Tucker Carlson, Wash Journ June 22 2010

Tucker Carlson was guest on C Span Washington Journal in the 8:45 am slot. His performance was lackluster, jerky.
The last comment of his interview was a response to an email question:
Question: "Where do you think the US is headed?"
Carlson: Many people believe US is on the wrong track. In a few years we'll have debt that's greater than our GDP -- that's not a nation that's third world. Something will have to give -- Social Security and Medicare will have to be cut. And we've lost the willingness to take risks -- there's a kind of greyness about America. We're all going to die, so why not live a little more fully? We should be more like Israel.

Does C Span prepare its guests to mention Israel favorably? Has Carlson been on a trip to Israel, like my next door neighbor who came back from a trip to Israel hugely impressed, because Israel sent out representatives to overwhelm him with pro-Israelness. A love-bomb.
