  • RON PAUL 2012

  • Oh come on, of course more regulations are denied when there are many MANY more proposed by the Obama big government machine

  • Youg Turks and Reality of Nothing In Common... It's like a bunch of kids got together to scream bullshit

  • Bush was the biggest spender in American history, so of course Obama is going to look great in comparison. This doesn't mean Obama has good tax and fiscal policies.

  • @SibzelChebst You are really out of touch, huh? Would you like me to send you the actual numbers including the cost of the wars? Obama outspent Bush by over 4 x's or so. If he's left to continue in office, he will continue spending which means our economy will have no choice but to collapse. It almost appears as though he's doing it on purpose.

  • @WingThaiJ you dont seem to understand how the economy works, so dont pretend to have intelligence.

  • @100Lavender ROFL! I have access to people who employee people world wide and in the U.S. and I also realize where to get real economic info like fee dot org...Now stop pretending you know anything at all... Like Obama, people need to listen to the real experts and not assume their experience as a local lawyer or those who are a pencil pusher college economist have any clue what occurs in the real world.

  • im a dem...but ron paul 2012

  • I'm a historian and I feel embarrassed by the BS Newt produces while hiding behind the authority of historical science. And yes, I know he technically is a historian, but a genuine researcher of the past looks for the truth. Not for politically expedient myths.

    He may have studied history, he may have earned his MA and his PhD, but he's not what a historian should be, a scientist honestly searching for facts about the past. He's a tale-spinning hypocrite who lies about his past and our future.

  • Newt is rely smart(lol..) in his own way. Before you nail me let me explain. He is the guy who knows exactly what ppl who votes on GOP primaries want to hear. Now even though he most likely doesn't believe all the garbage hes speaking he's doing that just and only to gain more support and win the nomination. I think he's thinking something like i don't care a f*ck what i lie, these idiots newer check facts nor seek the truth. That's the winning strategy on GOP field to WIN

  • If you replace the word 'Grinch' with 'Gingrich' in the song "You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch" from the cartoon, all the lyrics are bang-on.

  • @1955RodHot Young Turks r not scholars For all those who doubt Gingrich's word & don't realize the context of what he says:Palestians went from being Jordanian, Syrian,etc Arabs to Palestinian over-night w/a goal to unify Arabs against Israel. Even Zahir Muhsin PLO Exec/Military leader admitted this.Even.Arab Scholars realize this Want the Truth?.GOOGLE THIS: Myths, Hypotheses and Facts Concerning the Origin of Peoples The True Identity of the So-called PalestiniansSorry, REALITY is not RACISM

  • Newt - A Highly Irritating Microbe commonly found around the Anus. Also known as Gingrich. 

  • @RBLA818 Yes Truth can be irritating to those allergic to it.Doubt Gingrich's word? U don't realize the context of what he says:Palestians went from being Jordanian, Syrian,etc Arabs to Palestinian over-night w/a goal to unifyArabs against Israel.Even Zahir Muhsin PLO Exec/Military leader admitted this. Even. Arab Scholars realize this Want the Truth?.GOOGLE THIS:Myths, Hypotheses &Facts Concerning the Origin of Peoples The True Identity of the So-called PalestiniansSorry, REALITY is not RACISM

  • @WingThaiJ Easy Sonny, Easy!

  • OK I'm only 17 and dont really understand the system, but how are republicans able to lie and get away with it? To me it seems like if a democrat lied they would get their shit handed to them, why doesn't it work the other way? How are they allowed to get away with it?

  • @KneeOJustice Almost all media is owned by large corporations and controlled by the extremely rich. They like Republicans, so they almost never call them on their lies and crimes.

  • The keystone pipeline would be the nail in the coffin for climate change. I guess I'll have to move seeing that I live in south florida, and in a decade or so it will be underwater.

  • @TheYoungTurks did he really have his arm twisted?

    I find it more likely that his arm sleeves were opened and wads of bills stuffed into them to agree with republicans and to pretend to fight

  • Obama has raised our taxes 14 times!

  • Facts and Republicans? Nah.

  • All of this would be so very easy to stop. If the American people were to introduce a single law that said when a politician makes an official statement on policy or situation they are required to state facts then people will be able to have another tool in the way of saying to them, are you willing to make an official statement of fact on that matter. I know it will be skewed but it gives the ordinary citizen the right to be able to challenge those facts when they are abused.

  • higher taxes on the 1%. legalize marijuana. less gun control. gay marriage legalized everywhere. i will do that if i was president

  • The coordinators of these debates should have a RED BUTTON, which they press *every time there is a factual problem* --- it'd make a LOUD SOUND, the current speaker would have to STOP SPEAKING, a coordinator would explain what is NOT ACCURATE, and a counter for inaccurate statements would go up for that speaker.

  • The misinformation that the media promote will guide us to a corporative totalitarian regime.

  • He's so arrogant, he acts like he's already got the nomination.

  • How come do the Rebublicans get away with all this lying?

    I mean sure this sounds hard but the people that watch fox will actyally think they the rebublicans are for them and that they are speaking true.

    I mean my god so cursing is not really allowed on tv (good thing ofc) but destroying a country and lying to millions of Americans is?

  • He's a fucking lying Bastard !

  • The echo's gone!

  • The biggest surprise here is that Bachmann was accurate.

  • Bachmann right for the 1st time?!

    Today in history

  • There goes Newt being an evil, lying bastard again. That will be his legacy as a supposed "historian"... The historian who lied a bunch.

  • @harrysadlermusic and the big crater that was once Palestinia...

  • Comment removed

  • I didn't understand why everyone was so passionate about voting for Ron Paul. Now that I have watched the debate, I see why. He is the only republican with a brain. I hope to God none of these other republicans are front-runners for presidency. And don't even get me started on those Tea Baggers

  • "Lower taxes and less regulation" ???? Dude, we've BEEN trying that! Lower taxes on the rich puts us in economy instability and less regulation makes it easier for large banks to ruin our economy! Why do the republicans want that???

  • Newt Gingerich knows history just as much as Michelle Bachmann knows CO2.

  • @underbjorn If you can't spell his name right, then that imediately disqualifies you from insulting him.

    He has a PhD from Tulane. I would respect that. Look at what he has said about history and you will see.

  • ... fuck Obama, but Gingrich and Romney scare the shit out of me ... the lesser of two evils garbage shouldn't be our choice, but we're fucked into that choice

  • Is it so much to ask people in the studio to shut up, or at least keep it down while they are filming? Bunch of people talking and laughing loudly in the background starting from 3:21 is really distracting. Even Cenk lost his train of thoughts for a split second there. Come on people it's the big leagues now. This is not a technical issue. This kind of thing did not happen even way back Cenk, Ben and Jill were hosting the show from that big desk on his apartment. This is broadcasting 101...

  • I find it highly amusing that the uneducated, hatemongering, corrupt U.S-Republican circus monkeys are using Marxist terminology but like with everything else, they turn it upside down.

    .

    The point of class warfare is for the opppressed majority (That's not the corporate mafia) to rise against the oppressors (Now see, this IS the corporate mafia).

    .

    I have never seen a political group been so keen on using Marxist terminology wholeheartedly as the U.S-Republican party.

  • Think Progress has a article today on their site that says within the Health Care bill, a tax increase on dividends and incomes over $250K kicks in Jan 2013. It's a little over 3% increase. So all this bullshit that these politicians are making issues are already settled when the Dems had the house, senate and presidency.

  • He's a clown.

  • Listening to Newt illustrates the spurious field of economics, the criminal vocation of party politics, and the divide and conquer effect of ideology. Moreover, he makes it very clear that the “information age” might more accurately be called the disinformation or misinformation age.

  • Maybe the repubs forget that regulation found lead in the paint from toys their children were playing with, found mad cow in meat, e coli in spinach, listeria in hotdogs......and so on and so on. I'm sure even their precious caviar would slide in quality without proper regulation.

  • LOL Cenk is funny! @ 3:49

  • Keep the Repubicans out if they are going to act this way..

  • There should be fact checkers at each debate to call out anyone who lies. This is much needed...

  • Anyone who gives credibility to anything Newt Gingrich says should be committed to a mental institution .

  • @nardo1224 Waste of taxpayer money. They should just be put to sleep.

  • @oprichniki12 Actually that was my first choice but knowing how morbid I can be I figured that would be too much for the mentality of the young Turk audience..

  • "Bush's regime"

    LOOL... i love Cenk.

  • So because Obama didn't accept as many added EPA regulations as Bush did... he didn't add more regulations than Bush?

    Correct me if I'm wrong on that logic ^^ (I'm seriously not sure if that's what Cenk is saying)

  • When a white guy screws up, you blame the black guy. The black guy who lowers your taxes!

  • @want2bealone OBAMA A HALF BREED MOM KANASAS WHITE SO HE IS RIGHT EITHER WAY WHITE OR BLACK ALL USELESS

  • Comment removed

  • Man, finally new studio looks awesome! GG guys!

  • Ron Paul 2012

  • Comment removed

  • The taxes under Obama are constantly rising, because the SPENDING IS RISING.

    The only thing you need to know about taxes is this - is the SPENDING rising or falling?

    If spending is RISING then taxes are RISING. There is no way around it.

  • Even just the one Obama care is a tax HIKE and regulations hike. Never mind all the other stuff that's happening, like SOPA or killing US citizens without a trial by president's order.

  • They should be allowed to bring footage to these debates so they can set them up with something they know they'll lie about and then hit a buzzer and play the damning clip from an interview.

  • Who's gonna listen to Gingrich?, he's named after a little "Newt" that's poisonous ha ha.

  • Ron Paul named his own son after Ayn Rand. Why the hell are so many Paul supporters watching TYT?

  • "Any ad which quotes what I said on Sunday is a falsehood, because I have said publicly those words were inaccurate and unfortunate"

  • Some1 needs to get Obama to the TYT HQ, can we at least get an Interview between Cenk and Obama or the repub candidates, I reckon that would be The Interview of the Century

  • ron paul is a saint standing nxt to devils, why isit so hard for people to se the saint

    ignorance runs america sadly......

  • @MALIRIPPA No, he is more like a genuinely insane man in amongst a lair full of Bond villains.

  • What a vile pig Newt is. Why is he still around? I'll tell ya why--because of the redneck, inbred fucks down South. This has GOT to stop. These retarded hayseed pig fuckers have been stifling progress for over a fuckin' century. Goddamned worthless deformed mutant mountain men. We need to nuke the South and get rid of that contaminated gene pool--NOW!

  • So, Democrats admit that 99% of politicians are corrupt....yet still want more regulation...from these same corrupt politicians? Or is there some kind of magical wand y'all want to create and wave it over capitol hill to make them all ethical and morally responsible? The people who will write these "regulations" are going to be Wall St. banks. Why not just take power away from the government, that why there will be less incentive to lobby? Why not have the government out of economics period?

  • @theUSER101 ... because pretty much all the biggest corporations have been allowed to become corrupt. Proper regulation (like that in Australia, where no banks have become insolvent) would be the key.

  • In the GOP race. The person who can spout the most BS the most convincively and not have anything damaging come out about them WINS!. Truth doesn't matter.

  • Pssst. Newt. They can record you saying stuff and bring it up at any time.

  • ron paul.

  • @The51stAgent Oh no, he believes in Jesus and is pro-life....and of course those are my primary concerns despite the economic crisis and corrupt politicians destroying the middle class....I'm actually a dumb ass liberal sooooo I guess that explains it.

  • Gingrich is a hypocrite and a liar.

  • I can't believe Americans actually vote for any member of a party that could endorse clowns like this, you're a laying stock to anyone moderately informed on your politics.

  • Politics aside...

    Gingrich getting this close to the nomination, just shows how many fucking retards have a vote

    I can't stand even looking at fat faced fucking prick

  • @Pleblian ... and every one of the other candidates.

  • cap and tradw is the Elites way uf guilting stupiid people that they need to pay a tax to the ricjh to save the world ! Fucking morons!`

  • @MrHr1207 Carbon tax, not cap and trade. Cap and trade simply puts more and more money into the hands of speculators, who are the VERY PEOPLE WHO DELIBERATELY CRASHED THE ECONOMY. A carbon tax can be used to pay down debt or given straight back to the consumers or used to build and repair infrastructure, employing millions.

  • Here is where I stand on SS! I payed into it! Where's my MFSS? You owe me that much with interest ! Where is the Beef Bitch? You Owe me and I want my money! Instead you pay so called drug or alchohol related addictions money to sit at home and do nothing! FUCK REALLY?

  • Wow Again I will vote this vid up and cenk is right! Newt is a shitbag Elitest!

  • 0:14 - 0:17 A new memo from Frank Luntz! Instead of saying "democracy", as clearly 1% of the people owning the people making the decisions for the 100% is hypocritical, refer to "class warfare" to collect the underdog points.

  • @fingrid "Class warfare"?... It has been the wealthy waging war on everybody else for the last 40 years. We should steal that phrase and use it against them.THAT'S how you deal with that Orwellian prick Luntz, you take their favorite phrases and you judoflip them and make them your own.

  • @dangerouslytalented

    Last 40 years? Try last 2000 years.

  • @SSTTEEAALLTTHH Last 2000 years? Try the last 10 000 years when we entered the agriculture age.

  • @LiBlub1

    True. I pity the primitive humans that went along with it when the first guy build a fence and said: "These resources are now mine.".

  • @SSTTEEAALLTTHH Rousseau, wasn't it?^^

  • @dangerouslytalented It's only class warfare when we fight back.

  • American voters are by far the most retarded people on the planet.

    Bush - WORST PRESIDENT EVAR! NEED A DEMOCRAT!

    Obama - WORST PRESIDENT EVAR! NEED A REPUBLICAN!

    Guess what you retarded Americans, PRESIDENTS HAVE VERY LITTLE POWER.

    ALL A PRESIDENT CAN DO IS PARDON, GIVE ORDERS TO THE MILITARY, AND PUT HIS SIGNATURE ON SHIT. THAT IS ALL.

    A PRESIDENT CAN'T FIX SHIT, NOR WOULD THEY EVEN IF THEY HAD THE ABILITY TO.

    THE ESTABLISHMENT IS LAUGHING AT YOU FUCKING RETARDS.

    YOU SHOULD FEEL BAD.

  • @igotaidsinnarnia In this day and age Presidents have a lot more power than the constitution gives them - some in an unconstitutional sense, and some in just a political leadership sense.

  • @igotaidsinnarnia The problem is, the WRONG president will make things far WORSE.With the current American system, it is an uphill battle to slow down the decay.

  • Holy shit, Bachmann was right for once.

  • Newt in one way is very consistent. He will lie, cheat, take money where he can and will always flip flop whenever it is necessary for his career. Plus the fact that his wife has to make sure he always has a secretary that is not interesting, but other than that he is a changed man, yeah, right. Ron Paul for President, for change and an honest man.

  • @4390100 hahahaha

  • These republican debates are fucking hard to watch. Each and every one of them is worse than the next, in their own special way.

  • Ok well Obama sucks worst president ever.

  • obama against newt, obama wins.....obama against ron paul......paul wins! obama knows that!

  • @louloub5 republicans however seem to be completely unaware of this.

  • no energy plan means no oil energy plan. which is not even true on those grounds, either. Obama is for green energy and mostly for oil. but the gop is against green and 100% for oil only.

  • Newt loves it in the poop.

  • Newt is a toad.

  • Cap and Trade is a fraud! I mean Republicans proposed it so you know that it's gonna be a bullshit policy designed to tax the poor and give it to the megabanks that would run the carbon exchange. Cap and Dividend is a much much better policy than the lie that they call Cap and Trade. No progressive in their right mind should be for Cap and Trade.

  • it doesnt matter what obama does. He could be the most conservative man in the world and republicans would still vote for gingrich. They're too ignorant, greedy and stupid

  • rule of thumb, act like you know what your talking about and people will believe you. i dont know if i hate him or the people that believe his shit more.

  • @usimate I think your like most TYT viewers, you hate anyone who disagrees with you. Most Liberals and Progressives are hateful people anyway.

  • so hypocritical that these dogs even mention the words 'class warfare'

  • American Politics, a bigger and better circus then cirque du soleil

  • President Ron Paul will never send Americans to fight & die for Israel

    Vote Ron Paul !

  • So then why doesn't Obama come out in support of breathing oxygen? Will the conservatives stop breathing then, because Obama was for it? XD

  • Newt the SLIMY SALMANDER is TRULY Sarah Palin's and Michelle Bachmann's DICKLESS and BALLESS BITCH and PUSSY! Palin and Bachmann are VASTLY SUPERIOR to Newt in every single way! Michelle TRULY PWNED Newt for she is a PROPHET and APOSTLE who speaks the ABSOLUTE TRUTH of GOD HERSELF!

  • @FreeStuff4TheWorld Just ignore him, he's too obsessed with Palin to care whether she's even running for President or not

  • People seem to forget that even before Obama's inauguration, it has been their stated goal to do everything they can to get him out of office. Sear those words into your frontal lobes. The GOP's goal, the country be damned, is to get that darky out of the white house, and they will lie, cheat, steal and fuck us all to do it.

  • @MagellansUnderwear It seems " that darky " President Obama did all that he could do to keep the whitey John McCain out of the White House. That racist.

  • Wow, I've never disliked a presidential candidate as much as this guy, such a lying snake.

  • Gingrich lying? You take that back!

  • Its an American politician, why would we expect decency from him. Have we not learned anything in the past decade. We should just start voting for foreign politicians...wait what am I saying they'll put their bitch in anyway.

  • Look at newt. what a fat, disgusting slob. 350 pounds of oily fat slathered around a 135 pound frame.

  • Hmmm Cenk highly in favour of a tougher Cap and Trade...doesn't Al Gore the owner of Current TV makes billions from Cap and Trade? Don't get like RT and promote the wears of your paymasters.

  • The only job Newt should have is a salesman at Tiffany's.

  • Gingrich should go to jail for life for helping to destroy housing

  • @dmcarefuldriver " Gingrich should go to jail for life for helping to destroy housing " He'll probably go to jail at the same time as Chris Dodd and Barney Frank

  • Newt getting the republican nomination = Easy win for Obama in 2012...

  • Comment removed

  • @Avenue72nd just like last time around with him vs. McCain and his crazed Alaskan. I can't believe so many people are still buying into this same old BS at this point in the game. We should never buy into such obvious LIES and GAMES!

  • @Avenue72nd I just hope that ends up true. I can't imagine an America with that toad as a president. :(

  • @Avenue72nd Agreed....as long as everyone doesn't become overconfident and therefore decide not to vote.

  • @Avenue72nd guess that means a Republican wins either way...

  • @Avenue72nd hardly...

  • @Avenue72nd that's because the Repubs really don't want to win this one just like last time. Its a much easier, safer position to be in if they don't win & have to clean up the mess they left.

  • Ron Paul is easily the most intelligent person on stage.

  • @Alhazem1

    I think that's what's holding him back. Ron Paul isn't afraid to say inconvenient facts and uncomfortable realities.

  • @Alhazem1 and that's about as sad as it gets

  • @Alhazem1 He's just as crazy as the others! I know he doesn't want to war, but he's still for hardcore unfettered capitalism.

  • @LiBlub1>true enough.Paul fans bitch abt the media passing over him but, I'd love for even this corporate media to shine its attentions on Paul.By basically ignoring him, he gets a free pass, as those that support him don't seem to bother doing any research on his positions other than his own web site or his own videos.His only good stance is w/the wars & defense spending, on everything else he is just as bad as the rest if not worse

  • @Alhazem1 Yes, when it comes to foreign policy, otherwise he's just as nuts as everyone else. Paul wants to live in 1950s when USA was unprecedented #1. Just after the WW2 when the rest of the world was smashed to smithereens. Guess what? Europe, Japan and China are economic competitors. Why do you thing that US car industry went belly up?

  • @Alhazem1 Easily. It is probably going to be the reason why he's going to get minuscule amount of votes in the Republican primaries. You see, people like to vote for the guy they believe they understand, in other words: the one that is dumber than them. There are not many people who can vote Ron Paul.

  • @Alhazem1

    "Easily" in the sense that he's surrounded by morons. Although I'd say Jon Huntsman is more intelligent in the sense that he accepts evolution. Unfortunately, the republican base isn't looking for someone "intelligent" to support.

  • @Alhazem1 The sad part is he's also batshit insane

  • @TehDeminz . I see you did your research...

  • So people don't mind that their freedoms, rights and prosperity is eroded away by corporate interests, as long as the companies, investors and politicians give them a job at the end of it.

  • RON PAUL 2012 BABY.

    Anticipated responses.

    "HUR DUR PAULBOT"

  • @Sylinic I guess you are a big fan of Ayn Rand. No? Because Paul is.
