Give Thanks, Republicansim Has Shit the Bed!

[Aojin]

It is not that Frank disagrees with my philosophy, but that he, such as many pundit on the right AND left, use hate and rhetoric to debase a philosophy. I have read much of Rand and Friedman's individual work and both, more so Friedman than Rand, are very fair and logical about the reasons to their philosophy and do not deserve such an underhanded jab. Let us not use profanity and broad generalizing statements to attempt proof of ones point. In reality, it works only to bolster the unthinking

[vip2oo4]

thank

[recto2345]

this guy sucks balls....

[ConradoThePirate]

Too bad the 2009 elections utterly contradict the main point of this.

Nice try, Mr. Thee Frog.

[fixerupper1]

Sounds like kermit,, looks like egg with glasses,, espouses marxism, and somehow believes that just becuase O Bumus won this last time,,, that there are no more champions for morality, conservatism, decency, honor and loyality and character. I never heard of this deviant before this video. Who's you egg head man?

[fringeailments]

@fixerupper1 you are the filth of this earth.

[trueleroix]

I'm glad that this guy is against religion, but it seems that liberalism is his religion. Both religious people and liberals always seem to think that they have the moral high ground.

[MrEpicFail1]

ok buddy dont even talk about debt look a obama now look at his one trillion dollors of debt that he has created just 6 months in office!! not to metion health care thing if passes will screw the nation for healthcare.

[dirtysouthdubcity]

you sound like kermit!

[kipptumor]

Ha ha! "Shit the bed"! Yeah - The millionaires are pouting now - that's for sure. I wonder how much revenue they will be generating by pouting and bitching now. They aren't handing out those big bucks anymore to their ex-employees are they? The plastic trinket factories in China have ground to a halt too. Millionaires generally do not pay their bills (or taxes) and since when is inheriting a fortune "hard work"? Let them pout and run home crying.

[mirage41]

Death to all Republicans!

[marcusleslie2003]

No other respone but cock, not because you are not correct!. Just an unfunny knob in theway you put it.

[bobbynozal]

Don't lump all religous thought into the same post. Quite frankly your pedantic and gleeful rhetoric is misplaced. I agree with most of your postings but your bitterness makes me shy away from this posting. Don't be thankful for the circumstances that have plagued these last eight years. Be thankful instead that its possible for us to make a peaceful redress of our painful greivances not with the throughs of revolution but with the calm and steady leadership of a progressive

[gman6501]

No worries Frank, I will not forget the failure of the Bush Administration. I love your views on both parties. You have my subscription.

[automaticAEV]

fuck bush he wants your job to be like where they put the jews in germany during ww2

[SofaKingLoaded]

"I'm really gonna miss systematically destroying this place.."

-George Bush

[DeathOfEscobar]

the funny thing is, i can actually picture him saying that.

[Albukhshi]

If he actually said that, then he is either a complete jackass, or he is of the devil.

either way, he's a brainless, fickle, and proflegate fellow....

[oldParasiteSingle]

Yeah, that Rove terrorist line made my mind up for Obama. W himself has been striking bargains with Shiite terrorists since he decided to ethnically cleanse all the Sunnis from that giant oilfield in Iraq. The Texas exit polls on Nov. 5 showed that the big oil man coalition convinced 23% of Texans that PEO is a moslem terrorist. I've been blogging everywhere that Obama should just forget about Jan. 20 and go ahead and tell Bush "Get your Shiite [muslim extremist] out of my White House!"

[TheRodAndBuckShow]

thanks for speaking truth, brother!

[jaweeNok]

Yo Frank, SPEAK that truth! Yay!

[iceddante]

I love how this guy associates homophobia, free market deregulation and religion with the Republican party when the Democrats stand with republicans in opposing Gay marriage, Clinton-era economists deregulated the derivatives market which is partly responsible for the meltdown, and every Democrat clings to their Christianity as a badge of electability.

[zeppafloyd]

The republican politicians who were elected into washington in 2000 and 2004 were put there by the money of large energy, chemical and agribusiness corporations who care about only one thing, MONEY. They don't give a rats ass about anyone or anything else including America, the world or it's people. This was documented by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in his book: "Crimes Against Nature". Read the book and learn. Is anger at Republicanism justified? Rage is justified.

[Robotocracy]

GOP: The party of hypocrisy.

[bluenote71]

Bush sucked, but Clinton sucked, too. He repealed the Glass/Steagel Act, which is what prevented commercial acts and investment acts from doing business with each other. Both parties are essentially the same, IMO.

[Childrenscneterh]

Bush more than sucked, he didnt care to try hard enough not to suck. He and his crew were straight up out for self.

[blacknosugarnocream]

No, the Glass Steagall Act prevented them from doing the SAME kind of business and from merging with each other.

It was essentially repealed during the tail end of the Clinton administration by the passage of the Gramm, Leach, Bliley Act of 1999. That passage came at the hands of a Republican-controlled house & senate.

[jjrglobal]

Hey Frank, You ever heard of the Community Reinvestment Act? Or Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae? This crisis is completely caused by Socialism not Capitalism. Although well intended as these programs were, they caused a distortion in the market as any and all government intervention does. This distortion caused malinvestment. Do you think that foreign investors would have allowed these ridiculous lending standards if the gov hadn't guaranteed mortgages written by Freddie and Fannie,accounts for 80%?NO

[blacknosugarnocream]

Yes, he has heard of them and has made previous videos referring to them. But you're absolutely wrong about that they created the economic crisis we're in currently.

Even Alan Greenspan has admitted that deregulation of the mythical free market was the primary source of the problem.

.::Time Magazine::.

... Not familiar with credit default swaps? Well, we didn't know much about collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) either — until they began to undermine the economy.

Read up on it.

[jjrglobal]

Wow son, I am up on it. I don't care what Greenspan said he's a liar.If Freddie and Fannie did not exist would we be in this mess? If congress had not made a law requiring that banks write a certain amount of sub prime loans every month would we be in this mess?Don't blame the free market because the idiot niggers in congress fucked up. It makes me sick to watch Maxine Waters say to Paulson "You haven't fixed my fuck up yet, huh"

[wervasdeferens]

The economic crisis started in the 1980's, with the shift of wealth to the Top, a loss of our manufacturing base and financing military build-up with debt.

This current crisis was exacerbated by the manipulation of deregulated energy markets and you, of all people, should know about OIL.

You do understand that record oil profits came out of the pockets of homeowners?

You do know that people without a job can't pay their mortgages?

If you don't, then you're the nigger!

[seamoremonster]

More bluntly...it started with Reaganomics. You know the great communicator? Who convinced the majority of the wisdom of trickle down economics...and the poor looked up to heaven and said "Hey. Where all that piss coming from?"

[blacknosugarnocream]

You have demonstrated that you are NOT up on it.

You don't have to believe Greenspan, or any other reputable economist who is saying the same thing that he is. But, if you're an emotionally mature and reasonably intelligent adult, you must ask yourself if you personally have as much credibility and intellectual capacity as any of those people.

Clearly you do not.

[quietisloud]

You literally do not know what you are talking about. While Republicans (and all who preach deregulation) deserve the majority of the blame. This is not a political issue. It was caused by greedy wall street execs who threw common sense out of the window in favor of making millions. Have you heard of Mortgage backed securities or CDO's? Why don't you read a book for once instead of watching Fox News.

[Amiduffer]

Thank you Frank. That was another gut buster. Please rag on Friedman and Rand more.

[Ender1zero1]

Frank I really enjoy your vids. Bush and Co. broke our economy by unregulated greed and self interest, they will not be missed and I sincerely hope their polices and actions will not be forgotten

[dankbot420]

this guy needs to be on TV

[u2hubbard]

You sound like a true activist. Keep fighting the good fight Frank.

[XOmniverse]

Nothing about the Bush/Cheney administration was free market at all.

[hoosiermama5357libin]

As always Frank you are right! I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and I join you in praying the American people never forget what 8 years of the neocons did to this country.

[MelvinFrohike]

I detest this holiday, however, Frank made it a bit more bearable.

[rollsthepaul]

What is that brown substance falling toward the fan? Hey buddy can you spare 10 billion?

The enemy is within and it is a juggernaut. Gee Frank, you're getting the hang of America. Thank the Lord and pass the ammunition.

[sexymomma20]

Happy Thanksgiving Frank!

[Chiffon56]

Frank... you have such a wonderful way with words. And you're so right. We always have money for wars and fatcats, but never seem to have enough for the poor or middle-class. When WE fuck up, we're "careless and/or stupid". When THEY fuck-up, it's just because "shit happens". THEY get "bailouts". We get "better luck, next time". Anyway... thanks, as usual, for telling it like it is. And I hope you're having a wonderful Thanksgiving. This year, I'm grateful for the Obama win... AND for YOU!!

[chrishird21]

Hear hear! Hope you're having a good Thanksgiving Frank :)

[miketwo345]

Happy Thanksgiving Frank.

You make some great points. Sadly, I feel the economy is tying Obama's hands pretty tight. I would expect the deficit to rise even more under him, only this time for good reasons. (When you *actually* are in a emergency, the national credit card should be an option.)

Nevertheless, Republicans will start hypocritically bashing him for the rising deficit (ignoring the past 8 years), and in 2012 we'll be back where we started because people are stupid enough to buy it.

[authorjeff77]

happy thanks giving to you too Frank!

[WeisseEdelweiss]

Isn't funny how when both extreme ends such as Democrats and Republicans create a major fuck up, the other party is right there to balance it all out?

Well, all must come full circle, my friends. And that circle is within a controlled group, an elite, so that everything goes around and around and around.

[Philstepson]

Great analysis and commentary.

- Happy Thanksgiving!

[grrcrl]

Hail Frank!

[Dedhedted71]

All you lost sheep, Frank lovers out there better wake the hell up! Yall think because Bush was sooo bad that the liberal Democrat, progressives will be good. Give me a break! They are just as un-American, greedy, corrupt, & incompetent as anyone screwing our country up right now is. Both parties are the same party. Two heads of the same snake & this guy Frank is defending one over the other. There is a handfull of honest people in Congress on both sides. Or independent. Vote for those people!

[WeisseEdelweiss]

You're absolutely correct Dedhedted. Until these people understand that both parties are controlled by one group, we'll have ..as I said before the same shit tossed around.

[Dedhedted71]

Frank! I think you shaved your brain off along with your hair. Neo-consevatism is history, no question. But liberalism is next! What will be left is true traditional conservatism. Thats how this country became great & thats how we will go forward. The future of America can be found within the ranks of the Ron Paul Revolution. Everyone else is just talk.

[blacknosugarnocream]

Wrong. Conservative governance (mismanagement) for the last eight years is what put us in this fix. It is dead.

It is only the deadenders who still believe in conservatism and the lie of a 'center-right' nation.

[Dedhedted71]

We will see.

[blair227]

4 stars and a happy Thangiving to you and yours Frank.Keep telling truth to lie.

[zzRider]

You, sir, are a hammer, and your targets are nailed.

[clawthius]

Fuckin Beautiful.You kick ass Frank and you WILL have a mainstream media gig within 365 days.

[Dedhedted71]

You are right! He probly will get a gig with the mainstream media. He would fit right in.

[M3minusGrowth]

I now live in the Fascist States of Corporations thanks to the Fascist Republicans.

[Hereticbooks]

Thanks again, Frank. You do tend to put things in perspective. I respect that!

[AshillaBeige]

Yes... Ayn Rand is a sociopath because she believed that people should have to work for their money.

Fuck republicans. Fuck democrats. Fuck welfare. Fuck religion.

I don't know when it happened (probably when Obama won) but Frank and a lot of self proclaimed "liberals" turned into giant religious-like pricks.

Just because you have faith in men and not talking snakes doesn't mean you're better off.

[wervasdeferens]

No, Rand was a sociopath because her philosophy bolstered a dog eat dog system, which justifies a CEO making $28 million/yr, while bitching that the union worker making $28/hr is bankrupting the corporation.

A system where a Doctor drives a Rolls Royce and plays two rounds a golf per week, while society is burdened with the costs of health care.

Don't get your rosary beads in a wad, just because Frank put down religion.

[Springtime916]

I'm going to have to agree with you. It seems to be that Marxism and by extension leftism has hints of nonsense from the bible.

I can't even understand how marxism is supposed to be proven by Natural selection... So long as the environment is constantly changing there can be no ultimate end to human evolution, and with no god there is no objective standard of human virtue beyond what is given to us; the ability to earn for ourselfs.

[JamJells]

You forgot to add ENRON to that list of waste. Great facts and real down to earth truths!

[Steadno]

Palin around with giant fish guts!

[WeisseEdelweiss]

"Talking Snakes" as in Reptilians?

Yeah, and how much time did you spend in your arm chair tossing over this idea?

I pity humanity's ego. These people won't even listen to their own despite eyewitnesses. Yet it's okay to be an eyewitness to what happens in the mind control flickering box.

Remember the Elite loves you..

[WeisseEdelweiss]

Those of us who know of the "talking snakes" and also those who do not know of the "talking snakes" also know that the democrats and republicans work for the same people.

It just really pulls at my heart when people don't realize the same shit is being tossed back and forth.

[WeisseEdelweiss]

I understand how easy it is to be taken to one side or the other, but remember both sides lead to an extreme. Humanity needs to be in the middle, and until we learn how to moderate ourselves, we'll never have the peace that we want and only the hedonistic life styles most selfishly strive for.

[wervasdeferens]

WeisseEdelweiss, I agree with you about balance, but the fact remains that the general population has historically fared better under Democratic administrations.

Whether it's Socialism or unbridled Capitalism, matters not to the "the Elite".

They make money out of thin air called interest or usury, I think that's what you're getting at.

Frank didn't say the Democrats were Angels.

But if one party was to move society towards the balance of a Socialist Democracy, it would be the Dems.

[47f0]

WeisseEdelweiss - humanity needs to be in the middle? The middle of what, exactly? Rationality and insanity? Hate and tolerance? Why give any credence or weight to ideologies that are proven losers? It's one thing to be fair - it's completely another to be so "fair" that you give equal (and undeserved) consideration to bad policies, bad reason and bad results.

[WeisseEdelweiss]

Humanity needs to understand that, what they experiance themselves as in this reality, is not real. It's an illusion.

If you don't understand that, then you will not understand what I mean by moderation because everything else, morale, religion, politics, and government seem real to you and you just..won't..get it.

[Boomer1949]

"Republicans have shit the bed and left the building!" Haaaaaa!! Isn't that the truth!!

[seamoremonster]

After eight years of absolute disaster the Conservatives are still in a high state of denial...it's all the liberals fault. Try and figure that one out! Then of course there are those who still claim that there is no difference between Gore and Bush ergo no difference between Obama and Clinton. It's easy for them to argue this because they take brains out of the equation.

[seamoremonster]

Actually that was meant to read between Obama and McCain. Go figure.

[mjamesb2008]

I agree Frank..."suffering" is what I called the last 8 years of Bush...no one knows what kind of world we will have after trying to clean up this disaster, no one, no terrorist, could have done as much damage as Bush and his croonies...unfortunatly, Obama is stuck with this damn mess...and it looks like more debt, more spending. I think we will all end up screwed, but I'm betting they have not let us know how bad things really are, and are just hoping this will work..but it's too much..too late

[Alfrunk]

Hahahah. He's just a doorman for the old clinton retreads. No change here.

[LinkHot20]

woot third post

[qxdc]

Freemarket capitalism failed? LOL read a book.

[AiresQX4]

Frank still suffering from the left/right dillusion? Just wondering what your gonna say when Obama proves himself to be a fellow member of the Elitist scum with no care for the average man?

[miketwo345]

I need to bookmark this comment so I can come back and shove it in your face when he pushed through a middle-class tax break...
