Tucker Carlson calls for Genocide in Iran
Tucker Carlson, in an interview on Fox News, has revealed his position on Iran. He’s against it — as in, the entire country:
I think we are the only country with the moral authority [...] sufficient to do that. [The U.S. is] the only country that doesn’t seek hegemony in the world. I do think, I’m sure I’m the lone voice in saying this, that Iran deserves to be annihilated. I think they’re lunatics. I think they’re evil.
It's fair to use terms like “lunatics” and “evil” to describe Iran’s government, in part because of the oppression it inflicts upon the Iranian people. But annihilating Iran doesn’t mean killing its leading government officials. It means annihilating the population of that country.

If we had FEMA run re-education camps, think of all the good that could be done for folks like Tucker Carlson. If it were up to me, I'd build the first one in Michele Bachmann's congressional district. As a matter of fact this may be a good stimulus project for the economy! We wouldn't have to use it as a FEMA re-education camp, because these are imaginary, but it would be fun just to build one to mess with wingers.
Hell, even just advertising a coming stimulus funded unspecified FEMA construction project for Minnesota - that won't be used as an anti-Obama dissident camp for people like Michele Bachmann, John Hinderaker and Tucker Carlson, but could double for one in an emergency - would be fun. I'd be in favor of that.
