Rachel Maddow Criticizes Obama on Prolonged Detention

[jonesey5168]

love her deep faux manly voice... did she have her re-assignment surgery yet?

[LordLindsey12]

Who REALLY runs our world? search "israel Did 911" and search "ZionCrimeFactory" for proof.

"US Rep. McKinney has accused the pro-Israel Lobby in America (AIPAC, ADL, etc) for ruining her political career.She refused to sign the pro-Israel pledge from Congress and took a pro-Palestinian stance. Because of this, she said “war was declared” on her by them. In 2009 she told TIU's Ognir that “more than 99% of Congress work for Zionist-Israeli interests.”

passed yesterday!

[rachiegee]

Now I'm starting to think Obama was always behind the NDAA that literally strips away our rights. Great.

[bigdollars99]

obama is a bad man

[abigbirdsfeather]

this bitch is DUMB listen to speech he never said any of this video.nytimes.com/video/2009/0­5/21/us/politics/1194840413735­/obama-sets-new-direction-on-t­error.html

[macalesterbarnes]

Crazy that this video seems relevant in Dec. 2011, when it was posted in May 2009! How my own life has changed dramatically in 2.5 years! I can only imagine how things have been for those in 'prolonged detention.'

[earthgirlful]

THIS SCARES THE CRAP OUT OF ME!

[kayhewitt]

Most terrorist's are here illegally. How about that "Past" crime? Sounds like the "Big Brother" Federal government is going to get the chance to determine what a home grown terrorist is. Hope your not type cast a home grown terrorist just because you don't follow everything that the so-called "Healthcare" plan has in it. Good luck, and hope they have heat and 3-square meals for you in the "detention centers"!

[tbenzadrine]

BHO is the worst president of all time representing the worst of the voters in America. Socialist, Communist, Liberal, Progressive, ACORN, SEIU, criminals. Amazing PMSMBC said anything critical of the "One".

[Bozo1360]

@tbenzadrine I am very critical of Obama. But he is no communist, liberal or progressive. ACORN? ACORN did nothing wrong. It was all a fabrication. SEIU is a union. You complete dumbass.

[tbenzadrine]

@Bozo1360 Go F yourself stupid Bozo. Yes BHO is a communist, socialist, progressive, livberal and criminal. BHO is not even a citizen of USA. ACORN criminal organization. SEIU criminal union organization. Bozo really stupid liar.

[HEROofANGELES]

Who is disliking this video? Seriously. You must not be from America...

[dalep0]

I can't believe this.

[kaldethyst]

Hope and Change we REALLY Can Believe in

---Ron Paul 2012---

[karmaintheflesh]

@kaldethyst Fuck you bitch. He isn't going to be president of shit.

[kaldethyst]

@karmaintheflesh - Let me give you a little education: If Ron Paul gets the republican nomination, it will be a cake walk to the white house, Pres. Obama is done. If not, his supporters aren't going to vote for the nominee, and Obama will win another term, which is exactly what you'd like, isn't it?

[pistolpete667]

you win again al queda

[Voyyful]

Not cool Obama Bear... Not cool...

[americana83]

The latest defense bill accomplished what Obama wanted here back in 2009... Obama got what he wanted... again.

Liberty again dies in the name of security. How long will it be before we have neither? Only time will tell...

[wentrikin]

Restore Civil Liberties

Legalize the Constitution

Ron Paul 2012

[dancebabe485]

I mean he's talking about Guantanamo people! We know what happened with that so get over it, worry about the present...

[dancebabe485]

This was posted in 2009, think about it

[TheJoshWeitzel]

Only time i agree with Madcow.

Obama must go and he, himself must either be locked away for life or sentenced to death.

[GeneralBlackNorway]

@TheJoshWeitzel what law shall make that possible and who is gonna make this decision? Or do you agree with Obama to go for prolonged detention and put him in prolonged detention? Now tell me what will this law practically change? Not saying I agree with this law. Hell Im not even american lol.

[brad238899]

Did he wipe his ass with the Constitution afterward? 

[SlimStrontem]

Rachel: Your racism is blatantly displayed with that "Minority Report" stuff!

[mattnaturally]

@SlimStrontem what the hell are you babbling about?

[SlimStrontem]

@mattnaturally Your mother. What's it to you?

[gordyowens]

The Constitution of the United States of America/Bill of Rights IS THE LAW OF OUR LAND !!!... WTF !!!... This is TRAGIC for America !!!...

[The51stAgent]

ron paul 2012.the revolution is coming

[TheM4ckten]

I thought you neo-cons loved George Bush's policies? You should be happy about this lol..

[Bozo1360]

@TheM4ckten

Exactly. They loved this when Bush did it.

[jasonbudd06]

Ron Paul 2012. The only one that is on the citizens' side.

[constitutionfst]

Up to now, I couldn't agreed with Maddcow on anything political, however, so clearly blatant is 0bummers malfeasance on this issue, even Maddcow can't ignore it.

Whether you're on the Left, on the Right, or someplace in-between, your freedoms are being stolen right under your nose, worse yet, it's all under the guise of an undeclared war. In this issue, the is no daylight between the actions of 0bama and Bush. 2012 is time to flush both parties down the toilet.

[delahaye1992]

Anyone who believes our government is corrupt. Bush was Obama was even George Washington was. We don't need rules or your "safety" cause all it has gotten us is hate and bullshit laws

[PIEgunz]

i say get rid of all this liberty... democracy is a fail. the people don't know what to think/

[dmcbride1978]

Well?? Where's the Ron Paul endorsement?!? He's the only presidential candidate that is against all this authoritarian nonsense.

[trizzniz]

so what? they are past criminals, if he wanted to be dishonest he could have said it was for what they have done in the past! you dont fuck with natiional security and expect a normal life after that lol

[StemsofWisdom]

Obama/bush same team, not really stunning

[vincentca2004]

Fear, Fear, Fear, Fear, Fear, Fear, Fear, Fear, Plot, Plot, Plot, Plot, Plot, Plot,

Reminds me of someone that used these tactics to take over most of Europe. Hitler anyone?

[mosesmosestv]

Say goodbye to the republic

[randytate]

GE Capital speaks out against Prolonged Detention.

[johnnyforz]

yo why dont we just all get together and wack these goofs

[randytate]

@johnnyforz Violence is what our government has trained us all to believe to be the tool of first resort.

[Shimdidly]

Although it is surprising hearing lip-service to the Constitution from Rachel, it is good to hear, regardless. You've got to give credit where it is due.

[liOVERLOADil]

@Shimdidly No credit due to this wasted meat-sack! Going against your own propaganda ONCE doesn't justify disseminating garbage so many times in the past. A reformed child-rapist still committed child-rape...

[TheDetoxRevolution]

He prolonged the Patriot act. Thank God, we are now well protected by this adhoc legal approach...wew

[ThePacNW]

This is from 2009. Since then he's threatened to veto it if the senate passes it.

[TheAlehound]

I normally don't like her but holy crap, she hit the nail on the head with this one.

[TheEricleeparker]

we need a Prolong detention of Barack Obama , so he cannot commit anymore acts of war

[Bozo1360]

Maddow is critical of Obama when it is warranted. Those of us on the left can see the difference. Obama does deserve criticism-legitimate criticism.

But he does not deserve the completely the fabricated criticism that comes from the likes of Fox News and Rush Limbaugh. "Obama's a socialist!" No he isn't and it isn't even close.

Everyone, I beg you, learn the difference between objective journalism and propaganda. Objectivity is so desperately needed in this age of prolonged crisis.

[Shimdidly]

@Bozo1360 You're right, he's not a socialist, he's a fascist. Thanks for clearing that up.

[liOVERLOADil]

@Bozo1360 Apparently you don't understand what socialism is if you think Obama isn't one. Keynesian economics, which is what Obama has been trying to rub against a weak economy since he became president, is a socialist concept. Therefore, Obama is a socialist.

[Bozo1360]

@liOVERLOADil

Keynesian economics have absolutely nothing to do with socialism. Your understanding of socialism and Keynesian economics have been formed by your constant viewing of the juvenile and false Fox News.

"We are all Keynesians now." Richard Nixon

[liOVERLOADil]

@Bozo1360 Keynesian economics purports that the state should be grown to be able to provide for the people. If that isn't socialism, then what is?

[Bozo1360]

@liOVERLOADil

Keynesian economics says nothing of the kind. Do not evaluate Keynesian economics based on a Republican/fascist caricature of it. Try a bit of objectivity. You might find it refreshing.

[liOVERLOADil]

@Bozo1360 Ok, then enlighten me... What is Keynesian economics?

[Bozo1360]

@liOVERLOADil

First, avoid right wing accounts of Keynesian economics if you want the truth. Go to any objective source -even Wikipedia. 

[liOVERLOADil]

@Bozo1360 ...OK, please continue. What is Keynesian economics?

[shiningbeans]

@Bozo1360 Most republicans(neo-cons) for the last ten years have followed religiously the teachings of Keynes. Bernanke and Greenspan were both republican chairmen of the Fed who enforced Keynesian principles. Only recently have republicans blasted Keynesians, and only because it appeals to their base. There is no evidence(not even The New Deal), the suggests definitively than Keynesian, Austrian, or any other school of economic thought is more perfect.

[Bozo1360]

@shiningbeans You are an idiot. That is the only response that fits you.

[shiningbeans]

@Bozo1360 Ya? Prove it. Read the works of Frédéric Bastiat, they are generally short, so even your dimwitted mind should be able to follow along. Also, when you call someone an idiot, make sure you can back that up, especially if you are arguing with facts.

[MagichamC]

@liOVERLOADil Sir, for your own good PLEASE study the wikipedia page of logical fallacies.

It -might- just make you look a little less mentally challenged!

[liOVERLOADil]

@MagichamC I could say that your statement is an appeal to common practice... Oh no, did I just use a logical fallacy against your use of a logical fallacy, while stating that I used a logical fallacy? Oh Jeebus, I just broke the internet...

[SisterofElune]

@Bozo1360 yes to everything you just said.

[noclue30]

AWWW This is bullsh**!!!! We need you Ron Paul!!!

[grands1am]

Well, Maddow gets my credit for this

Obama is no different, people.  More infringement on freedoms

[thechevyscrounger]

i almost fell out of my chair when i watched this ,ive never seen her lips anywhere other than on obamas ass ,maybe she's finally getting some balls,the only time i can say that she made good sense

[hypnoticbob]

@thechevyscrounger

Perhaps that's because you fail to see the difference between reasoned and unreasoned reporting?

[thechevyscrounger]

@hypnoticbob when you see that some one is steady sucking ,and they pull off for a moment to ,blast them ,its just odd

[correll28]

this is INCREDIBLE that 3 years later, this is the first ive heard of this. unreal. we are moving towards fascism, literally. the thing is, our government and media has everyone so brainwashed with propaganda that nobody even realizes why everyone hates us so much.

[TheAscheb]

MADDOW FOR PRESIDENT! lol

[TheAscheb]

I love that she always seeks truth. It isnt about a particular view or direction she seeks out truth. She investigates... she rules!!!! And she has no problem standing up for what she believes in whether it pleases any particular political party or not! Independent thinking is truly the only hope.

[goffnett]

I can't believe I just agreed with her.

[manidafonz83]

Mr. Maddow...you finally got it...I don't trust you but I recognize truth when I see it.,.kudos Maddow...this is truly double-think...

[007myrn]

Double talk....He doesn't speak poety Maddow, he speaks double speak to confuse people about his real agenda. Are you just waking up to his lies? Idot woman.

[canarycoop]

He is talking about US! Not real terrorists. Anyone who opposes his agenda is a terrorist, in HIS opinion. He plans to round up people who oppose him and put them in FEMA camps. They are all around the country. This is like a really bad movie. I just want my ticket money back! Go away, O!

[libertydogfight]

Rachel Maddow is one UGLY-EVIL-GAY-ANNOYING-DIK-SYP­­HLIS-LIBERAL,Maddow must be Alien humanoid and IT hates America, IT hates personal freedom,IT hates the Constitution, If this Whore lived 235 years ago HE/IT would be spinning lies about Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, and Maddow would be hand in hand with Benedict Arnold selling out the Founding Fathers to KING George. THE ONLY TRUE JOURNALIST IN AMERICA TODAY IS ALEX JONES!

[SisterofElune]

@libertydogfight Where did your parents go wrong?

[Centerman2k]

I've actually got no big problem with this tactic.

[weseyedwalk]

LOL MSNBC now all of a sudden wants to protect the constitution, fuck them, where were they when all the conservatives were protesting the attacks on our constitution?  MSNBC is just trying to copy FOX news so they can salvage some badly declining ratings.

[SisterofElune]

@weseyedwalk can you please tell me when liberals were attacking the constitution? On another note, the LAST thing MSNBC wants to be, is anything like FAUX News. You know, I think they like the sense of credibility.

[weseyedwalk]

@SisterofElune Well lets start with my liberal home state CA, you can't have a gun on you or in your car to protect yourself, there one, I got many more, should I ramble on?

[SisterofElune]

@weseyedwalk one at a time. okay, can't carry a gun around in public. Hmm, lets see, why can't anyone carry a lethal weapon with hundreds of people around? Couldn't be SAFETY issue, no of course not. How is being required to buy car insurance any different? It is the same principle. The government giving money to other countries is not a 'liberal' thing.. I agree though, stop giving Israel their weekly allowance for doing nothing. Oh wait, that's what conservatives want.. I forgot.

[weseyedwalk]

@SisterofElune See, your all in favor of violating the constitution yourself, and nobody forces anyone to buy car insurance, like or example people who take the bus don't have to buy car insurance and they sure don't buy it from the government as forcing people to buy or purchase from the government is another violation of the constitution, and as for Israel, they don't owe us a single dollar, they paid us back all of it.

[weseyedwalk]

@SisterofElune By the way, Joseph Stalin took away everyones guns for safety reasons, right before he murdered millions of Russians! Do you see the light? I want the people in power, not the government. This protects the people. criminals don't get guns legally so laws don't matter to them.

[weseyedwalk]

@SisterofElune How about forcing us to buy medical insurance, a product ran by the gov. and call it social security, meanwhile they grin and take that money and give it to other countries. shall I go on with more? there are many.

[Bozo1360]

@weseyedwalk Medical insurance is not a product ran by the government. You complete dumbass.

[weseyedwalk]

@Bozo1360 It is something you are forced to purchase from the governemtn, that's is illegal and unconstutional, call it product or purchase if you want but the point is,, that it is illegal DUMBASS!

[weseyedwalk]

@SisterofElune Or how about not allowing children to pray in school when the 1st amendment says congress shall make no law prohibiting the practice of religion? There is a reason MSNBC is doing poorly in ratings, people don't trust them.

[SisterofElune]

@weseyedwalk Lolol. Kids are very much allowed to pray in school, what is not allowed, is prayer LED BY SCHOOLS that are state-sponsored. So if you want your teachers to pray with the kids go to a catholic institution. And lastly, Obama not a liberal spokesperson, as you might notice, most liberals are just as appalled at this story as everyone else.

[weseyedwalk]

@SisterofElune Obama is a liberal democrat, don't try to pawn him off on us, we didn't vote for him. So I see you are very ok with violating the constitution also. Nice, do you know why we have it at all? do yo know why we have those amendments?

[Bozo1360]

@weseyedwalk

Obama is no liberal Democrat. He is not liberal at all. I'm a liberal, I would know.

[SlimStrontem]

@Bozo1360 Liberties cannot coexist with socialism, or democracy. The term "liberal" formerly and rightly belonged to the constitutionally minded -- until the "progressives" stole it as a disguise.

[Bozo1360]

@SlimStrontem

In the name of God, stop with this stupidity! Socialism and democracy are not what Fox News tells you it is. Western Europe has several "Social-Democratic" governments. You should be ashamed of your ignorance. Ashamed!

[SlimStrontem]

@Bozo1360 U got a hook, but no bait.

[weseyedwalk]

@SlimStrontem Exactly, liberal is a term used to describe the progressives, another misnomer.

[weseyedwalk]

@Bozo1360 Obama is a democrat, arguing this is silly, that's his party that's his ticket, maybe you don't like what he makes dems look like, I agree, join us conservatives and stop liberals like Obama and friends that really don't fit the definition of classic liberal at all.

[weseyedwalk]

@SisterofElune And your wrong in many schools children are not allowed to pray, or talk about God. Some schools however are teaching Islam to children, wow?!  why is this ok, but no christian crap??? what kind of liberalism is this? I call it the destruction of America.

[weseyedwalk]

@SisterofElune If Obama doesn't represent liberalism, maybe you aren't a liberal, or maybe your a moderate, you should learn about these people, 'liberals',, myself I'm a classic liberal, or a conservative, depending on your definition.

[weseyedwalk]

@SisterofElune OH, yes an gee how about the video we are commenting on, where the liberal Obama is clearly intending on violating the constitution.

[Bozo1360]

@weseyedwalk

"Conservatives" were protesting the election of a black man, nothing more.

The Tea Party was up in arms over the health care reform bill. All they were doing, unknowingly, was protecting the insurance and pharmaceutical industries. They were completely under the influence of Freedom Works and Fox News.

[weseyedwalk]

@Bozo1360 Protecting the insurance and pharmaceutical companies, what the hell do you think Obama care does? It forces us to give them money? Wow you really should pay attention and also a black man for president is what conservatives were rallying for in Herman Cain until the left finally dug up some personal dirt on him to make him look bad. So your shot down twice bozo.

[Bozo1360]

@weseyedwalk

The HCR bill preserves the for-profit health care insurance industry. But it does step on their toes in several significant ways. Now the insurance companies cannot deny coverage because of pre-existing conditions, for example.

Yes, Obama could have reined in the pharmaceutical industry more that he did. This is why so many of us are so angry with Obama. But this has zero to do with Obama's blackness.

[weseyedwalk]

LOl wow I can't stand Obama but I gotta say when are people going to recognize that POW's are released then the war is over, well the war against extreme Islam is not gonna be over anytime soon if ever, so what the fuck should we do keep releasing them so they continue to attack us and kill our soldiers or try to kill innocent American women and children? Yeah it's ugly but they want to destroy us, it is in the Qu'ran written in the war verses. MSNBC criticizing Obama? oooh lol

[jonesey5168]

I can't even believe this made it to broadcast...well said for once

[theyalllied]

Burn DC to the ground!

[Auggie56]

Huh. Didn't the last two democrat president make the same charge ?

[Johnybama]

Maddow needs to take a vacation and spend it with Ron Paul so she can convert to the light side of the Force

[theyalllied]

No, we need people that lean to the left as well

[jonesey5168]

You're Right Johnybama, in fact if you have ever seen her interview Dr. Paul, it has ALWAYS been respectful and worth the watch.

[ravenwolf789]

White man supports black man with forked tongue

[othbor]

This lesbian ass kisser got partially right this time, what she doesn't dare to say is all, is not for his friends muslins terrorists, this all is putting in place at front of the Country about what they going to do to us "domestic terrorists". Stalin did the samething to his own and they still looooooveeee him, after slayed MILLIONS of them. Is no longer necessary in this Country to hide a CRIME, when a legitimacy of those in control of power are questioned every day. Out laws are running us.
