The video says it all. Thank to GOD a camera was rolling or they would have put him in a hospital. Is anyone makes a statement and then can't answer a question but stand there like a dummy waiting for others to get rid of him well, that says a lot about durbins character and honesty. He has neither.
@towerclimber37 And I'm worried about you. You're obsessed with "winning." There is no winner here. You're spouting nonsense and I'm stubborn enough and feel bad enough for you to keep responding. Your problem is that you have absolutely no idea what's going on but you're positive you're incredibly informed. There was actually a study done recently that showed that of all voters, tea partiers are the most likely to define themselves as informed, but also know the least about the issues.
@towerclimber37 Wow. You're ability to be wrong knows no bounds. You're blaming Obama for the recession he inherited from the Bush presidency? How can you even say that with a straight face? Under Obama, the economy has turned around. "Creating jobs" is the latest political hot button that people like to talk about. In truth, the president has very little control over jobs. If you think they're controlled by taxes, Obama's plan has lower taxes than McCain's proposed plan did.
@towerclimber37 Continue thinking you're always right about everything. I'm sure it feels very good. That's why Fox News and other media conglomerates like the Washington Times, American Spectator, etc. have a following. By all means, continue to vote un/misinformed. I prefer to actually know what I'm talking about. I will enjoy insulting you, because it's good to see that even the most idiotic lunatics have the confidence to stand up for themselves. It shows true character. Kudos.
@towerclimber37 While I'd love to discuss how every single thing you've written is wrong, I'm tired of it. Arguing you is like arguing with a below-average tree stump. By all means continue to let the world know that you're a lunatic. I'm just going to troll you.
@towerclimber37 And think for a moment about the ideology of the tea party. Their goal is little to no government. They are anarchists. They want a country run by corporate interest. Is that your goal? If so, well it explains a lot, I suppose. I certainly don't think that Walmart would make a good labor secretary.
@towerclimber37 And you didn't understand what I was saying. Tea party legislators were refusing to function in their role in government on a time-sensitive issue trying to pressure the rest of congress to relent on unrelated issues. That's dirtier than the normal dirty tactics applied by both sides of the aisle. If you prefer to think that they were "playing chicken" if that makes more sense to you, that's fine.
@towerclimber37 I don't know exactly what you mean by, "liberals have gotten their way." Obama has done nothing but try to clean up the messes left by the Bush administration. And to answer your question, I paid more taxes than you did, and then still owed more when refunds were sent out. I gladly pay taxes when they go to programs I support. That's how representative government works.
@towerclimber37 WOW YOUR PATHETIC, HOW ABOUT YOU TAKE YOUR DADDY'S DICK OUT YOUR ASS, SHOVE IT IN YOUR FILTHY COCKSUCKING MOUTH AND SHUT YOUR CUNT FACE UP, YOU MOTHERFUCKING PIECE OF DIARRHEA PORK SHIT !!

Loophole define: loopholes can be good or bad, depends how u use it. to not pay taxes is unfair. but to give to charity and get a type of tax write-off for helping organizations that help people like hospitals,it is good. If you destroy these type of loopholes, you end up hurting needy people. As I said, loopholes can be use for bad and good.Be intelligent and explain which loopholes u r all talking about...P.S.. businesses all type help charitable organization, the govt does not!!!
Mr Durbin is such idiot. Calls Bush a Nazi, is more responsible than most for the situation we are in and he doesn't have the guts to answer a simple question. Typical Lib, never can answer a real question!
I'm sure that reporter had a valid point to make, and I'm all for trying to put corrupt politicians in their place, but that was embarrassing. I wouldn't be able to take that guy seriously either, kind of pathetic.
d@VickeryD If you`re so worried about embarrassing a treasonous politician, exactly how would YOU put them in their place? By refusing to bow and curtsy?
Great response to a ass kissing moron. It easy to understand way this country is turning into a shithole. Unfortunately when someone shows some balls like this reporter he gets hammered, threatened with arrest, then finally led out of the room by law enforcement. I am surprised he was not arrested to teach him a lesson. Some of them (politicians) definitely need to be put in their place, but they have become our new untouchables.
CHICAGO IS A COMMUNIST CITY, DOESN'T EVERYBODY KNOW THAT BY NOW? PEOPLE DON'T HAVE RIGHTS HERE, UNLESS THEY'RE COMRADES OF THE COMMIECAGO CRIMINAL POLITICAL CABAL.
@towerclimber37 I mean I know I'm not going to be able to change your opinion, and that's fine. I just wish you would learn to think without the aid of Glen Beck or whoever else does your thinking for you. That's all.
@towerclimber37 You want to talk about accounting for actions? How about the tea party politicians who held the country hostage over the debt ceiling issue? Days of productivity were lost because they wanted to get their way on completely unrelated issues while the country was on the verge of default. Your supposed freedom-fighters are know-nothings who don't even know how the world economy works. I'm not wearing any chains. I pay taxes so programs I support get funding. You proselytize.
@paulbbryan if you want a lesson in proselytization, research "The Washington Syndrome" that a bureaucracy if threatened with a budget cut will cut the programs with the most political exposure FIRST; in order to maximize the political risk.
If anyone was holding the country hostage it was Obama, the debt ceiling could easily be raised by executive order. But Obama wanted CONgress to vote in a fourth branch of govt called the super-congress.
@ParapaDrifter So your accusation of corruption is making the opponent look bad? That's done by both sides. How on Earth can you come to the conclusion that the tea party's shenanigans are Obama's fault? And you're then blaming Obama for the horrific amount of deficit spending done during the Bush years? You're hopeless, dude. And if Obama had raised the ceiling with an executive order, you would just have called him a dictator for not listening to Congress. You're hopeless, dude.
@paulbbryan way to put words in my mouth how else is the gov't going to be trimmed? Are we destined to shoulder more and more debt?
Obama was a senator during Bush's debacle. Obama's bailout of banks caused the debt ceiling to be reached. It's Obama's fault because he did nothing well within his power to stem the tide of banker raping the economy. Did he freeze forclosures? Naw. Do FDR style recovery plans. NOPE.
The approach of the debt limit is partly Obama's fault, as a senator, now as prez.
@ParapaDrifter Dude. Bush bailed out the banks. And to actually blame Obama for everything that went on because he was a senator for a short time during his term is absurd. I didn't put words into your mouth at all. The tea party held the country hostage trying to earn political points. On your question about how the government can be trimmed, I would argue that the ridiculous Bush tax cuts to the wealthy is what set all this in motion. Removing them would help with the debt immensely.
@paulbbryan Yep Bush was a wall-street monster, actually wall-street is the monster. Obama continued to appease wall-street! Both idiots deserve to be shit on.
Obama did nothing to reverse the exploitation of the American economy by wall-street. Why not a tax on derivatives transactions? What the fuck are you defending him for? What has he done to prevent the raping of our economy by bankers? Low interest loans to small businesses?
Obama cant rest on the blame game alone. it's an idiotic defense
@paulbbryan Did Obama investigate banker fraud? Did he investigate ratings agencies collusion with the bankers? It's rediculous that America's ability to pay gets downgraded, yet the Zombie banks who received more that 16 ta ta trillion dollars(according to GAO) of our money still remain in business.
@paulbbryan And this whole argument of the debt ceiling is moot because the debt ceiling itself is just an arbitrary number set by politicians who don't like deficit spending. It's been moved several times already. If you don't want debt, go on the gold standard. But we knew even in the 40s that the gold standard didn't work because we couldn't fund out WWII needs. Please learn your history.
@towerclimber37 It was not a public event. It was a press conference. Only members of the press can ask questions. Even if you don't want to admit that The Washington Times is just a bunch of slanderous tripe, people giving a press conference can answer whatever questions they want. This isn't an interview, it's a press conference. Third, the man's "question" was just libelous garbage that showed a completely uninformed stance on the issue.
@paulbbryan I wonder why the Washington Times didn't have a real staff reporter at this event, if it was so important. That person would've had credentials, and could've asked a question, although I doubt any real reporter would ask a question the way commentator Kelly did.
This meeting was announced as open to media AND PUBLIC. ANYBODY is supposed to be allowed to ask a question. "DICK" Durbin was answering questions from everyone else who asked them. All part of the State run media elite. Journalism is dead, and shitheads like Durbin killed it. How dare that POS call anyone else a "terrorist."
@bruiser700 He does not "write" for the Washington Times. He had a blog on their website. He is not an employed reporter. Call the Washington Times newsroom and see if they can find his desk and extension there. He's not a working journalist, he's not paid by the WT. Working journalists are employed and get paid, not "state-approved propagandists."
Dick Durbin is a scumbag liberal pinko who can't answer a simple question. The reporter is so cool, he is from a great paper, the Washington Times, a great Conservative paper. He was thrown out cause he is not your typical liberal media drone. I like this reporter cause has the balls to ask Dickhead Durbin a simple question and a legitimate one. We need more reporters like him.
i dont know which was repub or demo... it did make me laugh as i was in a state of overdose... now sober i think its all shit... who the fuck says we have free speech? who the fuck are these asshole in this put up scam..and they make money at this?
Typical cockroach seeking the dark. This scum bag and his bootlicking lackeys will find out soon all about voter anger when they will all be out of a job. Newspapers are going down...
"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State." Joseph Goebbels
I'm amazed by the dumb comments here.. The founding fathers were right in creating a "representative" government. I'm sure glad the cross section of people commenting here is not getting majority rule on how our country is run. It would be even worse than things already are.
I'm just curious....why would Durbin be any more responsible for the downgrade than any of the other clowns on either side of the aisle?
The other thing I find interesteing is that none of Kelly's other uploaded videos has this kind of view count....the next closest was when he was threatened by another reporter. Hey....maybe Kelly will realize now..I piss off reporters, I get attention. Look for more of this moron doing moron things in the future. JUST what we need.
Republicunts got in the debt deal: 690 billion tax cuts for the wealthiest, 321 billion more on extra tax cuts for the wealthiest in deductions,129 billion for foreign profits, 97.5 billion welfare for businesses, 44 billion welfare for oil and gas, 21.4 billion loopholes for hedge fund &managers, 10 billion for loans for yachts & vacation homes FUCK YOU REPUBLIKKKUNTS
@justonefirefly1 Boo hoo. Get used to it, honey. 2012 wii be the real election of CHANGE. Back to the adults being in charge. Your Messiah will be a 1 term loser.
@demsarepostal Please enlighten us on these adults you speak of. Tell us the candidates you plan on voting for and winning the election in 2012. I bet you ain't got the balls! But if you do we can all have a big laugh in November of next year. And if you haven't closed your account after your dumb ass prediction fails I will personally look you up to remind you of what a fucking moron you are. Ante up bitch!
@angelzngods I will have to see who all the candidates will be on my primary next year in order to make a rational, educated and informed choice in whom to vote for. So far some I like a lot, some not so much and some aren't running (yet). Herman Cain has some great ideas, Newt, too. But anyone is bettter than someone in there with NO IDEAS, NO CLUE & LACKS LEADERSHIP, MORALS, BRAINS, EXPERIENCE & CONVICTION.
@justonefirefly1 Maybe thqt's because they earned the money in the first place rather than the 50% of the population who leach of the rest. Typical Libera. Not enough brains to earn it themselves so they have to take it from those who do. Read Marx you fool. Unless he's your idiot cousin.l
@mrmob1952 Yea they sure earned that money. They must be really special and smart like you. Since you are so brilliant, work so hard and are rich tell us that lack the brains how you did it. I promise not to leach off you if share your secrets of success with me. I want to become rich, smart and special just like you and your friends. Then I can work on being intolerant, rude, greedy, hateful, selfish, disresctful(did I leave anything out)asshole like you and your fellow republicunts. Thanks
Democrats need to get their sh*t together. Actually we need a party that is between the two extreme parties that we have today. Im not a lib, progressive or a conservative (Neocon),tea, libertarian. I'm in the middle, both parties have ideals that I like- but neither has everything that represents me. I'm a believer, but I don't think that abortion should be made illegal, I'd like a public option, but I don't believe in gay marriage. No party represents me.
@Vernonu9 I'm sorry November 2012 will be business as usual for the elections. You will be offered the typical choice of a Turd Sandwich or a Giant Douche. Its been the same for about the last 30 or 40 years. Don't expect anything to change, as you will be sadly disappointed if you do. Have a nice day.
@angelzngods agreed. My other problem is, we tout democracy as being so great and communism/dicatorships as being so evil, but we have our own major problems too- beginning with the fact that too many of our politicians are bought by corporations/special interest groups. We need to clean our own house.
props to the reporter! This whole press conference is staged. Freedom of speech? Ever heard of that before? Why not answer a simple question to prove that you're a true man?! Really weak and seriously EVERYONE should know by now that there's not much to come from where Durbin is coming from..
@mjs1231 Nice thought but we're talking Illinois, home of Barry from Kenya, Rahm Dead Fish, Jesse Jackson (s), Mayors Daley, Al Capone, etc. Ill, where more votes are cast than people are registered. Convicts, dead people, kids and illegals outnumber legitimate voters. Most of Ill, CA, and NOLA should just form their own People's Republic and leave the rest of us alone.
its funny how the politicians are saying we are recovering mean while our country is failing in every category except rich individuals getting richer.
@BugsBunnyOfficial hahah i am white bitch, became a DoD contractor and found out my money goes farther in other countries, take you racist ass back to school and learn to open you mind.
IF YOU ARE WATCHING THESE TRENDS YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU"VE BEEN BRAINWASHED BY THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT. YOUR MIND HAS BECOME ANOTHER SUBJECT FOR ILLUMINATI TRANSFORMATION. BUT IT'S NOT TO LATE FOR YOU TO FREE YOUR MIND!
Our government is so fucking retarded. If they don't get their shit together our country is going to completely go down the shitter. Enough of this elitist bullshit.
The Washington Times and every media company he contributes to are not journalist entities, but propagandists and entertainers, ergo his questions are not protected by the first amendment. He has no more right to be there than I do. Saying you're a journalist doesn't make it true.
Everyone arguing in defense of this guy needs to take a real look at themselves. Fox News has convinced people to vote for politicians who want to reduce taxes on the wealthiest 5% while the middle class sacrifices.
This idiot dummycrat commie durbin is precisely when this country is in a fiscal mess. reward lazyiness and tax the achievers and hard workers, the idiology of jew karl marx and implemented by the jew commies in this country and their lackeys like this idiot, when revolution comes you know who to string up
This video makes it embarrassing to be a republican. Kelly had no right to ask a question at the conference without a press pass therefore not violating the first amendment. It is shameful how Durbin reacted but this situation should not have occurred. Kelly was the provoker in this situation. Love live the true right wing!
He is absolutely obnoxious, I don't care what your goal is but the solution is never to be more of a pain in the ass than the people you're trying to expose.
Damn that reporter is annoying. Even though his intensions are good, I fucking hate people like that. Its going to be awesome when all these political figures get tossed!
stupid rich fuckers with their private jets and favorite vineyards. i hope they get cancer and get their dicks ripped vertically in half so it looks like a god damn external vagina. fuck these talking heads. they don't do shit for anyone. cutting social security?! are you fucking kidding me? there are people who fought in the korean war getting those checks. do NOT fuck with our grandparents, you rich fuckin bitches i WILL RIP YOU FUCKERS APART WITH MY BARE HANDS ALONG WITH PLIERS AND MATCHES!
Durbin has a dream( the Dream Act) to grant citizenship to illegal immigrants.
He believes debt is good, a big honey pot to share with his third world illegal friends, 40+ million of them. Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, stipends, interpreters, subsidized housing, k-12, free college educations..the sky is the limit. Durbin is a legend in his own mind. A real debt hero to everyone, but natural born American citizens.
All of America's leaders - be they in business, labor, government and/or institutions - are behaving like spoiled European aristocrats. Sadly, this is the same "management quality problem" that has been plaguing American Industry since the the 1970s if not longer!
@NapiurPictures The politician is selling natural born citizens down the river and most know that. Durbin is a a typical double dealing politician, acts so nice and self effacing while they`re stabbing you in the back. Ever heard the phrase 'killing you with kindness". Durbin, like most U.S. politicians, is a super duper number 1 PRO at that.
the tea party, the worst and most unintelligent of all American. look at the interviews with the tea partyer's they are so ignorant.

@paulbbryan I wonder why the Washington Times didn't have a real staff reporter at this event, if it was so important. That person would've had credentials, and could've asked a question, although I doubt any real reporter would ask a question the way commentator Kelly did.

This meeting was announced as open to media AND PUBLIC. ANYBODY is supposed to be allowed to ask a question. "DICK" Durbin was answering questions from everyone else who asked them. All part of the State run media elite. Journalism is dead, and shitheads like Durbin killed it. How dare that POS call anyone else a "terrorist."

Show the full conference video, Kelly, from start to end (or at least your end.) What do you have to hide?
briguy1971 6 months ago
@bruiser700 He does not "write" for the Washington Times. He had a blog on their website. He is not an employed reporter. Call the Washington Times newsroom and see if they can find his desk and extension there. He's not a working journalist, he's not paid by the WT. Working journalists are employed and get paid, not "state-approved propagandists."

@briguy1971 Incorrect. Mr. Kelly is a contracted columnist with the Washington Times Communities and is paid per column.

Dick Durbin is a scumbag liberal pinko who can't answer a simple question. The reporter is so cool, he is from a great paper, the Washington Times, a great Conservative paper. He was thrown out cause he is not your typical liberal media drone. I like this reporter cause has the balls to ask Dickhead Durbin a simple question and a legitimate one. We need more reporters like him.

Clown "Turban" Durbin.
"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State."

I'm just curious....why would Durbin be any more responsible for the downgrade than any of the other clowns on either side of the aisle?
The other thing I find interesteing is that none of Kelly's other uploaded videos has this kind of view count....the next closest was when he was threatened by another reporter. Hey....maybe Kelly will realize now..I piss off reporters, I get attention. Look for more of this moron doing moron things in the future. JUST what we need.

Democrats need to get their sh*t together. Actually we need a party that is between the two extreme parties that we have today. Im not a lib, progressive or a conservative (Neocon),tea, libertarian. I'm in the middle, both parties have ideals that I like- but neither has everything that represents me. I'm a believer, but I don't think that abortion should be made illegal, I'd like a public option, but I don't believe in gay marriage. No party represents me.

@angelzngods agreed. My other problem is, we tout democracy as being so great and communism/dicatorships as being so evil, but we have our own major problems too- beginning with the fact that too many of our politicians are bought by corporations/special interest groups. We need to clean our own house.

The Washington Times and every media company he contributes to are not journalist entities, but propagandists and entertainers, ergo his questions are not protected by the first amendment. He has no more right to be there than I do. Saying you're a journalist doesn't make it true.
Everyone arguing in defense of this guy needs to take a real look at themselves. Fox News has convinced people to vote for politicians who want to reduce taxes on the wealthiest 5% while the middle class sacrifices.

Durbin has a dream( the Dream Act) to grant citizenship to illegal immigrants.
He believes debt is good, a big honey pot to share with his third world illegal friends, 40+ million of them. Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, stipends, interpreters, subsidized housing, k-12, free college educations..the sky is the limit. Durbin is a legend in his own mind. A real debt hero to everyone, but natural born American citizens.
