  • "I'm not the smartest guy in the world!"

    Really? I for one am shocked!

  • Murdoch let his employees hack the phone of a murdered little girl....I think Beck's lies are completely fine with him too. Murdoch is a douche.

  • I think he talks sense. contenplate that its real for a moment, just pause and process the thing he says...rethink. now does it all make sense to you?.

  • GLENN BECK RULES!

  • I live in Europe and realize European news if full of bias too!!! Both are biased but they biased in completly different directions. Choose the one you want to hear. Everybody that says that Beck is biased disagrees with everything they say... people who say that EuroNews is biased disagree with everything they say..... so watch what you want don't convince people that your opinions are fact theirs biased. In news there is something called perspective, and as a result all news comes out slanted.

  • Is that the word News in the left hand corner??? Are they running a story on an Idiot??

  • that was so crazy, seriously, clinically crazy

  • BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

  • some one pls help this guy and put out him of his misery

  • i wouldnt be surprised if he kills himself one day and makes it looks like he was murdered

    hes just that committed to his work

  • You'll see in the end who's right... it doesn't matter, you can't change the cattle's mind. Go ahead be a socialist, anti- american liberal.. I can't wait to see you at the "great white throne judgement." I'll be in the observing section, whatching your pethetic sqeemish self quiver when the Lord says,..."Depart from me, I never knew you."

  • @chericdl You are a typical stupid irrational theocon. Let me ask you a little question, what is so holy or religious about the GOP's or teabagger's platform? Or where in the bible do they talk about America, ending slavery or freedom of speech & religion? You religious saps are being played like fiddles by the right wing elite who don't give a fig about you. You'll get nothing but your stupid church to pray in, a football field and some guns if they had their way

  • @chericdl I'm sure he'll also say to you, "Depart from me, you're a self righteous douche."

  • media matters geta life

  • mediamatters suck and they lie

  • @chericdl Witty retort. I understand Sarah Palin's looking for speech writers. Surely, that is your calling.

  • @chericdl where was the lie here? I heard a crazy man rant and they didn't alter any of his words.

  • not every single utterance out of Becks mouth is gospel, You people are so quick to jump on him when he says something wrong, what about when he gets it right?

    there needs to be a fundamental change in our government because the way it's working now is ineffective, so it doesn't need to be Glenn Beck's solution but there needs to be A solution.

    At teh very least hes pointed out the problem. Special interests

  • Dad = stupid. Good one beckerhead

  • If someone tells me they listen to (and admire) Glen Beck, they are off my list. There is something lacking there.

  • What scares me isn't that Glenn Beck is a psychopathic moronic idiot. What gives me cold sweats and nightmares is the fact that people actually watch him and believe what he and his Fox cronies are saying.

  • @MrFrezzin There is a great swath of really stupid irrational people in the USA.

  • "I'm not the smartest guy in the world." No shit Sherlock!

  • I just wish the Quacks that listen to this mother goose would check there facts with ANY other site than Fox, news with an agenda isn't news.

  • stupid fucking azz wipes what a bunch of idiots. Conservatives are not putting up wit your BS! It's over now. You and osama obama are done with your lies and corruption!

  • Teabaggers, the highest demographic of ignorance since, well... the last time they demonstrated against brown people in the 60s.

  • Did he seriously just say that if he dies, it's the liberals' fault? He ran out of things to blame on the liberals, so he blamed his own death, which hasn't even happened, on them. Pathetic.

  • Has anyone started talking about a counter demonstration for this jackoffs 9/12 B.S. at the Lincoln memorial on 8/28/10. patriotsquestion911. com. I got an idea, the 9/13 project to expose truth deniers and neocon thugs for the fascist corporate(state) criminal scumbags that they ARE!!! 2+2 still =4, not 5 like CONmen like this shithead would have us beLIEve.

  • "I'm not the smartest guy in the world..." You can say that again.

  • you are not like me at all. you are the dumbest person in the world. go away

  • This is sooooooo much better with the vuvuzela button.

  • seek to create a collective of one out of each person in society

  • just listen to what the man says and make your own decisions, and stop trying to put words in Becks mouth. If you dont buy what he says, dont watch the show but let the freedom of speech ring true in this great Country. Thank you!!!

  • exactly! NIKOLA TESLA could have saved us from this 100 yrs ago! please look it up, he created a wireless energy system that allowed energy to be obtained anywhere on earth! i put up info on my youtube and i demostrate a 20 ft wireless transmission to prove that the system works! we could build it right away and get off of this oil dependence, you can run cars wirelessly and never need oil again. please read tesla's "increasing human energy" it tells u real clean energy

    COPY

  • @stevedb28 No one needs to put words into his mouth, he puts his own words there(usually followed by his foot) and doesn't need any one to do it for him. Do U HATE 911 victims and their families as much as he does? Watch the video- Glenn Beck Fail: Best Of Beck Clips

  • Thanks Glenn Beck...Ohboma is a Communist!!!

  • @vinner38 what was bush to you? criminal. tax cuts for the rich, lied about WMDs, you trust anything fox says. you agree with beck going after obama kids too huh? where was you while bush was destroying the country huh loser

  • @mattr159 There was wmd's in iraq, 500 tons of yellowcake urainium was found, dangerous chemicals were found, he had all the makings, whats the difference?

    Tax cuts are needed, Have you ever gotten a JOB from a poor person? answer no you have not!!! So its fine when the left goes after Palin and her children? Obam's is the one here destroying our country...Period Oh and people like you

  • @vinner38 WHAT PLANET DO YOU SPEND MOST OF YOUR TIME ON? WMD'S WAS NEVER FOUND!! IT WAS A LIED FROM BUSH AND CHENEY! TWO WARS, WARRANTLESS WIRE TAPPING! FACTS ARE FACTS NOT LIES, FACTS SARAH PALIN TEENAGE DAUGTHER WAS PREGNANT WITHOUT BEING MARRIED. THE FACT ON THE MATTER IS YOUR MAD CAUSE THE PRESIDENT IS BLACK SO GET OVER IT LOSER!

  • @vinner38 Since when do you need to be a rich greedy scumbag to own a business?The real terrorists have all the nukes in the world already assembled and strapped to icbms by THE THOUSANDS.look up where the most nuked place on earth is and who did the nuking.I have ABSOLUTELY NO fear of third world jackoffs with yellow cake.It's the empires that ALREADY(hypocritically I might add)have them & can possibly cause the extinction of the human race.PATRIOTSQUESTION911. COM, END THE LEFT/RIGHT PARIDIGM.

  • How could this guy evne have a show. What such a fragment of random thought. I believe if he realy knew what he was talking about he'd have a lot more leverage in politically posturing. Guess what, he's a nobody in the political world? What a bad examply of americanism.

  • Lets not forget Rupert Murdock owns tabloids....

  • Why does this anti-American Nazi lover still have his own show?

  • Welcome to the meltdown of your own retarded show Glenn.

  • I've been waiting for his meltdown for a long time. I cant wait till he COMPLETELY boils over. It's gonna be some good television or radio that is 4 SURE!!!

  • These media "moguls" are not reporters people...they are entertainers...reading cue cards or a script written for them. Anyone can see what their job is by looking at the on-going messages they espose (Olberman, Madow, Mathews, Limbaugh, Hannity, Shultz, Coulter et all, they're all the same - just a different message of fear and loathing.

    Laugh at them and don't take them seriously.

  • So I watch this video and go... hmmmm, I wonder if his ratings are really that bad. Then I realize this is a Media Matters produced piece. I think I will go find my own information out... because I certainly don't trust Media Matters to tell me the truth. Seems all sides are spinning agendas. Can't take this nonsense anymore.

  • i love american media...its so exciting, in europe we just get unbiased facts, booooooooriiiiing lol

  • @tigerfedor That's why I watch the BBC news instead of any American stations >.>

  • @tigerfedor In Europe you got socialism and lost the true sense of liberty . We can still save the U.S. I love Europe. But socialism is killing the once great continent and you still can't see the threat right in front of you. Keep it up with the envy. America, fuck yeah!!! lol

  • @tigerfedor In America we do not have news... it's all entertainment that is taken just a wee little too serious. /sigh

  • People just don't want to hear the truth, they want to hear rosey lies!!

  • Hi everyone! I have listened to Glenn for 10 years now. Yes he is really out there and can be classified as a fearmonger. Heck just being on Fox news alone should tell you something. lol After a while though you come to this conclusion about him. He earns his living off of fear. Most people live in fear and that is why some listen to him.

    I do not see Fox News keeping him on much longer. As his time nears the end on fox news you will see him get really way out there! Just watch. Peace out!

  • He's overly dramatic about everything. He's the kind of guy who would make a terrible employee. Hysterical dealing with customers. Always stirring up co workers with imaginary problems and conspiracy theorys. Telling everyone to put their 401k in gold.

  • BP Oil Spill Cost: $1 Billion (5% of Annual Profit)

  • When you know the truth, the truth will set you free!. The real purpose of journalism is to be the watchdog of the government. Very few networks and journalists are courageous enough to stand up to the government today, for various reasons, including power, greed, and incompetence. Go Beck!

  • It's like a car wreck. You know it's terrible and shouldn't look over but you can't stop yourself.

  • omg....he should be in a straight jacket!

  • WHO THE FUCK LISTENS TO THIS LOONIE!

  • @TheZsmith88 Way too many Americans.

  • Everyone who agrees with Beck please watch a movie called "The Road". This is what Beck is preparing you for. Beck will lead you to believe god will save the USA. That war, over population, disregard for our environment is a sustainable option. It is not ! The only option is conservation of our natural resources, new clean technology and diplomacy. Not hoarding gold, national isolationism, war and paranoia. American was built on trust, hard work and honesty. Not the capitalization of everything.

  • LOL.

  • should have just stopped the clip at 0.06. That pretty much says it all

  • MediaMatters has outdone itself this time by using the left's own corruption to defend the left! MediaMatters has brilliantly captured soundbytes of Beck right as he prefaces what "crazy" things the liberals are doing, and in this video he sounds insane. But if you were to watch the entire episodes where he actually presents a case, you'll suddenly peg your thoughts of insanity to the left.

    Congratulations on avoiding all facts presented on Beck!

  • It makes me happy and hopeful for the American people and future that these videos only have around 10k views.

    Media Matters is a mouthpiece for the corrupt Obama administration and the American people are rejecting it. Just like they have rejected the Coffee Party.

  • haha. this guy is awesome. Complete nut job.

  • Whoever this video maker is not to intelligent. Why don't you discredit his facrs. Wait, you can't because he makes sense.

  • @ScScruzer831

    Facts****

  • your just a drunk fuck shit, with a retard daughter

  • Goodd going Glen. mediamatters and of its dudes are scared of you. You know the ones that are first to bitch, but will never get in to help fix anything. The PUKES of America.

  • I hope Beck gets Aids and dies. He is a NWO shill and tool of the elites!

  • @meushubris "He's part of the NWO" I think he opposes the NWO due to his hate of the Government right now :)

  • @GOllumboy101 I strongly disagree. He is a Republican shill at best and a treasonous scumbag at worst.

    He said he hates 9-11 victims families. I dont care who the hell you are, you say or feel like that, I have no desire to listen to you on anything ya know...

    I use to love him, now I find him repulsive... Its a shame, I have all his books.

  • @meushubris "He hates 9-11 victims families." You're fucking retarded. Either you have never watched the show and go around spreading what you believe, or you listened to someone who completely hates Glenn Beck. You're fucked if you think that. I'm not saying love the guy, but if you think he has hatred towards those people, you're fucked.

  • @GOllumboy101 He didnt say that?

  • @GOllumboy101 I guess not huh? Why not type into the YouTube search bar... 'Glenn Beck hates 9-11 victims families' smart guy who knows everything...

  • It starts with money and ends with money. And, Glen gets the money for acting like a nut. He's a richbnut wearing magic underwear.

  • if only someone would cut this bastard's breaks. if only.

  • OH YEAH.

  • "the decline in his audience has hardly made a dent on the lead he enjoys for his 5 p.m. festival of emotions. His rivals should hold off a little on popping the Champagne."

    Joe Flint-LA Times

  • "Even with smaller ratings numbers, he's still the second-highest-rated cable news host, behind only his Fox colleague Bill O'Reilly. And Beck's year-to-year drop since April 2009 was more modest than others — 7 percent among total viewers and 6 percent in the age 25-54 demographic (the viewership advertisers most covet)."

    Michael Calderone-Yahoo

  • @400lbDoofus, just goes to show ya that there is a lack of good taste and intelligence in the u.s.

  • @eugeneonegin09 yeah you're a prime example. and quit fucking with my screen name, asshole! It makes you look like teenager. then again maybe you are.

  • Subscribe to YouTube/Ponzinomics for all your latest videos on our Ponzinomics!

  • @GrandMAIsACoon,just goes to prove there is no accounting for standards or taste

  • you're not smartest guy in the world that's for sure, but you might be the most retarded, ahole.

  • Glenn: "Would (Murdoch) let me say these things if they weren't true?"

    ...Rupert Murdoch would sell his mother if it made him money.

  • YouTube search: GLENN BECK & BILL O'REILLY CALL FOR MORE TAXES ON THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

  • You can put this together Glenn, because you're just making pieces up in order to fit.

  • haha

    people are getting smarter and ignoring this clown ass, fuck nut

    fox=bullshit, biased, and propaganda for the far right wing idiots

  • wtf does Shakespeare have to do with politics...

  • "Do you think Rupert Murdoch would let a guy say a bunch of stuff that's completely wrong and stay on the network?"

    Why, yes.

  • Glenn Beck blew the lid off of the Obama conspiracy. Sam Fischer was going to secure the executive office's power by detonating an EMP in the Fox News building, then rendezvous with Nancy Pelosi and, using weapons funded by ACORN, kill Aslan and crucify Jesus. Again. Glenn Beck was the first to put it together. Thank God for Glenn Beck

  • that was hilarious

  • someone pls call beck's shrink to up his meds

  • Very good news that people are deserting this fuck up in droves.

  • Beck has been melting down for years now. He's pretty much a sad puddle of wax at this point.

  • Nobody takes these idiots serious anymore.. lies after lies...

  • A question for Glenn Beck: How long would Murdock let you stay on the air if you dared to stray from the Fox Party Line? ☺

  • The GOP: Agenda over truth since 1980!

  • @verworn The Democratic Party: Taking your money and expanding the federal government since the 1910's. When you think about tyranny, think Democrat.

  • @400lbDoofus, the republican and libertarian parties. the party of legitimate and permissable selfishness& the party of rednecks.when you think racism, self-centeredness,and ignorance think republican and libertarian

  • The GOP: Agenda over truth since 1980!

  • mm4a thrives on other peoples downfalls. thats one way to make ya feel big , so everyone that agrees with this is a bully hippie emasculated by their infantile complainee ways

  • @Kevron76, must feel good to fawn over an imbecile like Dreck.guess you feel like an american patriot when listening to this clod

  • beck is not crazy, he is pretty smart, he is of course being dishonest and manipulative its an act, he is what one calls a news actor or news entertainer, he makes money for FOX so he stays on the air its that simple, he mixes things up, uses things that are legitimately not such a good idea ( like cap'n'trade ) and spins it to fit his own paranoid and very fake agenda people on both sides of the fence need to realize this, its very obvious and purposeful

  • WHAT! dude bout to snap.

  • i wonder what would happen if murdock died! lol. his the brains behind all this right-wing fascism in america.

  • LoL, if this was a TV show, it'd be great... Too bad people -really- believe this guy....

  • You really have to question the stability of the people who devoutly follow Glenn Beck. The more you listen to this man, the more he sounds like a cult leader. It's OK to passionately disagree, but it is irresponsible to use a mass media platform to outright lie.

    It's not your fault Beck followers, cult leaders are suave and savvy people. Ask anyone who's been able to break away from one, and they'll tell you the cult's message is intoxicating.

    Just a word of advice: Get out while you can.

  • @route99 "He's a cult leader" My responce: "You're a dip shit"

  • @route99

    He presents facts. You say he is lying. NAME ONE

  • @route99 You make no sence. I don't think he is starting a CULT. So you were you in a CULT. Is that how you know. Is it any different than a bunch of people following a guy around the U.S. screaming (YES WE CAN) and aint done SHIT. You really have to question the stability of the people who devoutly follow OBAMA .The more you listen to this man, the more he sounds like a cult leader.It's OK to passionately disagree, but it is irresponsible to use a mass media platform to outright lie. Soooo

  • @prlactag agree well said

  • @route99

    Haha! I agree with you, he is kind of like a cult leader. I think he's more of a Fascist Propagandist trying to terminate the Progressives rather than the Jews like Hitler. It's a little bit scary. Once he started attacking "Social Justice" like it was some kind of tactic set out by Communists... I had to keep watching this guy, what is he going to say next? It's ALL about ratings, people!

  • What the f'ck did he say then? "we're going to be mexico ganged if we don't stop it"? WHat the hell is that supposed to mean?

  • Is Rupert Murdoch going to put that all together and keep it on the air if it's all wrong?

    Of course. Every thing that Murdoch wants us to believe is wrong.

    Murdoch doesn't give a damn about truth, or facts, or honesty. He keeps you on the air because he can use you to push his agenda, and more importantly, YOU MAKE HIM MONEY.

  • You choose not to look into what I'm saying.

    You choose not to believe the global warming fraud is a complete takeover of society.

    You choose to not believe that sodium fluoride is a sterilant and a cancer-causing agent of the highest magnitude.

    You choose to believe everything's going to be alright in the economy.

    You choose to believe Iraq had WMDs.

    You choose, willfully, to be fools.

  • @RomeoMD25

    Well you see the first two things aren't a matter of belief, but a matter of fact.

  • @RomeoMD25 The only effect that sodium fluoride has in the low levels it is added to water us dental fluorosis.

    As for climate change? If you're so certain it doesn't exist, why don't you disprove it, since you seem to think years of data and a global scientific consensus is wrong. And in doing so, you need to disprove ALL of it.

  • Religious crazy man.

  • LOL, I would rather BELIEVE Glenn Beck than Media Matters. However I trust NO American mass media, including Glenn, or MM. At least Glenn is telling you to trust no one. Do your own research.

  • So most people think Beck is crazy. But they cannot come up with one single fact that will debunk his fact or conclusions. Propaganda proponents all do the same thing. If you can't debunk the message, then debunk the messenger.

  • @mickeysears

    Beck looks like he has a death wish. He is going up against the most powerful people imaginable. If we were back in the 60s and he did this he would be at the bottom of a large lake or the ocean wearing concrete shoes. It is not rational to go after all this grief, ... Maybe he is truly a Patriot, afraid for his country, like he says. Whatever the motivation he has provided us with some ammo to be used prudentially re Obama and fellow travelers.

  • @mickeysears I mostly agree with what you said about Beck. But he does support VAT , and I've heard (not verified for myself) that he wants to limit internet freedom. This makes me wonder if he, and Alex Jones (yes I know they are enemies) are trying to push their own agendas. Yes, both bring lots of truth and are great informers, but it seems both like to exaggerate claims as well.

  • Yes Glenn, and you connecting things that no one else seems to be able to find a connection in, into one massive conspiracy theory, is much more likely then you just being bat shit insane, right?

  • This guy is nuts. Even if he was right about these things, the way he chooses to deliver the information only serves to scare people away.

  • Goldman Sachs spent more money lobbying for the carbon tax than they spent lobbying against banking reform. They expect to make a? trillion dollars in 10 years off the energy derivatives market which will be the next bubble

    to pop and destroy our economy beyond repair. It does not matter what the original idea behind the carbon tax was the reality is it will be a disaster.

  • The entire US financial system is based off of HOT AIR!! The dollar is a fiat currency. Its not real money! REAL MONEY IS GOLD AND SILVER! The Constitution even says that were not supposed to use anything but gold and silver coin as money. The dollar currently isnt even backed by gold or silver like it used to be, not since 1971. The US Dollar is backed by IOUs, by debt.

  • Working for Murdoch is proof of your integrity? Have you ever seen the tabloids that Murdoch owns in Britain?

  • @Elmoresnooze They are disgusting. bearly legal teens on page 3 with their tits out followed by a crusade on pedophillia on page 4.

  • mr. murdoch owns fox news

    murdoch owns many news papers in the usa and uk

    murdoch is not an American

    murdoch is not British

    murdoch it seems, works hard at political manipulation and undermining governments and political parties that do not agree with murdoch and the ones he does not agree with in the usa and uk...

    murdoch seems to act like a true red commie dictator ....

  • Lots of Glenn Beck seems pretty boring to me. It is like he is reaching to get more information sometimes. His faith, hope and charity is kind of lame I think. His "founders" references, many of them, are also lame and boring to me. But, I haven't seen anyone refute any of the information he has put out about Obama and his colleagues and the czars.

  • @TAMARLANE this man is paranoid he presents no verifiable facts only insane conspirisy theorys but i suspect if u or any one else could prove factualy too him that he was wrong he would think you were part of the conspirisy. he is mentaly damaged

  • Exxon chief executive Rex Tillerson

    firmly expressed Exxons support for climate change

    alarmists in stating, I firmly

    believe it is not too late for Congress to consider

    a carbon tax as the better policy approach for addressing the risks of climate change.

  • First thing out of Glenns mouth was 100% true. "IM NOT THAT SMART OF A GUY"

    replace GUY with GIRL and get Sarah Palin to say it next and you will have coverd both idiots in one line.

  • Interesting. The same people that don't trust our government are the same people who didn't understand why the Iraqis didn't trust our government. Time to put them in FEMA camps.

  • stupid americans like to see shit on TV.

  • Love it. Fox News deserves him. The whole network should be taken down.

  • Glenn Beck should go back to his day job: Drinking.

  • I have my tin foil hat

  • Beck take your black boards and go fuck yourself. You are a hate spreader and fear mongerer and yes, Murduch would have a piece of shit like you on air since you push the political agenda favoring the rich and fucking everyone else. You spread lies to keep everyone on your side and seem hellbent on keeping the country divided and doomed. And that overly dramatic way you act is more irritating than funny or amusing. You suck...fuck you you stupid "socialist" screaming piece of shit.

  • @TreyParkersBitch LMFAO!! Tell us how you really feel. Still laughing.

  • @TreyParkersBitch  thumbs up for your post and I wish I could give another for your username :)

  • Thanks so much for exposing this fascist upstart.

  • This guy is crazy. Fox is the only network something like this would go on.

  • on another topic.

    is faux-news reporting on the election in hungary soon or did they by now?

    the site didn`t mention anything on that matter those very days and a week afterwards.

  • SOB cries too fuckin' much!

  • Notice the photo of mediamatters' benefactor, George Soros, at 00:40. ;-)

  • @patsagainstBrains,better soros then murdoch

  • People are getting wise to you Glenn Beck, or maybe your audience is slowly dying off. Either way I have a feeling you won't be around too much longer unless you drastically overhaul your show. It saddens me to hear people take your opinions and ideas and make it their own without a second thought. My fav though, is your incessant calls for an old fin. system (1920s) as a fix for today's problems. The world is completely different as are mrkts. Yesterday's solution cannot fix tomorrow's problem.

  • hes so fucked lol

  • April '10 Ratings: Fox News Hits 100 Months at #1

  • @hydin1 which proves the idiocy of the general US public. thanks for pointing that out though.

  • "The O'Reilly Factor," "Glenn Beck," and "Hannity" were the top three programs, respectively in cable news. "O'Reilly" averaged 2.99M total viewers (765K demo), "Beck" averaged 2.12M total viewers (577K demo), and "Hannity" averaged 2.07M total viewers (537K demo).

  • @hydin1 and your point is what, that right-wingers are clueless and tasteless??

  • So that's good ...I guess - FOX news is making money entertaining people.

    Now ask yourself - Who exactly is watching? What is the demographic comprised of?

    I mean, 2.99 million is hardly all Americans - it's 1%. And your stats also don't say how many are repeat viewers

    Lawrence Welk was the top music / dance show for decades - but what was the demographic?

    ...Or do you belief this question to be irrelevant?

  • @BeondaPale,rednecks and racists no doubt

  • @BeondaPale

    Those, my friend, are exactly who the people vote in the midterm elections. Meanwhile, the blacks, who are Obama's most ardent supporters, sit on their hands during the off-years. Now you why the Democrats, with the help of the libtard media, are trying to stir them up with racial hoaxes. This will cynical strategy will ultimately fail, as you can't significantly alter people's voting habits.

    Look for a CRUSHING defeat for Democrats in November.

  • Not really an answer to my questions, and I wasn't talking to you, but thanks for sharing

  • god i cant wait for this drunk to lose his show and drink himself to death. It'll benfit all of humanity when he is worm food

  • Is Obama a socialist? its a simple question. Does it matter? We all know he is, and being a socialist why doesn't he just proclaim his intentions and lead us into the future. Why hide and claim he isn't a socialist, loving democracy as he does, let the people decide. The worm has turned and your time (progressives) nears it's end.

  • @hydin1 I'll tell you exactly why Obama could never say those things. Political suicide. People use the words "socialist" and "communist" so loosely. Anyone thinking our capitalist system wasn't in need of a serious overhaul has no clue what is really going on. No economic theory accounts for human corruptibility and ethics. Unfortunately, we have a lot of corrupt douches making massive profits off of exploitive and shady business practice.

  • @hydin1 you wouldn't know a socialist if one hit you over the head. US politics are so far bent to the right of the political spectrum that your 'liberals' in any other democracy around the world would be a considered a conservative. of course, people like you are so steeped in thier own american mythology that the rest of the world doesn't amount to a hill of beans does it? I mean...go ahead, tell me you don't care about the rest of the world because that's what you're going to say isn't it?

  • @HugeJohn51 Although I resent your disparaging the US society as if it were even remotely rational to think that we are dumber than any other nation on Earth, what you said about our politics being too bent to the right and our liberals being well on the right end of the spectrum by global standards is absolutely true.
