Carlson is very unfamiliar with much of anything.
It has “pigs” in the name. A whole bay-full of them. To him, it sounds so welcoming. Like his workplace, even.
with apologies to all our supine friends who may have been offended by this comment

ETA: And sure there might also be a moral failing to act out of moral weakness or indolence in there, too, somewhere. 
In all fairness, I once advocated the invasion of Canada, but it had nothing to do with your Prime Minister. I was in favor of commandeering the music to your national anthem, which is objectively far superior to that of the United States. I apologize, I was driven by envy.
Using the tune from a drinking song has to be better than a funeral dirge, though, which far too many national anthems are in an attempt to be solemn and moving and shit.
We should be fine then. He can’t invade us if he doesn’t know where we are.
Yeah, well, look at the words to La Marseillaise. Holy fuck but is that nasty. We once has pacifists objecting to the military character of the To Anacreon in Heaven reworking, but La Marseillaise blow the US anthem out of the water on that count.
Speaking of Carlson. That mad cackling laugh of his gives me the absolute creeps. It makes me wonder if he’s as maniacal as he sounds or he practiced to sound that way. Either way is pretty damn disturbing.
[repressive tone] We weren’t talking about the lyrics. [/rt]
“I know Canada is above America so I went to the roof and looked up and up, and saw clouds and a sun but not Canada. I think they’re hiding.“
Interesting. This summer I’m going to be auditioning to sing (both*) national anthems, so you never know you might see me on TV someday depending on what sports you watch. Then you can decide which one I butcher more. 
In any case, I find the US anthem much more fun to sing.
- when you audition you have to sing both just in case it is a USA/Canada game.
Yeah but take the lyrics out of it and it’s a great song. Who doesn’t have tears in their eyes at that scene in Casablanca?
The Germans?
“As Time Goes By” is a real tearjerker.
THat made me laugh far too hard.
To be fair, quite a lot of them succeed in their attempt to be shit.
Honestly, I think he does that on purpose because that’s what his base (MAGATers, Tan the Conman adorers) not only want to hear, but want to do themselves when they see “the LIbs get pawned”. His network is not only an echo chamber, it’s a very limited sound effects machine inside an echo chamber.
I don’t disagree about the delight in pawnage, but the thing is, Carlson’s giggling cackle is so unmanly.
I don’t care how many hours he irradiates his genitals–that laugh is just plain girlish.
“Bro GOOP” doesn’t sound like a great (or attractive) selling point.
Well, the GOOP connection (to Gwyneth Paltrow’s New-Agey sales site) wasn’t asserted to be one made by right-wingers, but instead by the Daily Beast writer observing them.
I suppose the “New Age” theming was what inspired that particular theory.
In any case: Tucker Carlson still has a girly laugh.
Seriously, I haven’t heard anyone girl, woman, normal human, laugh like that. It’s maniacal. He needs to get away from that dick tanning thing, if it makes him cackle like that.
