  • Hey asshole, obama should have been working on the economy. Barry still hasn't done shit for jobs in America 3 yrs into his term asshole.

  • cenk, your not much to talk either on FAT ppl

  • @bolatluver29 Lolwut

  • lol the conservatives are mental lmao

    how true

  • I am so happy Rio got the olympics, I would love to go

  • mistakenly thumbs down

  • Hey Rio is the murder capital of south america. Now thats more crappier than Chicago.

  • 50% of Chicago citizens didnt even want it, they can smell the corruption and tax hikes coming a mile away.

  • I totally agree, Hey US lost, let Brazil shine you fucking morons

  • I live in phoenix, az - basically ground zero for conservatives, and this is BS.

    I don't know of ONE person who pulled against Chicago. Not one.

    Don't know where this started. Maybe some right wing wacko said something on the radio, but no REAL people - right or left- wanted Chicago to lose.

    This is lame.

  • *cough* glenn beck and rush limbaugh on national TV *cough*

  • That's my point. Too many people take their cues from those talking heads.

    But in the real world I saw NOBODY pulling against Chicago.

    And we are pulling for them to solve their terrible crime problem too.

  • Bitter Republicans would rather have our country fail than give Obama any victory. Unpatriotic and what ever happened to respect for the commander in chief while we are at war and "country first?"

  • 1. if none of the democrats payed taxes, there would not be enough for a country to run on. 2. Can you give me a quote and source? (no sarcasm btw) 3. respect for Bush in any other country was 0, there was no reason for respect other then that he was the president. 4. If by military you mean the guys who ordered the torture of detainees, smear is hardly the word to use.

  • Humm, Young Turks, according to History they were the evil, heartless,bloody perpetrators of GENOCIDE against the poor people of Armenia...and other defenseless countries. Don't even think about pulling it here, fatboy,

  • Obama believes his good press far too often, relies too much on support from his trusted advisers -- instead of being open to genuine critical analysis -- and seems to feel that the American people are too "unevolved" to understand his political message and methods. All of these realities are just pushing the president further into an altered state. They're shaping his worldview and it's having a disastrous impact on the lives of average Americans.

  • axeman...love your LIE analogy on your page. Right on !!

  • > GOOGLE: Obama culture of corruption Chicago

  • DAMN STRAIGHT brotha. It would be my honor to join you in taking those stupid fucks down.

    btw, Bill Bennett making that "fat comment about Chicago," though somewhat true, is like Fred Phelps teaching someone the art of using your brain.

  • i am a indenpendent and i really see that you are really blind to your ownself righteousness about your unpatriotic racist republican party. you want me to tell you want really suchs those rightwing Nazis have fucked up this country with a loser & lier like Bush. i can truly see why the republicans have lost the election. you always try to hard to build someone that is always going to be a loser. example Palin, a headless chicken have more brains then she do. but yet you morons voted for her.

  • "Palin, a headless chicken have more brains then she do. but yet you morons voted for her."

    I think in this case it'd be a "headless turkey" right? :D

  • @ starvol is that mmm the sound you make when you and Limbaugh get together and take your hillbilly heroin?

  • Obama, Michele and opra went over to Denmark to secure the Olympics. The IOC rejected the offer. Obama and his entourage lost the bid. Mmm Mmm Mmm

  • Mmm Mmm Mmm the messiah should have flown his homies to Afghanistan to address the issues there, after all I seem to remember something about a war going on there. That is one taxpayer funded obama road trip that I would support. The only one.

  • purplemelt it sounds like your a vet my friend I DIDN'T ASK YOU TO FIGHT FOR MY FREEDOM#1,what is FREEDOM in todays society... the slave needed freedom what is your freedom rhetoric about#2,if your a soldier all you do is take orders anyway!so take my orders! stay OUT the army ,live with your wife and kids and be a good man,and that's an order., salam.

  • > GOOGLE: obama rezko chicago culture of corruption

  • Wow, BLCalifornia, you know a lot about Chicago form google don't you? Try living here your whole life...you don't have a clue.

  • How long did it take you to come up with that dumb s&^#?

  • Fuck face you do know our last President could not walk and talk at the same time right?

  • Who said anything about Obama getting INVOLVED in the case? My point is, its a shame that Obama had a "beer summit" for the cop and professor a few months back, but has yet to even comment on the PROMINENT violence of Chicago.Of course people are killed everywhere in the US but do u not read? Do u not know the "stats" of Chicago?U think that Chicago's reputation of being one of the most violent and corrupt states in the US goes unnoticed in other countries?

  • I don't like Olympics that much. But I do wonder if both sides are just do all these for spites now.

    Pro-sports are the real sports, every sports should be going pro. A lot of Olympic sports have the potential.

  • You can see he's lying in this vidoe...He says one second that he read asking if Obama rallying to get the Olympics was a mistake...right?...Then, He says it was not a mojortiy that thought it was a bad idea, it was just more than thought it was a good idea...

    Is that not a majority?

    Another thing...He likes that America didn't get the Olympics, which makes him patriotic...and when Repubs are glad about it as well, it makes them un-patriotic.

    This guy is a total douche.

  • He likes it for the right reasons.

  • Nope. He shouldn't be jetsetting around the world for the Olympics. We need to get our house in order, here first . High King Obama thinks showing off to the world is more important then fixing our damn economy, giving us real healthcare reform, nationalizing our auto-industry to start manufacturing the EV-1 car again, and throwing every lobbyist out of the D.C. City limits. etc etc. Do what you promised Obama or go back to Chicago.

    P.S. Chicagoans don't even want the Olympics you putz!

  • Wow your ignorant. 1) the olympics are a boost to any economy. 2) health care reform is at a stand still whether Obama is in the country or not 3)Pretty sure if the automobile industries can leave their company for weeks at a time and they end up being fine, I think the president can leave the country for 2 days to further foriegn policy 4) everything you described is controlled by congress or the treasury not the president himself, it's called checks and balances.

  • vote out the 2 party system. In God we Trust - not a man, not a president. Go home if you disagree. Ron Paul is still correct - to bad both parties are so full of thier own indoctrinations and neglect teh Constitution which is for ALL.

  • who the hell cares for the olympics for pete's sake - we 1 out of every 4 homeless in the states are our OWN war veterans - the guys who lay down thier lives for OUR freedom - respect the troops -not the lying lawyers in Congressional seats playing chess with their minds and bodys. wake up sheeple.

  • More power to British Columbia - 2010 Olympics in Whistler/Blackomb - voted SAFEST most LIVEABLE city in the world .. how many times?? and yah IM American. Wake up sheeple. its time for a 3rd party in 2010. enuff is enuff - same old puppets, different year, since b4 Reagan.

  • meanwhlie - the jobless rate continues- but oh how convienient BOTH dems and repubs (neo-cons) use slander and propaganda to ignore the facts - if the cops cant control the crime/thugism that is RAMPANTLY OUT OF CONTROL in Chicago - do u think Denmark or any other country wants to come to Chicago. NOPE. Turn off ur TV and read between the lies. Veterans are homeless and this guy and the rest of his "diciples" could care less.

  • the answer to the USA's deficit IS every hollywood idiot (actor/actress) should take 1million$ out of their overpaid /overhyped self's worth and PAY bk on OUR national debt.. THAT INCLUDES OPRAH. and yah -all you Obama voters who are jobless - yah you, and all of the American citizens paid for those 2 jets - one for him -one for her - Chicago - Crime Capitol of the United States - google it. vote out the 2 party system in 2010.

  • I love Cenk. And his common sense.

    yeah I was gonna say, wouldn't Rio be like the first South American city to hold the Olympics? I'm really happy for them.

    Unpatriotic asscunts...

    Can't we ship this Bill Bennett guy somewhere where there aren't any human inhabitants?

  • another brick in the wall of the right wings anti american ways....the question is how will the media cover / spin this....my guess is they will try to blame liberals and obama for it some how.....as usual

  • Lol, Chicago is the 2nd fattest city in the U.S. (first being Detroit).

    It is also the only state with mandatory P.E.

    BTW, I live in IL wooo!!!!!

  • Dallas voted for Obama

    Houston Voted for Obama

    Are these cities Anti-american?

  • What's wrong with that? It was not Obama that went to Denmark; it was Narcissus ... his alter EGO!

  • Well. Anarchism is would agree is not left, but the others I mention come from the left or sympathize with the left wing. Most Marxists I've observed has a left wing streak to them. Also throwing rocks at the police is not a smart idea. And you call me uninformed? Throwing rocks at the cops and expect not to get arrested lacks common sense. That's exactly why G20 are always violent, and why people end up getting arrested.

  • Well I believe it's safe to say that Marxists, Anarchists, Communists, Humanists and these Anti Capitalists at the G20 rallies are from the left wing side of things. If these were Nazis, Anti Communists, John Birchers, and Confederate protesting Socialism I would say they were from the right side of things. So please don't play around with semantics. These were mostly left wing crowds down there and its seems like your making excuses for there out of control behavior now.

  • all 3 of the other countries also sent their leaders...we would have looked aloof if Obama hadn't have gone.

    But the GOP would have criticised no matter what he did. He could pet a puppy and they would say he was being unhygenic.

  • chicago beats children to death

  • Cenk was too hard on Bill over the weight issue. Bill was only repeating someone's statements.

  • That guy on CNN is so unamerican! He wants Rio instead of chicago!? TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TERRORIST! TERRORIST! TERRORIST! TERRORIST! TERRORIST! TERRORIST! TERRORIST! TERRORIST! TERRORIST! TERRORIST! TERRORIST! TERRORIST! TERRORIST! TERRORIST! TERRORIST! TERRORIST!

  • Exactly, aquaknot. To quote Bush: "you're either with us, or you're with the terrorists."

    Therefore, using the logic of their favorite party boy, they're all terrorists. Gotta love Bush-logic.

  • Wolf Blitzer is still on TV? That guy is dumber than a comedian.

  • Olympics are a waste of public money.

  • so is the war in Iraq!

  • How can he possibly vie for the olympics when he has OTHER STUFF to do? There's the economy, healthcare, the war...

    What, are we to think that Obama can somehow MULTITASK? That's PREPOSTEROUS! NOBODY CAN POSSIBLY DO MORE THAN ONE THING AT A TIME!

    SO UNAMERICAN!

  • Conservatives have ENTITLEMENT issues...

  • Actually, Charleston SC is pretty liberal.

    - Sincerely, a Charleston resident and Obama supporter.

  • I think it's ridiculous that Obama made this bid for the Olympics to come to Chicago with all of the violence thats been going on over there. I'm disappointed that he hasn't addressed what happened to the 16 yr old high school honor roll student who was beaten to death by OLDER teenagers because he was from a "rival" school. Instead of going to bid for the olympics, he should have addressed the issues of HIS "hometown".

  • Yeah, the nerve of him trying to bring jobs and money to the community.

    Boo... ?

  • someone is killed in every major city everyday. and not every one of those murders is captured on video and posted online. does that mean no american city should have the olympics?

    and you dont think that the president should get involved in olympic bids, but you think that he should get involved in a local murder case that has already been solved? wow...

  • In the words of Bill Maher "It looks like Night grew a head!"

  • isn't it a bit too expensive for olympics right now?

  • It would've provided millions of jobs for Americans! Even contracts from outside Chicago: building contracts, electrics, engineering, adverizing, all the elaborate preparation would've required millions of workers, which means loads of work, & thus money, for US ppl ! But no! That wouldn't be good for the repugs.

    The reich prefer US unemployment any day, it seems.

  • Remember how the reich wing lectured liberals for 8 years that it's unamerican not to support the american president. Then they said stuff like "support the president, or get out." Funny how the hard right tune changes so quickly. We must of had an election or something.

  • so two wrongs make a right?

  • TYT is the unvarnished truth. Nothing this guy ever said was untrue. The phonies can be found over at right wing blogs, not here. Keep up the good work, Cenk. Your haters are simply jealous their own blogs stink.

  • rio is beautiful woman on the beach and chicago is fat people eating

    haahahah that was funny :]

  • to answer this idiots question, "No! Now is not the time to be taking on more debt in the short-term for uncertain long-term profits, especially when one of America's top corrupt cities wants to host it!" Take care of health care and foreign relations. Were they planning on printing more money to pay for this?!

  • excellent point

  • i,m confused how TYT can talk about patriots when their site is like a trash talk show ,almost all the videos on this site are fluff , no substance , my Father was a patriot so i thought this video might help me understand , but after looking at the other videos i,m confused as to what this person could possibly have to qualify his video about patriots , a patriot would never cover the topics in 99% of their videos :O(

  • your right TYT is pretty much garbage, this guy should stick to his day job drinking beer and scratching his big furry belly.

  • it is a bad thing and here's why TYT: Obama has bigger fish to fry like Afghanistan! Why is it UNPATRIOTIC to expect Obama to TCB real issues before doing this kind of crap. TYT, you really dont see the big picture.

  • What about when Bush took a month long vacation after the invasion in Iraq? Don't you think Bush had better things to do than playing the back nine?

  • the difference is before Bush took leave he met with his cabinet, generals and secretaries first. We have soldiers who desperately need more support and Obama keeps putting general McChrystal off to do silly stuff like this and worst of all he failed.

  • How do you know that he is putting McChrystal off? Are you aware of every telephone convo, email, text message, or communication regarding Afghanistan? I really don't think you or I could ever know what goes on behind the scenes. Just because you don't see him talking about military strategy on TV doesn't mean that he isn't handling the situation. I think there is way more than you or I could ever know going on behind the scenes.

  • spoken like a true sheep, McChrystal asks for more troops Obama scratches his chin, all he has to do is approve it. Obama is supposed to be starting to meet with McChrystal this week, let see if it happens. In the meantime research the topic before talking like that. BTW all you thumbs downers wont remove my comments so give it up.

  • cjrush, you must be some king of brainless amoeba or something. He took one fucking day to go to Copenhagen.One fucking day to put Chicago on an even footing with all the other cities. Because guess what, they sent their leaders too.

    So let me get this strait, in one day he was going to fix Health care. Fix the economy. I'll tell ya the most productive thing he could have done in that one day.

    Get us the fucking Olympics, provided we were close in the first place (which we obviously weren't)

  • no actually your missing the point, the olympic campaign is just one example. the man never stops campaigning he's on talk shows, morning shows, he takes vacations and then speech after speech after speech AND NOTHING IS GETTING DONE. NOTHING! Prove me wrong, you wont.

  • and BTW, why Chicago? Ask that question? Why? if you ask me if any city deserves the Olympics here in America is MY city because we just paid millions out of our tax dollars to upgrade the training center here in Colorado Springs. Obama just wanted to pay his cronies, when will you wrap your brain around his out and out attempts to pay the special interests he so promised us he wouldn't pander to.

  • Hey, idiot, the US officially entered Chicago as it's bid for the Olympics over LA back in 2007....DURING THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION!

    Do some damn research before you spout out false right-wing propoganda.

  • ask me if I care about anything Bush did in 2007 WHEN THE FUCK ARE YOU SHEEP GOING TO MOVE ON.

  • Typical answer from a republican with a chip on his shoulder. The point is, Bush did plenty of rotten shit, but now that a democrat is in office, people like you have no problems making idiotic hypocrites of themselves all in the sake of politics.

    His trying to sell Chicago as a potential Olympic destination is not a big deal at all. Chicago not getting picked isn't some big defeat. It's such a non-issue that there's no point in even bitching, but you can bet republicans surely will.

  • haha Im not a republican you assumptive silly. I voted for Obama, Im just ahead of the game.

  • Good, then we're on the same page. I hate it when people will deny the obvious downside to voting in Obama. I think he was the better choice in this election, but that doesn't mean I have to like everything he does. It's about voting for the person you hate less.

    When I do hear people criticize him though, I can't help but wonder if they are only now paying attention closer since it's Obama, and if they completely missed the past 8 years.

    I don't listen to ignorant rants on Obama.

  • YES. They COMPLETELY oversee what just happened to us the past 8 years.

    It was RAMROD status every week.

  • But Bush did it... silly asshole, who cares what Bush did.

  • NYC, that's a good idea. Hmmm, what else is in NYC, the UN, the NYSE, and some of the most powerful men in the world as well as one of the most respected cities. Yeah, that's not asking for a terrorist attack or anything.

  • Isn't it up to congress in the end to decide if we send more troops? And why do you think he keeps on doing speaches and such? Mybe to try to get something done. He needs more than just him to actually do something. Ideas have to be supported. Its not a one man show. And mybe things would get done if everyone actually cared to help build ideas. Instead of spreading hate, and fear about everything that isn't them.

  • face it, he's not getting anything done, this is Jimmy Carter act 2.

  • He met with McChrystal last week.

  • Are you seriously trying to justify the lazy actions of a war-time, national crisis president. He took more vacation time than any other president in history, delved us into a war, economic crisis, and avoided national crises like Katrina and Midwest Flooding. NEWS FLASH: McChrystal doesn't know everything, Obama's done more in Afghan than Bush, he meets with his cabinet almost every other day and has not taken a single vacation day or sick day yet. Also, he talks to the people, Bush hid.

  • Damn, you got me.

  • I never said Bush was great did I? I never did, but for some reason you goofy Obamazombies always go back to: but Bush did this and Bush did that... who give a rats ass? So what I'm hearing is nothing really CHANGEd???

  • 1) you assume I'm an Obama supporter, when in reality, Obama's really starting to piss me off 2) It is important to look to the past because it inevitably effects our future 3) Obama has done more to change the way we fight in Afghanistan, look at health care, see Wall Street, support the education system, and battle the Climate Crisis than any president in over 20 years.

  • The president doesn't worry about one single topic incessantly, ever. Bush, Clinton, Reagan, Taft, FDR take your pick here all did little side tracked things like this. Bush took more days vacation than any president ever if i am remembering my numbers right and you can't say he didn't have afganistan or iraq to worry about. Plus, this would have brought jobs and money and tourism to the US, nothing like the olympics to say......jump start an economy.

  • since when did the olympics ever "jumpstart" an economy? the difference is before Bush took leave he met with his cabinet, generals and secretaries first. We have soldiers who desperately need more support and Obama keeps putting general McChrystal off to do silly stuff like this and worst of all he failed.

  • Just because you say the same thing over and over again doesn't make it right. Your like a serial killer, you think the more you kill the more right it will become.

  • updated 4:12 p.m. MT, Sun., Aug 30, 2009

    ANDREWS AIR FORCE BASE, Md. - President Barack Obama returned to Washington Sunday after a weeklong vacation on Martha's Vineyard. goofball...

  • Another list put out by the FBI. Top five most dangerous cities:

    1. Memphis, Tennessee

    2. Atlanta

    3. San Antonio

    4. Detroit

    5. Milwaukee

  • TYT always bring up Bush, he's not in office anymore. Dallas isn't one of the most violent cities in America like Chicago. I for one was rooting for Tokyo, but am glade Rio got. Congrats.

  • Dallas isn't one of the most violent cities? Did you even research that comment before you typed it? Dallas in recent years has been at the top of several of the most violent cities in America.

  • So much for "country first".

  • You see, most Americans dont see Chicago as American, but more like a 3rd world country. So saying it is unpatriotic to route agianst Chicago makes no sense. Again, Chicago was great back when whites ran it, but now blacks took it over...it is no 'heartland", thats for sure. It is...Zimbawe.

  • Most of them at the G20 rallies were liberal radicals along with Marxists and Anti Capitalist elements they're certainly weren't no conservatives at the anti G20 rallies. Ive heard some liberals make excuses and try to distance themselves away from the G20 rallies but the facts are it was a liberal event. Tea Party rally were Americans of mostly conservatives persuasion that were fed of with Bailouts and big government.

  • But no major news outlets were organising or promoting them. They were purely grassroots efforts.

  • So what it was "grassroots". By the looks of it these anti G20 rallies are a violent grassroots operation. You can say that the Tea party rallies were "astroturf" but they're were NO arrests and NO violence and the message got out unlike the liberal Anti G20 rallies. BTW liberal rallies were the first to popularize astroturfing and busing. Republicans just copied they're tactics. Now that the Republicans successfully used this tactic the liberals are screaming bloody murder.

  • Nobody took guns to G20 rallies.

    There was some violence, but that was because the police had a far more combative attitude towards them.

  • I wasn't a fan of the guns but nothing happened. And most apologists for the natural reckless violence behavior of the Anarchists and Marxists that smash up stores and throw dangerous things at the cops would blame the cops always at these G20 rallies. So i'm not surprised by your statement.

  • The ones that were using the rallies as an excuse for violence, were not so much idealists as people who like smashing things up.

    I know people who went to this kind of rally. The ones that were getting violent were not part of their group.

  • If a conservative group had similar thugs like the Anarchists in they're ranks breaking and tearing shit up. I wonder if the liberals and the media would have a different view about it? If the Anti G20 people don't root these thugs out of there ranks they will continue to be associated with them. The good suffers along with the bad elements.

  • The cops most of time respond to what the Anarchists and Marxists do at these rallies. They have a history of starting shit at these rallies. The cops are gonna just sit idlely by and watch these people tear up the streets while having things thrown at them by these thugs. Also why it is that at EVERY G20 rally there are scores of arrests but at the Tea party rally over 75,000 people not one arrest. Why is that?

  • comming from chicago and having been at the place where 10000 chicagoland area people were

    the emotion there is the hardest thing to get over

    but congrats to rio anyway

  • We conservatives are so happy that Chicago failed on the olympics! How can the ACORN city, a city full of black crime and dirty politics, deserve a shot at the olympics?...please. The world was like "no way".

    Chicago was great 100 years ago, but now it is taken over by blacks, so its not good anymore.

  • ... except Rio has it a lot worse...

  • So Chicago was overtaken by balcks?

    Thats why the Olympics don't deserve a shot in chicago

  • I am from Melbourne, I was gutted when Atlanta won. I still don't drink Coke.

    But on the upside, you don't have to cope with the stuff that comes with the Olympics, the traffic, the disruption, all of that stuff. The Olympics are a blessing AND a curse.

  • Okay, you neocon douchebag refills, the actual reason why Rio got the Olympics was because South America has yet to host an Olympic games.

    It had nothing to do with Obama, nothing to do with Oprah, nothing to do with anything at all except for the fact that South America has never had the games.

    And yet you dullards sit here and crow about his so called failure just like your stupid heroes.

    Fuck, you're all so stupid, it's painful.

  • This Young Turks host should be in Gitmo.

  • hey look the stimulus is going to work health care is going to pass. and your nieces and nephews are going to tell how wrong you where you buttnut

  • okay Obama was the president but bush did support it and you still swalow cum

  • You still can't spell. You must have had liberal teachers.

  • buttnut

  • you must be one of those retarded racist republicans. because if you know how to read you will see that i am a independent. like i have said a retarded republican !!!! oh liberals , liberals liberals !!! give it a fuckin rest man you sound so retarded like everyone in that conservative party. dude you sound like a broken record. with that liberal shit. i dont like the liberals to much. but i really hate those unpatriotic rightwing Nazi. they are turning away people from there racist party.

  • Oh yeah, call me racist because I don't like Obama. Be sure to blame Bush on your next meaningless rant. Those seem to be the only arguments you morons can come up with.

  • Dude I cant make out your rambling and incoherent statements. All I got was retarded fucking, independent...?

  • Obama failed and Chicago is a cesspool.Now Chicago is a cesspool with no Olympics and Obama is still a failure.

  • Conservatives wrap themselves in the flag and pretend to be constitutionalists, but they spout about secession and undermine the constitution every time they get power. They are utter frauds and finally being exposed for what they are.

  • i always have been saying that for years about how unpatritic those rightwing racist Nazis are. i think that those rightwinger would have sold out to hitler just to get out ever monorities out of this country. i am white and a independent am i dont like those Nazis attacking my country or my president. So go burn in hell you evil racist rightwing nazis !!!

  • got birf certificate?

  • do you ???? because that spelling tells me different ly.

  • hero

  • mmmmmm, moose jerky.

  • funny :)

  • peace to all and to all a good night

  • Looks like he shoved a kielbasa up his ass..ROFL

  • whoever gets to host the olympics would get plunged into unrecoverable debt ... if it's a foreign country, from the world bank. if it's a u.s. city, from the member banks of the Federal Reserve. case in study, los angeles, atlanta, foreign countries like china, russia, mexico, japan, spain. the host didn't reap great benefits from it, it incurred more debt bottom line.

  • Obama failed again, gee, big suprize.

  • lololol

    Again..and again...and again

    ROFL

  • Cenk I really hate all of this. It's like intelligence vs stupidty, nonsense, etc.

    This is an unfair fight man.

  • Olympics are worth $billions to your economy. Obama was right to try and help the USA win it.

  • Congrats to Rio, yessir. Showing some American loove...

  • In Chicago, Obama was a 'community organizer' and attorney for ACORN. As attorney he sued banks to make them give high risk housing loans to those who couldn't pay them. When the industry collapsed, he ran for president and blamed Bush for it. Obama SUED to make it happen and you stupid shits voted for him. Now you think Hugo Chavez is a 'human rights hero'. Pathetic morons.

  • Republicans lead every major poll, democrats have destroyed themselves this year. Bye bye dem congress next year.

  • how many of those polls have you voted in? those polls are just as contrived as you wanting your president to fail when you happen to be a citizen of the country he's leading.

  • Obama isn't leading, only failing. Obama's idea of 'success' is destroying the constitution. If he 'succeeds' then America fails.

  • How is the constitution being destroyed? Your lord and savior, Bush killed Habeas corpus, made illegal search and seizure LEGAL by implementing the Patriot act on US citizens and literally SAID "the constitution is just a piece of paper". I think you just troll youtube looking for random fights to start without actually having any idea if what you're talking about is actually true.

  • You watch alot of Olbermann, I see, to get your alleged "facts". You should probably stick to commenting on SpongeBob videos and such. Politics are way over your mental capacity of understanding.

  • One doesnt have to be familiar with any political annalist to know that Bush and Cheney wiped their asses with the constitution whenever they saw fit. They arent ALLEGED anything. Everything I stated was true. Even your batshit crazy lapdog network for the GOP, FOX reported on him doing just that.

  • you and people like you dont give a fuck about "freedoms" you just care about keeping your guns and and in a world where the majority is becoming the minority, you're running around scared and throwing out lies over and over again until you hypnotize yourself into believing it.

  • I know you need big government to take care of you, so I can see why you love Obama. I am self suffient, so I have a different way. Good luck to you.

  • Typical GOP tool, lying over the internet....

  • self sufficient in buying your own internet access to spread lies and hatred, sure. next time you drive your mom's car remember that the road is all thanks to your government.

  • I know you think that government created roads, but actually MAN created them, that's the problem with your generation, you rely on government for EVERYTHING.

  • and that's the problem with you morons; your "anti-politics" political agenda destroys the people's one and only chance at making a better life for themselves, through the institutions we have control over (ie the government). Get off the koolaid, you conspiracy nuts.

  • I make a better life for myself, I don't need Obama to tell me what to do, I've always had healthcare because I've always had a job, think about it, Work= health insurance. Obama supporters can't figure out that equation, so see, I'm trying to help them by writing it out.

  • lol cause when I made specific reference to the institutions of Government, I was really just meaning "OBAMA".

    You're a tool. You're not fit to discuss anything of an intellectual and/or substantial nature.

  • plenty of people have jobs that don't come with benefits, we're trying to help you by writing it out, but sore loser McCain/Palin supporters can't come up from their plate of moose jerky to realize this.

  • re: axeman196822 - you clearly aren't intelligent. work = health insurance??? not for everyone. you know there are some small businesses that can't even afford to provide health insurance for their employees, right? Which is part of the problem. It's because they're too small to compete and can't get competitive prices. Leaving people to buy it on their own and pay outrageous prices or have no coverage get sick and go to ER, which raises our premiums or our employer pays a lower %.
