Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

The prepster gets the big job

Drudge announces that Tucker replaces Kelly.  This will be fun, because he is all about making the smug and comfortable uncomfortable. Good circus.


Tucker is the quickest, brightest, slyest, and wittiest guy out there despite being a boyish prepster (St. George's).

I haven't watched the 6 pm PST / 9 pm EST slot since mid-2015. So glad Megyn is GONE. Now I can actually watch something of substance. Tucker Carlson has grown up considerably since his preppy, bow tie wearing days. Give the guy a break. I was much different 15 years ago than I am now.

Tucker is my generation, and I'm proud to have him showing his debate chops on tv. He tackles hard topics with very aggressive guests. Love it.

Can't wait to watch him. Also curious about what Martha's show will be about, as she is taking over Tucker's old spot.

Added bonus...he is a fly fisherman.

I watch very little TV except college football and am glad MeAgain is gone. I have seen him a couple of times and he looks like a good replacement.

Major upgrade. Less eye candy, a lot more substance.

Tucker is good and with practice will be even better. With Trump in office it should be quite the side show.

I haven't seen Tucker in action in a while. I don't watch cable shows. But, I'd love it if he pushes Hannity and O'Reilly out of the picture. I can't stand either one of them.

Maybe now he can afford a haircut?

I don't have any opinions about Meagan Kelly, except she has nice legs. Isn't that the main reason she was on Fox? She isn't bad at her job, though. I hope she can bring some needed change to the network business plan. If NBC has a tight-body clause like FOX News she's going to have to start skipping meals now that she's hit middle age.

Kinda like ya'lls Zac on Maggies, just the other side of the fence.Both very ,robotic,narrow, not rounded.
Takes all kinds though and thank God for that.
Don't let your meat loaf!

I sometimes enjoyed watching Kelly. She's bright, and she's so easy on the eyes that even I appreciated it. (Can I say that, or does it make me a genderest or a homophobe? I'm so confused.) I've had enough of the personal drama, though, so I hope she'll attract a bunch of new listeners at NBC. As the old joke goes, by leaving Fox she increased the level of conservatism both there at at NBC. Carlson's OK, but maybe a little too "on stage" for his own good.

I don't watch much TV but I do catch Tucker on the internet news sites. I like his style and youth...Fox needed that. Fox already has too many leg reporters and seeing Megan go does not bother me.
