Tucker Carlson Reported Obama Video In 2007 On MSNBC, Slammed Politicization Of ‘Unjustifiable’ Crim

Source: mediaite.com

Tonight, the Drudge Report, Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson seized on an unedited video of a speech President Obama gave in 2007, criticizing it for being “racially charged” — and also criticizing the media for omitting what they deemed the most controversial comments in the reporting at the time of the speech.

“This hasn’t been reported,” he said. “I know because I reported it the first time.”

Carlson’s 2007 report below:

And to Florida after Hurricane Andrew WITHOUT demanding the 10% payment by those lcalities while insisiteng post-Katrina New Orleans still had to pony up 10% to get the rebuilding money.

They did not want to remind Americans about that just before the election, however, NOW they report it to say Obama is the racist?

It seems that these ignoramuses, et al, are so effing dumb. When will they learn and just give up? They only make themselves look worse, but I guess they have nothing to do. Hopefully they will all get fired after President Obama wins again. They don't need to cheat the taxpayers out of their money anyway since that is all they are doing. I wouldn't pay them a dime; they aren't worth a penny.

Do they really want people to watch that? It will probably just make Obama's poll numbers go up, and Romney look like even more of a Stepford Candidate in comparison!

Tucker Carlson, the King of the Dweebs, says "this hasn't been reported....I know because I reported it the first time."

Uh, Tuck? It was reported. Remember? Y'all tried to make it into a "controversy"? And, Mr. Obama disowned the Rev. Wright? Remember?

Anyway, we're now in 2012. Uh, time to let it go, Tuck. The "race-bait" won't work.

But, keep trying, Tuck. Who knows? Maybe you and Matt and Sean and the rest will find something/anything that'll stick.

Or, maybe just sit the heck down and shut up.

He used to be known as Bow-tie Boy when on 'Crossfire.' Now he's just known as the empty-headed little twit who was publicly humiliated on his own show by Jon Stewart.

Without a bow tie, little Carlson is nothing.

This is so pathetic I don't even know where to begin. Carlson is such a tool. Desperate ain't the word for it. It's just sad. If they weren't so responsible for their own downfall I might feel sorry for them. But I definitely don't.
