  • Best country in the world?? I doubt it.

  • The Republicans are more concerned about sabotaging this country to make it look like Obama "isn't dong his job" than do what's right for the people to get us out of this mess. Hopefully brainwashed conservatives can see this. Probably not though.

  • what a bunch of children

  • Oh wow.

    WOW.

    This is RIDICULOUS.

  • Di- did I just see a room full of adults engage in a massive "LA LA LA LA LA I CAN'T HEAR YOU" campaign?

    Really?

  • OBAMA SUX! the only change is higher taxes

  • I object!

  • if i were the girl talking i would have told the first guy that interrupted me to SHIT THA FUCK UP!

  • I miss that guy with glasses on the show, I just hated when he yelled or got all obnoxious. I really don't like this new dude.

  • Childish retardists (GOP) fuckers

  • Sooo, the republican, or conservative way, is to be a responsible individual, and the democrat, or progressive way, is that everybody will be responsible for your irresponsibility. Doesn't anybody see the abject assholery of this attitude?? I mean, what the fuck!! I don't want or need anybody being responsible for my decisions, good or bad, and I sure as shit don't want to be responsible, in any way, for anybody who makes stupid choices.

  • LISTEN UP CLASS! If you have an objection, there are ways to state it without shouting over your classmates when they are trying to speak. Continued disruption of the classroom will result in detention slips being handed out and referrals to principal's office being written up. Your parents may also be informed of your unacceptable behavior.

  • Sorry did somebody say The GOP were "pro-life"?

  • I object I object I object Mr. speaker I object Mr. Speaker Mr.Speaker I object I object.

    Whoa I bet Mr.Speaker was annoyed.

  • Mr. Speaker, I object these republicans being in the house!!!

  • "i object i object" SHUT THE FUCK.........UP!

  • LOL, so quick to object without hearing the verdict

  • scank you old turd, what a LOSER.

  • LMFAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    mister speaker i would like to say tha< I OBJEEEEEECT, i object i object i object

    i dont know what shes gonna say.. but.... i object

  • Not the America "we" built? Sorry Cenk, but your people weren't here.

    Fact: it is UNCONSTITUTIONAL to make a federal mandate that people MUST buy gov't-approved healthcare.

    Fact: we are taxed to subsidize these companies, then we are forced to pay for it AGAIN when they cover us?

    Fact: if we weren't wasting money killing overseas, we'd be able to afford this, but we can NOT until we stop that bullshit and put ourselves back together.

  • Fact: Turkish Americans have been around for centuries

    Fact: No article of the constitution denies the government's right to tax for utilities and national assets like energy, roads, schools, soldiers, and health care

    Facts: Insurance companies don't need your fictitious government subsidies. It is insurance corporations who own and subsidize politicians

    Fact: You're right, we could easily have had single-payer universal health care for less than it cost to incite civil war in Iraq

  • I believe he's mentioned that his family has not been in the country for long.

    Fact: Those rights not outlined in the Constitution for the Fed gov are left to the states.

    Fact: Insurance companies will be subsidized by our tax dollars, then we will be charged again. (You are defending our bought and paid for politicians? What?)

    Why do you trust such a corrupt government to do anything in your best interest? This makes more money for ins. and pharma companies, while it takes away from us.

  • Cenk moved to America at a young age; I was responding to the Pat Robertson-esque "your people" comment

    Powers neither granted nor denied by the constitution might not fall to states, that is a simplistic interpretation the Supreme Court doesn't share

    You said earlier insurance companies ARE subsidized and clearly do not understand HR 3962

    I don't trust the government or corporations nor made any such insinuation, but right now only a handful of democrats bear semblance of public interest

  • No wonder you can't get anything done in the US. They're all 5 yo children running the place. Isn't there some law that states that once the floor is yielded to someone it's their turn to speak uninterrupted? Shit.. why don't they do this when the morons start to talk about death panels and sex clinics..

  • in america there seems to be a lack of a social or moral consensus, there is no common basis for conduct, much of especially the right wings behaviour simply shouldnt be dignified with any consideration, but instead you end up having a debate with them, wasnt it jefferson who warned of argueing with ppl who have surrendered their reason - these people have surrendered even the pretext of it

  • Lmao i like how they start saying I object before they start speaking. xD

  • thats pathetic

  • i object, i object, i object, i object.........will you shut the fuck up!!!! haha that would be hilarious if he just yelled at her like that

  • "I object, I object, I object!" *plugs ears* "Lalalalalala...I can't hear you!  Lalalala..."

  • I Object...I Object...I Object Lmao what a bunch of kids.

  • And I don't even know why they are objecting. For God's sake shut the fuck up and let people talk.

  • Usually I admire how well the American congress is conducted.

    So much more civilized than the Australian or British style!

    But this behavior on this video is disappointing..

  • Around the world there two ways to deal with universal care. One is a single payer the other is to require insurance companies to cover everyone. People are mandated to buy it; insurance for the poor is subsidized. Some of them also have mandates on insurance company profits as-well.

  • these guys sounded just like my kids when they where 3ish

  • Well I love politics but can't trust the people we place in that area anymore as the power has gone through their head.

  • Does that mean that when a woman falls pregnant she should pay an extra fee to the insurance company (while women who never get pregnant pay the same premium as men) or that men should subsidise all health care related to women's reproductive bits that they don't have, can never have and will never need medical care for?

  • I think you forget that just as many men have children as women :) , just because the woman happens to be the vessel for pregnancy and is subject to most of the danger that is involved with this responsibility is it really fair that she should shoulder all the financial burden aswell, there should be paternal responsibility too. Your argument makes as much sense as if women demanded that all unborn fetus's should arange to have there own medical insurance coverage for when they're in the womb.

  • It wasn't an arguement it was a question... two options to pick from.

    Last time I checked ONE man is capable of impregnating a different woman every few hours (or minutes in some cases). I am not a breeder, and while healthcare is free here if I wanted private insurance I would think of something more to say right here.

  • fair enough, I'm sorry I misinterpretted your question :)

  • I Object...I Object...I Object...I Object..."Am I winning yet? I thought of this strategy all on my own with no help from Mommy"

  • No you are not winning yet, you have to do it faster and louder.

  • Ana? Where is Ana?  I WANT MY ANA !!!

  • As soon women stepped onto the podium, the republicans started barking.... half of them didn't even get to finish one sentence!!!

  • ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME! what happened to acting like a fucking adult what is this childish bullshit!?

  • LOL, "Dick Army".

  • What do you think the government should do if a terrorist organization was running around America murdering 45,000 Americans every year?

    Play grab ass in the House and Senate with them?

    Ask them to co-sign a bill?

    Or would we unleash our brave men and women in the armed services to turn those terrorists into disorganized piles of flesh and stop the flow of innocent American life?

    Republican terror must be brought to an end. they are America's greatest national security threat.

  • ^^what the rest of the world thinks

  • Wait a minutes, wait a minute, WAIT, Wait A, WAIT A MINUTE!!!

  • This was a good episode... oh, I meant a good episode of "The Congress Circle-Jerk Show," not TYT, just to clarify

  • What are they trying to fillibuster? Their names should be taken down and they should be exposed to their constituents and hopefully voted out.

  • The people screaming object are acting like children, the issue doesn't even matter in the situation. It is bullshit that they keep screaming object.

  • lol being a woman is a pre-existing condition .... rotfl

  • Want more proof the GOP is not interested in debating reform. All they want is to delay and obstruct.

  • i can guarantee that you could find the same vid but with dems.

    come on people the parties aren't that different.

  • Hypocrites...You could hear the voice of FREEDUMB'S Michelle Bachman's voice objecting....I guess she and the rest of her knuckle dragging party believe in Free Speech only if they are the ones speaking...

  • object those sluts

  • pieces of shit. we have you on tape you low life corporate shills

  • am i the only one that felt that objecting women was Kanye Wests sister?

    "Yo, ima let you finish, but private healthcare is the best healthcare of all time, OF ALL TIME!"

  • wow that is so mature

  • These lame duck Republicans piss me off

  • un be fuckin lievable

  • Was that annoying voice on the other side of the isle Michele Bachmann?

  • @Joxman2k BINGO!

  • And the Republican party isn't the party of no?

  • If Sarah P thinks dinosaurs were here 4,000 years ago why should I listen to her on anything else..

  • i would love to see her make an ass of herself. Her biggest supporters said anyone who doesnt like her is "gay"

  • @videosfromderelix

    lol, what? i do hope you aren't serious.

    i mean, right?

  • @heyjunky Yes i am serious. Her biggest supporters are dumb rednecks who don't understand anything about politics.

  • What the hell do the Republicans think they are doing?!? Do they even care about getting votes? Anyone who thinks they can get elected this way are LAS IDIOTAS. All this proves is that the Republicans are in bed with the corps. Sad day for politics, sadder day for America.

  • its not obstruction for these brave people to show how angry americans are about the government trying to take over our very lives, we know all there is about this holocaust bill and theres nothing they can say to trick us into accepting this. we will win for america and stop this health care takeover, the republicans will take back congress in 2010, and sarah palin will win the presidency in 2012 and then america can get back on track for god and freedom

  • Sarah Palin won't win in 2012 because people now know that she is in fact a pretty face with big tits and no brains.

    The sad thing is that she's too stupid to realize that she was nothing more than a publicity stunt in 2008.

  • @Hammerhead547

    For her to even be mentioned as a candidate in 2012 is a joke by itself.

  • Mr. Speaker I object to tehant1liberals statements. I win!

  • and your insane if you thin palin will win

  • The insane people don't even realize that Palin isn't even in office anymore. Shhhhh don't tell them.

    YAY! GO PALIN 2012!!!!!

    fuckin idiots.

    :P

  • Comment removed

  • @tehant1liberal

    I will pray for you. I'm not sure to whom I will be praying, but I'll do it anyway.

  • I want Sarah Palin to run in 2012 because that guarantees a loss for the republicans.

  • @tehant1liberal what "holocaust" bill are you referring too? oh i see, it's another one of those claims you pulled out of Glenn Becks ass.

    Notice how he doesn't talk about that stuff much anymore, haha your little "prophet" just got tamed.

  • as if we don't already pay MORE just for being a woman already! thousands of dollars over a lifetime of pads, tampons, the pill, goddamn advil for cramps. i will never have kids or get pregnant, but it already costs more just to be a woman. if men had a period, you know they'd have a government program that allows for 1 paid week off per month and free tampons/pads to all. damn pms.

  • Don't forget how much more we pay for underwear, dry cleaning, hair styling, clothing... Give me a break, where three different suits all year long and change your shirt and tie once in a while? Not ever going to happen!

  • @ibwilliamsi Yeah because guys never have to buy clothes or shampoo. Fucking idiots.

  • @july7nyc Your so full of shit you don't even realize it.

    A period may be unpleasant but there are plenty of men who have experience much worse things. BTW you wanna talk about sexism? Why is it socially acceptable for a woman to be a stay at home wife but if a guy doesn't have a real job, he's a bum. Yes i have done the "housewife chores" and no they are not as hard as a real job. I would kill for that "job" if it was one.

  • @videosfromderelix wtf does your comment have to do with mine? i don't give a flying fuck if men stay home. that has nothing to do with what i wrote, asshat. and please, explain to me what you mean by men experiencing much worse things than a woman having her period? on a MONTHLY basis. what do men experience on a monthly basis that is so much worse than a woman bleeding out of her vagina?! you are a fucking tool. go kill yourself, please.

  • @july7nyc "go kill yourself?"

    Why kind of pathetic tool says that to someone they don't even know?

    And yeah you got me there, most women get it on a monthly basis.

    On that note, having a hemorrhoid is arguably more painful and embarrassing than a period.

    Getting hit by a bus is more painful.

    I could go on all day, you act like your such a fucking victim and deserve special treatment because you bleed every month. I had to continue working when i was gushing blood out of my ass you whiner.

  • @videosfromderelix If anyone is getting a hemorrhoid ever 28 days for 40 years, they're doing something stupid and deserve it.

  • @ibwilliamsi It was an example. Men don't have "scheduled" discomforts but we have just as much pain in our life. I'm sick of this need for everyone to feel like the victim.

    "Oh If men bleed out their asses, they would want special rights" bullshit,

    "Oh white people don't know what true pain is."

    "Oh black people don't know what its like to be white."

    Just stop the bullshit. If your life sucks that much, you shouldn't be alive.

  • @videosfromderelix Did it occur to you that you can't get laid because

    "You put words into other people's mouths that don't belong there"

    "You hate women nearly as much as you hate yourself"

    "You're gay"

    ?

  • @videosfromderelix Gross! That sounds painful!

  • @july7nyc That was hot.

  • Is it an abortion when a pregnant woman in Iraq or Afghanistan is vaporised by a drone controlled by a Republican sitting in a base in Texas?

  • Touche...great point

  • You people don't understand, "Right to Life" only applies to the fetus. Once you are born, you are on your own. Especially if you are poor. The GOP loves the fetus, but hates the child.

  • I have pre-existing condition....its called being a woman. Damn my mother and father for having sex and making me. Damn me for me having tits and a virgina. Are you happy now health care?

  • This is mess up....I can't believe that would just keep doing that. What happen human rights?

  • You wont see this on Faux News.

  • its funny... why can't people see that access to health care is a human right....

  • Because they have been sipping the hate flavored kool-aid since Ronald Reagan was President.

  • They be on that hatorade.

  • GOP is destroying itself because most americans see the difference between logic and stupid

  • Congrats GOP you keep dying every day more and more it is like you keep digging yourselves into a bigger pile of shit of your comrades. GOP your all going to hell and no matter how many times and how much time you spend in church your all gunna get ass raped by the devil in hell

  • grow up america and join the civilized world with our 'SOCIALIZED' universal healthcare

    bet that thought scares the shit out the GOP

  • That goes to show how the GOP really feels about woman.

  • Congratulation GOP!...

    You did it again!

  • yeah, and who voted for a guy named DICK ARMY, isn't that the new phrase for "republican party", "Army of Dicks"

  • This debate wouldn't even happen if we had SIGNED THAT BAN ON DISCRIMINATION AGAINST WOMEN AT THE U.N.!!!!!

    only us iran, some of africa and i think one country in south america didn't sign.

  • I proudly second that.

  • The GOP's biggest enemy right now is democracy. Because when democracy prevails, it almost always stifles their agenda...

  • What a bunch of manchildren

  • Having a gun should be a pre-existing condition--any gun owners can't get insurance because they might shoot themselves in the foot. Also, their families shouldn't be covered because if little Tiffany finds Daddy's gun and shoots him we shouldn't all have to pay for that.

  • Let me ask you, do you believe in global warming? If you do then what do you think is going to happen when the coastal cities flood. I'll tell you, Government collapse and mass panic. Hope you can protect yourself. Thats just one example.

  • Let me ask you, are you always this obtuse or is today a special day for you? Did you watch the video or just make a pointless comment on my (satirical) comment?

  • In the context of the video (which apparently you didn't watch) various Republicans are making idiotic claims that preexisting conditions should include being a woman, smoking, eating too much--in that spirit owning a gun, driving a car, etc... could all be pre-existing conditions--all of them are as crazy and stupid as those examples.

  • How the fuck do you object to what someone is saying before they've had a chance to say it? Mr. Speaker I object to the R-Tards masquerading as govt. officials.

  • why were their women calling objection as well?!?!

  • you're a jerk! I know, you're a jerk! I know, you're a jerk! I know you're a jerk...

  • I object to Republican idiocy, Mr. Speaker. I object.

  • Why should women not pay more? If you are a man and have high blood pressure you have to pay moreif you are a man and you have a bad back you have to pay more. Shit is not free you have to pay for things when are libs going to understand that.

  • One more reason we should have a single payer system where everyone is treated equally. When will you right wingers understand that it's not cool to punish someone for being born with an extra X chromosome. When will you start feeling some solidarity with and compassion for your fellow citizens and agree to spread some of the burden of the genetic lottery?

  • "I object, I object, I object. Mr.Speaker I object", Jesus H. Christ. I would almost literally blow my bladder laughing so hard if the so called "speaker", would yell out "SHUT THE FUUUCK UP, YOU FUCKING MORONS"!!! OBJECT TO THAT FUCKERS:".

  • Michael Sure is a pretty smart and knowledgeable guy. Probably why he has such a big head.

  • My sister has lways had insurance & is very healthy and responisble but now has to be on bed rest for the last month of her pregnancy. i was amazed that they would no longer cover her bcuz her pregnancy was a pre-existing condition! I couldn't believe that even counted its not like she was pregnant & then got insurance. I just dont understand how being born woman & being the gender in the marriage that actually bears children suddenly amkes you the irresponsible one.

  • Did they cover her for the beginning of her pregnancy but just not the part when she was bed ridden? I am just curious, but either way that is really crazy.

  • death is death especially since something unborn will not know what happened

  • i object

  • I saw this at a garage's waiting room while waiting for my car being worked on.

    Me and the dude running the front desk were both appalled that these are the people running our country. I mean, we're normal dudes who naively thought these people were professionals. THEY SOUNDED LIKE FUCKING CHILDREN.

    MITH'TER SPEEKER LOOK AT ME, STOP LETTING HER TALK, STOP IT! HELLO! HEY MITH'TER! HEY MITH'TER! I DUN LIKE IT MITH'TER!

  • GOP= Greedy Old Pigs

    Few organizations are more unamerican or unpatriotic

  • 17.8% of people in Georgia are uninsured. Single payer now.

  • There's a reason why the Republican party is called "The Party of No".

  • Every time those women are essentially told to shut up, by extension, every American that voted for those people are told to shut up too.

  • The thing is, you're going to pay for it anyway. The lung cancer victim will go to the er or stiff doctors and make our costs go up. You don't actually have to do a mandate, you can have a penalty added to the premium if they wait until they get sick to buy insurance, like what they do with Medicare. That's an option anyway.

  • It's almost funny how extreme the GOP has become...

    Their loss.

  • Oh my gosh! do politicians really do that in US? if i was in charge of that room id be handing out fines to people for obstructing in that way or have them removed.

  • I watched it live on C-SPAN, the whole time I was thinking...cut these assholes mics off !!!

    This is how it should have went down - watch?v=k8ltBLngqHM

    I OBJECT would have come out of Michele Bachmann's mouth three times, and then this would happen -

    watch?v=ht9WEpdi5JY

  • I would love to agree with you on that! However, what kind of precedent would that set for our actions in the streets.

    Any way, Bachman as a true conservative, should be silently in the kitchen and perpetually pregnant.

    God my wife would be pissed if she saw this!

  • When Sarah Palin inevitably becomes POTUS in 2013, she will completely shake the GOP up and EXPOSE all the chauvinist PIGS' PUSSIES for the WHOLE WORLD TO SEE and initiate the female SUPREMACY MOVEMENT in government as Palin DRIVES ALL MEN OUT OF GOVERNMENT and leadership/management in the private sector! Palin will enslave the male sex and have every MALE PUSSY photographed publicly and placed on national ID cards!

  • everybody sounds crazy, you don't buy insurance because you can't afford it. you know what would be better than a public option? pay Americans a livable wage, but that's just paying somebody well for not going to college, right? well, pay college grads well then, they don't do that either. pay me what i worth, stop robbing me at tax time, stop overcharging me for everything i buy, especially medicine, stop devaluing my money, and you can keep your dumb public option.

  • Oh the joys of being a woman!

  • this is called the "Feminization of Poverty.

  • wtf this is what they do in politics?

    this shit is annoying I can't finish this

  • It reminds me of that scene with Dr. Evil: "Before you even say it...zip it"

  • Mini-me wants some chocolates?

  • God, that was more childish than the U.N.

  • Republicans dont want people dying on the streets either, however we shouldnt titty feed every body who makes one stupid mistake after another, theres a consequence to everything in life....dont go to school, have fun as a kid, but get a shit/no job as an adult, drink and smoke your whole life cause it feels good, then get sick.

    as for women yea there should be some compensation for them to make it more equal. but then i want my car insurance to go down since women get theirs cheaper.

  • Sharpshooterjoe,

    So what would you like to do? Have a panel decide if you've led a good enough life to be insured?

  • my first paragraph has nothing to do with insurance, im just trying to say my point of view as a conservative, since Cenk (sp?) put out his opinion of the difference between R v D.

  • Comment removed

  • @Sharp

    So, since you guys don't want people dying in the street, what then is your plan to help correct our current system? All we hear is how you guys oppose "titty feeding" while never in the next sentence do you offer any alternatives that would help people with basic needs.

  • around every corner in life there is somone willing to give a hand, but life is not this perfect place filled with rainbows and butterflys, you can not help someone who does not want to recieve it, and you should not help someone who wants to abuse it.

  • @Sharp

    But there are many people who need help who are not "abusing" anything. There are many people who need help who have tried to do things the old way and found themselves unable to make it despite their best efforts. Not everyone is a moocher or lazy bum. To dismiss all people who want the public option as that is just stupid.

  • bee

    agreed, but there are tons of places and groups willing to help any one with almost any problem,

    my concern is for the people who after years of unemployment benifits, still dont get a job, then in those cases the gov should step out and give them a job, if they dont want that job they should no get money or get a real job.

    for public option... cont

  • the curent healthcare system is such a hell hole that public option is not going to make things better, we should go back to the basics of.. Dr provides a service and we (the patient) pays for it, only using insurance for huge life altering problems. it use to be that if billy broke a leg, you would go and pay 20 bucks to get it fixed. now adays theres so much fighting between insurance companies, dr, and patients that no 1 is benifiting from it all, and the gov is no better then the comps

  • Let the people too lazy to find a job work for our government? Oh wait that's how it is now LOL.

    I think people on unemployment makes sense, if they can prove they are diligently searching for a new job. When you're jobless, you still have a duty: To find a job. Finding a job takes up as much of your time sometimes as actually working. Proving you're not wasting your time should be rewarded with unemployment benefits. Failure to do so means no more benefits.

    Same with welfare & food stamps

  • ...no one gets paid unemployment for "years" dude...

  • they say they dont want people dying in the streets, but we can only go by what they do, they want people dying in the streets, they rather pay for a war and never once bitch about how the wars are crusing our economy

  • I love that name, Dick Armey. Makes me chuckle

  • Comment removed

  • "We're an army of dicks,

    with a militant stance,

    let's get the government out of our lives

    and into our pants!"

  • how childish

  • It's not the best we can do. We could have put in a strong robust public option that any American can opt in to. Instead, we have a weak public option which no American can opt into.

  • Hmm so since I am a gay woman does tha mean I should get a lower cost to my premiums since I have no risk of pregnancy (outside a thought our concious choice to get invetro or other method)?

  • Admit it you would not have to have IVF, you could take a long one between ya legs grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :)

  • well no, see I am what they call a "gold star" lesbian, which means I have never had any sexual relations of any kind with anyone who sees themself as "male" (be it biological or gender-wise). If I was to ever have a child biologically it would have to be through IVF or a turkey bastor and a cup. But I would think IVF would be better because the sperm could be cleaned (hence not have any STD's in the semen carrying it). No, dick is for dudes, not dykes (in my world).

  • @RavenBlaze

    haha.. are u very very sure?

    You would never fall for a gentle, cute looking guy 1 day?:)

  • would you?

  • @RavenBlaze

    Thats a cool reply:)

    Actually, by "gentle, cute-looking guy", I was referring to myself XD

  • Nah man, just as you are probably not attracted to men, because it doesn't feel right, ur brain is not wired for it, I have the same feelings. Beyond that my fiance (my future wife) is the caring, respectful, kind hearted, intellegent, listening and well HOT partner I have dreamed of. Just as no man could be that for u (I assume), no man could be that for me.

  • Probably, you have a point:)

    Glad to hear about the wedding though, congratulations:D

    So far, I didn't really have an attraction towards other guys unless they really look and dress like a girl, lol. I think I'm just gynophilic like the way you are.

  • I wonder if the guy who had the heart attack at the tea party rallies and was saved by government intervention, still has his "Government keep your hands of my medicare." sign.

  • in a private industry chargin women more makes perfect sense, cos they cost more, thats y private industry is not the way to go

  • Exactly. There is nothing wrong with private industry doing that. They cost more and it is not discrimination. I also think the government should not mandate the company not to charge more either.

    This is fundamentally exactly why Private HC is not the way to go in general. This was realised by the rest of the world 50+ yrs ago. So come on America catch up...
