Tucker Carlson Uses Gay Stereotype To Insult David Brock

Posted by Priscilla -26.60pc on November 02, 2013 · Flag

In addition to being a poster child for white privilege and a famous "dick," Tucker Carlson is also an exemplar of Christian right wing homophobia. He has even bragged about assaulting a gay man. But his negative views about the LGBT community and LGBT civil rights are not a problem for Roger Ailes who provides a pulpit for Carlson's homophobia. In 2010, Carlson combined the patented Fox persecuted Christian meme with an attack on Harry Knox, an openly gay man who was appointed, by Pres. Obama, to serve on the Faith Based and Neighborhood Partnership Program. Carlson said that the lifting of DADT was a "joke." Recently, Tucker, who hates the Episcopal Church because it accepts gay marriage, claimed that the media treats gays better than Christians. And recently, in attacking Media Matters David Brock, the oh, so witty Carlson employed a gay stereotype and, in so doing, reminded us of why he is such a dick.

The no so Freudian slip occurred at party for the launch of Ann Coulter's new book, "Never Trust a Liberal Over Three – Especially A Republican." Carlson, in reacting to the news that David Brock was making an anti-Fox News commercial, told somebody from the conservative "The Blaze," that Brock was "embarrassing" himself. He continued: “It’s so embarrassing. Just sucking up– being a professional Hillary throne sniffer? It’s just, like, it’s pathetic. Worshipping her like Judy Garland? I just think it’s just awful.”

LGBT advocacy group, GLAAD, has issued the following statement:

"While making a personal attack on someone with whom you disagree is generally bad manners, particularly when that person is not in the room, Tucker took it one step further by invoking a common gay stereotype—worshipping Judy Garland—when trying to tear down David, who identifies as openly gay Mocking someone's LGBT identity when trying to counter the person's political beliefs seems, at best, an ineffective debate strategy and, at worst, outright bigotry and an attempt to belittle one's opponent. Tucker's comment was made public just days after Fox News argued that anti-bullying initiatives silence conservative opinions on the LGBT community."

I suspect Carlson would be quite offended if a liberal pundit publicly mocked a Republican's Christianity. But Carlson has no problem mocking David Brock's sexuality. If Roger Ailes throne sniffer Tucker Carlson thinks that he's anything other than a low life dick, he can keep on pretending.

Wake me when Carlson comes out. There’s no way a man can be this homophobic without being in denial.

Tucky can’t help himself. He’s the product of Daddy Dick’s poor raising. Tucky is just a boy inside an adult man’s body. It will take years before he becomes a real man.

NOTE TO TUCKY

Roger sends you his love. You remember Rog, don’t you boy.

Jane, most of the right-wing “Christians” prefer the “Cherry-Picked” Version of the Bible. That’s the version which allows them to quote Leviticus against LGBTs while ignoring the hundreds of other “abominations” that Leviticus mentions (like wearing clothes of more than 1 fiber or eating pork or giving false testimony). It’s also the same one that pretends that Jesus wasn’t really Jewish and doesn’t spend much time pondering why a single man would spend so much time hanging out with a bunch of other single men. It’s also the one that allows them to ignore a whole lot of Christ’s commands and teachings that don’t fit into their lifestyle and worldview (such as “easier for a camel to fit through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter Heaven” or “Blessed are the meek”).
