That was odd
So I'm watching the end of Crossfire. This what I hear:

A) Are you saying we shouldn't re-think our policies in the Muslim world? They don't just hate us because we have a democratic society.

B) No, we should be thinking about how we have to go and kill bin Laden for 9-11.

Who said what you ask?

Well, in the reality that seemed to flip within an hour, Tucker Carlson said that we need to re-think our foreign policy. Paul Begala, in his militaristic ways, said that we just have to kill him.

Who...what...but...he...with the...and the...but...but...he...what?

5. Usually I can't watch the affected little twerp
but one Sunday on PBS his show did a truly fascinating segment on obesity and the industry around it.

He aint all bad, but you have to sieve a considerable amount of diarrhea to get to the diamond.

2. Don't worry. Tucker just meant US should kill more.

I imagine both sides will be making that argument in the coming days.

6. sorry, but this line just disturbs me
"Are you saying we shouldn't re-think our policies in the Muslim world? They don't just hate us because we have a democratic society."

Were Tucker Carlson and other people REALLY under the impression that we were only being attacked because we have a democracy? If so, that's sad, pathetic, and woefully ignorant of history.
