Dan Rather: " if Sarah Palin had said this"

[EdwardP88]

in retrospect it wasn't even a bad comment what Joe said...

[OkaytoThink]

@2bpilot

Insurance companies have already run rampant. Read the studies. The public offering would have redistributed high-risk patients, instead of not insuring them or concentrating them in public sector programs.

Gov't isn't limiting competition - its offering the public what doesn't currently exist. As for "no money" - We have not money because the balance budget left by Clinton was exploded by Bush tax cuts (subsidies to the rich), 2 unfunded wars. THAT's why we have no money.

[OkaytoThink]

@2bpilot

The stimulus did work. It sustained the economy - we didn't fall into a cliff. Every economist asserts w/o question, the best fuel is "consumer spending". The deficit w/suffer initially - but once perm employment is up, tax revenues also rise. A simplified version - but nonetheless true. Remember, the hole was deep. very deep. Clearly, bush tax cuts haven't helped have they. the super rich are NOT fueling the economy inspite of maintaining their gov't subsidies aka tax cuts.

[eajinabi]

@2bpilot What exactly would you like him to stop spending money on? How about not spending ridiculous amount of money on defense (1.5 trillion in 2010). Whats the point of sending troops and armaments to the middle east to shoot at caves? It was the brainchild of George Bush but Obama is continuing it (even though he stated he wanted to end it). How about letting the middle east kill each other and have americans worry on domestic issues?

[davelantor]

Internet FTW

[MSG685]

@2bpilot the deficit increased under the currant administration because they are trying to pay down the previous admin. credit only , our children will pay for it latter spending spree.

[MSG685]

@2bpilot PART 2 .. he has been president of the United States of America for over 2 years. . is the right supposed to prevent 9 /11 first responders from getting health care and just completely hold up government . so that less than one percent of the population can keep a fucking 3 percent tax break. slash spending where ? eliminate which programs ? please be specific.

[MSG685]

@2bpilot health care is a hit with the people who needed it passed. it is all ready saving lives. people with preexisting health problems will now be insured . insurance companies can not deny coverage to people who have been paying . The stimulus package wasn't designed to bring us 'great fortune" . it was designed to prevent more job loss and a depression, which it did. please tell me the bad ideas you are referring to. and do you really think he still has no experience ?

[MSG685]

@2bpilot great .he would be doing even better if the right would be willing to govern .

[eajinabi]

@2bpilot Are you in guantanimo bay posting this? Please explain how its been bad for you. Please dont use the "I am unemployed because of Obamma" excuse.

[check537]

It's not a double standard because Biden and Palin were not equivalent candidates. As an example, at the time Palin probably could not have named the leaders of the world, especially not by first name.

[anthonym267]

Biden is such a con. But hes funny as hell!

[eajinabi]

@anthonym267 not as funny if sarah palin could have been VP. Hilarious

[bluedemon245]

msnbc what a joke

[lovanurse]

Joe Biden is one of the coolest white men on the planet. He supports his leader wholeheartedly. He's just cool.

[HayateAce]

@lovanurse Hmm, you think old Plugs is cool eh? Seems your standards are set really, really low. Congrats.

[SPFrobber]

wow. lame. biden makes up shit to win? why would he do that?

[darthspeaks]

They told John F Kennedy about the New World Order and he disliked it so they killed him.

[nutbagbrew102]

why does obama fear free thoughts?? or free speach ? for the same reason he got into becoming the president , by having the unions and chicago machine and bankers hide very detail of his bad upbringing and expose just how far out on the left he really is , but even diamonds have flaws - you just need the right spyglass to see it and now his flaws are being exposed.

[finerbiner]

Biden is just determined to say something thoughtless and stupid so he can get some attention. Thank goodness we have gone back to the VP not really doing anything.

[SMFCPA]

Joe Biden is the court jester of the West Wing and a national laughing stock. So is his boss.

[mol3898]

can you say god complex

[GeraSchmidt]

THIS is BO's foreign advisor, right? LOL OMG! Help Us !!!

[LanaLuther]

Bottom line is that every newly elected president will be tested! What Biden said was they will find out that Obama has "steel in his spine". What is so bad with that? We would have made a spectacle if Palin had said such a thing because we are still getting to know her...it's only been 2 MONTHS. Yes, that does mean that we will scrutinize everything she says until Nov.4 . Most of us are fascinated by her b/c she is a joke. Most of us are asking "How the heck did she get pick for VP?"

[kjwhite90]

Interesting you call her a joke when the vice president elect is predicting his boss will have to deal with a major international issue because everyone except you and your party members knows he is not ready for the job. Are you born without the ability to see two sides to an issue or is it just part of being a partisian democrat?

[LanaLuther]

We all know in the past EVERY newly elected president gets tested. Biden is just stating the facts and don't underestimate this man (Obama)-a compliment. Palin is not a partisan issue. It doesn't matter who picks her as VP (republican, independent, green, democratic), I would say the same thing...she is a joke! You should check out her recent interviews. She is everywhere winning about the media. She could not answer most of the questions during the VP debate.

Why is your screen name kjwhite90?

[asham9]

Spotty media coverage?  The media only covers what's favorable to Obama.

[ChopstickBrando]

@asham9

Why?

[darthspeaks]

@asham9 Bump up this comment. This Asham9 is brilliant for saying this - and brave.

[higoshimaru]

@asham9 no...networks like fox do the exact oposite

[zpistola]

biden is an idiot! a dull old fool, much like mccain!

[Edgeoforever]

Vote Obama and die! Isn't this the subject of this story? The media needs to stop covering itself and cover the candidates for a change

[olh1152]

What you think now EDGE?

[JonM90]

How come no one talk about what Biden said? This a should be real discussion about how international relations works, not more campaign analysis.

[partypeoplediedie]

Holy shit. Dan. I would have never expected to see him see something so obvious and accept it as fact. He still believes the ANG memos are real, after all...

[BUDDAWG2004]

uhm... joe you are not allowed to talk to anyone,nobody

[Mayion23]

Joe Lebermen what ever his name is say the same thing...such hipos

[Argos357]

obama akhbar!!!

[jediwill1974]

Credit to Joe S. for finding his conservative balls again and exposing this story to the nation. Even though 90% of the people who watch MSNBC are obama supporters maybe that 10% who may be on the fence saw this and changed their minds. Thank God for the internet so this can get the coverage it deserves

[starposition]

Sounds like someone is trying to put the fix in, then .. since when does a US citizen not have a right to file suit?

[starposition]

This is about Berg V Obama ... stick to the subject at hand.

[stanich054]

Biden doesent really commit gaffes, rather he is appealing to members of a politucal party with lower expectations, and lower intelligence. B.O. could better serve us with a quaint tap dance, or some shine rag poppin"

[Flession]

This was on MSNBC?

[cindyfromfalls]

imagine if something were to happen to mccain and palin became president...what do you think the rest of the world would do then and how well do you think she would handle this........Biden did not commit a gaffe here...he was pointing out that Obama can handle ANYTHING!!!!!!!

[jediwill1974]

Are you serious?!?!? WTF! lol

[rentacop30]

He must've had another brain aneurysm he's keeping secret

[jay2thaudy]

Is the GOP a bunch of 5 year olds or something. "If Sarah said it!! If Sarah said it!!"

[BIGMEL1981]

[1911arthur]

Palin, lied to a 3rd grader about the duties of Vice President!

She doesn't even know the duties of the job she wants!

She cannot lead us, ever! She's a dummy!

[dookdawg214]

I must be missing something here. Why is this statement so shocking? I listened to it and it didn't surprise me at all.

[starposition]

And, for all the screaming lefties out there .. let's assume you are in Court and you have evidence that will clear you. Do you have your attorneys refuse to produce the evidence for months on end, as DNC/Obama has done? Or do you do what you are REQUIRED to do and cough up the evidence, especially with a Federal Judge issuing the order?

Think LOGICALLY for a brief, shining moment. Ask yourself those questions. Under the law, motivations usually don't matter. EVIDENCE does. Period.

[tgear77]

The FEC filed an act of Dismal on Oct. 21 on the grounds that Berg has no standing to file this case.

[starposition]

Um, if the Berg v Obama suit was garbage, why are the DNC's lawyers refusing the Federal Judge's orders to produce the documents?

They had 30 days to do so, and they DEFAULTED. Under the law, Berg has every right - and Berg has asked the Court - to rule in his favor and declare Obama not an American citizen. It will be interesting to see what happens on this.

And before you come back with 'its a garbage suit' what happens when you REFUSE a Judge's order?

[tgear77]

I don't know...why don't you ask the Bush Administration. They refuse to obey judge's rulings, subpoenas, acts of Congress, etc.

[bjpacas]

Before the selection of VP's the press was harping on how critical that "first decision," would be.

BO selected Joe six term.

The choice still doesn't impress me.

It was stupid.

Amazing to see NBC mention Joe's remark.

[PatriotMusicMatt]

Empty vessels make the loudest sounds... and the media is not about to expose the emptiness at the core.

[indymaestro]

Epic fail!

One must admit at this present moment, however, that nothing will phase the Obamessiah and his vacuous hordes. They'll keep playing out this farce until the very end.

[JohnR22926]

Biden is correct. World leaders are some smart, ruthless motherfuckers. Don't think for one minute they're Obama-bots or taken in by Obama's "cuteness" or indimidated by the fact he's black.

Putin, or the Iranian asshole with push Barry hard and fast. Just like Khrusheve bitch-slapped Kennedy and we had the Cuban Missile Crisis. Same thing.

And I doubt very much if Obama is up to the task. He's a charistmatic, but empty suit.

[luvguins]

What a surprise, Joe. Hamas, Hezbollah, Libya, and Cuba endorse Obamass because they know he's a pussy. They will test him and he'll fail the test.

[TrekkieAtlantis]

McCAin/Palin 08

[melgar1997]

And he is going to need help! That is what he said in the uncut version. What a knob Biden is. Release the brain scans!

[jhtrico1850]

Fucking liberal elite media.

[tgear77]

Berg v. Obama is a piece of crap lawsuit. Berg is a 9-11 Truther who is filing this suit not out of concern for our democracy, but because he wants to spoil Obama's chances to be elected. The only funny thing is that this is not a GOP attack. Berg is a Hilary Clinton booster who is simply pissed off that his candidate was beaten and wants revenge. The case was filed in July and look how little attention it has received. Why? Because all intelligent people recognize it for the nuisance suit it is

[NeilSagan]

On September 19, 2007, Rather filed a $70 million lawsuit against CBS, its former parent company Viacom, CBS President and CEO Leslie Moonves, Viacom chairman Sumner Redstone and Andrew Heyward, former president of CBS News. Rather accused the network and its ownership and management of making him a "scapegoat" in the Killian story. wiki

[gunnyranger2]

Joe "foot in mouth" Biden is high!

[PatriotMusicMatt]

Bias in endemic to most of the media. That's why we're here on YouTube. MSNBC even put on article on the top of their website today about ending the Electoral College! Why not just ignore the Constitution (and my vote) completely since they're so committed to Socialism?

The solution: We each need to cancel cable and satellite TV until all the bias media get the message. I'd like to see us be able to pay for only the channels we want and not give a cent to bias organizations like MSNBC.

[NeilSagan]

Didn't Dan Rather forge George Bush's national guard paperwork two weeks before the 2004 election and get fired from CBS for it!! Morning Joe must have gotten him to appear for cheap.

[crdave]

what?!?! where do you get your news, nickelodeon?

[SigalaSigala]

So soon we forget!

Wanna piss off a conservative? Lie to him.

Wanna piss off a liberal? Tell him the truth.

[tgear77]

He did not forge those papers. His producer did not do the research to check the authenticity of those documents in his rush to scoop the other networks. Rather, if guilty of anything, was wrong to go along with it in order to get "the Big Story" out there. The producer was fired by CBS and Rather was asked to sit out the last two weeks of the election.

[NeilSagan]

Is Obama half black or half white? I wish McCain was so erratic and cranky and clueless.

[Otacon237]

Whether he's half white or half black is irrelevant since he's 100% communist.

[oklahomatim]

The whole reason I clicked on this video was to see Dan Rather's opinion on this comment, so why on Earth was it cut short??

[skydogz1]

Biden is creepy.

[heatsketch]

why is dan rather still on tv?

[MidNightRider2001]

I'm betting that test will be World War 3. Good luck everyone.

[TAXtheAtheist]

Obama is a savage...

He'll butcher our paychecks, our jobs, the economy, the newspapers, the radio programing, Christian Churches, Our constitution...etc...gun rights...etc...

[SeekerNLife]

Biden is right...for once.

Oh wait, didn't he also say that Obama has no experience to be President?

The question is, was this a Gaffe?

Or was Biden trying to prepare people for what a lot of us already know...that our enemies will see Obama as weak, and they will have to test him.

NObama!

No way. Not ever!

[atomikmindfu]

He didnt say because of Obama ther would be a crisis. He said, "if we win" meaning if we win as opposed to, if they win theyd have to face it. Who ever wins will have to face it.

Dont be so damn stupid!

[spookynshadow]

Biden.. open his mouth and insert his ASS!!! Shit and all!If Obama looses this election, I guess we Conseratives have Biden to thank just a tad..ROTFL

[Bassfooler]

oops Great video Pineapple . *****

[Bassfooler]

Great Vid Emerald *****

[Bassfooler]

Sounds to me like obama has his brother osama have plans to perform a pearl harbor on America Again !

[emeraldguard4mccain]

5*****

check out my new video Barack Obama RoboCall 1# spread this video share with friends and family and leave it on peoples answering machines

[LadyCitizen]

Sorry Biden, but 'he is no John Kennedy.' Long way from it. Obama is not experienced enough to run this country.

[PatriotMcCain]

Exactly, if Sarah Palin had said this Bill Maher, Jon Steward, Colbert and the 90% liberal media would go APE SHIT!!!

Fucking liberals and their constant lies, distortions and double standards... fuck em!

You want to piss off a conservative? Tell him a lie!

You want to piss off a liberal? Tell him the truth!

NObama, fuck his hateful fascist zombie followers!!

Screw the patronizing sold-out pro-Obama media: vote McCAIN PALIN '08!

Country first.

[GodSaveOurNation]

Barack Heussin Obama and Company are America's worst nightmare...Wake Up People!!!

John McCain and Sarah 2008

[ToddonCapeCod]

Not sure why they went to the dinosaur, the Rathersaurus, for his opinion.

If it weren't for the internet exposing his lies, during the last election, he might still have a steady job!

[ToddonCapeCod]

"Steel in his spine" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHA

[jgpeppers]

Damn straight, Obama has all the worst traits of a narcissist coward. He doesn't want to be held accountable for anything! (See 130 Present votes; Bail out response) Biden proly is scared shitless that obama is going to try to prove himself-not to mention his idea of reinstating a possible draft. I wouldn't be surprised if Biden is warning us, and hoping his ticket possibly loses, out of fear for his country. Maybe he's onto the smoke and mirrors? It's too bad his supporters aren't yet.

[JMcH]

Obviously Biden's statement was so stupid and outrageous that even the most hardcore Republican-haters have to admit it.

[nickbr38]

To every McCain humper and Palin sniffer, it is fantastic to see you all squirming at the realisation that you are losing your boney grip on power that your party has abused for the last 8 years.

Get used to.

[JMcH]

Keep deep-throating your Obamessiah.

[JohannaPalacio001]

Obama is a joke!

McCain/Palin 08!

[chattingcat]

JoBi + J.O.K.E. Thanks. Great video:)

[THE74MALDITO]

I would just like to say thank you Joe Biden for the heads up I voted early for McCain

[eajinabi]

@THE74MALDITO How did voting for McCain work out for you?

[shonester]

Obviously. The media has had their claws out on Palin. Then again she's more interesting and probably gets better ratings than talking about Joe Biden.

The media has distracted from his lies on foriegn policy - regarding Hezbollah and Lebanon - and other facts like Biden voting for the Iraq War, even though Obama considered that a symbol of poor judgement when speaking of Hillary. Strategy: Target Palin and hide flaws in Biden.

[rebelstang]

Howdy! It Could Be a Gaf?

I Actually Think,Joe Biden,

Is Warning, America!

Remember What J.B. Said About,

Berrack Hussain Obama = B.O. = B.H.O. = osamabama?

Most of it wasn't good!

GOD BLESS, America & Our Troops!

McCain/Palin,08"Keep America, FREE & STRONG!

[jgpeppers]

"We're gonna have to make some incredibly tough decisions in the first two years. So I'm asking you now, I'm asking you now, be prepared to stick with us. Remember the faith you had at this point because you're going to have to reinforce us." - Joe Biden

that's reassuring from a guy who votes 'present' on tough issues. Whose college grades are sealed. Who had three do-overs on Russia-Georgia. Who said 10000 died from a tornado that killed like 12 people..um ya, it's a no brainer, we need McCain

[jgpeppers]

MSNBC didn't even play the worst of Biden's quotes, "I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate," " I've forgotten more about foreign policy than most of my colleagues know, so I'm not being falsely humble with you...This guy has it. But he's gonna need your help. Because I promise you, you all are gonna be sitting here a year from now going, 'Oh my God, why are they there in the polls? Why is the polling so down? Why is this thing so tough?'

[THE74MALDITO]

of course MSM wont cover this but coming from the mouth of someone who does polling they are using a formula that oversamples Democrats and uses recent REGISTRATIONS as a part of that formula, an Obama staffer was quoted on Red State as saying at best Obama is tied nationally

[xprettyxinxpunk7]

Of course half the media covered it. It's Joe Biden. God forbid that the media picks up on the Democratic ticket gaffes.

This is the most biased, disgusting trash this election.

[joedoufu]

When Dan Rather thinks liberal media bias is a problem, LIBERAL MEDIA BIAS IS A PROBLEM!

[jgpeppers]

haha, seriously

[utubeusa1]

Wow, DAN RATHER tells it straight for once. WE NEED MORE PEOPLE TO STAND UP and call the bias for what it is...the american people are being DEFRAUDED by Obama and the media and we will all pay DEARLY

[jgpeppers]

Media sucks. They're not doing their jobs. Stupid motherfuckers need to be held accountable. Nice job mainstream media, you don't elect our officials. WE DO! Get back to journalism and cut out the slanted propaganda.

Bring down the government? Bring down the media. They don't speak for us.

[utubeusa1]

Amen. The media is literally DEFRAUDING the american people on behalf of Obama. It is putting OUR LIVES IN DANGER FOR GOD'S SAKES!
