PoliticsTV @ Yearly Kos '07: Markos' Keynote

[martintod2006]

Is it just me or are liberals more attractive than cons?

[frozenconcentrate]

Seems kinda gay.

[gangstarphil]

so it all makes sense now.  cat lady is a dailyKoser!

[jrf321]

"progressives".. yeah there is nothing progressive about these people..

[jrf321]

jesus christ.. it's a breeding pot for ignorance and morons.. I wish all these people would just go away.

Oh cry me a river.

[BattleofTours732]

Thank you, Karl Rove. Due to your hard work, the corpulent and drunk alarmist Al Gore and the confused and lying John Kerry never made it to the White House! Thank you! Youre a great American.

[wywoody]

Kos is not scary. It is a place where the banal cut and paste pablum of OPOL is thought to be profound. If anyone really tries to address issues, a tractor pulling a flatbed trailer pulls up and the troll patrol blows them away. That the Dems cater to this paranoid cult is what keeps me independent even though I want many of the same things.

BAGHDAD - Sunni Arab Bloc Quits Iraqi Unity Government

[BattleofTours732]

BAGHDAD - U.S.-led forces swooped into the Shiite militia stronghold of Sadr City on Wednesday, killing 32 suspected militants and detaining 12 others in fighting and an airstrike targeting alleged smuggling networks from Iran. HURRAH FOR AMERICA!

[Plisko1]

I know I've said his already but I find it increadibly ironic that there is not ONE KOS critic here that has contributed anything except insults. These are the same people who say that Liberals are angry and vile and they can't handle reasoned debate. It sounds like they can even live up to their own accusations. Debate me with facts and reason you cowards or shut the hell up because you all look like 10 year olds on a playground right now.

[wywoody]

psst plisko, you're sounding a little angry and insulting. Try this fact, the Kos crowd is humorless, unless you like the same two jokes ad nauseam (Bush can't read, Repubs are greedy) You look like the 12 year old trying to pick a fight with the 10 year olds cause the 11 year olds keep kicking his ass.

[Plisko1]

KOS is a forum that allows lots of people with lots of different ideas to have an open dialog with each other. They are talking about real issues that effect the involve the future of our country. Your counter point is that they make bad jokes? I don't think that really explains why this place is supposed to be so scary to people. Or how Marcos is a comme.

[ourgoldens]

That was a good speech, he hit all the right notes and avoided making it about just him.

[fakename127]

Bill Orlly can shove it.

[MournelitheCalix]

Tell me BoT #732, still drinking more of the facist coolaid supporting party above constitution and country?

[fverona]

very good speech - very positive - it's worth mentioning that we still have a lot of work to do because we need to get rid of democratic politicians that respond more to corporate donors and lobbying, instead of the people - Lieberman was not the only bad apple - so let's keep working and fighting to democratize our party and our country!

[Moviebro]

Great speech.Liberals with a backbone and conservatives squirm like the bitches they are.Conservatives have fucked this country for the last time.Not that Democrats are much better.But this country needs to change NOW!For the better this time.

[wywoody]

You have done SO much,Kos.  You convinced Lamont to waste millions to make Lieberman the most powerful man in the senate and you got Webb and Tester in to vote just like the Repubs they replaced on FISA.

[Cerebus555]

It's amazing how this little hate monger can act so much like the pied piper to his minions of angry little leftists. Just wait till he pisses off Hillary-he'll be history.

[badsysop]

Markos has to repeatedly mention his wife to make people know he isn't gay, I'm sure.

Anyway, that guy has one of the most annoying voices I've ever heard in my life.

I shall fire off some great fireworks for those two lefty jerkoffs that died that he was crying about.

By the way: Cats SUCK. Get a real pet, liberal morons...

[ambientdiscord]

its just his accent get over it.

[kiaora12]

True Progressives like Cindy Sheehan have given up on the Democrats because they are a different side of the same coin playing corrupt politics while the American People pay the price with loss of civil liberties and more funding for an unjust and illegal war.

Kos shouldn't be up there smiling - he should be crying. He should be weeping for the state of this nation. The Dems have done nothing to stop this illegal administration -- don't assume we will all vote Democrat again in '08.

[willmasur]

@ kiaora12 well said

[Plisko1]

KOS is not the Democrats. They are progressives. I'm all for third parties but the duopoly is too entrenched right now. KOS is just the kind of social force that could clean up the Democrats until the bigger picture can be fixed.

[kiaora12]

Kos is full of it. His sole purpose is to placate liberals while America moves further into a police state.

He CENSORS and BANS any person questioning the events of 9/11 with his Donut brigade. Just try to bring up the fact that this administration has lied to us on countless occasions but must somehow be telling the truth about 9/11 and you'll be banned.

[prass7]

Great

[rightwing76]

Lincoln knew how to handle these kinds of traitors.

[masterhook]

wow, how brave of you to bring up Lincoln. This guy is not a traitors, he is a patriot. How dare you call a man who loves this contry a traitor just become you don't belave what he thinks in. You my frind are one step away from being a terrorist.

[tonycrago]

While Kos was in the US Army, fighting in Gulf War I - chickenhawks like Handjob Hannity and other right wing loud mouths were sitting around trying to figure out how to get out of defending their country.

[denmec29]

He wasn't in GW1. He served during GW1.

[patsagainstrats]

I bet the tears flowed at the Abu Musab al-Zarqawi memorial service. I believe Barack Hussein Obama gave the eulogy. Zarqawi was one of the original nutrooters.

[Plisko1]

Wow. More reasoned, fact filled debate from the KOS critics.  Such skill with words. How can we possibly stand against all that high minded talk!?

[patsagainstrats]

I guess your loss is still a bit fresh yet, huh? Not to worry, I'm sure he's ensconced in the arms of his 72-year-old virgin, the one with the black eye.

[brilliantatbreakfast]

I take back all the things I said about you being an asshole, Markos. Even if you did think I run a bed and breakfast instead of a blog at your Hoboken, NJ book signing in 2006. This was a beautiful, lovely speech to close an amazing weekend.

[ToddonCapeCod]

Markos, you commie fuck.

I'd like to kick you in your ovaries

[Plisko1]

It's amazing how rich the critics are with facts and reasoned debate.

[factusnonverbus]

Better than his speech last year. Markos' refusal to "lead" the netroots is what makes him such a great sheppherd of it. The old saw about people who seek power are the least suited to have it and all.

[geeoxid]

HAHA my sons job or maybe my daughter....he's made such a good speech wow stunning reall great

[TheDailyBackground]

Right on!

[sabymoon]

We need to help each other and stop being so greedy, and afraid. We need to get back control of our world from those who only see it as something to rape and pillage.

[nationalaudbons]

Great speech, Markos. I particularly liked that hug with Sam Seder at the end. I first heard of you on his show.

[commercep]

Threatened, eh? A political force which won't back down to your conservative bigoted views. This is what has been needed in the Democratic Party for a long time. Prepare for a Democractic President next year, bitches!

[slosh415]

powerbookg started it!!

[bkhoffman]

Name calling wow... that's a first, good for you...feel better now? Is this the best you got; name calling? Grow up you American Citizen, and a "Child Of God." May Peace be restored in all of our Souls!

[tuberreg]

What an amazing event. It gives us all hope to know there are other people in this country who care about where we are going. We can do better and we will.

[Meatpieandtatters]

Thanks for putting all the great content and words in video...

[MaskedKat]

Thanks, Kos! No way will I miss YearlyKos 3!

[seanoxide3]

I'm sure you mean the newly named Netroots Nation Convention. Kos has wanted it to be less about the Daily Kos website and seem more open and I look forward to attending next year, as I did this year.

[southerneditor]

Whatever it's called, I'm not missing it.

[BigFellaOC]

Thank You Markos, and the rest of the people who make up the netroots... Congrats to us on our progress..

[liveleaker]

Heartfelt honor and gratitude? Today's liberal activist has neither a brain nor scintilla of character.

[Plisko1]

Good Lord Liveleaker why are you spewing your hateful baseless comments all over the KOS video postings? Are you hung up on something? Can't you argue with facts? It's as if you have no real discussion or debate skills. . . just played out insults. Maybe I'll start calling YouTube a hate site because people like you visit.

[dangangry]

Great video! Hope to be there in person next year!

[dangangry]

Great speech! Hope to make it next year

[moultar]

Thank God for the Great Orange Satan!!

[bellsboy]

this man is an american hero we need to reform the Democratic party to rid those whole will not stand with progressivism and instead are becoming 'obstructionists'
