3. He pops up occasionally
I see him on cnn here n there. He's still around. Don't think he wears a bow tie any more though.

4. He lost the bow tie and got pudgy
undoubtedly from stress eating. He's still trotted out as an "expert," in what I know not unless it's GOP propaganda.

He will undoubtedly try a next career as a writer, defending his life as a propaganda mouthpiece.

5. He rears his head now and then.
He has given up on the bow ties and now sports ties.

6. I've seen him occasionally on Morning Joe
Maybe once a month at the most.
He has now ditched the bow-tie.
I'm glad he's been ditched too.

8. He does not wear the bow ties anymore
I think it happened after some comedian basically told he how much of a dick he looked like wearing that stupid bow tie. Bow ties are for tuxedos and Chip n. Dale dancers. Those are the only two acceptable uses for bowties.

11. I think in the history of teevee, I have personally never witnessed anything
as satisfying. If there was cable news hall of shame Tucker would be a founding member and that clip would be permanently enshrined.

STEWART: You know what's interesting, though? You're as big a dick on your show as you are on any show.

10. JOn Stewart plunged a wodden stake into Tuckers neck, it penetrated his bowtie,
and effectively ended Tucker's inane CNN propaganda show.

15. He's around, I saw him spewing some crazy shit on Hardall last week..
talking about how McCain's "jokes" are endearing, and he didn't see anything wrong with the "that one" comment. His arms were flailing like an octopus. It was hilarious.

16. Tweety throws him a scrap or two on occasion.
Otherwise, he spends his remaining years getting his bow ties waxed.

19. Best thing I can say for him is
He was a great "straight guy" for Rachel Maddow to kick in the butt.
