Phil Musser on Seeing the Face of Terror

[MACKATTACK1970]

This man is a moron of the highest order.

.

He can tell by looking at people if they are criminals or not, what a fucking BUFFOON!

.

I can't tell you how much I wish this piece of shit would find himself in a foreign country in jail and have someone from that country come to his jail cell and by looking into his eyes make the determination that he is a threat and have him shot to death.

.

If anything the collective IQ of the world would increase with his demise.

[Wiseone75115]

""Has everyone forgotten about 9/11? They didn't keep us safe then, even after warnings.""

Nor did the Clinton Administration keep us safe after the warnings either. For there were warnings long before the Bush Administration.

[taoofmichael]

Who was president on September 11, 2001?

Who was the National Security Advisor? Her job?

NATIONAL SECURITY.

Did any of them ever apologize for fucking up on National Security?

[neo4251]

I CAN SEE GUILT!

[wntoply6]

those goddamned "christian"republicans led this country down the wrong path for the last 14 yrs.

the fact they can't own up to what this country & the world knows for fact is further confirmation those bastards should be kept from power until they reorganize & realize the national (except for stupid southern bubbas) & international population is sick of their bullshit.

my question is why can't they understand something as simple as that!

this is not a partisan statement, damn it, it's fact.

[Hereticbooks]

"The Bush and Cheney administration kept us safe..."

WTF? Has everyone forgotten about 9/11? They didn't keep us safe then, even after warnings.

[wntoply6]

yeah hereticbooks, who the hell knows if they kept us safe!

based on their continuous lies during 8 yrs of their rule (and yes i mean rule. bush himself said, paraphrasing, if this were a dictatorship it would be easier, as long as i'm the dictator) they lied for political reasons, more specifically to get re-elected. let's see how much they really kept us safe!

it was only assuredly pure luck.

i don't believe their bull any more than i believe bush when he said this country doesn't torture.

[CynicalSavior]

He said "post 9/11".

Before that, they didn't give a shit about keeping us safe.

[LordoftheKeyboard]

LOL! listen to phil stutter at 0:38. What's with those neo cons and stuttering?..........o0 During their Bush administration they were running their big mouths on the world via the media big time. Now they stutter like freaking idiots. I find their lack of faith disturbing.

[uforeader]

Lawrence destroys everyone he takes on. Love it.

[sachaput]

So he saw these guys in prison coveralls, behind barbed wire and possibly hooded and shackled, but he knew they were guilty and/or a danger. Boy, I'm glad he is in Washington helping the GOP form policy!

I drove by a police officer giving somebody a ticket this morning. I could tell the driver was guilty of something and glad he was off the road. I felt safer for the rest of my commute.

[Keithjustinburton]

What a fool.

[brukins]

Dude looks like he was about cry!

[Bosco239]

PWNED that Bitch!

[DillonX]

*** Representative, we're so glad you're helping us by touring our jail today. What do you think of the black prisoner in cell 1?

****Oh, he's guilty.

****And what about the Hispanic in cell 2?

****Guilty, too!

****And what about the White guy in cell 3?

****Oh, he's innocent.

****Thank you representative you helping us determine who's guilty & who is not. You are a genius!

[basakanon2009]

that guy just got tea baged

[3star2nr]

I fucking LOVE lawrence

[technicschic]

Bye Bye Phil Musser - guess we won't be seeing you on tv much anymore. Don't let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya on your way out.

[boots920]

Doesn't matter the government just makes up the rule of law as they go. That's why the country is in peril.

[Mychaels]

Canada sucks. Complains without any help. WE FLOAT YOUR ECONOMY SO YOU CAN EAT!!

[boots920]

Not only Canada but the rest of the free world. The US dollar is world reserve, so when it takes a value hit so does our currency. That's why I'm into gold and silver , the idiots in charge are counterfeiting the value of the "paper" money into oblivion.

[g00dsir555]

fuck that guy

[milkgodnl]

Boy, did she bitch slap that dismal republican tool.

[MojoJuana]

who is this dumb fuck sucking on cheney's shriveled old cock?

dan quale jr.?

[grlykool]

ho would Jesus water-board? When cutting genitals, would Jesus use an exactor knife or a razor blade?

We call our selves a "Christian" nation, that's why Yoo gave Bush the right to molest and crush a child's genitals (in front of their parents). Read the memo. A Canadian, and a Brit are now suing us for using the knife on their genitals (they were innocent people).

I wonder when the voices of the dead children will speak, I'm sure there were some, bc Bush used every other power Yoo gave

[Mychaels]

I do not want to know what Bush did to these poor people. They are not all the enemy. It is sad to think that the world thinks we all behave this way. We can never pay these people back for their losses. I hope someday we can do something.

[grlykool]

Can pay them back but one totally innocent Canadian dude is suing us for 10 million. We were also keeping a 13 year-old Canadian (his dad was Taliban - I think - but his mom was not, his dad basically kidnapped him). Wait till the bodies show up.

[grlykool]

Sigh, the devil comes to steal, kill, and destroy. Tell me what didi the Bushies do?

[Ducky1987]

The anchor did a good job calling him on it; O'Donnell did a great job expanding on just why his little slip was so telling.

[sugarpuddin88]

Gimme a Break!

Obama will push the center over to the attorneys who wrote briefs - Which will over time, easily allow him to find cause to dump any investigation!

Martha Stewart & Lil Kim were jailed for lying, but no Politician nor Corp elite will be tried

Waxman, Kucinich & Rahm Emanuel doesn't make a difference; and everybody but the American sheeple know it!

America is a socialist country for corporations and Americans are ignorant sheeple who get the Government they deserve!

[prognost]

Stop spreading this nonsense.

[sugarpuddin88]

prognost

I can tell you were educated by the Rockefeller & Dewey socialist Federal Education system

Because you are unable to formulate or articulate any specific debate parameters

The only thing Americans know how do to is drop bombs - Now they have the bankrupt government they deserve!

[prognost]

Let me focus my argument then. I agree with you that the United States is probably the worst of the industrialized countries when it comes to prosecuting those in power. I also agree that recent policies have had a flair of lemon socialism. What I don't agree with is that there is any reason to believe that Obama doesn't want investigations to happen. I gave you my reasons for thinking so on the other video. Why do you think Obama's SHIFTING the blame on to the lawyers? It's always been there.

[sugarpuddin88]

Obama last week had one of his talking heads say he wasn't going to prosecute; & in his own words, "..nothing will be gained by spending out time & energy laying blame for the past"

However, with more revelations & public dissent, he had to back-peddle

If he wanted to make right, he would prosecute from the TOP down - Blaming only the lawyers allows compartmentalization of the issue away from top & room for legal wrangling to dump the issue

[dogstar7]

"America is a socialist country for corporations..."

By definition that would be a fascism.

Look up Mussolini on the subject.

"...and Americans are ignorant sheeple who get the Government they deserve!"

This is just a gratuitous insult.

The use of the term "sheeple" indicates

a certain Internet flame board culture at work.

[sugarpuddin88]

As I said before, according to Mussolini, today's America is a fascist government

Max Kaiser made a good case for this last week - Pick it up on YouTube video

Personally, I feel you could call America a lot of things, (eg a Plutocracy since 98% of its Congress is made up of Incumbents); but you could never call it a Democratic Republic

The last good battle over control of the FED took place around 1934 when the Corps & Bankers fought it out, (Gen Butler)

What "exactly" would YOU call it?

[dogstar7]

Regional Oligarchy comes to mind.

Nod to the Smedley reference.

[MidnightChimes]

These Republicans are quite good at looking into people's eyes and seeing their souls.

[baddmanaz]

oh... for a moment there i thot u wrote "the republicans are quite good looking..."

:P

[TedinLasVegas]

Typical liberal ploy; ask an inane question and when the GOPer doesn't give the answer the lib wants, beat up on the GOPer for answering truthfully or, in this case, not answering a question based on a false pretense.

I can do it too!!!

Hey, Mr. O'Donnell, did you beat your wife this morning or did you stop doing that?

Dude didn't say that he knew anyone was guilty of anything, except that they proved their desire to destroy us. If you'd been there, you would've seen it too.

[SpitfireOFatj]

Yeah,....they looked guilty because they weren't well scrubbed White Males like him....

I swear, if Republicans get any whiter they'll start evolving into cave fish,....this is why they've become blind to the world around them....

[sugarpuddin88]

History & Science prove the only legitimate information does not come from torture; In fact, an al Qaeda member confessed to al-Qaeda's Deputy Operations Chief Ayman al-Zawahiri location specifically because his captors were decent & fair

Moreover, heads of DOD make case people joined against America simply because of their indecent atrocities at Gitmo; and, that just as many Americans have died as a direct result of those atrocities at Gitmo as have died in the WTC towers!

[SpitfireOFatj]

According to Bush they hate us because we can buy a home.

He left out all that "getting foreclosed on it" stuff...

[ArkeAngelRevonulet]

Lets get reaaaddyyyyy to Ruumbbblllllleee! Gettum O'Donnel!!

[ushadrons]

Mr. O'Donnell exposed this guy for the idiot he is. The simplistic clap trap that these Republicans talk is laughable. Mr. Musser should look in a mirror, then he will truley be facing the face of terror. His party has, since 9/11, used fear and terror everyday to trick and intimidate the Ameican people. Words can not express the contempt I have for these simple minded fools.

[TiTSxxMcGEE]

that was the best beat down i've seen in a long time.

the core of what he was trying to point out was totally on the money.

My gut feeling tells me to give this vid five out of five stars

[ushadrons]

Republicans are a bunch of ignorant malcontents, who can be worked into a frenzy about anything. They simply can't live with the reality that they lost the election so badly. Their desperation has lead them to look increasingly insane. Their divorce from reality and retreat into the political netherland of subjective hate and fear, runs counter to the direction of the conciousness of our country. These Palinesque optics will lead them to a major defeat in 2010 and 2012. Life is beautiful.

[ushadrons]

The law is the law. The law does not care about parties. The Attorney General must follow his job description, investigate and prosecute where crimes are found. The congress must follow it's job description and do the same. We must affirm to ouselves and show the rest of the world we are a nation of laws.

[masterdude787]

this guy Lawerance, washed Phill LMAO

[leitermann]

"...father of a child star in the oscar-winning film 'slumdog millionaire' tried to sell his daughter" on the scroll, kind of wierd.

[CaramelAnt]

Being called on their ham fisted attempt at melodrama is not something someone in Musser's line of work is used to.

[PersonalJesus348]

FINALLY TRIALS!

[Bigaphid]

Awesome, especially the part of "c'mon, thats not fair". I'm waiting for Bush to get the same call out.

More critical thinking, please.

[CGrunzdizshitz]

thats being racist. people getting put in jail for stuff about being racist all the time. you should put george bush n his possy in jail because based on what they guy said they are profiling.

[jackspicerisland]

1:49

Not only "Deer-in-the-Headlights" but "Punch-drunk-and-Stuporous-Dee­r-in-the-Headlights."

WOW!

[Felix1049]

No true American agrees with that Rep strategist moron. These people are seriously deranged.

[madebutante]

What Racism? Were there any white guys at GITMO? What about all the guys turned in for the Bounty Money only? American Justice - still an oxymoron.

[hellshade2]

this musser guy must have an extensive library of books he's only read the cover of....

[Skorz3ny]

...and he could tell the message contained in the book by just reading the cover

[pakratmak]

Was Phil resonsible for their digitless budget proposal as well?

[Steadno]

phill is a fucking idiot!

[marniespeaks]

Bullshit much Phil?

[Peacenik]

wow... destroyed him

[thethomasshowextra]

I know if i was taken put in to a prison camp and then turtued i'd be your emeny alright especialy if i were innocent you wallies how the hell are you gonna stop this thing by creating the problem by torturing people in any way and you say your into human rights ? i'm sorry but illegaly detain & torture me & i will not be your friend torture anywhere or anybody is torture everywhere on everybody there must be a clear line between being humane or not

[FoShizzle951]

Musser is going to cry himself to sleep tonight.

[dogstar7]

O'Donnell is taking it to these dumb-ass Torture Defenders.

If the GOP wants to defend Torture, I say let them:

"Vote Democratic of Vote for Torture"

Works for me.

[intarwebzz]

norah is so hot when she's sassy.

[SubmarinerAndroid]

I was hoping Laurence O'Donnell would get a show, he'd be so much better than Ed Schultz

[volumedealer1]

Motherfucker got owned and tried to spin his way out.

[wojiaojj]

oh no! dark skinned people!

[JerezJulio]

I say Phil Musser kicked himself in the ass.

[fiddlerthh]

GOPwnt.

[LeGioNoFZioN]

amateurish reporting to be sure.

[dogstar7]

"amateurish reporting" WTF???

You just took O'Donnell's charge against Musser and clumsily attempted to turn it on the reporter. Lame.

Nothing amateurish about the reporting here.

O'Donnell cited his sources and supported his thesis. Musser simply claimed he could "look in the eyes of terror" without explaining his meaning.

Amazing you could even claim the opposite. Says something about the level of argument coming from torture defenders.

[LeGioNoFZioN]

it was clearly amateurish. (I don't blame you for not knowing, America doesn't have many good journalists) A good reporter would have given the man enough rope to hang himself with instead of injecting with their thoughts on what he hadn't even just finished saying. this could have been a damning video instead it's a "what not to do" video for aspiring journos

[agl125]

O'Donnell isn't a "good reporter" OR a bad reporter, because he's not a reporter at all. He's a political commentator, like Pat Buchanan or Al Franken. Expressing his opinion is what he gets paid to do.

[LeGioNoFZioN]

I was insulting Nora not Lawrence, see my reply to dogstar below

[dogstar7]

Lawrence O'Donnell was Democratic Chief of Staff of the United States Senate Committee on Finance from 1993 through 1995. In 1992, he was Chief of Staff of the United States Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works.

So no, he's not a "journalist" (I don't blame you for not knowing...but it took me two minutes to look it up)

It doesn't seem that you have a clear example to prove your claim, just a partisan point of view.

[LeGioNoFZioN]

I was thinking Nora not O'donnell. It clearly stated Lawrence was an analyst, like I am. It was Nora I was criticising, but then again this is an edited version of the video so maybe it didn't quite play out that way on the air

[robhagle]

Damn, O'Donnell just kicked his ass.

It's about time we get serious about this.

The torture will not go unpunished, as long as we keep talking about it and never let it go we will bring those bastards to justice.

[WKaliberr]

My penis is the face of terror

[DavesMx6]

lol that was funny. thumbs up

[phillydawg]

What a loser.
