Tucker Carlson Asks Mike Stark Why George Allen Spitting On His Wife Is Relevant
Because it's assault, idiot!!!


If I spit on someone and there's witnesses I can be arrested... Most likely I will have my ass beat though...

1. Because now everyone in Va. knows that Allen has been divorced
A great many did not know that.

22. Has she come forward yet to explain in detail how
gay marriage ruined her own marriage?

'Cause, you know, that's obviously what the problem was.

26. Looked up Anne Waddell:
Allen's former wife, Anne Waddell, who lives in California, said that she and Allen divorced more than 22 years ago, and that because it was a personal matter they sealed the divorce records. She issued a statement calling Stark's question "a baseless, cheap shot."

According to a news release from Allen's campaign, the incident began when Stark pushed an Allen staffer. "Later, volunteers restrained him and asked to leave the building when he approached the senator a second time, asking inappropriate questions," the release said.

3. Can it get ANY more bizarre?!?!
Edited on Thu Nov-02-06 04:53 PM by OhioBlues
An elected official spitting on someone he's supposed to love and we're to trust he has perfect strangers best interests at heart! I'm alternating between being speechless and laughing at the absurdity of that statement.




edit: spelling

6. Would you want a Senator who spits on women?
It is indeed a character indicator.

9. I've been telling everyone I run into that there is 'speculation'
that he beat his first wife and that based on his sister's tell-all book, it isn't hard to believe.

18. He's apparently a serial spitter.
http://americablog.blogspot.com/2006/10/2008-presidential-contender-once-spit.html

Allen is a renowned spitter. A former reporter posted a diary at DailyKos based on a column she wrote for a paper in Virginia:

I stepped near the governor and smiled, told him my name and that I wrote for the local newspaper. Then I asked him a softball question, what some reporters call a "set-up."

"Does Southwest Virginia need these jobs?" I asked.

He stopped and looked straight at me. He had to look down at me, because he stood so tall in those cowboy boots. I thought I spotted a twinkle in his eye, and for a moment, I suspected he might give a humorous, light-hearted answer. Then he leaned forward and looked all the way down at the pavement. I figured he was planning a perfectly crafted answer to my question. I put pen to paper, ready to take it down. His lips puckered as if he might speak.

Then, the Governor of the Commonwealth of Virginia gathered up a glob of tobacco-laced saliva. He used his lips to squirt it out, as if he had practiced. The spit landed just at the tip of my shoe. He grinned, but didn't say a word. Then he walked into the building.

14. Has Macaca been tested for any infectious diseases or rabies?
That would make spitting a felony, I'd think.

And Tucker, as your buddy Dick Cheney would say, "go fuck yourself". What a Republican stooge.

27. Remember, this man was talking about running for prez
Hey Tucker, just read his sister's book and do a little background check and ask yourself if he's presidential material. It's very relevant!

28. two days ago Tucker said if kerry would apologize it would be over.
and everyone would drop it, but he is still harping on it. I can't stand the little shit. If I ever meet him on the street I am punching him in the nuts.

30. Seems to be pretty relevant to Allen
Or else his goons wouldn't have reacted like that.

Maybe a judge should decide whether this is 'relevant' or not.
