  • It's amazing how many idiots are willing to bet the planet that the oil companies are right and all the science is wrong about climate change.

  • Can someone tell these dimwits that this planet is in a CONSTANT state of flux? For f's sake, we've only been taking measurements of glacier activities for the past 50 years? And that in recorded history (during the American Revolution) our continent was undergoing a mini ice-age? No, no one can - because these f'ing jerks are wise to the fact that they can make money off of simply scaring people.

  • @raratunga

    RFK Jr was mislead, like many. The global warm scam was very well planned.

    Club of Rome, UN Agenda

    Part 1: "The common enemy of humanity is man. In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill. In their totality and in their interactions these phenomena do constitute a common threat which demands the solidarity of all peoples.

  • @raratunga

    Part 2: All these dangers are caused by human intervention, and it is only through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome. The real enemy then, is humanity itself."

    - Alexander King and Bertrand Schneider, The First Global Revolution (NY: Pantheon Books, 1991) 119

  • Someone needs to clue in Robert F. Kennedy Jr. about "climate-gate 2.0." Now we know "goldman sachs-of-shit" were directly involved int the carbon tax/credit/trading scheme.

  • @hihellohowareyou1000 IS MANHATTAN UNDER 12 FEET OF WATER? NO MOTHERFUCKER, IT IS NOT

  • Genius.

    

  • No truer comment than at :38. Well ahead of it's time.

  • HILARIOUS!!!

  • I love how he looks at the camera with a smartass grin on his face.

  • YOU TUBE IZ BETTER THAN TV,U COULD THINK OF SOMTHIN FUNNY FROM BAK IN DA DAY  AND JUS PRESS IT UP ON YOU TUBE

  • The glance he makes towards the camera after saying "Bobby" (1:18), like he just zinged Kennedy, is the only proof you need to know he's a great comedian. One of the best of his generation.

  • Best interview of an oil company rep I've ever seen. And "all these chicken-little environmentalists" aren't the only ones who believe in global warming anymore, considering how the oil companies are scrambling to claim drilling rights in the arctic ocean now that parts of it that had been frozen for thousands of years are melting. Conservatives are waging a multi-front war on reality, and denial of global warming is just one more depressing symptom of the disease.

  • Has Jeremy Glick ever interviewed Nathan Thurm???

  • Wow, you managed to turn something perectly good into a left-wing piece of bullshit propaganda. Thanks assholes. And I hope Robert Kennedy fucking dies.

  • @petecavscout Well, at least we get a taste of how hysterical and ridiculous so many of these chicken little environmentalists are, since by now the predictions made by Kennedy in the video are a joke

  • Comment removed

  • Marty Short is a fucking genius! One of the funniest men ever to walk the Earth!!!

  • mad funny

  • Here is where this character came into play

    "Martin Short as Nathan Thurm 1985 Special"

    youtube.co m/watch?v=98MNisZJyFI&feature=­related

    Both are GREAT and help show why Martin Short deserves a spot back up on the big screen. Oh, wait, hollywood likes douchebags instead. Nevermind.

  • kennedys a tool but short is a GENIUS

  • @BigDaddyDJD You are half correct in that statement. Guess which half.

  • Brilliant

  • The science remains sound and there's more data every year supporting the theory of global warming.

    The deniers will eventually have a seat next to the members of the Flat Earth Society.

  • The oil company shills who are on this sight quoting the bullshit of 60,000 scientists who have signed a petition illustrate how easily they are suckered in by Corporate Propaganda. The truth is any idiot could sign that petition and did. There was no requirement to show scientific credentials in order to sign.  If they are too lazy to research legitmate sources...send the braindead fucks to the South Pacific and put them on a coral atoll....they'll be up to their ass in water in no time.

  • Martin Short was the reason I watched SNL back in the days.

  • lmao this is hilariousssss.

  • Except Global Warming is a huge scam which doesn't even take into account the last fifteen years or so of temperature averages. So how come Robert Kennedy has jumped on board with the scam? This troubles me.

  • @livnfree930

    Actually, you should be more "troubled" with the fact that you have believe the Corporate Tripe that Rush the Hut and all the other Corporate Ass-Sucking Liars have been promoting. 99% of all Climatologists believe in Global Warming.

    The Big Oil Companies have dumped Millions of Dollars in trying to disprove it so they can go along their merry way polluting the Planet.

  • bobby LOLOLOLOLLOL

  • Sweet Jesus this man is fucking funny. Check out the syncronized swimming video.

  • Leave it to RFK jr to out scumbag a fictional scumbag.  America deserves the tyranny that is on it's doorstep.

  • @1ndabag

    A lot of people were deceived about global warming. Many only woke up when the emails were leaked exposing the global warming scam.

    I'd give RFK Jr the benefit of the doubt. He has steadfastly worked to improve the environment and has taken on several large corporations (polluters) in court.

  • @hplaserjet2001 I've admired RFK Jr. - but it bothers me that he didn't do his homework on Global Warming before jumping on that bandwagon. He does his homework on other things. Does he stand to gain financially if they pull off the Cap and Trade and all the other sales hype that goes along with it?

  • @livnfree930

    IMO RFK Jr was duped like millions worldwide.

    Good question re cap and trade.

    Have you found evidence that RFK Jr will gain financially? If you have, I'd be interested in that information.

  • @hplaserjet2001 Yeah I was wondering that myself!!  Maybe he knows better now.

  • CLASSIC FREAKIN CLASSIC !

  • THEEE BEST STUFF

  • "I know that...you don't think I know that?" lol

  • Great stuff. Comedy is the best way to get people's attention.

  • Martin Short knows that the conservative spin machine is a PR juggernaut that hires it's own scientists just like Big Tobacco did in the 90's & just like BP is doing now to prevent them from testifying. It took an Al Gore to turn his back on his rich peers, his own state, Big Tobacco & Big Oil the 2 biggest industries in the south. I'm surprised they let him live. Short illustrates the republican creed of money & profits over people unlike Bobby K ever could.
  • Love!

    Martin Short is soooooo

  • LOL Martin Short is a comic genius

  • What's up with Kennedy's Katherine Hepburn voice? He always sounds like he's about to break into tears. Does he have Parkinson's?

  • too too funny!

  • OK, I love this cuz it shows what a great sense of humor that a least one Kennedy family has. Also my favorite Martin Short character of all time. I work for attorneys, though none this scummy....but I've sure talked to some scummy opposing counsel. GREAT. Hope Robert F. K, Jr is doing OK.

  • "Most MEN don't like musicals...Bobby!" LMAO...

  • This is funny, but complete bullshit. And what is wrong with that guys voice?

  • Martin Short is funny. RFK jr. is a liberal douchebag.

  • what do the rest say

  • Of course I knew that....

    Hahahahaaaaaa oh god!  This is the funniest thing I've seen in years. Thanks soooo much

  • I love the internet. Just about every charge made in this video has since been discredited or disproven.

    The tables have turned. Thurm is now most likely being retained by the Big Warmers.

  • I love how the global warming Pollyanna's keep believing their nonsense, now that all the 'science' has been shown to be false. No warming for 15 years! The Medieval Warm Period was warmer than now! The data has all been faked or lost! Yet they still believe in it, like any braindead child does their religion.

  • @brainiacgames

    Actually the science was shown to be completely correct. What else has been shown is the greed of the Oil Corps like BP and what they'll do in terms of lies and obfuscation. BP just tried to buy scientists for their last environmental fiasco.

    So you'd rather throw your lot in with lying idiots like Inhofe and the Oil Corporations rather than the vast majority of Climatologists? The guys that have likely destroyed gulf of mexico.

    Must be weird to be a tool for the Big Corps.

  • @leesagrrl Wow, you're deluded. The science was shown to be flawed, based on altered and fabricated data. Nobody 'bought' anybody, Wikileaks leaked the data! The same Wikileaks you fucking hippies love when they're undermining America. And what the fuck is a 'climatologist'? The railroad engineer and soft core porn author who heads the IPCC? The money is in the global warming lie, not in fighting that lie. And the gulf is fine, you sack of stupid shit. Must be weird to be so retarded.

  • @brainiacgames

    Your vapid arrogant ignorance is telling. Anyone that thinks he knows anything about Global Warming but doesn't know what a Climatologist is... is obviously just an Ignorant Tool of the Corporations.

    The money is from the Oil Corporations... They have dumped Millions in trying to disprove what the majority of actual Scientists believe... as opposed to the Scientists and Politicians who are on the payroll of the Oil Corporations.

  • @brainiacgames

    Were you born stupid or did your mother beat you with a stupid stick? blah blah no facts just some republicunt bullshit. like whiine whine we can't work in December - its got xmas in it and we have to go to disney world for smas. right after we pass the bill to give rich more tax loopholes and give them subsidies for xmas. whine whine...we can't afford to pay for healtcare for our heros. It just happened 9 years ago don't rush us. republicunts

  • Actually the science was shown to be completely correct. What else has been shown is the greed of the Oil Corps like BP and what they'll do in terms of lies and obfuscation. BP just tried to buy scientists for their last environmental fiasco.

  • @brainiacgames

    Instead of sucking at the ignorant teat of racist idiots like Rush the Hut, search YT for "Climate Denial Crock of the Week - 'The Medieval Warming Crock.'"

    Speaking of "braindead..." You might wanna rethink that degree in Arrogant Ignorance. I'm sure you graduated first in your class, but the only jobs out there for folks like you are with the CONservatives

  • @leesagrrl You're dead wrong. The temperature averages Gore and his lot used are from a mere 150 year span which was ended around '95. If you look at the graphs over hundred of years, that little 150 year span is a drop in the bucket for all time! Those GW scam artists stand to gain BIG MONEY from Cap and Trade and all the other hoopla they plan to put over on the people! It's a big hoax! Do the homework!!!

  • @livnfree930

    Read something other than just mainlining Corporate shills like Hannity.

    The VAST majority of Climatologists believe in "Global Warming." But you think the scientists are in on some global Conspiracy with the "GWs" (whoever they are). So there's more money in Cap & Trade than the money the Oil Corps are afraid to lose? Dream on.

    I especially love how you guys love to use abstract terms in your handles to make the brain-addled think you guys are so into Freedom and Liberty.

  • @livnfree930

    Damn... I'm amazed at how you Tea Bagging ijits can twist and bend the truth like some insane contortionist to try to believe this crap.

    Or... it's actually more likely that you are being paid to post your GOP tripe all around. And you guys are like in a flurry of activity now... must be the coming election.

  • @leesagrrl Sorry leesa. It's junk science and the UN scientists cherry picked their stats to fit the global warming agenda. It's a scam. The vast majority of climatologists do NOT believe in global warming. At least 60,000 scientists do NOT! I do not listen to Fox news. I am not a mainstream Republican. I am an Independent. The oil companies aren't going to lose a dime. LOL!!

  • @livnfree930

    Search this on YouTube:

    Climate Denial Crock of the Week - "The Medieval Warming Crock"

  • @leesagrrl I correct myself. 30,000 scientists say global warming is BUNK! And it is. It's a giant scam to make money off of raised taxes on the people. Look it up!

  • @livnfree930 Grow up.

  • @leesagrrl They spammed you - so Let me quote you - "Show me the proof of this fictitious 30,000 Scientist."

  • @livnfree930 You, too, are a tool. Just a few minutes of simple research would show you NOT ONLY who Inhofe's "30,000" actually are, and why they have the credibility of thieves, but also who pays Inhofe to be a shill and mindless happy-clapping cretin for Big Oil.

    Seriously, have you ever asked yourself WHY your rampant ignorance is a precious and prized gift to your smirking owners ?

    Get informed. Wake up. Research your sources and see the scam you're being fed.

  • @livnfree930 & brainiacgames

    Did you actually check out the video title I posted above? Obviously not. See the video before you prove your vapid ignorance. And, speaking of homework... do it before you flap your ignorant lips.

    Actually... I think you 2 are the same person. Same syntax... same sentence structure. I'm curious how much those Think Tanks pay you to post this slack-jawed ignorant crap. 25¢ a post?

  • @leesagrrl Instead of sucking twat of the pussies who push the global warming lie, why don't you read the many studies that show no correlation whatsoever between CO2 and global warming: wattsupwiththat/2011/01/01/new­-peer-reviewed-paper-absence-o­f-correlation-between-temperat­ure-changes-and-co2/

    You're right about one thing: I am smarter than you. Someday maybe you'll grow up.

  • @brainiacgames Instead of jacking yourself off you pussy coward why don't you read real scientific studies instead of bullshit crap written by shock jocks like ruch the drug addict pedophile limpdick?

  • @brainiacgames Ha ha ha ha !! Watt's up !! Ha ha ha ha ! No wonder you are so simple minded and gullible.

    Do you roll over and do tricks ? Sit up and beg ?

    I have a Bridge to Nowhere I'd love to sell you, and I KNOW you'll buy it, too.

    Wake up and see who funds Watts, see who he pimps for, and understand also why his "information" has about as much use as a document claiming the Moon is made of Green Cheese.

    You have NO reason for your craven ignorance, unless you're paid to be a clueless tool.

  • Martin is great...of course the more time that goes by, the more we see what a load of absolute horseshit the whole "Global Warming" bit really is.

  • @ChicagoDB - big oil is still giving us the stick, can't deny that

  • @ChicagoDB

    So you'd rather throw your lot in with lying idiots like Inhofe and the Oil Corporations rather than the vast majority of Climatologists? The guys that have likely destroyed gulf of mexico.

    Must be weird to be a tool for the Big Corps. You guys still getting that 25¢ per post?

  • @juscurious Yeah and the oil companies who make billions of $ they scientists they fund are the ONLY ones saying it MIGHT not be happening. The only joke is how easily the average American will fall for corporate propaganda. Of all the snake oil you could sell nobody would pick one that's against a billion $ industry. Sycophants aren't that stupid. That's why they suck Big Oil's phallus - that's where the money and power is.

  • Of course global warming is a hoax, but Martin's characterization here is brilliant!

  • At this point, it would be funnier if he was defending the ipcc.

  • robert kennedy souns like a chain smoker more then marty

  • Marty Short is the shit!

  • Bobby Kennedy is my favorite heroin addict!

  • That's the real RFK jr? His voice seems so fake, like somebody's biting his nuts, I thought it was a bad impersonation.

  • No, it him, he has a ccondition that affects is voice box. Its really him though.

  • Try SNL December 7 , 1996 season 22 episode 8

  • I've got a couple questions, first of all does anyone know what year this is?

    Second of all, what does simmons mean?

  • So far it's 1996 Saturday Night Live, Martin Short is the host and they brought in Robert Kennedy jr. to do the skit

  • I knew that it was Martin Short, Robert Kennedy Jr., and SNL, I just was wondering what year it was.

    Do you know why eveyone is saying simmons?

  • "most men don't like theater...Bobby"

  • Martin Short is a comic genuis.

  • LOL I love Nathan Thurm!

  • He's imitating the on set make up artist

  • HA HA HA Nathan Thurm has always been my favorite SNL character ... Martin Short is great!

  • Nathan Thurm was originally a SCTV character.

    SCTV was better than SNL.

  • You guys do realize this is a Saturday Night Live Skit right?

  • omG i just realized that, basically, this classic angry-denial-of-the-obvious-fa­cts Martin Short character was RIPPED OFF by Big Giant Head (aka Bill O'Reilley)

    Wow. Just... wow.

  • What a waste of human life you are, go crawl into a hole and die.

  • Whats the name of the hotdog vender he does on SNL? DONT GOOBBLE IT!

  • I think Martin Short is one of the greatest SNL comedians besides John Belushi, Steve Martin or Billy Cristal. Too bad he's underrated. He's a very talented actor.

  • spending entirely too much time on this 'Glick' character.

  • Martin Short is a genius. It is disturbing; though, how easily the Kennedy family spouts lies. Kennedy is so smarmy, he makes Short's character look dapper.

  • Why does Kennedy sound like he has a frog in his throut?

  • He has a condition called spasmodic dysphonia. Probably caused from his heroin usage.

  • O_O

    You must be a doctor!

    Lol that's the oddest sounding medical condition i've ever heard :D

  • I love this sketch. RFJ Jr's response is hilarious. He is the perfect straight man to Short's Thurm. They need to make another one about the bailout ripoff.
