    Don’t care?  I just think it’s lol the amount of blame one person can get for everything wrong with the US.  It’s very hard to take serious.  Imagine some Magats blaming every problem we have with an entire party on Don Lemon or Maddow.  But of course, FF, that would never happen.  My party is the party of brilliant thinkers! Your hint should be that he was on cable news, not on the hill or in the WH.  Literally holds a single vote, just like you and me. 

    Who is blaming Tucker for everything wrong with the US?  No one?  Right, no one.  What's hard to take serious is you when you base your entire argument on an obvious lie.

    Those who are celebrating Tucker’s demise at FNC are misguided. He was being throttled there, and he will have options to actually increase his reach, should he choose to do so. I have a hard time thinking of anyone in the news arena - cable or broadcast network - who can move millions of viewers. Too many egomaniacs in the business fail to realize that they are easily replaced, and when they move, the needle barely budges. His monologues can be downright brilliant, and are themselves newsworthy. His long form interviews on Fox Nation make it obvious that he is not just a news reader. People who don’t realize this either never watch him or only see carefully edited clips.

    Tucker is very antiestablishment, and some of his harshest criticisms are reserved for RINOs and career bureaucrats. He’s done multi-night hit pieces on Republicans and Republican donors. There are reasons why the Lindsay Grahams and Mitt Romneys don’t dare go on his show. I am friends with two Senators (one a very good friend) who are to varying degrees establishment Republicans. I have asked each of them why I don’t ever see them sticking their necks out on lip service issues, and the very mention of Tucker Carlson makes them a bit squeamish.

    It’s pretty obvious that I am a bit of a Tucker fanboy. He’s the only one I watch with any regularity on FNC or Fox Nation. I already switched “cable” provider, not out of protest as much as not needing a package with Fox News. I’ve likewise non-renewed my Fox Nation subscription. Their news notifications will sit there right along with other news sources.

    Anyone who claims Tucker is antiestablishment is either a troll or a moronic rube.  Which one are you?

  3. What is the trade value for a 1L Weller 12--bottles, not money?  I'm probably going to keep it, but it's one of the few bourbons from the latest grand reserve raffle that I already have, so I'd consider trading for something I've never had.  

  4. Judging by the lineup, Lampard is going with the creative strategy of . . . giving up?  Playing a 3-5-2 with no true striker or wingers at home while down 2-0 in the Champions League KO rounds doesn't seem like a sound strategy for moving on.  WTF?

    Redemption Wheated, HH7, Weller SR, Dickel BiB, Bardstown Origin, Eagle Rare’s been everywhere, Buffalo Trace picks.

    Where are you seeing these?  I haven't seen ER10 on the shelf in over a year.

    Nice, that was a suffocating 2nd half.

    Really woulda liked a 3rd to feel better about going up to London next week.

    With La Liga lost, heavy rotation this Saturday in prep for Chelsea

    There's not much y'all have to do.  Just sit back on defense and we can't score.  Counter if you get the chance.  0-0 or 1-0 win to y'all and you get to play City.
