  • Two general comments and one specific- The Real News is one of my new favorites. The choices of topics, as well as the interview subjects, are real and refreshing. Must be Canadian, eh? This interview is one of many examples. Also, not nearly as much cursing and ad hominem attacks as many other sites that try to inform. If you want to see what the next fifty years can look like, find Zeitgeist Addendum and see what Jacques Fresco and Roxanne Meadows envision via The Venus Project.

  • This guy wouldn't budge on giving Democrat-friendly, prepackaged answers when asked questions about the Obama administration or especially Obama himself. This kind of party loyalty, especially with the Democrats' poor record on real progressive reform, makes Anthony and other "progressives" look like partisan pundits on cable news shows.

    Luckily, this wasn't the fault of TRN, as Paul refused to let up on the hard questions. Journalism this good is rarely, if ever, seen in our corporate media.

  • Another liberal with no concept of class conflict who thinks that rich and poor, exploiter and exploited can sit together, hold hands, and sing "kumbaya". I'm not impressed.

  • Here's a better idea - people must force administrations to eliminate 90% of their bureaucracy & 90% of their income tax.

    The money left over would pave way for the one thing that Made western civilization great: Freedom.

  • Dear Vet,

    Freedom from what? To do what? Define freedom? Are you free? How are you free? What are you not free to do? How has this changed since the dawn of time? How has this not changed from the dawn of time? Ah freedom, a word that means the opposite of what it means. Freedom (as it has been taught to me by our society) is: being able to choose the manner in which we become enslaved. I do believe, my friend, that we can never truly be free.

    Peace,

    Biter.

  • Ah, my philosopher friend - you are correct. My reference was more in tune to the freedoms granted to Americans during their first 150 years - paving the way to the most prosperous civilization in our known history.

    Through lack of gov't interferance, man has repeatedly excelled in raising living standards.

    Today - unethical relationships that exist between gov't & big corporations, along with massive self serving gov't agencies have enslaved us all.

    Please don't bit me ;)

  • Dear Vet, You have been 'granted' a reprieve, you will hense forth be "free" from being biten by me. However, this freedom will be taken away if you can't paint me a better correlation between Prosperity and Freedom. If freedom only "paved the way..." are you saying that upon restricting those freedoms that is when America truly became the most prosperous ever? So then freedom is not what makes western civilization great (as it only paves the way)? Is this what you are now saying?

    Biter.

  • Obama is focused on the middle class because we Americans are delusional and think everybody is middle class. I live almost paycheck to paycheck in my family and my father says "we're middle class". My aunt's family makes $170,000 a year and they tell me "we're middle class, really.". Nobody can talk about it honestly.

  • Did it take a critical mass of people to get the stimulus package to wall street? NO.

  • Dear Plum369,

    Well put plum... well put! Any smart replies from the fascist/corporatist camp??? No??? Not being able to answer this question is a base requirement to become a corporate media personality. I hear it also helps to pretend you are religious too but I digress. Again great comment!

    Peace,

    Biter

  • Boy is that the truth... The car needed to die in the 1980's... It amazies me how dumb we are to sit in traffic and not think about a better way... Trains... Buses... Something

  • Paul Jay sounded real pissed off about Obama. good stuff.

  • I think Michael Moore is addressing this problem. We The People haven't got a voice anymore. Our government can't hear us because their ears are stuffed full of big-corporation, mega-capitalist dollars.

    There are plenty of people near the top that are bright people who know what needs to be done. There isn't the willpower to push away from the lucrative special interest table and work for real people.

  • it's a shame any attempts to fix it are labeled as "ANTI-CAPITALIST, SOCIALIST FILTH!" :(

  • I'm getting so I don't care how they label it. Pro-capitalists should be hanging their heads in shame! The idiots are mostly upper-middle-class jerks who haven't felt the sting yet and think they never will. They defend 1-3% of the people OWNING damned near everything and everyone because in their foolishness they think the kind master will toss them bones with a bit of meat on them or even sillier that they might get to be in the top 3% themself and have their own slaves. Arrrrgghhh!

  • If you talking about an actual freemarket sans central bank then yes that does equal public and the people.

    As for giving political parties more power. Well they have been, for the past 100 years or so. Enormous power has been giving in the past 10 years. Have things gotten lots better?

    So I guess if we give them even MORE power, the next 10 years will be like a multiple of the last 10 years.

    I don't know, that just doesn't seem like a good idea to me.

  • bbburton is a grade A troll. Ignore him.

  • flyhead2 has shit for brains. Listen to him if you want to be as ignorant as a dust mite.

  • Good thing the evil state has given us enough education to know your a nut

  • typical republitard garbage. zero facts, all ad hominems.

    gtf out of here.

  • even though i'm going to school to become a lawyer. Haha, you're a clown and you proved it with your own words!

    Next you'll be calling me a "liberal elitist". Hahaha, oh man.

  • i can't tell whether you're trying to insult me by saying i can't afford over-priced private law schools or what.

    Speak english.

  • You couldn't tell if your ass was a hole in the ground or hiding place for your finger. Try learning English, dipshit. I didn't stutter, you moron. You certainly didn't get into any school on your own merits with the idiotic crap you've posted. Did I say loser? I meant pathetic loser.

  • Nice ad hominems. Did they teach you to utter such libel in republitard school?

  • How wonderful for you to be able to spell a word you couldn't define if your life depended on it. Did you use spell checker, or did you do it the old fashioned way with a dictionary? I'd say you don't even own a dictionary, so you probably used spell checker. How long did it take you to find the word in the first place? You certainly don't know what it means, so you must have just like the sound of it. Pathetic loser.

  • Yes, fight more ad hominems with more ad hominems. That'll work!

    Cause attacking the person and *not* the argument is a GREAT strategy in these parts.

  • Let's get this straight. You posted 'typical republitard garbage. zero facts, all ad hominems. (sic) gtf out of here.', and you claim I'm attacking the person and *not* the argument. Now aren't you just the sort of ignorant ass you claim to despise?! You haven't made one statement addressing anything I've posted. You really have outdone yourself, you pathetic loser.

  • Yes, you were. why would I even use the term ad hominem if the comment i was REPLYING to didn't contain an attack on the person??

    What're you even talking about??

  • Ooh, capital letters, you must be sucking your own penis in order to make that statement.

  • Zero sense from a nonsensical abject retard.

  • How log did it take your mother to push you out of her ass?

  • not as long as it took for me to cum in your mom's ass.

  • Unlikely, since cum a three year old like you can't cum.

  • sense: you make none.

  • Still a retard.

  • Here, i'll demonstrate the justificatiton behind my "ad hominem" claim on your original comment here:

    the government isn't telling us any such things, so that was a lie. TRNN isn't "just another propaganda machine", which is an ad hominem since you don't put forth ANY facts/reasoning why you state this and why it's even relevant. And that "traitor" comment? lololracist (yes I went there, douchebag). Ergo, shut up

  • Your ignorant fuck. Jay is a traitor and your his butt buddy. All Jay pushes is how bad the US is, how Obummer hasn't kept his promises, how sad it is that all the bailout money wasn't given to sorry ass pissants like you. The facts are all present in TRNN's posting, you dirt bag. Relevant?! You're about as relevant as you're supposed attempt at law school. Get off your pathetic loser's ass, and quit trying to make others support your ignorant deadbeat life. Ergo, pathetic loser.

  • Just what I said would happen: insult first, then fail to back up the accusation/insult. Typical of republitards. Keep it up! we need to see your *true* self through all the rhetoric.

  • Insulting you would be about as easy as picking dirt off a pigs ass. You're a deadbeat, a freeloader, and a blight on society. Going to law school?! What a joke. That's what everyone expects from affirmative action. Shit for brains trying to pass as an intellectual. Still a pathetic loser.

  • You shouldn't even say the word "law school" because even the idea and concept goes over your head. Yes, it's a SCHOOL, you know, where people go to be educated (in this case, in a particular range of fields).

  • Just a pathetic loser, on the dole, and without affirmative action, wouldn't even be considered for grade school, let alone law school. You're a joke without a punchline. The only school suited for you is reform school. Pathetic loser.

  • affirmative action? A) I earn my way to wherever I go, and B) lol racist much? Keep showing the repugnantparty to be a party of pathetic loser racists.

  • Stealing from others is not earning your own way. The only reason you voted for Obama is because he's black, and he's a socialist shit like you. Who's the racist, shit for brains?

  • Stealing now? LOLOL just cause i'm black you're saying THAT SHIT. Wow you're explicit with your racism. I take it by the time this is all said and done, you're gonna be shouting the N word n burning crosses praising hitler n shit. Fucking fascist.

  • No, that wouldn't be me, since the only people I ever hear say that word are your own people. The only racist here is the one who brought it up in the first place, you. Pathetic loser, that you are, still.

  • "your own people"

    Are you even aware of the scientific evidence dislodging any empirical claims to the notion of "race".

    Oh whoops, i forgot; you're an idiot. My bad.

  • I'm aware that race is still a sociological term used widely to refer to ethnic cultural groups. And yes, you are still a pathetic loser.

  • look up the definition for psychological projection, cause you're definately doing it here. You keep referring to racial/ethnic stereotypes, accusing me of stealing, lying, not working + being lazy, being uneducated, etc etc, without being able to know ANYTHING of such sort. And I'd reckon its cause you looked at my display picture.

    Take your moronic idiocy n shove it.

  • And you keep propping up this moronic socialism that the progressives keep pushing. That makes you a pathetic loser. Why? Because it is the racial/ethnic stereotypes progressives, like you, represent. And how do progressives champion their cause? By assaulting those who are educated, employed, stake holders, who take personal responsibility as a way of life. Progressives blame everyone else for their problems, and expect everyone else to bail them out. You really are a fucktard, aren't you?

  • You don't know what socialism is. You keep trying to define me into some neat little psychological knee-jerking responsive category so you can better rationalize away your failure.

    Sadly that, too, is fail. Miserably.

  • You conclude what my ENTIRE political philosophical ideology is based on my RACE? LOLOLLOLOLOLOLLOLOL

    So you admit to being a racist. Cause, you know, no black person could ever be right wing, or libertarian, or just plain a centrist (aka Obama).

    You're a buffoon of the highest order. Just shut the fuck up before I smack you.

  • No, not on race, you're just a plain old run-of-the-mill dirt bag, who just happens to have black skin. You'd be a dirt bag no matter what skin color simply because you cry with your hand out, support affirmative action, support Obummer (who is not a centrist, you ignorant fuck), and stick up for your fellow dirt bags like TRNN. Your answer to everything is it's somebody else's fault that you're a dirt bag. You know it, and I know it. Just a pathetic loser, who couldn't smack his own chops.

  • where you're getting the material for your fodder (dirt bag? LOLOLOLOL) from is beyond me. You seem really desperate to hold on to your small piece of (distorted) reality.

  • And you are determined to clutch your penis as if it really had a purpose beyond pissing on yourself.

  • penis? obsession much?

    Pervert.

    Anywayz, keep spreading lies.

  • Still a pathetic loser, without a clue, intent on basking in your ignorance. Penis in hand, you'll march through life believing you have a firm grasp on the answer to life. Pathetic loser.

  • hogwash.

    you've parroted the same lines over and over again.

  • And yet you still keep that penis in your hand, refusing to admit your ignorance, intent on repeating the same mantra all losers intone; the gov owes me a life, the gov is my savior. Still a pathetic loser, and always will be.

  • You're very fascinated with the male anatomy, aren't you? JUst come out of the closet already, ffs.

    anywayz, quit posting here. Youv'e said nothing of substance.

  • And you're incessantly fixated on holding on to your penis as if it's the only thing that will save you from your ignorance. You're quit content to tell others what to do, yet unable to accept the fact you are powerless to stop anyone with your empty threats. And yes, you are still just a pathetic loser.

  • Actually, no i'm not fixated on such a thing. But keep dreaming, man. I bet you love to think about such things.

    Like i said before: come back when you've got something of substance to say. Your inarticulacy betrays your deceptive motives.

  • Not satisfied with just holding onto your penis, now your determined to stick it up your ass, in defiance of your inability to control others. Your ignorance knows no bounds, and is certainly not limited by your ego. Unfortunately for you, raging against others with only your penis in hand will only make you more angry, not less stupid. And yet you continue to revel in being a pathetic loser.

  • get my cock outta yer mind, douchebag. You're creeping me out.

    Also: You still haven't said anything of substance.

  • lolololool, progressive rile on Obama all the time for catering to the interests of the right at the EXPENSE of the interests of the left. He's a centrist in every sense of the word. You know nothing.

  • Yet, it's the progressives that continue to stick up for him; oh, it's the fault of congress for not passing his agenda, oh, it's the tea baggers who get in the way of his agenda. And what does Obummer do? He crafts his agenda to placate the progressives. And who did he get from the conservatives to support his health care agenda? Olympia Snow and all the democrats on the committee. And he calls that bipartisan. You're a progressive, and still a pathetic loser.

  • progressives? LOLOL you don't even watch the videos here on TRNN do you? You know how many on here in which people complain obama isn't doing enough?

    THat's proof of your delusion. Checkmate, sir.

  • Complaining isn't the issue, these assholes, just like you, stick up for Obummer, no matter how much they carp on him, just like you do. Oh, it's just that he isn't doing enough. Are you really that stupid? From what I've seen, yes, you really are that stupid. And your still a pathetic loser.

  • You've lost this discussion. You know nothing.

    Progressives are critical of Obama, and so it's the right wing, because he's a centrist. You're a fool if you cannot even realize this.

  • You dirt bag, there never was a discussion going on in the first place. Do you even realize who makes up his closest advisers? The same people who worked for the Clintons. Keep thinking Obummer is a centrist, and you'll continue to be as dumb as you apparently are.

  • Of course there wasn't. You haven't heard a word I said. Keep parroting those talking points.

  • You haven't said anything worth listening to. Obummer is no centrist, he's a progressive, and it doesn't matter whether he's a left progressive, a right progressive, or a centrist progressive. And to imply that he is a centrist in any other context is just plain ignorant. And you're still a pathetic loser.

  • I haven't said anything worth listening? What are you, 2 years old? Are you unable to read?

    Obama's a MAJOR centrist. That's how he got elected. Nobody would vote for an "Angry black man", mirite mr. kkk?

  • No, you haven't said anything worth listening to, idiot. Take your angry black bullshit and cry a river to someone who gives a shit. Obummer isn't angry, he's a progressive socialist. You're still a pathetic loser, and ignorant too boot.

  • LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

    Obama's not a socialist nor progressive. You're an idiot.

  • also, center and right + progressive = contradiction.

    LOLOLOLOLOLOL you know nothing!

  • Like I said, you're an ignorant pathetic loser. And Obummer is a progressive socialist loser just like you.

  • you're like a child that only knows how to call people names. sit down, kid; the big boys are tryna have an adult conversation.

  • The only conclusion I make is that you are still a pathetic loser. You've proven it time and time again.

  • Also, you don't know what "socialism" is. don't use big words you have no understanding of.

  • Still trying to pass yourself off as educated? How lame. But that's all that can be expected from such a pathetic loser such as yourself.

  • ALLLLLL insult, ALLL bark, NO bite/facts.

    Just kill yourself. You're a waste of human skin.

  • You couldn't demonstrate pouring piss out of a boot with the directions written on the heel.

  • Rofl, does the baby want his bottle? COme at me when you can actually participate in an intellectual discussion. Until then, sit, kid.

  • It is impossible to delve into an intellectual conversation with someone like you who totally lacks any intellect. Let me know when your mama lets you out of your highchair.

  • It's impossible to try to speak intelligently to someone willfully stupid such as yourself. You ignore anything you don't want to hear, so you can never be proven wrong on anything. How convenient!

  • And you've done so well at propping up your bullshit. Still a pathetic loser.

  • I've given you ample opportunities to engage in a meaningful dialogue yet your only reply was to shout accusations, insults and do everything to abstain from *answering* my criticisms directly.

    Cry more plz.

  • How benevolent of you to give me ample opportunities. 'Answering your criticisms' is so worth my time and effort, or would be if you weren't such a pathetic loser.

  • you aren't even trying anymore, are you?

  • That stimulus funding is taking from everyones hard work/debt and to be spent unproductively is a crime fundamentally.

    Spending money on unproductive areas of the economy is false.

    Too much regulation to prevent competition like in the case of the bus services is why no big bus companies wont touch it. Its all bull that these companies have created this environment.

    Collectivist thinker, its sick. "Socialially just" :S

  • This is part of the problem with the US. People are still in the mindset that the best way to run things is the people through government. All things.

    They forget that it takes four years to get an administration to change. Even once it DOES change, it's the other of only two parties who may not actually have different policies on the item you are looking at. The more they control the more of a package telephone deal you get.

    That's a pretty crappy way of running anything.

  • as opposed to......???

    Cause the freemarket != public != the people.

    I agree though, a political system change is necessary, probably become more like the UK or Canada in terms of giving parties a bit more power to get the shit they get elected on DONE.
