here. He openly chastised them for being partisan and irresponsible, he mocked them for even trying to compare what they do with a news show on a comedy channel ("You're on CNN. The show that leads into me is puppets making crank phone calls."), and he begged them to listen.

You can break down the awesome development of the Carlson stomping in five quotes, I think.

5. "It doesn't pay well, but you can sleep at night."
--In response to a job comparison of Crossfire and Daily Show folks.

4. "Yeah, but WE have civilized discource."
--In response to years of Crossfire yelling.

3. "You have a responsibility to public discourse and you fail miserably."
--In response to years of Crossfire bullshit.

2. "I'm not gonna be your monkey."
--In response to their requests that he be funny instead of smart.

1. "You're as big a dick on your show as you are on any show."
--In response to Tucker's suggestion that Stewart isn't being as funny on Crossfire as he usually is on The Daily Show

Come now, children, let's all point and laugh! Jon Stewart for president 2008!
