Tucker Carlson's Daily Caller again calls Rachel Maddow a man

February 03, 2010 5:52 pm ET by Jamison Foser

Last month, Tucker Carlson's Daily Caller web site launched with a column by The Weekly Standard's Matt Labash in which Labash referred to MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow as a man.  Hilarious, right?

If you thought that was just a case of opening-day exuberance getting the best of the Daily Caller crew, think again.  It seems they still haven't stopped giggling over at Tucker's little playhouse, which today again calls Maddow a man. At the end of a "DC Trawler" entry featuring a series of photos of MSNBC's female journalists, the Daily Caller includes a picture of Maddow and a caption suggesting the photo doesn't belong with the others and referring to her as "man" and "dude":

Oh, by the way: earlier this week, The Daily Caller was admitted to the White House press pool.

      Well, at least it looks like LaBash is the most appropriately named dirtbag since Bernie Madoff. This strikes me as a tacit admission that he can't legitimately argue with anything she's actually said.

      Rachel is smarter than Tucker and his pet Troglodyte put together.

      That's why they feel so threatened by her that they must lash out like girly-men.

        Hell, the girliest, head-cockingest eye candy Fox anchor is more of a man than Tucker will ever be.

      It's sad that Tucker will never suffer the same accusations...

      Men who are ACTUALLY straight (heterosexual) are not afraid of Lesbians. Tucker (OMG, what a Gay Name!) is so afraid of Rachel; hmmmmmm.

        I think Jon Stewart was right that day on Crossfire . . . I think he nailed Tucker Carlson.

      Gay baiting Tucker Carlson isn't the most progressive response to someone calling Rachel Maddow a man.

      Regarding the post, itself--obvious 'shop job of Norah O'Donnell is obvious?

      And did it have any point, other than an obvious ploy to get a whole bunch of pictures (and video) of women onto the same blog post?

      Is it fair to say that the Daily Caller creeps me out, hardcore?

      I suspect he chews his fingers bloody every time he checks the ratings for her show. I suspect he checks the ratings every day. Several times.

      When you can't argue the facts, when your opponent is smarter than you, and when you know that you can never hope to be half the person your opponent is... resort to 5th Grade taunts.

      Way to go, Tucker.

      There are some photos where you really wouldn't know. But in others where she dresses herself up, she's actually eye candy.

      The immaturity from the fright-wingers never ceases to amaze me. Their motto: Since we can't win the dialogue, call names. That's where 8 years of "W" and 14 years of "Fair & Balanced" BS have taken us. You can just see these little boys giggling away as they insinuate Rachel is a man. She's gay and has short hair so we'll call her a man...hehehe. Clowns. Furthermore, how did this group of propagandists get press credentials when Bill Press was turned down? He had to become an "aid" to Bernie Sanders! He was blocked by Fox and another media source.

      Oh, and I guess all those people saying the same thing about Ann Coulter the last 10 years are blameless? I'm not one to excuse bad behavior by pointing out others have done the same thing; I'm just declaring shenanigans on the hypocrisy here.
