  • Hey youngturks, all of you should take your liberal bullshit and move to Syria or the Helmand province.... Other than that, shut your pie holes and pickup some weapons

  • "In an attempt to influence them"... Why is it even allowed in the first place? Are you allowed to lobby a judge after a court case, but before the verdict is handed out in an attempt to influence the decision? This is so obviously corruption, and yet americans just keep hitting the proverbial snooze button to their lives.

  • Its almost like when Obama said there would be no lobbyist in his white house. Hypocrisy all around. I bet you never do a show on Obama though.

  • Gin·gri·cy [ging-grah-see]

    noun, plural -sies.

    1. a pretense of having a virtuous character, moral or religious beliefs or principles, etc., that one does not really possess.

    2. a pretense of having some desirable or publicly approved attitude.

    3. an act or instance of Gingricy.

  • Gingrich = Give In 'N Get RICH

  • RON PAUL 2012

  • Galloway rd Toronto... Haha G way

  • Newt is invented politician

    invented by little parasite state far away

    he must not win

  • Choose Freedom not Tyranny, choose Ron Paul for President 2012

  • how are candidates with these principles even allowed to run? only ron paul will have my vote

  • gingrich has an ugly face eh

  • all politicians are the establishment......revolt

  • Ron Paul 2012

  • Nice try again dumbass Dems

    You people just dont get it do ya? I mean seriously do you all think we are that stupid? that we dont see what youre trying to do?

    You want Romney to win because you dumbasses think your Liar N Chief can beat Romney

    I got an idea, why dont ya pay a woman to say that her and Newt and a goat all had sex together, call cbs abc nbc mslsd tell em you got pics of Newt with a goat

    So we can tell everyone what idiots you are ROFLMAO

    Ya got Caine but ya wont get Newt

  • @MrJMBrowning

    Your kidding right...people dont need to make up stuff on Newt he has more than enough skeletons in his closet. Like the fact he was forced to quit his job as speaker due to ethics violations...was forced to pay over 300 thousand in fines...the fact that he says he wants child labor. That will free up money for the schools though right...seeing how kids will be working instead of going to school. The fact he wants to arrest judges who dont settle cases the way he wants..etc

  • Wake up Gingrich lovers. . .. Gingrich will use and dump you just like he did his 1st wife and blame it on someone other than himself.

  • Love TYT, but this has to be the worst transcribed thing I have ever seen.

    "...Executive branch members in an attempt to influence them.". is transcribed as:

    "or chicken breast members intent involved."

    Really?

    I am so glad that I am not deaf!

  • Gingrich says he is not a lobbyist but a consultant. It reminds me of a Shakespeare quote. "What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet." It's simple. Gingrich is a lobbyist. If it looks like shit, smells like shit and tastes like shit guess what.  It's shit.

  • Newt Gettingrich WILL BE UNFAITHFUL TO AMERICA AS HE was with his wife!!!! Newt Gettingrich cannot even clear his own personal debt, how will he help america ??? VOTE RON PAUL

  • Gingrich is a scam, more of the same. Nobody wants it. Vote Ron Paul

  • @gorky007 Ron Paul?? No thanks, he likes terrorists, he likes them enough to give them the same trial that a US citizen can have

  • @MrJMBrowning

    that would be a shame...putting terrorist on trial. Be a shame for the government to have to prove somebody did something before they had them killed. Ya that would suck....especially when now U.S. citizens can be labeled terrorist for pretty much anything and the NDAA labels the U.S. a battlefield. Ya...having trials would be horrible...

  • TYT is broadcasting out of a cave now, is that the new bat cave?

  • Echo in studio i believe 

  • Psychopath.....

  • Someone needs to photoshop force lightning on that first picture!

  • So now the Tea Party People are supporting the Ultimate Washington Insider Newt Gingrich.

  • It's great to see Ben back on TYT !

  • Newt Gingrich is without a unreasonable doubt, a lobbyist.

  • I guess that Newt will never be in the Obama Administration, as the "President" said, when running for election in '08, said that there would be no lobbyist in his Administration. (wink, wink).

  • I thought that the tea party represented the "anti-government" movement?

    Then why the FUCK are they supporting this corrupt asshole who has been in the government since he mid 1970s!!!!

    Holy shit America, wake the fuck up!

  • The only historian you'll find for under a million dollars a year is the ones you find standing around outside of Home Depot. You pull your truck up and yell "Trabajo! Trabajo!! Academia, Historia! Trabajo!!" Then they jump in the back of your pick-up truck and you pay them by the day. However, their work is sub-par, at best. For quality historical research, you'll have to go with someone like Mayor McCheese. But that will cost you well over a million.

  • @jimbrown257

    ...I'm sorry, I meant to say Newt Gingrich.

  • @jimbrown257 Bad joke is bad.

  • What did people expect from someone whose name is a colloquial abbreviation of Getting Rich!?

  • I don't understand why Dems put out all this BS about the candidates now making sure that Republican morons do not nominate one of these dirty pieces of crap. Hold on to it, man!!! Then after they get nominated put all this information out when there is no turning back from that candidate? Why do you guys work to make Romney get the nomination?

  • The thing a LOT of ppl miss though is that the politicians of the american system cultivate a nearly religious cult like atmosphere. Ppl will follow them without explanation or clear proof, and will continue to follow them even when proven wrong. Sounds like religion eh? This idiocy on the publics part has been cultivated, and the guys you hate are going to win because of it. Only when it all comes crashing down are you all finally going to ask "what can I do to save it all? :O" Mark it.

  • hes a fat politician who has made millions off americas tax dollars like ALL OF THEM. NO MORE POLITICIANS.. just working REAL americans should be in office, but they have complete power and control.. everyone who gets elected works for the banks. I believe there is just ONE party with ppkl on both sides pretending to hate each other... its just what ppl want to see after 70 years of tv brainwqashing

  • If somebody paid me $200,000 American and I was a corrupt politician, I'd fully agree with what they said too.

  • Can politicians at least lie well?

  • The blue thing on the desk is distracting.

  • Gingrich sounds like a nasty infectious disease

  • So.... anyone see Ron Paul's new ad?

    Case closed. Ron Paul vs. Obama 2012

  • There is now way I'm voting for an old fat white wall tire rolling around washington again, Jesus Christ I'm an Independent now bye bye GOP there is no mandate if Newt is elected more of the same and watch how much more militant he is than Obama it will be the GOP that will steal our civil liberties citing national security and war on terror

  • HissWhoreian Gingrich now leading by double digits - how sick is the GOP ?

  • Please change the definition of Lobbying

  • "No matter what political reasons are given for war, the underlying reason is always economic." -- A. J. P. Taylor [Alan John Percivale Taylor] (1906-1990) British historian Restore America 2012 RON PAUL

  • ATTENTION: IF YOU HAVE ENOUGH CHARISMA TO SPEAK ON NATIONAL TELEVISION, HAVE NOT HAD ANY ADULTEROUS AFFAIRS OR SEXUAL MISCONDUCT, THEN PLEASE RUN FOR REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL OFFICE.

    We seriously have nowhere else to turn, because if we have one person who isn't an idiot or an asshole, he'll probably beat Obama. Also, the other flaws of these party candidates may be overlooked if we get a good guy into office.

  • Newt is the same guy who denied that he criticized Ryan's plan even though he's on videotape and then said that anyone who quotes that tape is a liar. Is it any wonder he would do this now? There is no depths this man will sink to in terms of dishonesty.

  • obamas destined for a second term

  • I used to support Newt Gingrich then I took an arrow in the knee !!!

  • lol at :04 pic looks like emperor palpatine

  • Ben never looked better in the turkish dungeon

  • Gingrich/A­bramoff in 2012. Winning team for the 1%...

  • Ron Paul needs to make a TV ad, in cartoon format, that makes these political kickback schemes understandable to the average drunken TVidiot.

  • Newt Gingrich is a Liar, The far right is wrong!

  • None of this matters for conservative voters. I think he'll easily win the GOP nomination.

  • Comment removed

  • Here's a nice piece of shit.

  • Oh God forbid!! NOT Gingrich please!!!!

  • I wish I could get paid $200,000 as a historian. I know way more than any conservative I've met, damn.

  • Serial adulterer ... undercover lobbyist ... pathological liar. Sounds like Newt's the perfect candidate for President.

  • 2:41 "Hey Abbot!"

    On that note, Obama would make a good Bud Abbot to Newt's Lou Costello.

  • @ThatBlackPanda there are two types of libertarians. The ones who want personal freedom and the ones who want economic freedom. America's political is so horribly broken that nobody knows that anymore. Economic freedom stifles personal freedom and vice versa.

  • better angle

  • What's up with that blue barrier on the desk?

  • Newt is funny because he's a moron.

    Repubs are funny because they make him their front runner.

    Le's not even talk about Michelle and Herman and Willard....so funny.

    Fox News is funny for a million reasons.

    In short,America is an hilarious country.

    I'm Canadian,but I swear "american politics" is one of the most entertaining show I've seen in the history of comedy.

    Keep up the good work ,y'all,I love it.

  • @Bennybombomable It's entertaining right up until we remember that they're our only land neighbours, their economy deeply impacts our economy, and our Prime Minister is deeply in love with their government. That's when my smile fades away...

  • @Bennybombomable

    I thought Newt was catholic?

  • @MrSpacehopper123 nope...he's a moron.

  • @MrSpacehopper123 he converted...he use to be southern baptist...he should be excommunicated for being such a scumbag

  • @Bennybombomable

    I think an appropriate summary would be, Go to the Daily Show for news, go to Fox News for comedy.

  • @123BlueKnight I watch both the Daily Show and TYT, but I have to say, I learn much more from TYT. Sadly, TDS only runs for 22 or so minutes which is mainly the reason.

  • @Bennybombomable In a couple of decades if america becomes a police state, your going to regret sitting there and laughing. I can't assure you that any future government won't try to invade you because we run out of oil for the big oil companies.

  • @Bennybombomable yes it seems that our whole country has become a big reality tv show. its like on thanksgiving that uncle everyone has we always haft to make the most noise in the world even if we got to be crazy as shit to do it. same as the uncle got to talk louder then every 1 else about random nonsense just to be heard.

  • @travkeyes hehehe......yea I have that uncle too man..

  • @Bennybombomable

    "I'm Canadian,but I swear "american politics" is one of the most entertaining show I've seen in the history of comedy."

    I'm a Finn and I concur.

  • @Bennybombomable HEAR, HEAR! Im honestly looking forward more to next years election than the Olympic Games...

  • @Bennybombomable LOL glad we can entertain the world. 

  • He's not a Lobbyist, He's just a crook. Get it strait Cenk.

  • @Richardisdorky He's both.

  • I love the WoW chuck norris comercial, can't "skip advertisement" on that one ever.

  • And yet many stupid ass people will vote for this piece of shit !

  • @justjulie37 SOOOOOOO Many dumb ass Americans! 

  • @justjulie37

    true that

  • I wonder if America is stupid enough to vote for Newt Gingrich

  • get a new sound guy

  • 0:03 fat senator Palpatine

  • Is there anyone worth voting for that's not a liar and did his advise make this country what it is today Arrest him. and execute him. the rest will fall in line or meet the same fate

  • Newt Gingrich resembles the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.

  • @Uristdorf or emperor Palpatine

  • The first pic of Newt in this picture made me think of him as a Sith Lord. Lightning surging from his fingertips.

  • Yeah like I need to see a story on how almost every politician takes money from lobbyist.

  • Comment removed

  • The audio in the new studio still sucks. :(

  • GoSh I Started to hate Ben.. He iS moron and it SpeakS for itSelf every time he openS hiS goddamn mouth. douch

  • So Th is whathe GOP has been reduced to?

    Choosing a guy simply becase he Isn't Mitt Romney.

    I mean sure, vote for someone who is a two faced cunt, but do so for Positive reasons, what thir polices are, not because their Not someone else.

    Wow, it looks like Obama's got his second term in the bag.

  • That picture of Newt Gingrich they flash up looks fucking evil. Put a futuristic collarless button up shirt on him and he's Dr. Evil.

    "If you accuse me of lobbying Mr. Bigglesworth gets mad, and if Mr. Bigglesworth gets mad people DIE!!!! MOHAAA HAA HAA!!

  • I really get irritated that clowns like the "Newter" and Herman Cain , Sarah Palin Michele Bachman get so much coverage, but they act as if Ron Paul doesn't even exist.

  • @MrBigfan007

    Libertarianism is poison to Neoconservatism.

    I never get why you guys are part of the Republican Party when it is clear that you guys are much more liberal than conservative.

  • @ThatBlackPanda Ron Paul runs as a Republican because we have a two party system in our country, third parties never get taken seriously and get little to no media coverage.

    Libertarians themselves are not necessarily republicans, some lean more toward Republican and some lean more toward Democrat but I'm sure that most of them would be happy if both corrupt parties were taken down.

  • ...i fuckin swear the Grinch looks like hitler....take a sharpie and pencil in a little moustache...and the resemblance is uncanny

  • I don't think you heard me the first time: I... did not have... lobbyist relations with Fannie.

  • So eventually they are knocking off Newt and Cain, that leaves Mitt or Nitt or whatever his name is, of course it should be Ron. Whatever happens, they have to face Obama and the American people have been lulabyed by Obama, 4 more years of Obama and America will be a 3rd World Country, maybe we can get some aid to feed the people. Of Course if these people decide to start a nice big War to distract everybody and get as many people killed as they can, then it will not matter anyway.

  • 0:04 THE DEVIL...I GOT SCARED...FUCK...

  • I get the impression from how easily his opinion is bought that Newt Gingrich is the kind of guy that would let you go ass to mouth if the money was right.

  • Bad Youtube day for Newt Gingrich, destroyed by the new Ron Paul ad & The Young Turks....

  • @DexArtist Mortal Kombat voice: "Finish Him.... Fatality"

  • If you happen to be in favor of seeing Obama get re-elected next year, then you should definitely support Newt as the republican candidate. He would get slaughtered. Romney is the only one who has a chance to compete with BHO.

  • boxer rebellion... I don't think many westerners know about that history

  • Newt is a shitbag elitest cock sucker!

  • They say Newt lobbied former Sen. Christopher S. Bond (R-Mo.) who, was chairman of the Senate Appropriations subcommittee, that had jurisdiction over OFHEO's budget -- tried to withhold $10 million of the agency's funds until Armando Falcon was replaced

    Armando Falcon the former Director of the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight, had led an investigation of financial misconduct at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and pointed out problems with both companies before there was a crisis

  • I'm pretty sure that first photo is of a villain from Batman. 

  • Newt Gingrich: endless sexual scandals; 84 ethics charges while speaker of the House; $300,000 fine for corruption--the largest fine in the history of the House; four times had to admit that he phonied info to the Ethics Committee investigating him; took money from two charities for poor inner-city kids & used it for his personal use; left the House $5,000,000 richer. Venal, stupid, & totally corrupt: he is the perfect Republican candidate for the most prestigious office on earth.

  • @Jack194343 Which is why it would be fantastic if he won the primary. With the scrutiny to his past he might end up going to jail instead of winning the presidency.

  • @inademv I agree, it would also give Obama another term--nothing to celebrate, but better than any Republican.

  • @Jack194343 I thought lying under oath to a grand jury would disqualify someone from holding " the most prestigious office on earth " but it wasn't.

  • @Jack194343 You forgot Future ex-President of the United States =/

  • @Jack194343,He did all that because he was being patroitc to America when he was doing all that.

  • @98bigbutt Ah.  That explains it :D

  • Comment removed

  • @Jack194343 Beautiful job laying that out. And to think that he had the nerve to spearhead the impeachment of President Clinton. One of the most crooked politicians ever.

  • Cool! Ben is back :)

  • I would think all Liberals and Progressives would want to see a Obama vs. Gingrich matchup, especially when Liberals and Progressives are the smartest people in history of the world. How could you possibly lose.

  • @MrSpencerport Heh, I'm all in favor of that match.

  • WHo picks the pictures like when cenk says newt gingrich 0:03?

    he pics the best freeze frames/pics hahahaha

  • So a lobbyist is only a person who works for a company, gets paid to advertise their message to state and federal officials, and does NOT like the aforementioned company.

  • 0:05 Emperor Palpatine before he overturned the republic and established his Nazi empire.

  • ok, ok, ok... time for some barbs at the war criminals in office now...current tv/gore did not stop that yet, did they?

  • Newt Gingrich, he's not only a lying lobbying bastard, he's also the CANCER killing America slowly. 

  • @DeVstatrOmga no to mention ponies!!!

  • @DeVstatrOmga

    President Clinton seems to like Newt but then again what does Clinton know when compared to you?

    big news for you progressive ass, if Obowma was scrutinized nearly as close as all GOP candidates, he would likely be impeached. Why is Obowma preventing anyone looking at what he wrote when at Columbia & Harvard?? too afraid his commie writings would expose him!! With Palin liberals asked even what articles she read! fucking liberal dorks

  • @genie0390 lol, youre stuck in the past. no one gives a shit if people are commies nowadays. the cold war is over.

  • @payasoinfeliz

    that's what far-left fuckheads think but they're very wrong!

    one would think that obowma who so many liberals think is such a great intellectual, Pres Harvard Law Review, would only be too proud to release such materials as essays, all sorts of writings. Why doesn't he?

  • @genie0390 Maybe because he's busy trying to get the country to all pull in the same direction, in order to make sure you don't disappear down the financial toilet? More than can be said for the far right in America...

  • @rogue211235

    talk about brain washed fools!

    this country became the most powerful Country ever seen on this planet WITHOUT his help. what makes you think a community organizer w/o any experience knows how to fix this Country?

    actually, he's too busy campaigning to be running the Country even if he knew what he was talking about

  • @payasoinfeliz. genie0390 watches Fox "News" so telling him that nobody gives a shit if people are commies nowadays and the cold war is over is lost on him. All genie does is come on TYT to post racism, lies, fear mongering, insults and arrogance. He does this because he can't debate like an adult, backup what he says with facts, is a loser and only talks tough because he's hiding behind his computer.

  • holy shit I'm so glad I majored in history now!

  • Can anyone tell me who is hiring Historians?

  • @Jensagirl No one. I know I have useless degree in Sociology. Which is just a really expensive piece of wall decoration. Thank the Flying Spaghetti Monster I have a good job I don't hate. If I had to rely on that degree, i'd be f-u-c-k-e-d.

  • Newt Gingrich is not only a lobbyist.  He is also a professional ass clown from the planet Conservatard, sent to our planet to be "Clown of the Earth."

  • Nice way to reinvent words.  First waterboarding becomes enhanced interrogation. Now lobbyist is historian.

  • Dealing with lobbyists is like dealing with the Mafia.

    Abolish lobbyism.

  • @Guernicaman

    The problem is not lobbying itself but the fact that Government can intervene in the market. Remove that ability from Government and lobbyists will not seek business there.

    One of the things you can do to help is to elect politicians who are pro-market and anti-government intervention in the market, or anything that is closest to that.

  • Holy fuck. That first picture makes him look like a ventriloquist dummy.

  • God he is so hideous inside ad out. Hard to tell which is uglier...

  • Interesting how Republicans can hate Romney for being a flip-flopper/hypocrite, yet love Gingrich, who is just as much a flip-flopper/hypocrite. Funny how that works.

  • Gary Johnson is the only real candidate.

  • @vinnys025, Gary Johnson is the only republican I have ever voted for and I don't regret it.
