Tucker Carlson equates women in combat with domestic violence...

His tweet:

Tucker Carlson ✔ @TuckerCarlson

The administration boasts about sending women to the front lines on the same day Democrats push the Violence Against Women Act.
4:16 AM - 24 Jan 13

Tucker Carlson, editor of the Daily Caller, has pried upon a contradiction in the Obama administration's stance on women. Obama wants to stop women from being assaulted, but it is allowing women to serve in combat, where they might be attacked. Does Obama want women to get assaulted or not? Huh? Huh?

This is a Lindsay Bluth–level retort. ("You know, we're not the only ones destroying trees. What about beavers? You call yourself an environmentalist, why don't you go club a few beavers?&quot Serving on combat is a choice citizens make, accepting risk in order to serve their country.

But the pissant previously known as "Bow-Tie Boy" is certainly a part of the conversation.

It's said he favors the bow tie because the long variety kept tripping him when his head was up his ass.

Mind bobbling stupid. A woman choosing to go into combat is the same as a woman not choosing to be beaten?
