Rachel Maddow Show: War Crimes

[210daved1]

why aren't theses people in jail?impeach clinton for lying about sex but bush commits war crimes and more and nothing?

[DarkAngel0125]

This makes me sick. When did members of the cabinet first decide that they had the right to negotiate torture? It shouldn't even be discussed. It's illegal, PERIOD.

[centurion180ad]

This video is, exactly correct.

[chucknchar]

Tortue? How about lying us into a trillion dollar war in Irag in which 4200 Americans died for oil> Where are the tea baggers? How about justice for the 4200?

[DarkAngel0125]

@chucknchar

How about justice for all of them? How about leaving the tea baggers out of this, because it wasn't the tea baggers who caused this problem, it was the Bush administration.

[chucknchar]

@DarkAngel0125 It was Bush supporters/tea baggers (they are the same) who enabled the Bush regime all the way.

[cymonebreathe]

"Because they were always getting back the information that they wanted to hear." Sent chills through me. 

[2558465]

Why is this Lezbo on TV ??

Is her Dad a Boss at

National Barrack Channel ??

I dont know anyone who has her ignorant ass views....Would love to slap her IGNORANTT smirking ass...I could cure her in 3 seconds....

[Pilgrim812]

She's on TV because she's brilliant

and capable, She is not however an ignorant, bigoted turd like yourself.

[2558465]

Fuck you very much Faggott

[DarkAngel0125]

@2558465

Are you kidding? First you say you don't know anyone with her views, and then you call HER ignorant?

[william0873]

I just wish she would cover Obama's continued torture policies at Bagram air base and his continuation of the patriot act including asking for an extension in Jan of 2010, or his support of nafta all three of which breaks campaign promises not to mention laws

[centurion180ad]

America (my country) repudiated the Hague & Geneva Conventions IN FACT, during the Vietnam Conflict.

Part of the BIG LIE, is that America honestly adheres to its Constitution and LAW.

America is wildly LAWLESS, ruled in a despotism by a legal society beholden to the Debt Syndicate.

America because of Debt Syndicate despotism, tortures, mass murders and commits EVERY Crime Against Humanity that is written down BY DESIGN.

[JBondski]

Rachel Madcow.... does MS&MBC know how many viewers they have lost due to this Marxist, lying byatch? Do they care? When they are down to 2 viewers (one of Dobermann's hookers and one of Larry O'Dumbel retarded kids), BHO will bail 'em out, right?

[HoRostam]

@JBondski its all true, deal with it. whats she is saying is completely uncontroversial 

[yellowwing]

Blessed are the Torturers?

[genusrightwingus]

torture terrorist? really?

your ignorance is the problem.

Ever notice what happens when terrorists

try that crap on Russian soil?

Russians do not play patty cake wih them!

therefore they leave RUSKY'S alone!

[exbronco1980]

here it is, november of 09, and no one has been prosecuted for torture or violating the constitution. nobody is gonna be prosecuted either.

[stgianna]

"... the term "democrat" originated as an epithet and referred to 'one who panders to the crude and mindless whims of the masses." (Joseph Ellis - "Founding Brothers: The Revolutionary Generation").

[mostecri]

oh man the far right rasist homophobic rebiblitards must be hating life. a black man in the white house and a lesbian reporting the news.

[cjw62]

what did your dad do to you to make you want to be a douche?

[padude64]

Bigots will burn in hell first before gays do so shut the hell up bigots

[StillNotDeadNL]

Better shut your rut, padude

[padude64]

I am not shutting up because our troops were killed in the wrong war and you and your buddy Limbballs knows it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[gurthyman]

this bitch might be the most clueless rugmuncher in the world. Her and Keith Olbermann should reproduce so that the scumbag baby could be like a messiah to all assholes who think that those two speak anything but tre-hugging communist propaganda.

[dgonch]

Feeling a bit homophobic lately? Angry at people who want to protect the environment? Reading nothing but the Good Book? Waiting for Jesus' arrival? All is going to be okay. Just take your medicine.

[gurthyman]

Feeling a bit homosexual? Angry at those who arent tree-huggers? Reading nothing but Marx? Waiting for your arrival to Hell? It won't be okay. Just take your all-natural potion.

[Henri00]

Hey man, look in the mirror...you are the one who is bigoted, sexist and angry. It's your life you are throwing away by choosing to be this way.  Isn't it Jesus who said something about casting the first stone? Clean up your side of the street and the world will be a much better place.

[Henri00]

My comments were directed at gurthyman, btw...

[4u2b1ib12]

You can not get a girl! That is easy for everyone to see. Get a passport, fly to Germany, get on the train to Frankfurt, change your cash into Deutch-mark, exit the train station, there is a road called Kaiser-strasse. Walk down that street, strasse, and on the left for 4 blocks, there are whore houses. I mean a bunch of them. All sorts of women. For forty dollars, American, you can have sex with a woman that pays taxes to the German government. It is all legal. So get off your fears. Go!

[lohrtom]

Good luck getting Deutsch Marks in Germany. They converted to the Euro in 2000.

[4u2b1ib12]

Thanks, I had not kept up. I was in Europe, 1974-1978.

[lou737]

Rachel Maddow is so full of hate. Becuase nature played a trick on her. Should have been a man in a female body. Now she talks only hate. Poor thing and I mean thing. When the power of love rules over the love of power there will be no more hate. Jimi hendrix..........

[Puncle]

Hate?

Dude, you're the one filled with hate - read your post. She is funny and smart and charming. What is your problem? Feeling threatened?

The only trick being played here is the one going on in your own mind. And that is your problem. I honestly feel sorry for you.

[RadarGuidedVermin]

This bimbo has the intellect of a Garbanzo bean.

[Desireex0x0]

lock em up and throw away the key ! i say we charge em with murder for every woman and man that lost their lives in the war they fought for no other reason than to make money and take away our liberties(patriot act) ! ! ! ! and this does not exclude our last president. Morals people. preservation of life ! ! ! equality peace and justice!

[VAkraut]

Aren't you glad we can find people to do the "dirty work?" It's easy to sit back and cast judgment on Bush and the people who had to sit in that stench of Gitmo. Just like I'm sure there isn't a line for people to be trash collectors. But it needs to get done now doesn't it.

[VAkraut]

Where can I get transcripts of the RM show? I started watching, then she said President Obama, and the rest was inaudible. All you could hear was a gargling sound.

[argentoki]

Are you kidding me torture, ha, the Muslin capture an American and they cut his head off on video and we pour a little water on their towelheads and you dare to call this torture? Rachel is a F$%^^ stupid lesbo Nazi moron how did see ever get her own show,PS is she really a Tranny?

[MudShShShaark]

"Rachel is a stupid lesbo Nazi moron" She's hardly stupid. She wasa Rhodes Scholar. They don't just hand those out. She is a lesbo, so what? Do you know what a "Nazi" is? My father fought in a war against them which I've always been proud of. One of the things that makes Nazis evil is that they have no regard for human life or suffering and would use torture. In WWII the US refused to use torture because we didn't want to be like the evil we were fighting.

[melissabrianne]

1. Rachel is very intelligent; I don't see your comments getting you a national news show.

2. Just because we don't commit crimes that terrorists who have no concern for international law, does not mean that we don't torture.

3. You are ignorant.

Peace.

[yakkayekkimrpuss]

you, are, the, stupidest, person, i, have, ever, FUCKING MET! try contributing to the conversation, instead of trying to be cool by putting down a highly inteligent person just to make your dumb fuck ass look smarter. die.

[1000Demons]

Condoleeza Rice is culpable, as is the whole Bush government.

Torture of innocents is the crime, well, the punishment should fit the crime and, thus, the punishment's obvious, right?

[alexforever411]

Maddow Man doesn't care about 'innocents'. You go down there and help people who were hurt by a car bomb. That 'torture' probably isn't nearly as bad as what they intended to do to others like you or me.

[flyboymd82]

Rachel is a tranny. Check out that adams apple! Hmmmmm........... Nasty pig!

[giannireb68]

I guess you prefer that hot, sexy Ann Coulter--80 lbs of vile, smug hate-think topped with a $ 1200 dye-job (so in touch with the ordinary American...) Oh and her adams apple is much bigger then Rachels.

[giannireb68]

But somebody like Ann doesn't date rednecks. Even if you buy her books.

[flyboymd82]

What you talking about? I've dated Ann! LOL! She's a Goddess compared to this tranny. And she's right too.

[giannireb68]

You, Geraldo Rivera, and Bob Guccione Jr. Stellar company.

[Adagio2424]

i guess you do like "trannys" as you say if you think ann coulter is a goddess

[Minister1515]

Bush screwed America. Bush let 9/11 happen. Lies and spins got us into unnecessary war. America slaughtered and massacred thousands of Native Americans...so knock it off. 15 of 19 hijackers were Saudi...why not war with Saudi Arabia. Right after 9/11...23 of the Bin Liden family members left the USA w/ no interrogation. No question was asked. ...now Obsama remains at large!!! F**k Bush and his administration!!!!

[alexforever411]

Maddow and his terrorist allies did 9/11. Maddow Man doesn't care about them or us the other infidels. Have he Maddow dissed the terrorist regimes killing each others or the honor killings. That Maddow Man is a terrorist loving ho!

[Minister1515]

Call the international court out!!!

I smell a war crime trial of the century!

[padude64]

WHat if IM gay fuck you!

[widgit007]

Rachel Maddow is the thinking persons crumpet.

[mericano08]

i she a guy or is he a she .what is it .only nbc would put these kind of anti american scum on thier network.i know what the ms stands for in front of nbc.most stupid.

hey maddow the kremlin would love to have people like you over there,do us a favor take the other communist olbermann with you.GOD BLESS AMERICA.

[rickji2]

mericano08 is an idiot

[Mahoivlich]

no doubt a cousin f'kn hillbilly. but don't argue with him he has his grade 5.

[Adagio2424]

you are a dumb fuck

[forgetititititit]

"you are a dumb fuck "

From someone who lists language as one of the things he/she lives for, I would have thought you could have crafted a more cogent reply.

[Adagio2424]

the reason that was my responce is because one can not try to reason with a dumb fuck like you its a lost cause so instead i chose to make an observation

[flyboymd82]

You "live for language" yet cannot even spell, capitalize or use proper grammer and punctuation and you call OTHER people "dumb fucks"??? LOL!

Another ignorant, uneducated, elitist libtard who thinks they are somehow intelligent(maybe b/c we went to College??)The greatest rip off in America!!

So sad!! I think Ann is just a tidy bit more intelligent than you and the tranny Rachael combined!! LOL!

You should be waterboarded~! Just for fun!

[Adagio2424]

i find it amusing that you have an issue with a response that was not directed to you and that you continue to communicate with me and comment on the fact that i love languages, how many languages can you speak and when did having an education become a bad thing and regarding anne coulter,you think my grammer is bad at least i write my own thoughts unlike that ignorant plagiarizing idiot and if you looked things up for yourself something us dumb educated people can do you would realize that.

[forgetititititit]

"the reason that was my responce is because one can not try to reason with a dumb fuck like you its a lost cause so instead i chose to make an observation "

Your reasoning gets more cogent by the expletive.

[mgilbo1]

One thing to remember and remember forever, all these people in this administration and those who support them are people of the Christian Faith. They hide behind their god while using anything possible, no matter how sick, to kill innocent people. These people are mentally ill.

[geneww]

Maddow is a liar, the report from Rice did not say there was discussions of how to torture people, the discussion was to the effect that the parties wanted to know that the methods used by the CIA and DOD were legal. Simply because Sen Levin thinks that playing loud music is torture does not make it so and if it is let's start arresting these hip-hop artist that are polluting the airwaves. Maddow is a socialist/communist and her main agenda is to slam the USA.

[bluegrrl70]

genew, i don't think maddow slams the US. she mostly slams republicans.

i haven't seen anything that would support believing she is a socialist or a communist, either.

[mmante]

In September 1990, Charles Keating was criminally charged with having duped Lincoln's customers into buying worthless junk bonds of American Continental Corporation; he was convicted in state court in 1992 of fraud, racketeering, and conspiracy and received a 10 year prison sentence. In January 1993, a federal conviction followed, with a 12 and a half year sentence. He spent four and a half years in prison.

[superc]

Condoleeza Rice has admitted to the Congress in writing that Cabinet members discussed in the White House how to torture people.

[jc2342]

I didn't say she hadn't. I just said I'd waterboard Rachel Maddow. Not that she has any valuable information to give, under coercion or otherwise.

[rickji2]

idiot

[Scott25126]

I agree with you

[razzer70]

Focus on the important things...sexual orientation is the least of our problems

[glitteringdamsel2000]

rachael maddow is a veryyyyyy beautiful woman

[benfromvegas]

Do ya think maybe she's gay?

No makeup, no earrings. Not judgemental here I don't care... but usually it dominates the political agenda of a person who is....am I wrong or is that always the case??? This is the conservative hate network?...Can we all just get along?? God Bless Zell Miller - the last great Democrat - Nancy Pelosi is an idiot.

[rriqueno]

Talk about hate!!

[Andreaseye]

You claim no judgment, yet your email reeks of judgment. Maddow is one of the best political commentators out there right now, period. Whether or not she wears earrings, makeup, etc, is irrevelant, and your coment that being gay usually dominates the political agenda of a person who is shows only ignorance on your part.

[djshiva]

i hate to even dignify this with a response, but really...c'mon. as if being gay means the only thing you care about in the whole wide world is being gay. that's ridiculous. if you actually took the time to watch rachel's show, you would see that she cares very much about the same political issues we all do. the fact that, yes, she is gay, is merely a part of her interests, but not the dominant one.

[bluegrrl70]

benfromvegas...so what if she's gay? she can't have an opinion on politics??

homophobia also tends to "dominate the political agenda of a person" who is a homophobe, as well. your point?

[morse03]

So, We have an admittance that our political leaders got together to determine "what would be considered" torture. Uh, Go You Guys! This amount of spin is disgusting, no records cited, because it would destroy a good "lead-in"? MSNBC is the least respectable news source in America, as the ratings prove. Why do you continue with a failed... (should I say it?) policy! these are the people that prove "journalism is dead" and that "the dumb follow the loudest".

I pray for you Rachel.

[djshiva]

one would think that the fact that the administration actually DID engage in torture would be more appalling to you than how rachel chose to talk about it.

*sigh*

[superc]

I don't pray for you.

[animestuct]

cool man

[pmore72]

Looking forward to seeing this great documentary. Rachel Maddow makes very good points.

Thank you.

[jackalackacrud]

Dick-N-Bush

BFF

I hope they get viruses

[latentsun]

presidents puts shadows over what the administration is really doing.

[rudy4histo]

Great video.

[SpitfireOFatj]

Torture doesn't provide actual information.

Torture provides false confessions.

One has to ask what was the main confession they were trying to get and it keeps coming back to an attempt to get these prisoners to say that they were members of al Qaeda.

This leads one to realize that this worldwide terrorist organization called al Qaeda doesn't even exist.

[primal111]

it does but not how they paint it they use it to scare people and take your rights away...

[Lissabon]

I guess americans just have to accept that some people, like the bush-administration, are above the law and can get away with almost anything..

[Post4now]

Were almost out of the woods with this administration. If McCain gets into the Whitehouse, you can bet that the people, who dont BELIEVE in torture, will be going off to PATRIOTIC CONCENTRATION camps to be re-educated.

[LeoKinoske]

Why aren't ANY of the Bush Administration members getting in trouble for this?

[klugyboy]

Because they think are above the law.

And while they wrap themselves in the flag and wave giant red white and blue "We're #1" styrofoam fingers aroung, they take regular dumps on the Constitution.

Look at Palin's husband. As soon as the wife is on the presidential ticket, he doesn't have to respect a subpoena.

[UGOTDAJACK]

I can't believe that ugly bucked toothed bitch had the nerve to rant and rave about Russia after her involvement in something so evil. The entire Bush administration should be tried for war crimes!

[mrburningone]

I wouldn't worry much about this racist nazi hack MuslimCommunistObama...we helped him get his other account MarxistObama suspended and this one will be no different.

Here's another account name idea for you when you come back again:

ITakeItUpDaButtFromNazis.

[AllySmells001]

Holy hell, that was so funny! Why did this MuslimCommunistObama's account get suspended anyway?

[mrburningone]

Just goes around preaching hate toward minorities and never really discusses the current issues without inflecting some form of racism.

I mean, even all the YT white supremists and KKK and neonazis keep to their own and don't go as far as this guy.

[frepi]

I must point out to you that the people applying communist measures right now are the republicans who want to bailout the bankrupt banks of Wall Street. Let the gouvernment put money to help the private industry. So the communists now are Bush and Paulson (who made around 160 000 000 $ on his last year as CEO of Goldman Sachs).

[AllySmells001]

"MuslimCommunistObama" is referring to a YouTube Screen name. I'm very fond of Obama, and btw, will be rooting for him in the debates TODAY.

[xdir]

EDUCATED Middle-Class White Americans love Obama, uneducated hicks who judge by color dont.

George Bush was asking for the bailout, Paulson was on his knees begging pelosi to pass it.

[mrburningone]

I like how you're staying current with the issues as I, myself just finished watching this ep on dvr and the debating points being offered here are more than sufficient ammo to use against McCain who has always sided with the Bush admin doctrines that torture is a necessary form in the war on terror; which it is most definately is not.

Obama has a good chance to use this as a talking point that would shine the light of failed foreign policy right where it belongs on the conservative ideology.

[UGOTDAJACK]

lol...what's the definition of a communist? lets see how smart the average republican is.

[Mikelandscaper]

This Issue Has to be Presed.

[tigerone1970]

Wow.

[PeaceChick07]

Thankyou for the truth! How could anyone allow Bush adm to get away with this? And, how could anyone vote for McCain?

[baronmorris]

how indeed. heads in the sand. everyone on both sides should READ OBAMA'S BOOKS!

peace

[c4mouse]

Olberman/Maddow 12' ....

[johnedwards1968]

It's about time she came clean. This sickens me, and any civilized nation would be outraged.

[spincarez]

She is coming clean because she knows once they are out of power, the shit will hit the fan. The rats are leaving the sinking ship.

[Plutonwolf]

I wish this could happen, oh I do so wish it could! But these smug, self righteous cretins will slither off unchallenged and unscathed. They are guilty, of this there is no doubt. But their connections are mighty and the resources they have to draw on would daunt a medium sized nation so do NOT get your hopes up, even if (please be so) Obama wins. Bush will just issue pre-emptive pardons and that'll be that.
