The Day in 100 Seconds: It's Not About Muckraking

[crazyological]

It is great to see american democracy in action. You are protecting torturers as if it is no big thing, because the torturers might get their feelings hurt. Please stop exporting your form of democracy, it is poisenous....

[PersonalJesus348]

torture was always illegal...

[greatbroad]

The republicans didn't mind muckraking when Congressman Henry Hyde (IL) lead the charge against sitting President Bill Clinton...

But here we have cases of the Highest Treason: but no, we don't want to muckrake!!

[sirdaveysockrocker]

by the logic of the republicans, i can go kill 30 people, and when i get arrested just yell, STOP MUCKRAKING in the past! and THEN complain that the arrest is lowering my morale....JESUS CHRIST.

[daveVT18]

haha, well said

[thetyreed]

NOTE: this video has nothing to do with Obama (and his birth certificate). Worst filibuster ever.

[BigPurple121]

It is very disheartening to hear that a government organization conducted so much illegal behavior that there would be significant morale problems if basic oversight was implemented.

[SquallCloud]

Um

The CIA is an unethical clandestine organization. Of course they tortured people. I hate this posturing like everyone is so goddamn surprised. It's a waist designed specifically to save face.

[TheMadronas]

What a bunch of bad actors...

[oldtownkid]

Now let's go back to waterboarding and the "vital" information that the devil himself motherfucking Dickhead Cheney said was obtained using that one specific method. I hope someone up there, one of the three stooges (CNN,MSNBC & FOX) points out that all the noise the devil himself motherfucking Dickhead peace of shit Cheney made about waterboarding was bullshit.

[AtheistOnTheEdge]

Maybe this will be the next wave of conservative craziness. First there was the nutty tea-baggers, then the nutty birthers, now we have the nutty anti-healthcare reformers and soon we will have the nutty evil Cheney defenders. Their nuttiness will never end; it will just keep coming in waves.

[ProfMTH]

Indeed.

[mgband]

We, the not so nutty, have taken our country back. It actually makes me happy to see the conservatives twist in despair as their voices become less and less important.

[rkeppler3633]

We'll be kind to those under investigation. We'll give them the trial they never gave their victims, and we'll give them blindfolds before we snap their necks like breadsticks on the gallows.

[hoff100]

the investigation needs to be focused on those at the top not those at the bottom but it does need to be done because no one is above the law, not even bush/cheney, and they need to know that...they spent 8 yrs violating the constitution and international laws and working to bend the rules in their favor and they must be held accountable

[thane17]

Whatever you do media....Don't talk about the shitty economy!

[tj5555555]

so the dems continue to use the past as a smoke screen for what they are pulling now . arrest them all dems & repubs alike there's enough wrong for all of them to hang. tj

[atm94404]

CIA demoralized? 1) I think Cheney outing an undercover agent was probably demoralizing (and it was treason- even if the VP does it). 2) If someone told me "You don't have to torture anybody any more" as part of my job, that would probably lift my spirits.

[rufayel]

why is tpmtv guy cutting himself into this? Why is he any kind of an expert on these issues? I agree with him, but think its weak to use a guy who edits pathetic media pundits all day into a clip, for a flag bearer of morality or legality conversations. I like tpmtv, but they study on study on study, like the rest of the media quoting and reviewing youtube videos.

[frostwolf1]

Why doesn't Cheney have to go before a Military Tribunal?

[doink1422]

cheney needs to go to prison

[nuprincenj]

he never will , neither will all those who commited the some of the worst crimes in the bush house... and you and all of america will do nothing so just get over it

[doink1422]

your right he never will and i hate that. It shows that america is going down a dark path.

[nuprincenj]

yup get ur flash lights ready..... i got mine

[Richardgwm]

George Bush and Dick Cheney are confessed war criminals. George Bush and Dick Cheney have publicly admitted ordering the torture of prisoners of war. Torture is a war crime.

George Bush and Dick Cheney must be tried and executed.

[Baby4Sell]

ha don't drop the soap XD

[3star2nr]

well dick dont drop the soap

you dick

[boots920]

"Upholding the law" - what a joke...

[wildwilly1111]

Are you saying it's *not* about upholding the law?

Or are you saying that upholding the law is not important?

[GeoliphicMedia]

upholding the law is less important than justice, inhumane laws change only when they are challenged

we must challenge the legal assertions of the CIA and bush regime

[boots920]

Legal assertions...WTF

1776 USA ended in 1913 its been an aggressive agenda of subversion ever since that year in history.

What do you feel like knowing all the Patriots, ancestors that suffered and died did so for no other reason than corrupt idiots running the country into the ground.

My grandparents suffered through the great depression only because of a Private central bank screwing with the global economy. All Wars fought were for blood money...

profit on the death of patriots.

[boots920]

I'm saying why bother upholding laws when your own government wouldn't follow even the most basic rules of law.

Example:

In the US Gold ,Silver is legal tender that basic law has been ignored since 1913.

International Law Torture, Genocide and invading countries under false pretense is against international law.

The US government ignores all law why bother enforcing law on the home front ? Its a waste of time and money...

[wildwilly1111]

Certainly it is untrue that the government "ignores all laws"! And certainly addressing your point about ignoring international law is the whole point of this video.

Should we not make it our business to form a more perfect union, in spite of the problems? Surely you're not arguing that we should abandon all hope and accept total anarchy just because some people have committed crimes.

[boots920]

When your own government is committing the crimes without consequence either domestically or internationally I say don't worry about any of it , its a waste of time.

Notice George Bush a "War Criminal" and a traitor to his country is a free man right ?

Obama can't even produce a long form birth certificate like com'on what 's the use at looking at any of it. Its a joke get Mugabe running the country he would do a better job.

[cloud52ab]

Obama HAS presented a birth certificate, and this urban myth that he was born in Kenya has been refuted a thousand times.

[boots920]

Obama has produce a short version of a birth certificate, long version proves your citizenship. That's real basic stuff also you have MSM calling taxpayers speaking up birthers like com'on.

What year did Obama start travelling on a US passport. He's like mystery president...get Mugabe in power he'll do a better job running the country into the ground.

George Bush is a War Criminal notice Obama isn't in favor of auditing the Fed or looking into Gwya's war crimes.

USA = Justice what a joke..

[cloud52ab]

Do you honestly thing we would allow an illegal immigrant to be our president? We aren't that stupid. Obviously he had to show that he was a citizen to even run in the primaries. It's certain that he would have to be an American to be our president, and it would be foolish to believe that he is not.

[boots920]

Do you honestly thing we would allow an illegal immigrant to be our president?

Yes !!!

The US government has 0 cred, what year did Obama start travelling on a US passport and take up residence in the United States ?

[cloud52ab]

I can't even find that information about myself. Also, as far as Bush, a lot of time is being devoted to creating the proper legal argument to actually charge him.

[boots920]

Are you running to be POTUS ?

A whole book has been written for charging Bush .

You had 8 years of War Criminal , now you at least get 4 years of Usurper.

[taoofmichael]

War criminal. Thats bad.

Usurper? Thats bad too.

Would a man who was appointed by the Supreme Court to the presidency be rightly called a usurper?

Or a man who was elected by a solid majority?

[boots920]

Or a man who was elected by a solid majority?

Have you observed the intelligence of the American taxpayer?

You don't even know when Obama started traveling on a US passport. USA = Pineapple Republic (Island Girl says it looks good, hamster population you could tell them the moon was made out of cheese and they would believe it).

[taoofmichael]

Well, I know he was born in Hawaii, spent a few years of his childhood in Indonesia, then came back to Hawaii and went to school.

I love pineapple!! Oops, guess that makes me a socialist.

[boots920]

He attended school in Indonesia, the only way he could attend is if he was a Indonesian citizen. When did Barry change his name back to Obama ? What year ? When did he start traveling on a US passport and start residing in the US.

[taoofmichael]

You do not need to be an Indonesian citizen to attend school in Indonesia -- that is a crock of tin-foil Glenn Beck horseshit.

I read both of his books, Dreams of my Father, and Audacity of Hope, and I must admit, I did not memorize the dates. He must have been 10 or 11. Pray, tell us?

So your contention is that Obama is an illegal alien?

This assertion renders all further assertions from you -- in the kindest terms I can muster, unreliable.

[boots920]

Obama was adopted by his Indonesian father.

What year did Obama renounce his Kenyan citizenship ?

Its a formality you do it when you are age of majority ?

The truth stands alone...no passport paperwork , no dates or years, its all so very "unprofessional".

[taoofmichael]

Obama was not adopted by his Indonesian step-father, actually -- not that it would make any difference. He retains his father's name, Obama.

Barack Obama, the president, was never a Kenyan citizen, and never visited Kenya until he was an adult..

The truth does, indeed, stand alone. Obama is a US citizen, and the rightly elected president of the United States, elected by a solid, irrefutable, majority -- unlike Bush.

[boots920]

Bush is a War Criminal right ?

He's walking around as a free man right ?

When you are born you inherit your father's citizenship so you can travel. At this point people can only assume that Obama's a US citizen. So how come all the court time ? Obama has spent 1 million in court time...its ridiculous like I said UNPROFESSIONAL. It make the states look like a joke.

[taoofmichael]

Please cite source for your $1 million court time charge. What was the case he was supposedly spending all this money on? Or did you hear it on Glenn Beck?

[boots920]

Google court costs for Obama defending himself in court .

I've never witnessed such mickey mouse bull shit in all my life.

[taoofmichael]

Bush made the states look like a joke.

Obama has restored at least a little of the respect we once had. But he still has a lot more to do. He is definitely moving in the right direction though.

[boots920]

He's expanding the war in Afghanistan right ?

There's still troops in Iraq right ?

1.2 million dead Iraqi's - Genocide right ?

[taoofmichael]

In America, when you are born on American soil, you are an American citizen, regardless of the citizenship of your father. Ask all the Mexican nationals that have had babies on American soil. They know the rule. Why are you having so much trouble with it?

[boots920]

You're a American citizen but not a "Natural Born" citizen.

High school stuff you need to be born on US soil as a US citizen. Obama's father wan Kenyan, he was never eligible from the get go.

[taoofmichael]

If you are born on American soil, you are a "natural born" citizen -- regardless of where your father was born, or what citizenship your father holds. High school stuff, indeed.

[boots920]

If that's the case why did they bother putting it in the US Constitution as an eligibility requirement ?

Natural Born is a Truth the only way you can meet the requirement is to be born on US soil as a US citizen.

McCain wasn't eligible was he so how come the government idiots let him run for office ? Don't follow the rule of law you get poor return on your taxpayer money.

Example congress declares war not drunk War Criminals right. Look at the state of the US its toast all because of bull shit

[taoofmichael]

Barack Obama, the president, was born in Hawaii, USA.

[boots920]

That's the rumor but even if its true the best buddy could be is a naturalized US citizen (paperwork).

Not eligible to be president don't worry about it the hamster population voted for the Usurper. He's in power right that's why the US isn't going to be around for much longer.

[p00lman]

Birthers are adorable.

[boots920]

You mean taxpayers are getting pissing off with the bull shit propaganda.

[p00lman]

No, I mean you're a birther, and your behavior is adorable.

[boots920]

That's so deep in a cess pool kind of way you should run for office.

[p00lman]

It's deep because it's the truth. You're a birther and you act adorably.

[boots920]

Cesspool = p00lman (its a dirty job but someone has to do it)

Obama = Usurper (in power illegally)

Keep with the program p00man

[p00lman]

Do you even know what "usurp" means? You don't usurp if you win a popular vote.

[boots920]

Orca - Obama is the one

MSM - Calling taxpayers birthers

Iraq - Weapons of Mass Destruction

250,000 patriots sleep on the streets

1 in 7 homes in foreclosure

2 trillion dollar deficit (makes bush look like a conservative)

"You don't usurp if you win a popular vote".

PROPAGANDA, der furher would be so proud

[p00lman]

Usurp refers to taking something by force.

The country voted Obama in.

Shut the hell up already, crazy birther.

[boots920]

Usurper : take (a position of power or importance) illegally or by force : Richard usurped the throne.

No long form, no passport history ... you mean the hamster taxpayers got fooled again.

Orca " Obama is the one" der furher is so proud of his election by We the hamsters...

[p00lman]

He.

Was.

Voted.

He didn't take anything. WE, US, THE PEOPLE - we elected him.

And I don't know who the hell Orca is and I don't care, so shut the hell up please.

[boots920]

He was voted but not eligible to run because he's a Naturalized citizen, maybe . Could still be Indonesian or Kenyan. Don't know its a secret...

Orca = Oprah silly she's in on the deception just like MSM.Goebbels had to work overtime on that deception but looks like it worked out great.

All propaganda has to be popular and has to accommodate itself to the comprehension of the least intelligent of those whom it seeks to reach.

Adolf Hitler

Taxpayers aren't too swift...

[p00lman]

You DON'T KNOW. Exactly. So why are you making stupid accusations if you DON'T KNOW?

He was voted in, therefore he usurped nothing.

[boots920]

No long form buddy its basic stuff if you want to ignore the obvious go ahead. He's not in power legally ...

Its all bull shit...

[p00lman]

14th Amendment. Presidential election. Bill passed July 25th.

You're too late. Should've decided to be a birther a year ago.

[boots920]

USA = Banana Republic

[p00lman]

Then go somewhere else. We certainly aren't asking you to stay.

[muslcop]

please just IGNORE the idiots like boots920. It does not matter how many times Obama produces his birth credentials, it will never be enough for idiots like this. He is the kind of person that is presented with a Coke can and challenges you to PROVE that its really red. Just shows that there is none so blind as those that WILL NOT see.

[boots920]

What year did Obama apply for his US passport ?

Its a secret...what credential has obama provided 1 short form birth certificate its a joke.

You mean I'm not buying the propaganda , you still have troops in Iraq right for what purpose ? Obama has lied already.

[wildwilly1111]

Birthers are Tribbles - adorable in small numbers but, if left unchecked, able to overwhelm the system with pointlessness.

[boots920]

Truth stands, even if there be no public support. It is self-sustained.

Mohandas Gandhi

Long Form proves US citizenship, short form proves you were born

14 years residence in the United States, when did Obama start travelling under a US passport and start residing in the United States.

[wildwilly1111]

Be the change that you want to see in the world.

Mohandas Gandhi

[boots920]

1.2 million dead Iraqi's, Iraq 's a parking lot and the US government is talking about healthcare.

4 Trillion spent and in future obligations,

I can guarantee you the US government won't be part of the change the globe needs.

Wave the flags now hamsters watch your country implode.

[brandonhansentx]

Where you from? Got any oil?

[boots920]

No oil plenty of trees to make paper money with...

You want oil get some from the fouled Alaskan beaches where the super tanker hit the reef. Looks like that area is fucked for 100's o years.

Got Freedom ?

[boots920]

What's your point hamster, I'm trying to state the fact that you have an illegal immigrant running your country into the ground.

What are you saying with Gandhi's quote ?

[EmperorKagato]

sup bot.

That's all you can post is birth certificate right?

BIRTH CERTIFICATE. BIRTH CERTIFICATE.

[boots920]

Super Truth

What year did Obuma start traveling on a US passport

PASSPORT PASSPORT

Eligibility requirement to be POTUS

14 years permanent residence

What year did the Usurper change his name back to Obama?

[wildwilly1111]

OK, let's say I buy what you're selling - because some things are broken, we shouldn't worry about anything.

If that's the case, if *you* buy what you're selling - why are you continually posting? Why are you wasting you time? (And, more to the piont, why are you wasting ours?)

[boots920]

I have my own personal reasons , who cares what this peasant has to say. The only people that care are the ones that ridicule the message right ? Don't want the truth to come out now do you !

Why do you even waste your time in responding ?

[p00lman]

You're a racist. That's your personal reason.

[boots920]

A Racist gee don't want to be one of those idiots quote me on my racist statement ?

[p00lman]

You insist that Obama's Kenyan, as if it's impossible for a black man, and a black president, to be born in America. That's pretty racist right there.

[boots920]

Are you saying Obama is a full black man ? Like get real he's half white. The tragedy here is that an individual of color finally gets an opportunity to lead and you don't even know if he's in power legally.

I haven't seen any paperwork to even prove Obama is a US citizen. You have a mystery president, his background is a secret came to power with idiots like Orca saying "he's the one". Very sad to witness...

[p00lman]

He is in power legally.

He was voted in.

He was legally confirmed as the president in a bill.

Get over it. You lost.

[boots920]

Certainly it is untrue that the government "ignores all laws"!

Name one law that the US government is following ?

What's the sense of busting a kid for an oz of pot if the US government is involved in genocide 1.2 million dead Iraqi's.

[p00lman]

Newton's.

[CaramelAnt]

You clearly don't understand at least half of the words you have been writing.

[boots920]

I'm saying uphold the rule of laws that mean something.

On Patriot Acts 1 and 2

- Paper Fiat Money

- Invading countries without congress declaration

- Bailing out private business

- Central Bank (Federal Reserve) "Communism"

All laws which are repugnant to the Constitution are null and void.

Marbury vs. Madison, 5 US (2 Cranch) 137, 174, 176 (1803)

[SabuPtolemy]

Chain Dickey = war criminal who should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of International Law, for everything from making deals with his then buddy Saddam Hussein in the early 80's to all the crimes committed under Bush Inc..

[mavaddat]

Do see all those Republicans who talk about a "chilling effect" always say it with a sort of half smile -- realizing that it's that time again -- time to pull out the bullshit.

[Donvito951]

Good ol Dick Cheney. Hes lost it.
