Congressman Ryan brings it

[sushi81]

the older you get the dumber you get, so the rich men say hey let's vote the older dude we'll treat him or her like a kid with candy and milkshake. YEA!!! ......

[gainguide]

is he thinking of running for president?? HE SHOULD!

[KiillWiithMe]

@gainguide hes no puppet, they wouldnt let him.

[bobbyblueblaze]

Weiner, Ryan ticket PLEASE!!!!! These guys CARE.

[LongLiveBrandon]

Yeah lets change the subjet b4 they knw how much we spend on war....quick quick b4 the public knows the truth.

[tombeast17]

I wanna hear the reply, this is very frustrating. Ryan makes such clear, concise and factual arguments i wanna see the opposition attempting to wriggle out of it.

[caliburjinx]

Wow my congressman is the shit!!!

[glendaweil]

this guy is a dumbass liberal like all the rest of the dems.

[EndorphineT78]

@glendaweil why? he proved how bush has fucked your country. probably 80 to 95% of everything that bush has done has been negative.

look at the figures look at the debts.

your country is fucked.

no wonder there are millions in poverty.

capitalism fails because the the market cannot sustain it. there is always market failure. i do economics. i know

you need aspects of SOCIALISM in order to function efficiently

[glendaweil]

@EndorphineT78 I know economics as well and we need about 10% socialism and 90 percent capitalism, thats not what the dems. are proposing they want it more the other way. I think capitalism is sustainable done the right way. And Bush did not mess the economy up that was more Democrates. I did not agree with everything he did but he is a far better leader than Obama will ever be.

[EndorphineT78]

@glendaweil uhh yeh bush did mess up your economy. When clinton left office they were in billion dollar surpluses. How can you say George Bush did not mess up your country. What makes you say that the democrats ruined the country. capitalism and no regulation has ruined your country. that's the simple truth. and no bush is not a better leader than Obama he couldn't even talk properly let alone run the most powrful nation. THE ONLY REASON PEOPLE DISLIKE OBAMA IN AMERICA IS BECAUSE HE'S BLACK

[EndorphineT78]

@glendaweil you need more socialism than 10%, watch Capitalism: A love story by Michael Moore. your level of inequality is astounding. Its so bad where its gotten to the point where Citibank has stated in a memo to its richest employees that, "the US is no longer a democracy but a plutomomy." "This occurs when the top 1% earn more than the bottom 95% combined. The only 'good' thing bush did was to make rich people richer and poor people poorer.

[EndorphineT78]

@glendaweil bush: cut 35 mill in funding in advanced pediatric training for doctors. cut funding into renewable energy by 50 %. revoked rules strengthening the power of the government to deny contracts to companies that violate federal laws, environmental laws, and workplace safety standards. These are only a taste of what bush did. thank god capitalism is only minute from where i com from otherwise we would end up like you. an absolute mess.

your banks are screwed.

[EndorphineT78]

@glendaweil and how can Obama achieve ANYTHING when you're in trillion dollar debts? He inherited the worst financial crisis ever. what can he spend money on? the answer is nothing. Bush loaned billions, sent you into a 'black hole' which is iraq in order to create a monopoly on the oil, and wasted money on his stupid policies.

if you think Obama is shit then please type in on youtube: 'Great Moments in Presidential Speeches'. and watch any of them. Bush was an illiterate, lying bastard

[mlsku]

Run for president!!

[yousawthis]

well some one has to say something at least the truth doesn't hurt.

[SuperTubbyTube]

this guy is awesome.

[cjm608]

i agree with mr ryan!

[cory640]

I like Tim Ryan, but he is a democrat with republican  tacticts, now I'm not saying he isn't effective, he is, he's a hard hitter with damn good points and he makes them well, but I think he lacks a little bit of the integrity that other democrats have about themselves in a debate, but nonetheless, I like Tim Ryan a lot.

[wccoffee1]

give 'em steel tim.see you in the white house in 2012.

[steve89z]

when will the corruption end? i guess never.

[ThumpR8080]

@steve89z it ends when we say it does, people simply need to wake up to that fact.

[EthanTheMighty]

NO ONE IS THERE

[CommanderUTube]

This looks like a young Skywalker in the making. I hope he is still alive. 2006 is some three years ago.

Meantime, my hope for a Jedi Knight is on Ron Paul, and his supporters.

If not for the knowledge that God is almighty, I would have given up hope long time ago.

The "smart" people seem to be playing god and ready to condemn the world to wars and mayhem for their own unfathomable motives.

[thablackmarkit]

Why is there only 2 people in the crowd ?

[633390]

love this guy

[Praestantia111]

He's not wearing a wedding ring, he's smart, he's got balls, and he's hot; what more could a woman want?!

[NYJared04]

Him, Dennis Kucinich, Peter DeFazio, and Marcy Kaptur are probably the most honorable representatives from the Democratic Party.

[blankfist]

I heard a little iPhone digital noise interference in this vid, m15. Are you one of those insipid iPhone guys?! ;)

[Broadcastw]

He can be the next president...lots of potential. This is what OBAMA should do on how to bash the republicans.

[bolabola]

the other seats seems to be empty...

where are the other reps?

[Praestantia111]

Waiting for nighttime to sneak in and secretly vote crap bills in that will only benefit themselves.

[cruisemate]

Thats a lot of money ! Oyeeea..... I want some of those ! You could like...... fix everything with those money !

[Praestantia111]

'A joke..... night in and night out. 'I wonder what that's supposed to mean.

[European1123]

cool guy Tim Ryan.

I wonder when the government will finally assassinate him...

It seems like they can't stand that guy for much longer.

[karlakay327]

OMG, this was 2 years ago, what does he have to say now. I, too, love this man. I don't like the smart person in the background mimicing him, I wonder who that was???

[zest4livin]

This dude voted for the bailouts, but he is dead on with the budget, and the war. When he says we have the money, I guess we would have money to help ourslves if not for throwing our money in the "black hole" Iraq. I love his passion, and he's cute too. Go Timothy!!!

[Praestantia111]

He voted for the bailouts? Geez, my respect for him just went down a notch. Too bad. The only way he can redeem himself now is to vote for the Abolition of the Federal Reserve. If he's still around.

[Praestantia111]

I know, isn't he kind of hot? He's really tall also. At least 6'2" I don't think he's married and he's only 35!

[xcave1]

This is what a Senate Majority Leader looks like. Are you listening Reid?

[RCTurkinJerkin]

This guy should run for President...

[AvmanM]

$11.5 million dollars an hour = $3200 per second. An unbelievable amount even for the world's largest economy.

[bmxtra211]

pppft 3200 per second dats nothin my uncle is a lawyer n i think he makes like 5 times as much coz he lives in a big house and drives a escalade dats why im gona be lawyer 2 n i dont even kno wat im gona do wit all my money hahahahahahahahaha

[jgeorgel]

Ryan kicks ass again! Good for him.

[ThoughtCriminal911]

Great speech. Why is there so few people attending? Are they on holiday

[RyanEclipso]

WOW this guy is amazing I SUPPORT him all the way

[erikdavis33]

why has no one every heard of this guy. im from cleveland 30 miles away and have never heard of him. keep the fight up mr. ryan

[alexwitchunter]

we should support Tim for 2012...........I believe if we unify ourselves we can keep the change that Obama is going to make...........I am talking serious about this.....otherwise....retards like the current government are going to take over again.....let's get unite and fight against ALL these 'tards

[JueputaGuebon]

he better on Obamas cabinet!!!

[JPLong86]

He was an hero.

[troyflowers]

Is. Is a hero.

[BigNickontheDrum]

Fuck that - This is a Tim Ryan Sandwich!

It is made of Epic and Win!

Seriously, I'm from Columbus, how have I never heard of this guy? Every video I've seen of him is so amazingly kick-ass it makes me PROUD To BE FROM OHIO - you know how RARE that feeling is???

[JPLong86]

Okay. You win. :)

[TheresNoTimeLikeNow]

SO...ALL THOSE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS GOING INTO THAT BLACK HOLE CALLED IRAQ (God bless those poor poor people) FOLLOW THE MONEY WEAPONS DEALERS THE MILITARY GEAR MANUFACTURERS THE OILIES THE HALIBURTONS REBUILDING THE SAND CASTLES IMMEDIATELY AFTER KICKING OVER & SMASHING THE PERFECTLY GOOD ONES THAT WERE THERE PRIOR TO DESTRUCTION BY THESE INSANE WAR MONGERS CHENEY BUSH RUMSFELD & POWELL THE ASSES OF EVIL IN PERSON GREEDY MURDERES ALL OF THEM CONDI TOO. DISGUSTING. WAR CRIMES. GOD HELP US

[Aaron01f]

too bad he wasnt presindent

[gogowright]

I have found a new hero in Tim Ryan

[iamsosogay]

woah, he is like Batman, but he kicks ass with words instead

[Jack671975]

will ryan get a chance to ever speak to a full house??? i dont think so, he will be hidden from the public a much as possible, no prime time for ryan

[Clumsythumbs]

I'm jealous of his constituancy in Ohio. They should be proud of Mr.Ryan's representation and straight talk.

[goboygo18]

im not american but he shouldve ran cuz he nos wat hes doing

[msigler78]

I like him.

[painfreeru]

The irony and the sad truth of people like him is that he SPEAKS THE TRUTH THAT NO ONE WANTS TO HEAR AND HE WILL NEVER GET WHAT HE DESERVES. HE IS A MARTURE IN A WAY...

WE NEED A PRESIDENT LIKE THIS...MAN...IMAGINE 100 PEOPLE LIKE HIM IN THE WHITE HOUSE?

[Raiden47]

FYI, I'm a Canadian, not an American. Yeah, I like this guy regardless of my country of origin/residence.

[Raiden47]

Now THIS is a fucking politician.. HE can SPEAK, HE is passionate, HE knows when to quit talking and leave people stunned. This is a DAMNED good man, and he deserves much more support than he will ever have.

[black57401]

Wow I love this guy.That is what i call true straight talk;Not a straight talk but true straight talk.I wish my representatives were like him.

[OliveOilTan]

I am proud to be a constituent of Tim Ryan and proud to say I've voted for him. You go Tim!!!

[uglybinnen]

I salute this man.. he is a true patriot.. not the once that dont ask questions... their leaders make great money on the war, and the land is suffering, the soldiers is sent to die for their greedy leaders.

[TurboD16z6]

this guy is the shit.. i knew it all.. but.. who would listen to me.. go tim..

[Thatblack1]

Wow, he's talking about the war and the economy since 2006 and nobody is listening to him. And they try to shut him up...wow...you can't do anything constructive in government anymore.

[berkeleyoverdrive]

He's a good man, and I am impressed with everything he tries to do in congress. Rarely do you see a politician with the courage to stick their neck out on the line like this.

Unfortunately, I don't expect to ever see a president with this kind of integrity. I believe that you could fill a library with what the government of the United States doesn't tell us and I'm just cynical enough to believe that there is a conspiracy of some sort in Washington that has been in place for a long time.

[natUcanette]

daaaaaammmmnnnnnnnnn ryan for pres!

[trevorgodchild]

sheeple dont lissen

[seze70]

finally..someone with balls to tell it like it is..I think I wet myself..this guy is the shit!!

[Melpheos1er]

I'd never heard about him until today but this guy rocks

[democracyplease]

when is Mr Ryan running for President? cause im voting for this guy

[anyhu4u]

tim "get'em" ryan.maaan get'em

[victor2cutube]

wish the video and sound were in sync.. It makes u wonder if it is the real audio.. But he is right on all this..nobody is there..where the hell is everyone?

[vincentca2004]

why is everyone talking about Obama....He is the other side of the same coin with Mccain!!! This guy would make an insane Duo with Ron Paul who is the real representative of the people and an incredible trio with Marcy Kaptur!! The only thing that let me down about him is that he voted for the bailout so it means he doesnt grasp the bigger picture of what will happen to the dollar if the bailout takes place. You can say welcome Amero if it does happen

[jcpierce22185]

Yes... but however, Ryan voted for the bailout with a lot of hesitancy. I live in Youngstown, I hear pretty much Tim Ryan has to say, especially since I have an in with the Democrat Party in Youngstown. Ryan didn't want to, but he knew he had to. Democrats rock. Especially Tim Ryan. Remember Ryan is well loved here in Youngstown/Warren. No one will ever defeat Ryan for that seat.

[thekidhb11]

Tim Ryan Marcy Kaptur 2012. I love my state when I hear those two.

[mamazma]

this guy is cool

[SaratogaDave]

yeah every time I see this guy he is kicking republican ass!

[Shatmir]

I am an AVID Barack supporter . . . but if he ran against Barack, then I might vote him over Barack

[isthatfunny]

Tim,call Ron Paul and start this bi-partisin committee to tell the truth . We as a free nation can not make a mistake with Russia, and China is just lickin' their chops. We need people to represent the people, with the truth. our children are being leveraged into slavery and if they open their eyes now, maybe their kids will get a new start with the constitution and the right to a free press.

[vushot]

your nations not free

[branlob]

HELL YEAH!!!!

[jvmoran]

OHIO REPRESENT!

[123bigr]

Obama should have this guy at the top of his list for VP.I would make this guy President.Nice to see someone speaking truth to power.

[ironkong73]

Obama should have choose this guy for VP.

[victor2cutube]

I think he would make a good VP too but I think he needs a few more years in congress.. maybe 2012 he'll be ready to kick some ass..he is too young and doesn't know how to temper the truth.

[nightscape2008]

We need more people like Ryan. Everyone else is just a corporate puppet with luke warm excuses to deflect what's really going on.

[NanoLopez2]

Ryan for president!

[NeilFraudstrong]

@NanoLopez2

I don't believe he's old enough yet, but I would vote for him in about 2 seconds.

[dinnj]

Owned! Tim Ryan for president!

[funkyyow]

Tim Ryan is the future! We need truth and his giving us the truth.

And thats the BOTTOM LINE!

[cungilez]

Ryan for VP! Honest guy. BTW where are those pro Mccain's comments in this page?

[gandy74]

THIS is what the definition of a "hot" man should be, not some porny muscleboy or moronic Abercrombie jock.

[ammobigg]

love this fuckin guy doent have time for bullshit RYAN for president

[tempusandfugit]

yes ryan for president

[Rassel146]

ryan for president

[xxashyy]

Tim Ryan is the man. Very passionate speaker. We need more congressman like him.

[ironsheik3]

love this guy

[youboob1989]

we need more like him! wow, what a stand up guy!

[dhammerindy]

Now that is what I call being owned! Great job.

[SeattleGuy1968]

Congressman Tim Ryan (D-OH)

[softearth]

I agree with everything he said except for the last part about "we have the money".

No, we don't have the money! We're 9 TRILLION dollars in debt!

What money???? Oh yeah, we just need to keep borrowing more money....lol

[my15minutes]

yep.

watching Bush pay for his war has been like a guy going to loansharks, to pay for the brand new car his wife knows they can't afford.

[ShenmueAtheist]

Well said Mr. Ryan!

[eljagg01]

BAM.

[airbrushedhottie]

Whoever this guy is he really BRUNG it. Damn, he actually dared to speak the truth.

[gwbushisno2]

DAMN!

Tell it like it is Tim Ryan

[gwbushisno2]

g. w. bush is a Piece of Shit

[realdeal7369]

damn, i like this guy from ohio. fuckin a brother preach it.!! fuck bush and all he stands for. this guy told the truth about the bush administration. fuck iraq too. that money would be better spent on something other than that fuck all of a country

[morgiestern]

Look how many people are watching this guy besides the camera man.

[delicacy01]

I know, that's sad. But thank God for youtube cause now over 5,000 people have seen it. :)

[lisamj]

i could kiss this guy! i love his passion, his conviction. he has balls the size of texas and i give him credit for having the guts to say what he (and many like myself) believes. this is what it's all about. so sad that any fellow american would for one moment consider republicans as caring and competent. how delusional of them to think so. so sad. i will write this guy a letter letting him know how much i loved his rant....a big BRAVO to him no doubt. Namaste.

[darcytirsia]

1) Democrats only speak hatred and fear to the American public.

2) Liberals trust our enemies at every turn, but show no trust in the government that they run. Never forget that the Liberals are in charge of the Senate and the Congress.

3) Liberals want to decrease our military, and want to defund intelligence that could have prevented 911.

4)If our country is attacked again by terrorist, these same liberals will ask if more could have been done to stop them.

[MintDentalFloss]

You wish, you fearmongering tool of the careless, hateful, and wreckless right-wing neocons. I hope you feel safe now that the neocon policies have actually INCREASED the number of terrorists around the world and rallied more to Al-Qaeda's cause than any of them could EVER have hoped for. Bravo, you deserve a pat on the back. Thank you for making the world my children grow up in a more dangerous one.

[MintDentalFloss]

That was supposed to be a reply to "darcytirsia".

[kensei85]

You are oh so ignorant.

[eljagg01]

1. SPEAKING HATRED? How about a President who says "No, I realy wouldn't consider Atheists citizens"?

2. With a conservative majority on the Supreme Court, a fascist Evangelical with all the tact of Yosemeite Sam in the White House, and a Dem. majority in Congress so slim it can't override the vetoes of that idiot, HOW THE HELL DO YOU FIGURE THAT LIBERALS CONTROL THE GOVERNMENT? Just like we control the media? Conservatives love to play the victim while calling liberals cowards.

[eljagg01]

Do you mean that the majority of democrats in Congress signed a bill which authorized war on Iraq if and only if Iraq failed the nuclear weapons inspections, and then later voted against the war started by Bush before the inspections were completed, a war in which thousands have died? In that case, I'm proud to be affiliated with the "flip-flop" party because at least they do their research...unlike some.

[Mongo305]

They didn't vote for war with conditions moron. Why try to rewrite history? They voted for war period, just as the UN did in resolutions adopted by the ENTIRE security council. The inspection were not completed because Saddam kicked the inspectors out, again in violation of SC Resolutions. Funny, Democrats only voted against the war years after it turned bad, because they are gutless and shameful examples of what is wrong with this country.

Oh, and I am not Republican. I hate them too.

[eljagg01]

Voing against a war is gutless? Yes, I suppose it does take "guts" to send other people to die for no reason, and in that case, I'm glad my party doesn't have that type of "gut".

As for "rewriting history", maybe you should turn off the FOX Nothing Channel for a moment and take advantage of the milions of resources at your fingertips which will tell you history. That way, you don't have to walk around with your head up your ass.

[Mongo305]

I will say this though, he makes total sense. I hate the fact we need to lose this war (according to Democrats), but he does make total sense. God Bless him.

[Mongo305]

Wonder if he would vote to outlaw the murder of babies in the US. The only thing democrats are good for is running away from a good fight, or spending our money while making millions themselves.

[eljagg01]

The only babies murdered are those thrown in dumpsters by scared girls forced to have them. I notice that you're sitting on your ass on Youtube, not losing your life in the "good fight" as you call it. Democrats don't run away, they have the balls to point out the hypocrisy of people like you, people who wring their hands about the murder of "babies" while blindly supporting a war in which thousands of BORN have died.

[Mongo305]

Dream on. Babies vacuumed out of the womb are murdered not only by the doctors performing the procedure but by woman who will happily kill another human being for the cause of sexual satisfaction. If you can't be responsible, keep you damn legs closed.

As for my actions, you assume too much and know too little. Democrats have the hypocrisy title cornered, after voting for a war they turn their back on their commitment. That is all too typical of Democrats.

[eljagg01]

You think a clump of cells is a baby & it has a right to life whereas a woman does not. You say the Democrats voted for the war when in fact the vast majority of House Democrats didnt & the Sen. Dems were evenly split, and then, when more than $11 mil is spent PER HR in Iraq your Prez's approval rating is 28% & 84% of Iraq military experts say we're losing the war, you have the nerve to say Democrats "turned their back on commitment" & call US hypocrites! The logic of the Conservative mind!

[henniexoxo]

Way to go! Don't ever back down!!!

[mytube2048]

A-fucking-men.

[RealBigDingos]

He speaks like a human being... thank goodness. Pick whatever side feels best for you but god damn it, just be honest.

[daligoddess2006]

Yeah, too bad he's speaking basically to an almost empty house. Where the heck is everybody else?

[Lateralist]

hell yeah.

[Rashaed]

I feel sorry for Ryan and guys like him. To have shout and still not be neard by the Bushbots would make anyone anygry.

[gercald]

finally a real american

[Darren7160]

I pray (yes, a Liberal who prays, go figure) that the anger rises as the election comes closer. I am tired of people equating liberal with punching bag. Screw 'em!

[mitchm325]

Amen to that.

Why can't people like this run for presidency? Someone with balls, initiative, and speaks the truth.

[my15minutes]

Yup. Instead, Democrats get offered Kerry as their alternative.

Don't get me wrong, I'd still take Kerry over Bush, of course. At least Kerry actually served in Vietnam, instead of dodging it.

But face it. Kerry was kinda' flimsy, boring, and had more in common with Bush than he'd care to admit.

[vudukungfu]

BRAVO! The problem with having a society full of idiots is clearly that they will elect an idiot to lead.

Don't get me wrong, I'm no post9/11 bandwagon patriot.

George Bush is not welcome in my neighborhood.

Nor is his side kick who shot that guy in the face.

Nor is that fake bake Mary Tyler Moore look-a-like tagging along with him.

Can't get much more contrived than a hypenated-american Mary Tyler Moore Look-a-like.

[spark54]

this is so amazing! it's sad that we've never heard about him before now. it's pretty great to see someone on in the government actually calling the administration out for once.

[ilikestuff712]

FINALLY!!! A Democrat With BALLS!!

Hell yeah!!

Maybe our party has a chance, if they can step it up like this congressman... KUDOS Tim Ryan!

[my15minutes]

Yeah, it's nice to see a well-informed progressive with some passion.

I uploaded it right after it first appeared and I've seen like 15 copies of it since, and I give every one of 'em 5 stars. Almost as many uploads as Keith's reply to Rumsfeld.

[ingeborgsjon]

Democrat? He is a Republican. ;)

[digimomma]

Says on the screen D from Ohio...

[ingeborgsjon]

Sorry, I interpreted Rep. (Representative) as Republican. I must have been tired when I wrote that.
