  • under the patriot act that lady is technically a terrorist

  • @graydog3971 and under the ndaa she can be indefinitely detained in gitmo

  • @jenjenjenhi that's great but these are the utter morons who create this image of Republicans and conservatives for the world to see.

    If you want to be seen as rational and intelligent people then you should publicly denounce and reject the Tea baggers.

    Just like Muslims do with there extremists.

    They say THESE PEOPLE DO NOT REPRESENT US.

    And maybe then we can have rational debate.

  • (Culture of fear -- The Cold War) x (Bully Pulpit -- Communist) + 1 woman that if I ever see I'll SLAP THE SHIT OUT OF= Tea Bagger...Absolute MORON!!!!!

  • That woman had a lot of guts saying such things when she was just one light little elbow nudge away from cars traveling at speeds great enough to turn her into a big red liquid firework.

  • those are some of the most ignorant people i have ever seen

  • Liberals are already dead....well,braindead ;/

  • @xlr8r2010

    Your word. Not that the teabaggers in this clip are Nobel Prize candidates, or physics majors.

    Just by reading your staggering ignorant post, I see that RW morons project their insecurities, fears and stupidity...

  • ya know whats better than a dead liberal? a dead conservitive AND a dead liberal. i would gladly piss on both of their stinking rotting carcasses

  • ...these are the only people that are ever on tv. the bad conservatives and this is why everyone thinks all conservatives are like. ok if your liberal thats cool i have no buisness in you personal views and beliefs. but really all the conservatives i know arnt like this...please dont assume were all like this.

  • I know what's better than a dead liberal a dead Nazi or a dead glenn beck

  • and they wonder why Gabby got shot......

  • Secession?? What will your new country be like? I guess all white, gun totin' haters. Is the gov really chaining you down? Are you not able to function under the current administration? I keep hearing this racist thread. Let go of your own chains of hatred and free yourself my friend.

  • Secession !.

    Time to throw down the chain's of the Federal Goverment.

  • Isn't it true that every time we entered a war since Lincoln, had a republican in office?

  • @brucenatelee That is because liberals don't want to defend America,look at the border issue.....do you think they give a fuck that we are being invaded EVERY DAY! Liberals just want the Mexican vote to keep power in Washington.

  • @xlr8r2010 just because we are in a war it doesn't mean we are safe, it would seem like common sense to someone who knows what it is.

  • I bet she wasn't but she looked like she was on something here.

  • piglozi deserves to get her ass kicked though

  • Obviously this turktard doesnt understand what free speech is

  • @crazybread1337 Hey dude, free speech is not okay when it stirs up violence. A boy wrote a letter to the white house on "how he was gonna kill the president". You know what happened? Secret service arrested him!!

  • I don't know how so much hate filled this country. Both parties suck and I thought the tea baggers were for something better. Obviously they're just whiners who didn't get their way and have to be led around by the nose. I wonder how they tie their shoes without someone giving them instructions. Stupid is as stupid does.

  • i would have pushed her in front of a car

  • im a liberal, and how about this. you republicans fucks can all die. how would you feel if we said and danced around threatening your lives and your god Bush, huh? doesnt feel good is it. so how about you just SHUT THE FUCK UP! or you can all go to another country like Chad, Africa or the middle east since you republicans love that place so much. do 'us' americans a favor and shut the fuck up.

  • @NOVAGIRL666 only liberals have ever threatened me. so i can kill you right?

  • there is clearly a war on liberalism going on in this country.

  • @hou12396 oh right...clearly a war on liberalism - and yet liberals are all over the place. who's got a napoleon complex now?

  • nothing better than dead conservatives.

  • OOohh, scary Liberals gonna getcha! Let's see, liberals wanna plant a tree, smoke some pot, make love not war. Their idea of protesting is sitting in a park holding hands and singing. They support people's rights, want to save the environment so OUR CHILDREN (remember them?) can have a future to look forward to. Yes! FEAR the Liberal, they all must die! How are they gonna harm you tea baggers, huh? Throw a flower at you? You've got all the guns, right? You people are the scourge of America.

  • @knucklepunt you're an idiot dude, no one fears you, they fear your stupidity.

  • @knucklepunt You are the scourge of America. You're just like that lady because you're generalizing a huge group of people. I'm not a TP member, but come on man. You're grouping all of them together just like they grouped liberals together. Get over yourself liberals aren't the only ones who think this lady is crazy.

  • @GitarrPwnz What? So knucklepunt is the scourge of America because he criticizes the view of an ignorant Tea Party enthusiast? Realistically there are other Americans who have this woman's view. Maybe you consider yourself conservative. It would be in your interest to speak up and criticize the kind of ignorant views some Tea Party enthusiast have. As a conservative who realizes this kind of garbage is not contributing to the well being of the nation, you should be blasting this crazy woman.

  • @jjevans2009 She isn't within listening distance. Otherwise I absolutely would. At least I am telling someone who has a realistic chance of hearing it.

  • @GitarrPwnz What? I'm sure that people like this woman are not going to change their minds.My point is that you criticize someone for criticizing this woman, a woman who you also believe is crazy. So if you agree with him why do you have a problem?Maybe because you could get judged as being like her? If that is the case then you should distance yourself from people like this and be very vocal in doing so. Many conservatives are being quiet and letting people like this woman tarnish their ideals.

  • @jjevans2009 He says teabaggers are the scourge of america, not the people in the video. I disagree with him. He's talking about an entire political viewpoint because of one crazy lady, I'm ONLY talking about him. We disagree.

  • @knucklepunt hey, flower power is a dangerous thing, man!

    Remember the those extremly violent, bloodthirsty hippies back in the 70's??

  • @militia765

    Yeah, they really fucked up on that one.

  • @militia765

    What have Republicans ever done for anyone other than the rich?

  • @JonnyMonster91 what have Democrats ever done for you? Charlie Rangel is Rich. Obama is Rich. ARE YOU?

  • @InvalidAuthorization

    I've never heard of either of those people. What do I care if they have more money than me?

  • Nothing better than a dead liberal?

    How about a dead terrorist, or a dead Nazi or a dead Kim Jong Il?

    Liberal means free. I thought conservatives liked freedoms?

  • All those cars were honking like, "GET OUT OUT OF THE ROAD YOU CRAZY FUCKS!"

  • That woman is the mascot of the political right.

  • Why do we keep trying to help these people? Let them die.

  • Dead Liberals? that means you want to kill Liberty, and those ideals!

  • Some people just need to learn to think for themselves.

  • old wht ppl with no new ideas or solutions for anything... keep us in the 60's..lol this is what FOX NEWS pushes...

  • There's nothing like a nut-job to drive their movement into obscurity "Thelma & Louise" style.

  • We are seeing clear evidence proving why Obama has factually become the most divisive President in modern history: Because of Obama’s precipitous falling popularity, the NAACP has begun attacking average Americans who do not agree with the socialist agenda of the Democratic Party. By making pejoratively false “racist” accusations, the immoral left in this country hopes to stamp out civil debate.

  • islandyou sound incredibily stupid. "Socialist Agenda?" You think politics is about socialism? Are you actually that slow? Have you not followed the evolution of politics in the slightest? You must be ANCIENT. Old as hell. Politics is about money now. About how much influence corporations can buy, in order to get policies which make them more money. The republicans are a whole-owned subsidiary of corporate america. Democrats are as well, just arent as obvious. A rock and a hard place...

  • Show me research that supports deficit spending, tax increases, bureaucracy expansion, and Government collusion, corruption and intruding into and molesting the markets.

    Not a single move, made by Obama, would be supported by dozens and dozens of Nobel Prize winning economist, with 3 Keynesian exceptions, as supported by tens of thousands of peer reviewed research papers. There is absolutely no empirical evidence supporting Keynesian, socialism on demand, NONE!

    Obama has failed.

  • @islandmuffin Sorry but you are trying to change the subject, and Im not going to let you. Back to healthcare. Exactly how did obama form a "healthcare sector seizure" when what he did was a FEDERAL MANDATE to buy from PRIVATE companies? You just basically outright lied. And Im not gonna let the subject change until you admit that....then I'll rinse and repeat for each of your points. So....What is ur response to my healthcare question?

  • @islandmuffin we'll get to deficet spending, tax DECREASES (for the poor and middle class...bet you didnt know that) we'll get to "molesting the market" etc etc...so far all you've done is blown hot air, and change the subject or add 5 new subjects to try and bury my responses. Like I said, one issue at a time. I'm not gonna let you waste air. So, HOW DID OBAMA "SEIZE" THE HEALTHCARE SECTOR, seeing as it only made PRIVATE companies bigger?

  • Obama’s political strategy is to racially polarize the USA by rallying his black base who are tacitly used to demonize hundreds of millions of white Americans for opposing government’s seizure of the healthcare sector of our economy; And at the same time, Obama has been pandering for the Latino vote while opposing (actually in-your-face suing) the 70% of Americans who support the rule-of law for immigration and anything else. Obama has divided us by race.

  • @islandmuffin Divided us by race? Healthcare sector seizure? HE MADE THE INSURANCE COMPANIES BIGGER! He signed a FEDERAL MANDATE that we all must buy from PRIVATE insurance companies (The right watered the public option down, and obama caved in his weakness to them) Do you not know anything at all? You are the most simple minded person I've ever encountered. You must either A) do ZERO research or B) be a republican propaganda account. (I suspect the latter)

  • @boorens18 Left-wingers / progressives are all about control for condescending environmental, feminist, sexual orientation, racial Marxist reasons.

    Attacking the fee market economic engine that benefits humanity - is no way to help humanity.

    The Europeans and everyone else in the G20 have already condemned this Super Fly Pimp’s spending habits. How many left-wing hoes can Lil’ Obama make it rain on until he runs up the debt high enough to destroy the USA?

  • I'm extremely far right, and I agree with you Cenk

  • kill em all

  • AH conservatives. SCUM of the earth!!!!!

  • @comedyliker12

    You sound like a conservative...

  • @zombieiscool i was making a parody of conservative.

  • do people just not even remember people making death threats against bush at rallies a few years back, are we just going to keep playing that bullshit game of infallibility, seriously, liberal conservative dem rep, it doesnt matter, both sides have said despicable things about the other, and both sides are guilty of pretending the other is evil, while they are the shining beacon of truth and justice. i geuss its human nature, and a part of forming identity, but this us or them game is just that

  • the woman is a plant, left and right stray from honest disagreement and make it personal, the difference between the left and right is the right sucks it up and drive on and the left acts like someone shot their dog,

  • What the woman just said that Liberals don't understand the large debt in this country and don't how put the debt down. Liberals need to get reality because we are in big trouble in this country. They will be vote out in November. The GOP has learn its lesson and they will put the country's debt down, and do it better than Liberals. U need to stop living in a fantasy world because this country is real big trouble :(

  • @JFilm5 it's the GOP's fault that we are in this shit. I think the tea party psychopaths are the ones that need to face reality.

  • @JFilm5 I'd believe but your not talk with words all that ok. its good tho liberals need to learns their lessons?

    Seriously... what the fuck did you just say? Is English not your first language?

  • @Lordes haha you are reflecting the very thing you purport to represent in these people! Funnily enough it felt exactly the same here im like a cat playing with a ball of wool, however my key difference is I embrace a larger view of the world and people; yours is very narrow and you are very partisan and really have the wrong idea about the way people really are, I shall say good life and luck to you!

  • @Lordes you lack complete sense, 'they deserve their own medicine' tarring everybody with the same brush most of the arguements have been made go back to my old comments to learn somthing, and try show a bit more understanding and sense for others, you purport it, now practice it and just because somebody doesnt agree with you doesnt mean they neccessarily wrong or bad, so go and learn somthing.

  • @Lordes she was NOT being serious she sounds nothing like Osama, it doesnt appear that she is going to has done anything like the destruction that al-qaeda have done. You are taking her too seriously which goes to show that these 'stupid' people you identify are no worse than the you yourselves on the left. She was not slandering anyway but illegal or not you shd be able to slander who you want.

  • @Lordes Also to this comment I say just because they have say nothing does not mean they do not condemn it. Do not a have a sole view of American conservatives as the quintessential conservatives look elsewhere, it is regulation that has driven your money-makers away because they do not like to be taxed to pieces, the Bush admin was very un-conservative they looked after the rich increasing the state and taxing the poor, I agree it was VERY bad admin. But do not think right wing=bad.

  • @Lordes she does NOT want liverals dead thats where you fall over, your just as bad as the people you identify to talk of throwing a middle aged women in jail, not ashow some understanding, she was not being serious clearly it was tongue in cheek, and the people who make this programme are either stupid to think her serious or maliciously trying to make her look biolent, remeber freedom of speech no matter what it is people say.

  • @Lordes Its not justfied at all, look at my previous comments which you seem to have ignored completely, i cannot account for the right in america im sure they condem the violenece, but as I say the democrats are no better, there is a good solid ideological basis for american conservatism thats one of the best working systems in the world, my orinigal point is that the video is misrepresentative and clearly, disgustingly partisan, a lie in fact.

  • You know fine well that is absolute rubbish, you are deluded fool to talk of mass murder. Im not American, I condemn any violence against anyone, but the stigmatisation of the right in America is disgraceful, the same as stigmatising Islam for the minority of terrorists, but Democrats are no better they used snide underhanded methods for their ends which can be more damaging, Im not partisan but the stigmatisation of the right in America is obvious and wrong and seemingly born of insecurity.

  • what a load of trash, with the tea its only a metaphor she doesnt literally mean boil liberals alive absolute leftist trash, i would of thought poliitcal discussion would be more appropriate though leftists or 'liberals' as they say in the US tend to veer away from in-depth dicussions. I have heard more ridiculous things from leftists this stigmatisation of the right in america is plainly disgusting, same as the old stigmatisation of the working class left in britain, its now the right in the US

  • Republicans causing all kinds of threats to Democrats?? It's a contrived. story and a total diversion. The Democrats are so losing the information war on the health care bill that they're trying to do anything to distract everybody's attention from it, and it's all part of a plan to criminalize ... DISSENT.

    Let ask the question... when is the last time you can recall a bunch of conservatives having a riot?

  • WOW!!! I would have pushed that bitch into oncoming traffic...

  • Heres a nice example.

  • haha. samspade1957...account gone...LOL.

    teabaggers are stuck in the 1950's....

    This bitch needs to be rolled out....

  • By the way, let the protestors talk their talk. The Secret Service are professionals, they know when to step in. Well, they are usually pretty great, they sort of fumbled on that whole dinner party thing.

  • Ugh... look we're having enough problems in Michigan as it is, don't rub it in.

  • It's funny that idea of a country trying to take care is citizens health, has made so many people venomously bitter. My question to the teabaggers is, "How do you justify supporting a system that is willing to literally kill you, or a loved one, as opposed to national health care system that is not profit motivated?"

  • fucking right-wing trash, get the fuck out of this country. seriously if these people just died the world would be so much better

  • thats ironic, on a video about a right winger as you are calling them hating a liberal, you say the same about them. Maybe you should calm down.

  • Again, here we have "The Young Turds" blowing things out of proportion. One bad apple... You find one person and make them the representative for the whole movement. I like the idea that the liberals are scared of this movement, as they should be, the teaparty movement will certainly prove this young turd wrong.

  • "The Young Turds"--clever!! Poo humor is SUCH a good response to political discourse.

    Did you watch the beginning of the video, when the anchor said that the people that would be shown were not representative of all Republicans or Conservatives?

  • @samspade1957 lololololol you think this is an isolated incident? No, this woman represents a large part of Republicans. Just turn on Fox News.

    Funny how Republicans said that people were unamerican to criticize the President then turn around and do it themselves.

    Anybody has reason to fear this movement. This is insano America riling up for a great tragedy.

  • Free speech is a First Amendment right. I can call this President a Communist(which he is) and still have my free speech protected. Maybe, it's time normal Americans did rise up. Civil-War anyone? Just saying!

  • @samspade1957 Why all the hypocrisy then? Why is it that Democrats shouldn't have kept speaking out against president Bush and the Iraq war after 9/11. But when Obama gets into office suddenly he's a "Communist"

  • @samspade1957 How, how is Obama a Communist.

  • @robertrulebirtannia If it needs to be explained to you, than you are one as well.

  • @samspade1957 just desperate for another commie to fight, eh? how does it feel to know the evil empire is YOU.

  • @alxdnld Not looking for a fight at all, just stating facts. Obama is looking to brew trouble, to stir things up. There will either be civil unrest, a revolution, or civil war. None of them I promote nor advocate, but it's coming. It's coming!

    Hopefully, the November Democratic/Incumbent wipe-out will be enough to stop this mad-man Obama from continuing his communist agenda and destroying America further. In the future, please, mind your own business. Good bye liberal!

  • both parties suck balls...vote Libertarian

  • Libtards

  • Wasn't there another very conservative Party that said that certain groups were better dead than alive? Hmm...oh yeah: THE NAZI'S!!!

  • @veronicafan2000 the nazi's was a totally different right wing party yo. dont be stupid. we are the party of freedom and liberation . and what exactly are you guys right now ? shit. the opposite of that i know that much.

  • how is this not conclusive proof that teabaggers are the idiots and the fascists here? How can anyone watch this and think, "gee, these people sure seem to have it right"?

    What a bunch of whiny fucking morons. They want to use our roads, but they don't want to pay for them (or they're too stupid to understand that you HAVE to pay for them in order to have them). Bunch of failures and spoiled little brats.

  • Over the past 30-35 years the very rich have had thier taxes decreased and decreased and decreased again. Can anyone say that our country is better off with the economic path we have choosen? Let alone that taxes on the average American are any more than slightly lower.

  • i thought you did not like liberals becaise they tax too much.

    so you want to turn to socialism in order to punish the liberals? twisted logic

  • She seems borderline retarded. An 8 yr old in an adult body.

    She may have impulsive violent notions, but maybe that's just because she can't think.

  • liberals vs conservatives, i enjoy watching the divided states of america, as if there is really a difference between the two.

  • @jimm17 someone that says that there is no difference between the two parties. your fuckin retarded and do some fuckin research ! dummy. ones better than the other

  • no genius, they just act differently, they both want the same results for their respective parties. u have a distorted sense of reality, but i dont blame you.

  • wow.....

    ok, i am a liberal and of late, the republicans have definately NOT been my own cup of tea (no pun intended), but i have NEVER nor would i EVER say "nothing is better than dead conservatives". It is their legal, consitutional right to be conservative, liberal, moderate, socialist, etc and i will not wish death or harm on them for it!

  • wtf is a liberal

  • Political party

  • Its mostly a term to cetegorize a very general set of political beliefs. Liberal, in the traditional sense, means a general belief in the value of personal liberties. In the modern sense, its been as muddied up as the term, "conservatism". Conservatism, as a fiscal policy, just means responsible government spending. In the social sense, it means passing legislation based on values that are perceived to be traditionalist. Fiscal conservatism isn't necessarily incompatible with social liberalism

  • THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!

    After all, everybody knows that no one ever said anything bad about Conservatives or Republicans...

    Talk about grasping at straws, Cenk-o!

    Infinity Negative Stars!

  • conservative people= stupid, religious, non educated people

  • @azteckike conservatives are stupid huh. then why do educated conservatives SMASH your totally stupid ass arguments???

    your party doesnt do anything good for anybody except the recipients and government workers. but do you forget where that money comes from that the two "special classes" get ???

    the people who work ! dammit

  • Political fanboys are as gay and stupid as console fanboys.

    And your name, liberalsAREbigZEROS, is just as gay as pokemon77pikayeah

    Congradulations, you get a fail trophey...

    Conservatives suck as much as liberals do. Get over it. It is no big deal. They both suck, blah blah, move on to other things

  • @azteckike

    mexicans are far worse...or jews.

  • Hey I think this woman is an absolute nut and should be checked out by Secret Service, however, how many times during Bush' presidency did people do the exact same thing saying how they wanted him dead and such. Cenk is a complete fool, I realize in this video he didn't say this all Republicans but he often does which is quite offensive considering I am soldier in the U.S. Army who has and will have respect for any President who comes along.

  • What is it with batshit insane Neo-Conservatives thinking Liberals and Centrists dont own guns? I have plenty of guns, and yet I haven't threatened to shoot any right wingers.

    Wtf, mate?

  • Liberals are cancer, how? I may not be one, but I don't see the 'cancer' of wanting to let women have reproductive rights. And gay rights for that matter, etc. You may not like Liberals, but at least they aren't the one shoving a big white guy in the sky down my unwilling throat.

  • That is all you know about the liberal agenda, abortion and gay marriage?

  • Thats all conservatives know or care about

  • Don't forget about guns, lower taxes, less government and more freedom.

  • @causticstorm constructive criticism, I like it

  • @causticstorm if you are a liberal and own a firearm then you are in the minority. but never the less good on you for exercising your 2nd amendment right. if more liberals owned guns their wouldnt be so much of this anti gun legislation being passed. and a "neo con" IS a centrist. they are much farther left than a conservative likes.

  • I'd rather have a brain than a gun.

  • I'd rather have a brain than a gun.

  • These peoples are encouraged inspired by the Main Stem Media!

    Forget Fox!

    CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN.

    Remember they didn't report the "TEA BAGGERS as Racists!

    They were afraid to report the Clamor over the SCHOOL SPEECH as "Racists".

    JIMMY CARTER had to point out the Historic

    aspects of JOE WILSON & JIM CROWE & SONS OF THE CONFEDERACY!

    They never mentioned the Obvious Lies CHENEY & BUSH & COLIN POWELL told, Leading us to WAR"

    And CBS fired DAN RATHER, because of one error in his report on Bush!

  • let's go bitzh

  • chill out man, i don't dislike her because of the expression she came up with on the spot, but because she wants liberals dead.

  • im sorry...are you actually defending this women?

  • I love it when conservatives try ot blame democrats for the recessions. Its hillarious because after 8 years of a mentally challenged republican president that held a majority... you think they'd be angry with him. Not the guy who came in once the recession was in full swing? Some americans.... they make me laugh. Any true conservative would want to work with the liberals to fix america. And its Vice versa for true liberals. Finger pointing has just caused more problems and divided the country.

  • 8 YRS?

    About 35 YRS!

    Excluding 8 Clinton yrs, Since Reagan we have

    suffered under Astronomical spending, while

    moving MFG jobs overseas!

    While proclaiming a FREE MARKET ECONOMY

    and (REAGAN) DEFICITS DOESN'T MATTER,

    They closed thei eyes while ENRON, AIG MADOFF and he many Others, ROBBED US BLIND!

  • lol!

    FINALLY

    I love talking to americans who get it.

    We shouldnt have Free trade, Fair trade is the way to go. That way no jobs are going overseas.

  • Nothing better than a dead asshole conservative.

  • he should have pushed her into incoming traffic

  • by making islam illegal then surely you turn into the oppressor? Not all muslims honor kill, and how many murders have there been in the name of christianity? LOTS. Also Muslims don't worship mohammed, he's just a prophet, so that shows how much you know about Islam. You are obviously uneducated.

  • It seems to me there's two Americas - a conservative one and a liberal one. The two will never be reconciled. This raises the question of whether the union will one day break up.

  • Comment removed

  • The interviewer was leading the woman to get the answers he wanted. Poor journalism. However, does anyone think she will be able to dunk the president i boiling water? Btw. she didn't say she would KILL the liberals, she just said she wished them dead. There is a difference. The latter is not a threat, but merely a wish.

  • Its funny how you bitch that people say they want to kill Obama and that its a bad thing to say that , but when people say they want to kill Bush , you liberals think nothings wrong with that.

  • I completely support that statement

  • That's true. I used to hang with some libs in bars, and usually they had a conversation about how noone took out George Bush. Then wander off into a conversation on how to do it, if they had the opportunity. Then the conversation ended on the note that Cheney would be even worse.

  • I don't think it's right to kill anyone. I'm not American so I have no say in who becomes your leader, but I was relieved when Obama was elected. Bush just made a mess.

  • And what proof do we have that Obama is not going to make a "mess"? Obama is just as bad as Bush. And Obama would probably make just as poor judgements as Bush given the same circumstances. Same shit, new wrapping. I have no proof of this of course, but let the man show how great he is before we start blowing sunshine up his ass.

    Bush was bad, but not the disaster as Gore would have been.

  • At least Obama has started trying to make some much needed changes. I'm not saying Obama is perfect but at least he's carrying out the changes he said he would make when you guys elected him!

  • Most people didn't know what they voted for. Let's see if the "changes" he brings will bring the recession into collapse before we start blowing sunshine up his ass.

    The fact people elected this guy makes me believe there is something terribly wrong with democracy.

  • Well people should at least look at the policies BEFORE voting, they should at least know who stands for what. That's the voters's fault if they didn't at least read up on what the candidates stand for!

    The recession will takes years to pass, there is no quick-fix solution. I don't blow sunshine up any politician's arse, I just believe that change is needed.

    Just because people elected someone you didn't vote for doesn't mean there's anything wrong with democracy!

  • The recession is due to another slick liberal whose name is Clinton. He made the recession possible by venturing into his affirmative action housing. Now they have a president who is spending money like a drunk sailor. Forget Bush and his Iraq, Obama has way surpassed that handing out money to industries that will soon be back to square one. The recession will take years to pass? Why thank you Cpt. Obvious! The question is more how to approach the problem itself.

  • I am aware that you have to question how to approach the problem, think only right wing conservatives have thought of this? Obama bailed out these industries, it was a lesser of two evils, if he hadn't been bailed out they would have completely fallen apart. The same is happening in Britain too, the government is having to bail out the banks because if it didn't millions of people will be worse off. To be honest, you're just looking for a scapegoat, and hey why not just blame the liberals?

  • I am not saying the the republicans had a much better plan either. However, you are talking about banks, and that is a completely different issue from handing out money to corporations that are hemorrhaging due to an inability to adapt. And that the liberals are behind the guidelines that led to the collapse of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is no secret, just an "inconvenient truth" as you socialists like to rant about. Conservatives are to blame for not ending the lunacy.

  • There isn't much difference really, banks are corporations too but these places had to be bailed out or people who had investments in these companies would have lost a lot more. But there's only so much that can be spent, so yes some do collapse. Conservatives are to blame for more than "not ending the lunacy", they didn't come up with a decent strategy either. No group of people can claim to have all the answers, liberal or conservative.

  • "No group of people can claim to have all the answers, liberal or conservative."

    No, but I can claim to have a strong opinion on who did the most damage.

    Yes, Banks are corporations too, but on a different level than industries that are losing money left and right. Still, they are part of it. Many due to Clinton's affirmative action house loans.

    Here's a good strategy some conservatives came up with: How about not lending out money to people who can not pay their loans?

  • So why didn't Bush use this strategy? I'm amazed at how you forget the mistakes made in the Bush administration. He decided to spend billions on the war in Iraq (and know we can't forget this as I said earlier) he even failed to convince NATO that invading Iraq was important, he sent troops out there ill-equipt and grossly underestimated the cost of the war. However at the same time he cut money spent on education, training, environment and housing.

  • I guess he program was already in progress and it would be hard to stop it.

    About Iraq, yes that was a mayor fuck up, however you are wrong in certain details. The troops were not ill equipped in the invasion stage. In fact they did a pretty good job in reducing casualties. Most US casualties are a result of the occupation stage.

    Obama has spent more than Bush in a couple of months.

    "..he cut money spent on education, training, environment and housing."

    Reference please?

  • for every dumb conservative, you'll find 100,000 intelligent ones.

  • can you back this up with any evidence?

  • Just look around! We're trillions of dollars in dept (and growing fast) and yet we're not eating mud cakes.

    A sizable portion of the country is smart enough to be mostly self-reliant and productive.

  • Conservatives suck!!!!! You people are destroying this country. I would hate to live in a world of what you think of as justice. It definately wouldn't be America which was basically founded by liberal ideas. Such as freedom and liberlty for all, equality as well as opportunity for all. Plus the power to take part in the governing of our country. Sorry, but conservatives are all about none of the above. Under them we would lose all freedoms, forced into bible study, the military and slavery!!!!!

  • American was founded by classical liberals. That's pretty much what I am. Many people who call themselves "conservatives" are classical liberals.

    We believe in the inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We also believe in the practical value of a self-reliant, loving, and generous society.

  • Bit kooky to blame conservatives for loss of individual freedom, when the so called liberals are the ones pushing for the nanny state with a regulated private life.

    As an example, if you get national health care, don't you think the government suddenly will have even more of a say in how you lead your lives? Suddenly extra taxes on unhealthy food and alcohol will be more justified, after all if you live unhealthy everyone will have to pay for it. And that is just the start of the track.

  • if national health care is introduced in America it simply means health care will be available for all. It won't mean you can't drink, smoke or whatever. It will just mean if u are poor and you become ill you will be able to get treatment. You won't be taxed extra for being overweight/alcoholic.

    Also if national health is introduced, u would still be able to keep your medical insurace if you wish to do so.

  • Oh wow! You got a flyer too? Yes, I know what they SAY.

    How stupid are you? Of course a cradle to grave policies will ultimately lead to more governmental control over people's lives. Free health care is one of the main arguments for extra taxation of alcoholic beverages and other "unhealthy" food items.

  • No I didn't get a flyer, they don't bother shipping them to Britain, we already enjoy the benefits of a national health service!

    The government hasn't stopped anyone from drinking, smoking (Unless you're underage!) or eating unhealthily over here!

  • if you have a liberal eating babies blood, and people want to have the executive killed, that's grounds for turk to put you in jail. The soviets, first thing, they kill millions of people. who? justice lovers, thinking, clergy, sane people, honest people. This is what turk wants for you. No news, just lies.

  • how bout the millions of liberals who said conservatives should be killed? millions. or the liberals who said things like, Bush is stealing the worlds oil so he can hide the world's goal on the moon where aliens pay him for it. there were a lot of those people. i would say about 1/3 of liberals.
