  • What the fuck was the point of having Schiff on the show if O'Donnell was going to interrupt him and strawman everything he said before Schiff could even finish a fucking sentence?

  • ODummell is so brilliant he doesn't let facts and courtesy derail his truth. He's always pissed off, void of humor, spiteful, sarcastic, wrong, hell he's a typical want-my-ass-kissed liberal. Even an hourlong soapbox isn't enough to let someone with an opposing view (facts) speak because Larry is so certain he's always right. Why's he so indignant? Because he is a little bitch.

  • I must say that this douche bag O'Donnell gives horrible interviews. Did not let the guy answer ONE complete sentence during the entire interview. Almost worst that O'Reilly.

  • O'Donnell is incredibly obnoxious. He simply does not let people talk.

  • i used to think o'donnell had a brain....jeez, he's a twit....

  • I commend Peter Schiff for maintaining his composure in the company of such a buffoon. Is Lawrence O'Donnell the spawn of one of Hitler's henchmen? On character alone, Peter wins this discussion by a factor of ten.

  • Lawrence O'donnell is awful! He doesnt let the guy talk! He's the O'Reilly of MSNBC. Peter made him look like the social he is.

  • and Republicans are the fascists? more like late night msnbc

  • Larry O has guts no doubt about that !

  • @deickos

    Has guts ? HAHA you are retarded.

  • Comment removed

  • Man, what is it with these legacy-media idiots who won't let someone answer the question? I don't know how Peter keeps from just reaching across that table and slapping him upside the head.

  • Colleges are not expensive because of government subsidies, this guy is just your typical republican moron. Countries where the government subsidizes education much more, such as Canada and Australia, have much lower tuition costs.

  • @NewYorkFlavour not really.. you should check out more of his views on college loans. he gets into a deeper explanation as this doucehbag wont let him speak. Yale used to cost 1400 dollars a semester if we were to assume it with todays inflation... when government started backing up every single loan universities started raising prices because no matter they would get paid.

  • @Chslosers So what you're saying is that universities in this country ought to be more regulated so they can't just jack the tuition whenever to make a buck?

  • @NewYorkFlavour No that would be a mockery.. have the government scam you with loans to pay back and then regulate the tuition fees at the same time? No Universities are private to semi-private so they should be able to regulate themselves.Before government backed loans if a student's parents couldn't afford the considerably low costs of tuition, they could get jobs waiting tables and that was enough to pay for school. With no loans, tuition prices are based on what the average family can afford

  • Peter Schiff 2010 CT

    Hannity will have him on finally!!!

    Ron Paul 2012

  • This is the first time I've ever heard O'Donnell--and it will be the last. What a poor excuse for . . . whatever he's supposed to be.

  • OMG O'Donnell is another o'reilly

  • Republicans have no answers, no solutions & are sell outs. They should represent the people not the corporations. They all should be ashamed of themselves...

  • Lawrence O'Donnell needs to learn how to ask a question without answering it himself.

  • @getupjumpy Not if you're certain you're right. Sometimes it's futile to humour the other person.

  • Lawrence O'Donnell is a bad actor turned really bad political know nothing! Is it surprising he won't shut up, people with no ideas, no talent & no brains often resort to this poor social behavior... and it's no surprise he's on NBC!!

  • O'donnell is such a douchebag.

  • Larry O'Donnel is HORRIBLE!! Why would anyone go on a show when the guy refuses to allow a guest to answer a question I wonder who Larry thinks is going to pay for everything he wants to give away. How is it Larry does not know our country is going broke! The time has come for everyone to stop depending on someone else to take care of them. If you are able bodied get to work! We will pay out more for entitlements this year than we will take in - where is the money going to come from?

  • This is reminiscent of nazi germany, where a government paid baffoon would use propaganda and interruptions to cover up the truth. truly a sad time we live in where the truth is so utterly opposed.

  • @Scottnice

    Your a sick piece if work, Nazi Germany? FUCKER

  • "A crisis is a terrible thing to waste" - Rahm Emanuel

  • Bush Derangement Syndrome

  • "Overly opinionated"? Now that is just ridiculous on its face.

    Again.....again, just because I have different "opinions" does not mean I leave out facts. The facts are this: Obama is overspending and his support is dwindling, Dems are losing in 2010, and MSNBC is as much a bastion for idiotic thought as FOX ever could be.

    The statements on Obama are considered "facts", just ask the CBO.

  • Yes I do in fact speak English, and O'Reilly is far more abrasive than O'Donnell. I have no idea what theory you're talking about..? But how does the fact that Fox got talking points from the Bush Admin. mean that MSNBC gets them from Obama?? Very convoluted logic, and you seem like a very angry person.

  • You're right, it is. However, that can not be attributed to me, I was simply using yours and flipping it.

    You cannot say FOX got their talking points from Bush no more than I can say MSN gets them from Obama, so it is moot anyway.

  • No it's not, it came out in Scott McClellan's book that they would give weekly memos to Fox producers, who would then pass it on to O'Reilly, Hannity and crowd. It's not me saying it, it's true There is no evidence that Obama has done the same with MSNBC.

  • Sure, they don't, MSNBC is already in lock-step. No instructions necessary, I suppose.

    Either way, my only point is that whatever you think of FOX, MSNBC is not any better. I am by no means entirely "right" minded, and I routinely hear outlandish crap on MSN, just as I do FOX. I love affair the majority of the media has with Obama does not do us good. It hurts both you and me.

  • typo: *the* love affair

  • I agree, but the media also had a love affair with Bush for 6 years until things started going to hell. They were so on his side during the '04 election it was sickening.

  • @esb84 The media never had a love affair with Bush. From the beginning of time the media was after Bush. You are the only person who has this opinion. By the way, what happened in 2006 that made things go to hell? The massive spending done by Pelosi, GO back and look at the amount of money Pelosi spent since the day she showed up. Love affair is with Obama but the media can no longer look so foolish and Obama brings the country to her knees!

  • 8) I have and do watch FOX, but rarely. It is mostly tuned to CNN or MSNBC (who should thank me for it). Easier to keep up with the sheep this way.

    9) It was a guess. You're a lily-white-liberal, so what?

    10) Opinion, I think you do.

    Conclusion: you need to understand the difference between fact and opinion.

  • 1) Let's not kid ourselves, the implication was there.

    2) That's an opinion. No Comment.

    3) Great, FOX is up 16% in the 18-49 Dem. from last week!

    4) Again, opinion. Sensing a pattern here...

    5) See above.

    6) I guess?

    7) Yes, that is correct!

  • The ACORN comment was suppose to make you laugh, and the "done time" thing was a joke as well. I thought you would have caught that.......guess not.

    So, one more time, what have I said that is factually incorrect?

  • I thought ACORN payed you for this?

  • You really believe that I have never done time in a Pew? I have two Lutheran Pastors in my family. Stop assuming......

    The budget that Obama has proposed is enough for me to dislike him. One cannot endorse Obama and simultaneously call themselves a "Conservative".

    A nation is nothing without its financial solvency.

  • Can you please reiterate what "facts" you are talking about?

    I never said he had to "fix the world", now did I? To start, Obama has has already broken his self-imposed Healthcare deadline, and of course will not reach his self-imposed GITMO deadline. I am asking you, tell me ONE piece, minus the Stimulus package (which I think you could agree would pass with any Dem as Pres.) that he has delivered on?

    I do not want Obama to fail, but I can honestly say that I do not agree with most of his work

  • Jesus would never condone an attitude such as yours.

    Like most liberals you confuse volume with strength. Democrats will take heavy losses in 2010, 2012 is still anyone's guess. Obama has made some lousy decisions so far, his biggest one being not making any at all. Many of the the Independents, the ones who put Obama in office, are already leading. Fortunately for Obama the media is in largely in his favor.

    That is all I have to say. Glad to see you've calm down some. Good job.

  • "already leaVing" - Yes, even I am not perfect. Joke.

    Try and take it easy 102. Blood pressure is a major killer.

  • .............

  • ............

  • You think the phrase "sum of the whole" is deep?

  • Call me an elitist, a Sophist, and "pseduo-intellectual", a FAUX News-viewer, I do not care. In fact, it only furthers my belief that the left is only capable of crafting counter-arguments in ad hominem form.

  • Simply because some of my thoughts align with conservative ideals does not make me a conservative, and certainly does not make me a FOX viewer by default. You are merely giving into your urge to classify me.

    "Style" does count, was that not a great talking point when juxtaposing Obama and Bush during the campaign?

  • I am concerned with the "sum of the whole", and your equation totals in the 'red'.

  • Your attacks on me are repetitive and flaccid, so why keep them up?

    You have been summarily dismissed by me on several occasions, however you are apparently unaware due to your comprehension skills, or lack thereof.

    You're saying that FOX caters to me, yet I clearly stated that I do not watch FOX nearly at all. Are you sensing anything wrong here?

    You sound like an angry minority to me, and I highly doubt I'm wrong in this assumption.

    I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed person

  • The only one laughing is me while I watch you struggle with your first language, otherwise known as English. Shame on me for thinking you could carry on a debate that delves below the surface.

    Plato called it "style", and you don't have any.

    Have a nice day, go back to your shanty.

  • I don't even watch FOX news. You get ahead of yourself way too much, Jesus Christ.  (<<-----who I don't believe in)

  • I'm being dishonest when I said both channels are full of shit?

    You see things as you want to see them, not as they are. Just keep watching MSNBC, FOX certainly does not need help from you in the ratings, they're sky-rocketing while MSN's are falling.

  • FOX is the only conservative cable-news outlet, so it makes perfect sense that the left ostracizes FOX, even the Obama Administration does it!

    In the end it boils down to a bunch of school children pointing fingers at those they believe should take responsibility for their own errors.

    I hope you never speak your views in public, you would be laughed off stage.

  • It's official: You're intellectually bankrupt.

    I NEVER, repeat, NEVER, repeat again, NEVER, said that Fox News is "fair and balanced", this is merely you putting words in my mouth, something I said liberals tend to do when losing an argument (read below)

    I successfully called out your actions before you even took them, do you realize how inept you look in my eyes?

    The IRONY, you fool, IS THAT BOTH ARE THE SAME, yet you see FOX as something worse, which it is not.

  • The classic liberal tactic: put words in your opponents mouth.

    MSNBC caters to the intellectually dishonest and, mainly, stupid.

  • It is so easy to bait you fools.

  • If you had any comprehension skills you would understand that your point against FOX hurts your point about MSNBC. If MSNBC is the equal-and-opposite reaction to FOX than that would make MSN be just as unbalanced and unsubstantiated as you claim FOX.

    You suffer from FOX Derangement Syndrome. You fear dissenting opinions. These are the real problems here, your unwillingness to even "entertain an opposing thought without accepting it" - Aristotle

    FOX puts you wackos into a frenzy

    It is all good

  • You should just stick the "Faux News" tactic, once you open your mouth you just sound like a rambling idiot who only speaks with talking points and generalizations.

    It is all good.

  • Matthews and O'Reilly are never this abrasive, period.

    You resort to the "Faux News" argument? Bwahaha! Quite the mental Giant you are!

    Score one for my side. This conversation is over.

  • Bill O'Reilly isn't abrasive?? Have you ever seen his show, lol. And btw, MSNBC is a lot more accurate than FOX, they had their talking points given to them by the Bush Administration.

  • Do you speak English? I said he is not AS abrasive as O'Donnel.

    MSNBC more accurate? That's entirely your opinion, so how it serves your argument I do not know. If anything, MSNBC is now taking the talking points from the WH, and that is using YOUR theory. Do you follow?

  • prove"

  • It is NOT "difference of opinion" in this case 102LBC. O'Donnell is entirely out of line. He invited on the guest so he could bash him, more or less.

    I watch all networks and can honestly say you will not find such junk on any other network but MSNBC. They're trash, and their ratings proof my point.

    It is all good.

    What exactly is there to disprove on O'Donnell's side? I just hear talking points, and those are worthless to address under such circumstances.

    It is all good.

  • MSNBC is for half-wits and zombies (i.e. most Democrats/liberals).

    Peter Schiff deserves praise for keeping his cool. O'Donnell is merely in need of an old-fashioned ass beating.

    Obama is clearly fumbling. Guess that's why they say "democracy ensures we are governed only as well as we deserve."

    Later.

  • ODonnell was not going to let Schiff try to mislead the listeners with GOP lies. Bravo! Bravo, Lawrence!

  • I like O'Donnell but I actually kind of agree with you guys, he needs to tone it down a little bit and give people a chance to answer. At the same time though he hates liars and spin, once you do that he goes bad!

  • Like you could disprove Schiff if you're life depended on it.

  • O'Donnell is such a fuckin worhtless douche

  • Lawrence O'Donnell= douche bag

    he spoke over and a lot more than peter and cant simply understand that government is a leech on people and the only reason he has a job because of governments tentacles in our lives

  • can't we please just break up back to 50 independent states...the USA is a catastrophe.

  • Funny how O'Donnell gives Schiff 30 seconds to make his case and just cuts him at about 4 seconds.

  • he may not be as moronic as bill o'reilly but he is not that much better. if you want to freaking debunk something or refute something you have to hear what you are refuting first. both sides of th pundit spectrum is just bullshit. npr is the only place i can find reasonable anchors

  • Would O'Donnell allow himself to be bullied like this? Don't think so. And yet he says the GOP is full of hate.

  • All this shows is O'Donnell's total poverty of ideas, his terror of an honest debate with Schiff, & his clinging 2a desperate broken ideology that cannot bare 4Schiff 2even be heard

    Obviously, O'Donnell made a promise 2his partisan masters at MSNBC along the lines of "Yeah, I'll destroy him, don't worry" & did his level best. I guess this is the best he could hope for - a shoutdown

    Pathetic & revealing

  • You guys think Lawerence was bad during this? I saw his fill on on Hardball, I couldn't even hear the other guy, because he would keep talking and talking and not even let the guy speak. I love MSNBC, I hate Fixed News, but it was uncalled for, He and Chris Matthews are what I hate about MSNBC. Ever since they cancelled 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, I stopped watching the 6 pm slot, I don't watch the rachael Maddow show, and Keith Olbermann is the best part of MSNBC, besides Morning Joe.

  • Olbermann is a crackhead

  • O`Donnel is a fucked up retard!

  • oh this is worst labeling ever

  • I watch MSNBC all the time. The only ones that interview like this is this dude an Chris Mathew's. Ed does a lil bit. The best interviewers let people talk. Get their views out. Then maybe dig themselves in a ditch if they don't have their facts straight. Then when they're done, chime in with facts. Or respectfully disagree an maybe ask questions that you think the public might want answered. An if that person is a real shit. through some dirt on the ditch. LOL

  • more like head to ass

  • Good grief. Why does he bother having guests on his program? Another reason not to watch MSNBC.

  • This guy interrupts his guests more than Bill O'Reilly...

  • Comment removed

  • I'm for a single payer system and profiting from in France but this guy is hurting the cause, he is far too aggressive.

  • People, this is MSNBC. They pull shit like this all the time. Why are you so surprised?

  • I hate people whose mothers didn't teach them not to point at others.

  • Notice the big banner kept up throughout the exchange that says "FEAR FACTOR"  They're trying so hard to discredit Peter. I hope he makes it into the Senate so he can shut down all these assholes who want to destroy this country.

  • I will NEVER watch this slimeball's show. I do think it's hilarious how blatant and obvious the elitists are now in their frantic attempts to silence opposition to their pathetic establishment, and that because of this, the public is waking up.

  • The host is really being a douche.. will he let the guest talk at all? Is the host even listening to any of the words that the guest says??

  • Lawrence O'Donnell looked like a horrible bully never allowing Peter Schiff to speak without being interrupted and yelled over. Anyone watching this will see what MSNBC is all about - propaganda for the White House. Really a pathetic display...

  • He is one of the meanest bastards the Liberals have.

  • That guy interviewing Peter is a lawyer good at pigeon holing people. The old have you stopped beating your wife?

    Trouble is it always works and the press uses that method well

    and people do not often see through it.

  • Let me start off by saying I am an INDEPENDENT. I hope everyone else can see what the dem. party is up to. anyone non democratic politician who is gaining support for office is immediately attacked by the liberal media. Look at them gov. senators, potential presidential candidates, etc, are immediatly attacked before they can get any more headway. Thats whats going on here.. thats what they have done since the last election. Its time for people to realize this and get these f*cks out of office

  • this guy Lawrence O'Donnell is a dick. He lies, out and out lies about facts.. Anything to get his agenda in place. anything to con the unknowing into thinking his opponents are daf. Got to love the way he lets the guest answer a question.. and what are we back in jr high school debate.. you mean there is not one thing good in this bill .. not one thing.. what a moron to try to miss direct the listeners and guest. Dodd is partially responsible for the housing crises... fuck this O'Donnell

  • man the tv show host sucks.... he should shut the fuck up and let the man talk. Thats plain rude. He should just do his own talking. Why get Peter Schiff on it?

  • We don't have laissez faire capitalism.We have a mixed economy that is heavily regulated.We don't have a free market in money,interest rates,credit,or finance.These things are largely planned through the Federal Reserve system.The boom bust cycle is caused by artificial bank credit expansion.You can not rteplace real savings with banking procedures that artificaially lower the intewrest rate.Real credit can only come from real savings.The regulator of the banks(the FED)caused the bubble!

  • Lawrence O'Donnell is not a fair interviewer. I bet he yells at his TV at home.

  • email the producer and tell him what you think:

    james {at} edschultzshow {dot} com

    then spread his email address around the internet. (the interviewer's name is Lawrence O'Donnell.)

  • This gay interviewer needs a BIG PENIS in his fukin gob

  • Who is this interviewer? Who hired him?

    Seriously, he and ppl like him are the cause of downfall of this country.

  • LOUD NOISES.

  • what a freaking tool. Was this even considered an interview?

  • Would like to smack O'Donnell so hard that O'Reilly would feel it.

  • sometimes i can't tell the two apart when they yell. my ears hurt.

  • Civ Rts Act 1964 refers to the Civil Rights Act of 1964. I had to whittle my post down so as not to exceed the character limit. That Act prohibited even private concerns from discriminating, & this federal intrusion has been accepted by the Supreme Court.

  • Burt1038, yr 9 men/1 woman q. doesn't work: they'd be part of our society, our national polity, which doesn't accept rape. You have yr preference for what the Constitution shd do & that's fine, but it's not the legally accepted view, ie its meaning as accepted by SCOTUS. Frankly, the Const. operates as SCOTUS says it does. It has accepted massive fed. intrusions on the private sector such as Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps, & the Civ Rts Act 1964, so it'll accept healthcare as a right.

  • O'donnell is fucking dumb ass.

    this was a hit job. Chris Dodd is already editing the video to his favor as I write this.

  • That host is a dick. You put a Republican on MSNBC and take a 5 second clip from it into a democrat campaign ad and your set. Same goes for putting a democrat on Fox. That's probably the only reason MSNBC put him on there.

  • Rights do not exist in nature. There are no natural rights, only liberties, and inevitably these are circumscribed to one or another degree when people come in contact with each other.

  • If citizens, through the government,decide that healthcare is a right, then it is a national right. You can believe in whatever lovely little libertarian notions you want, but that does not invalidate legislation. Rights do no exist in nature. Rights are right because people decide that they're right.

  • So if there are nine men in a room and one woman, and they vote to rape her, it's ok then because they took a vote?

    The whole point of the U.S. Constitution was to get away from the English system, whereby all acts of Parliament were de facto "constitutional" because they came from "the people".

    If you want healthcare as a "right", you'd have to amend the Constitution, because it's not there, buddy.

  • I've already tried man, you're losing your time.

    Brainwashed people remain that way. Too bad for them.

  • I'm amazed that there are actually people so stupid and blinded by ideology that they would actually defend O'donnell. It's hilarious how these types of people claimed to hate Bush, while they avidly support his policies now that Obama is the duce. It just goes to show how small the divide between the liberal-left and the neo-conservative left really is.

  • O'Donnell what a fucken retard... fuck you you! Scared ass mo fucka... let the man talk and debate like a real person!

  • schiff got man handled on this interview he better get more aggressive if he plans to push the wrong buttons....

  • I'm getting so sick of stuffed shirt entitled liberal jerks like this guy O'Donnell. He clearly had an agenda and he makes himself look like a total ass by not letting Peter get his point across. Ever notice that when somebody is wrong or afraid of what you have to say, they just get aggressive and try to talk over you? Liberal Obama apologist fools are going to ruin this country. He's going to destroy this country and yet the majority of people do not even question his motives... frightening!

  • LOL

    That was brutal. Too brutal.

  • who's being interviewed Schiff or El Douche O'Donnell

  • Shove this video down the throats of any oblivious liberal who thinks fox is the only biased network out there.

  • That host was a dick.

  • This is only the beginning. If the media is anything it's consistant with its malicous stupidity. They will run Schiff through the mud for daring to challenge a democrat in an election.

  • wow, the host is a douchebag. Obviously an all out attack on peter, it's not even an interview.

  • What a bullshit "interview". O'Donnell barely let the guy speak. What a dickhead.

  • What a god-damn retard, was he a Bush appointee or something?

    I know the establishment Times and other papers are going bankrupt, I can only hope MSNBC is next.

  • Peter Schiff is in religious thrall to free-market capitalism. In his fantasy world, nothing the government does is good, while everything the market does is good. This belief, however, runs counter to reality. Look outside the U.S. at every single other developed country: they all have some sort of government-funded universal health system. And they work! And the people love it! This is all the evidence you need to refute a free-market fundamentalists like Schiff. The evidence is everywhere.

  • If the government did a decent job maybe he wouldn't have to make such comments. God forbid he goes against the mainstream media and poses his own opinion. The bottom line is he has been right and will continue to be right because he uses sound logic and reason. Government funded health care can work, but likely wont due to greed. Also, He doesnt think everything the market does is good, obviously since he has been stating that the recent market gains do not reprsnt the true ecnmic picture.

  • Oh yes, everything is just peachy...which explains why we're being out performed in the last FIVE YEARS by China....communists are kicking us around in terms of GDP growth, return on investments, their trade surplus is even bigger than our trade deficit. By your logic free market = poverty. Well good sir, bring on the soup and stale bread even IF you were right, which you aren't, I won't trade liberty for success anyway

  • Are you refering to the free-market area of China called... Hongkong? They use a separate economic system and they have a marginal tax rate of 15% and a deregulated economy.

    Just saying.

  • So do you attend the "Love the Chairman Obama" meetings on Friday or Saturday?

  • You're right my friend, but we've got here a bunch of people obsessed with the equation consisting of government=bad.

    It's an old mentality.

    The funny thing is that only in this country do you see such a large amount of anti-government citizen, yet, it must be the country with the worst governments!

    They say no to government intervention, but they go put their nose in other countries' business all the time.

    The government is SUPPOSED, in normal countries to reflect the people.

  • in countries with the worst governments(like mine) you can't protest because you will be thrown to jail.

  • Anybody who bashes Pete is either an idiot or evil, whether republican or liberal. He predicted everything that happened almost two years before it did! And he told everyone how to save their ass!

  • wow! As if he was the only one who predicted it.

    His little friends with their illegal war drove your country into economical disaster, and it's not over!

    Bush started the bailout but hey, it's the liberal's fault.

    And please stop using the fuckin "evil" word, it makes you look retarded and childish.

    Go live in other G20 countries. You'll see how deep in shit you are. Good Luck America! With such a high rate of dumbasses, you're in for a lot of fun!

  • You obviously know nothing about Peter Schiff or basic economics. Peter Schiff is a libertarian not some hack neoconservative, he opposed the war in Iraq. Healthcare costs have exploded ever since the gov't got into the mix, especially w/HMO's. The Mass. plan has been a complete disaster too. Look up Singapore healthcare, it's not a completely free market (it's what I'd prefer, albeit Peter would disagree), but at least it will give you an idea of what a real free market system looks like.

  • This was great! Pete did great, don't get angry that's what they want you to do, they want you to be like another angry republican. Keep your cool like you did and stick to your guns. They are trying to make you mad so they can stand back and say "look, he's another angry republican!" Pete did great! I think he may be able to win!

  • If I ever witnessed a more obnoxious host anywhere, I cannot recall it. I never heard of this O'Donnell before, but if I ever run into him on the street I believe I will beat him with a stick.

  • The profit motive is what is destroying the provision of medical care. The idiotic "free market" model would be a prescription for disaster.

    Only Foxbots, Palinites and other assorted wingnuts believe that the financial and health care industries are poor vctims of the eeeevil government.

    In other words, only morons devoted to punching themselves in the face for the entertainment of the people who fill them with lies.

  • But, Frank, didn't you know that if we take those benevolent corporations out of the health care equation, we'll look just like the Soviet Union?

    I want the freedom to die for lack of health care so that health insurance CEOs can buy themselves another senator or representative. It's the 'Murkan way!

    Freedumb! Freedumb! USA! USA! USA!

  • Let me ask you 2 questions.

    In a competitive market, any market, Do you think the prices for those items go up or down?

    And when competition is scarce in a particular market, Do you think Prices go up or down in that market?

  • Comment removed

  • lawrence o donnell is a dick tho

  • it wasnt supposed to be an interview, it was SUPPOSED to be a debate, watch the morning joe from the same day.

  • You don't know how to debate. Debates: you speak, then the other side speaks. You do not, interrupt & cut someone off, or finish his sentences. Go to a real debate, they hold them in college. Take a class.

  • Lawrence O'Hannity. That was embarrassing. I like how he basically summed up that Peter was against Rep. and Dems. , using nice sweeping generalizations. "You don't agree with one sentence." The part about elite private school tuition was great too. Lawrence calls himself a Eruopean Socialist. How about National Socialist? aka. Nazi. Let the guy at least state his position. He was painful and pathetic to watch.

  • Ok, I'm a burning liberal. I fucking glow. This guy is an asshole. What kind of interviewer competes with their guest and tries to trample them.

    I don't like Republicans in general, but I WANT to hear Schiff's opinion. Furthermore, I don't want to watch people talking on top of each other. I'd be watching FOX if I did.

  • We all know what Schiff's opinion is. O'Donnell wasn't going to let him spew his nonsense without putting him on the spot. The last thing this country needs is more neo-liberal (not liberal) deregulation.

    I, too, am a red-hot liberal & I think it's about time that these assholes get exposed in the media, instead of the usually cock sucking we normally get. Notice the sputtering when O'Donnell brings up taxing health care benefits.

    Pwnage was never so beautiful.

  • Sure expose people for what they are if you need to, but don't deliver the message screaming like an asshole. Jon Stewart got Cramer pretty well without raising his voice.

  • If anybody wanted to know how GW Bush? would look BLACK, now we know !!!!

    Anytime when Barry, I mean Barack Obama speaks, my ears bleed...that man is

    so fake and it's disgusting that people (the sheeple) worship this fool...they'll regret it soon? enough.

    Judging by his actions thus far,? Obamas only loyalties appear to be towards an International banking cabal, and the UN.

  • He's a reptoid just like Bush, didn't you know? W's loyalty and respect for the U.N. is common knowledge.

  • are you retarded. Not letting him spew his garbage? If he had any balls he would have let him talk and then given a true rebuttal. Not allowing him to speak only shows the fear of his message.

  • Sometimes the "other side" has no legitimate argument. Should we allow those who believe the earth is flat equal time? I think not. Schiff was simply repeating the same crap we've been hearing for nearly 40 years. The crap which has been discredited & has put us where we are. There is no fear of his message, because there is no message; just more of the same supply-side bs, that makes the top 1% obscenely rich, while making the rest of us little more than indentured servants.

  • What arrogance. The other side has no legitimate argument? Some people just don't want to listen. Same crap last 40 yrs? Last 10 its been an artificialy inflated market and are deficit supports that, and that is what got us hear, not production. If production got us to this point, what have we produced? Your arguments have no substance and just use vague statements. I don't expect you to understand because you don't listen, just like this talk show host.

  • If you only bring up the last 10 years, you've not been paying attention or you are too young to know. Might I suggest you read up on Milton Friedman before you continue. My arguments appear vague because you are not in the know, plain & simple. I don't feel superior because of this. In fact, it saddens me to see someone like you, who is articulate & interested, fall for the same flat-earth shit. I said nothing of production, & for what it's worth we've not produced much in the past 20 years.

  • I will read your recommendation to understand your perspective, but that is not the point of my argument. What upsets me is people not communicating properly. How are people supposed to learn from each other if they shut out opinions. The bottom line is there is no right answer as long as humanity is corrupt. Yes there is corporate corruption and a legislature can put in safe guards to protect the consumer, but I trust the government even less and would rather allow competition/litigation.

  • The government is not necessarily some amorphous, malevolent entity out to suck us dry. We are the government, or at least could be if more of us were interested in what our representatives are doing than, say, who will get nominated this week on American Idol. That's the price of complacency & the demonization of the the intellectual. Humanity will always be corrupt. It's part of our nature, but so are magnanimity & compassion. The founding fathers chose the latter in spite of personal faults.

  • How can O'Donnell can himself a journalist? He is just a shill for the Democratic party. He is appears to have absolutely no insight into how foolish an image he projects. He argues like a freshman debater; posing one logical fallacy after another. For a minute there I thought he was going to lapse into an ad hominem attack. Ten points for Peter for maintaining his composure with this jack ass.

  • Owned! :)

  • The host is just stupid and a loud mouth.  Shut-up. He just would not llisten at all got facts wrong. But hey, he has a job.

  • Schiff's just another let-the-market-decide-everythi­ng guy. In his ideal society almost all the wealth is in the hands of a few percent while the rest live in mindless squalor from generation to generation. Oddly, most of his fans are dirt-poor, undereducated conservative simpletons who have fantasies that one day they're going to be John Galt & Dagny Taggart -- but all they're ever going to be is dumb, dirt-poor Billy Bob & Wanda Sue Stump.

  • Why comment when you have no idea what you are talking about? Confusing!
