Unless you are wealthy, why in the hell would you be a repub. I mean seriously. What do you have to gain? Okay, they go to church like you do...AND........what? The use tax cuts which screws you, they cut funding for programs that would help you! They make comments like "the average Joe" in an attempt to imply that they are just like most people. I'll help you out since you appear horribly confused.They are not your drinking buddy. You go against the people, who WOULD you! TRY to THINK!!!
so true.. but a correction .. they say they are christian, as u notice he is doing an interview at CBN ( christian broadcasting network the political arm of Pat Robertson's organization ) but they do not go to any church for spiritual reasons if they go they go for political reasons
This country is so fucking backwards. Clinton was impeached for a blow job, Dubya (as you hicks call him) broke all of these laws and was left alone. Now Obama can't pass a single bill and yet he should be impeached............WHAT!?! This country is turning into an embarrassment because of, not Obama, but because of scrotum sucking repubs who have an unexplainable fear of any form of progress.
The party of "No" Needs to be changed to the party of "Know Nothing".
it is easy to understand why they fear change.. they know if social & economic justice ( recall Glenn Beck's rant on social justice ) is done they will have their money cow thru political favoritism, corruption and corporate scams shut down the wealthy elite have been raping the economy since Reagan got in office.. this is a death keel for an economy to have such concentration of wealth
Reason to Impeach Obama: he's spending all of our money, and the money of future generations and that is beyond fiscally irresponsible, it is morally irresponsible.
He said to the left, not absolutely socialist. I think that Republicans are in favor of increasing the size of government -and that's a serious problem. Big government just soaks up our tax money, and gives firms something to take advantage.
@undermyvoodoo22 you are right, why spend money on healthcare and education when you could be invading countries, Iraq war has been so much fun,now that is a trillion dollars well spned!
You imply that I support the spending of taxpayer dollars on unnecessary military operations halfway around the world. What else do you assume?
I think a better approach would be to ask questions first and get some information before attacking them. It's your line of thinking that led to those same preemptive attacks that you don't nominally support -you assumed things and shouldn't have become involved in the first place.
Sure, but that's the whole point of capitalism. People invest their money where they think they'll get the best return. How is that a bad thing? I can buy a share of any stock that is public and within my price range.
What kind of question is that? Nobody has paid federal income taxes since Obama has come into office so your question doesn't have much of a point. He has quadrupled the national debt, how do you think he's going to pay for sending 30,000 troops into Afghan and socializing health care? You think these things are free -NO- he has to reach into our pockets to pay that money back to foreign nations with interest.
So our taxes haven't gone up? Thank you for clearing that up. I trust you'll be more honest in the future. Call it socialized medicine all you want. Americans want it.
Yes, taxes have gone up but they're about to skyrocket. And maybe half of Americans want socialized medicine.... the problem is that they expect the other half to pay for it.
The other half should retire and it will bring down the entire system in one month. Then maybe we can have a nigger vice president, and all things will be enlightened and good. Black is beautiful, tan is grand, but white is the color of the big boss man
Politically incorrect for who? I doesnt matter what anyone thinks of me, it only matters what I think. If someone calls me a racist. I simpley answer, Absolutely. You cant get blood from a turnip. Just like regardless of what you do, you cant get the nigger out of the wood pile.
If you're referring to the taxes going up... there is such a thing as artificial demand. When the government purchases something on your behalf, whether or not you want it -it raises the demand and, therefore, the cost of that item.
There are some dumb fucks around that's for sure.. Saw a poll on fox news, 44% of americans, or maybe republicans I can't remember want Bush back.. I damn near gouged my eyes out with a spork.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i wish the republican leadership would stop even talking to the democrats, the liberals are of the devil and all the words they spill are vile poison. only with christ, prayer, and ferocious opposition can we save america from obama's communism and nazism and bring this country back to its god given path of freedom, and liberty. and given obama's countless violations of the constitution, i definetely think we should prepare the impeachment
tehant1liberal: How can I put it better than to just straight up tell you the the USA is no fucking theocracy. If you want to live in one your best bet is to convert to Islam and move to Saudi Arabia or Iran. Thank God not civilized "Christian" countries (save for the Vatican) is like that.
Also, pick up a history book or two and watch a documentary on Nazi Germany. Hopefully there is just enough sense in you pea brain that will help you understand why Barak Obama could ever be a Nazi.
This comment and the stupid GOP senator's show exactly why we can't ever permit the Republicans to come back into power. The most conservative democrats are nowhere near as dangerous as these psychopaths.
could someone PLEASE explain to me that name 'tea party' or 'tea baggers'. seriously who came up with that. how can you not insinuate something negative from that!
What really gets on my nerves about certain republicans now, and what makes them resemble nationalistic morons throughout history, is when they desribe their view as being the "American" view, their values as the "American" values.
Please GTFO. You can't claim your values are American values until you know at least 50% of Americans share them. And even then you're probably a moron to regularly use language like that.
35% is who this Senator is talking to, the far right drones. Clearly they haven't come to an understanding that most voters are center right. Center right, center left, we can't stand morons wanting office without reason. Notice he came right out of the gate telling us what the baggers were saying, without any supporting issue. And on issues, none. They don't have issues. That's there problem.
Seriously why do we need a party that's going to be this crazy? Bringing in scare tactics to kill a bill that's suppose to help Americans, disagree on everything that's right, and now impeach Obama with no reason?...
You wonder why other nations feel sorry for America. If they did impeach Obama, the world world will be pissed.
@Mika20 - And yet American repubs don't want to impeach bush on legitimate war crimes, and make up all kinds of easily dis-proven nonsense. Go figure. The cons-ervatives look more and more like the atypical hollywood, 'faith over fact', backwoods hillbilly everyday.
Yeah exactly! It's like "Oh we don't want to talk about Bush because he's great" crap.. but somehow it's alright to bash on Pres. Obama...all he's doing is trying to fix the mess the Bush administration left behind.
Well in my point of view Obama has really done nothing........even more he just keeps compromising with the repubs, and mostly he's just been all talk. Obama really needs to get his act together and get the wheel rolling so to not let the repubs get a chance to criticize him.
Dear God... I can't tell how the next election will go. On one hand Republicans are going crazy far right and splitting their own vote. While Democrats are comprosmising way to much with republicans and being total pussies. I can't tell who will get less votes.
@fluffybunny - a third or fourth party that will seriously represent the needs of the individual citizen is sorely needed. Politicians and the public they "serve" have allowed corps to legally bribe gov't officials into doing their bidding at the expense of the public.
Unfortunately repubs and their backers feel that public, individual protection is socialism. They seem to feel that people should be allowed to screw over others for as much profit as they possibly can.
The problem with American politics: every Republican is an evil, unpatriotic whore while Democrats are too pussy to stand up to them and the twenty percent of whores in their party.
You SAID IT!! ReTHUGLICONS are truly demonic anti-American freaks (no hyperbole) and too many Democrats are spineless milquetoasts!! Maybe it's finally time to vote 3rd Party?!
Just the fact this senator would say repubs are too far left shows he has no clue what is going on or he is hoping the people that voted for him have no clue what is going on. Either way, it makes an unhealthy political system.
left and right wing is a joke in american politics. The representation of both are corrupt and destroying our empire. We need politicians like alan grayson and ron paul.
Just the idea that the GOP is too LIBERAL and 35% of people want to impeach Obama just because they don't like him...
Is there ANYTHING to say that will make that any more stupid? Could it be said by a monkey in a clown suit jerking to your girlfriend? Coming from that monkey would at least make MORE sense.
I mean... come on! This is something I'd expect from The Onion!
35 % of Republicans want to impeach Obama? Could they possibly want to impeach him because he's Black?
Do they know that, IF Obama were impeached, a white guy named Biden would be the President? Or do they want to impeach that white guy, too, in which case, Nancy Pelosi would be President?
This is the final proof that 35% of Republicans are either racists, or just plain stupid, or maybe both at the same time. I vote for BOTH!
I wonder if this left wing and right wing aspect of politics is just for the sake of covering up the politicians' loyalty to corporations and special interests.
Before Reagan there was a very small element of labour in the Democrat party, the dems did support the middle and the working classes, that's where their votes and campaign cash came from. Today, the cash comes from the corporations - even for Obama. It's a form of governance that Mussolini would have been very familiar with, except of course the big M would never have given up power like bush did and Obama will. Note, the special interests are the corporations.
I wonder why US politics keep becoming more and more polarized while in western Europe all parties are more and more centrist to appease the middle class. Both developments are equally bad but why are they opposite?
"The problem here in the republican party is not that the base has gone to the right. The problem in the republican party is that the leadership has gone to the left"
Yeah..... why do you think the leadership went to the left? Oh, I don't know, maybe because the country went to the left and the leadership wants to stay in office?
The Republican leadership is not too far to the left--they're in the pockets of corporations, just like many in the Democratic party. DeMint's reading is completely self-serving--not surprising.
of course the republicans oppose virtually every idea that Obamba the manchild president and his dumbass democrat congress have proposed cuz all those ideas are fuckin stupid as hell.
I really don't get why you stupid libs don't get that
@friction00815 Right like when dems proposed a law that would allow women who have been raped or sexually assualted on the job 2 have more than an arbitration meeting (being able 2 take it 2 crimanal and civil courts) by making that an exception to the blanket arbirtation contracts, which the repubs overwhelmingly were against.
Stoping a bill that gives legal options 2 raped women instead of forcing in2 a company-picked arbirtation, IS obstruction for the sake of obstruction. Bad poltics too.
I don't think wanting smaller government is far right. I think most the tea party people are tired of Government wasting their tax dollars and passing regulations and mandates that benefit big business and government entities at the expense to us the consumers. The government does not have any money it get all its money from taxes. If they borrow money we the taxpayers have to pay it back with interest. If they print money we get inflation and high prices because the dollar is worth less.
Small government benefits big corporations. Big governmentt helps you. This is a very basic concept. The problem is that retards can't seem to grasp this.
What people understand is that both parties have been growing government. This administration by leaps and bounds. The bigger the Government gets the poorer we become as a Nation. The economy becomes. stag-net, wages decrease, and freedoms are taken away. Think about the two most heavily regulated entities Education and Health care Both cost taxpayers the most and both are big time failures. Why? To much government involvement.
Do you have an example of a successful health care system anywhere in the world that has LESS government involvement then the one found in the United States?
Well actually here before 1965 and France's private insurance. France has a shared system where the gov type plan has large out of pocket. A lot of services have to be payed up front but their private plans reimburse them. Their private insurance is barely regulated making it a true free market private insurance system and it is very resonable. Their gov system is dealing with raising cost & starting to ration care and they have wait times. They pay ave 18% tax out of their pay for the gov care
i didn't say that these are MY views... god no... i was just pointing out that the Repub leaders ARE to the left of lots of ordinary people.. sad, but true
A flat tax for incomes above 45k of 18% ( no tax under 45k) Would actually bring n more money then the over regulated system we have now. We have a large private sector health care but it is not a free market system when government calls all the shots and has passed the regulations/mandates that benefit themselves and the industry at the expense to consumers. We have thrown money at education every year and rank lower world wide every year because of government regulation.
"We have thrown money at education every year and rank lower world wide every year because of government regulation. "
Dont all the countries above us in education have big govt education systems? and the same for healthcare that ranks above us has a lot of govt involvement. Its not the size its the people they are corrupt and money runs a crooked congress we dont have a govt. that works for us thats how i see it.
What he's saying, Chenk, is that the GOP is too liberal because it still officially support voting rights for women and blacks. See, if we could go back to the 19th century, we'd have work houses and debtors' prisons and white men could have all the wealth to themselves again.
this is why we still need to worry about the Republicans... the voters honestly do think that their elected officials are too far to the Left... MOST OF THEM BELIEVE THIS... we need to be VERY worried and not just right them off, we need to VOTE or else see this country taken over by these idiots
I agree that the GOP has gone to the left, in terms of fiscal responsibility and the role of government. However they gone to the far far right when it comes to social issues, which IMO is the very worst of both worlds.
Rank and file TEA Bagers are not Repulicans or Dems. The media just interviews some talking heads. The TEA stands for taxed enough already. No one talks about getting rid of taxes.
"Mainstream...".."American principles".....what makes them think the mainstream and our American principles are conservative.....didn't the mainstream vote Obama in with a sweeping victory? Didn't our American principles make itself known on election night? How they managed to take THAT away from us too is astounding...
So true....then I guess my next question is...WHY are we letting them? How is it the GOP has more power now that we have a Democratic president...and that's exactly what it is....we are ALLOWING them to take over....steal our chance...our time...they need to shut the fuck up...they had their turn and RUINED the country....When will our party get some balls and kick them in the teeth?!
what the hell? too far left? as far as i'm concerned, the democrats have become a right wing party. and republicans by now are basically what the NSDAP was in "good ol' germany"... when bush was still president and he made them pass a law that would've given him absolute control over the government in state of emergency, i actually figured that was a preparation for a dictatorship. guess i was wrong then but still - it's never too late...
In Australia, the center-left part (Labor) crushed the center-right party (Liberal) he last federal election leaving the Liberals is the same state that the Republicans are in. They tried to center themselves but it backfired and they lost a lot of support. But recently they've made a significant move to the right and it's really paid off. They have gone up in the polls and are now actually a legitimate opposition to the Labor government. So perhaps going right will also pay off for the Repubs.
first of all who da f&*k iz "OBAMBA"???..Never heard of him...i think the name u were trying to spell is GEORGE "D-BAG" BUSH...but its ook, sense and logic dnt come to all of us that easy!!
These Tea Baggers will go down in history as the biggest joke of the world.
And don't be surprised if these Tea Baggers end-up being tomorrows home grown terrorists. When people go around saying "I want my America back" they'll think anything is acceptable.
It really happened. But I still couldn't believe she said it. I was ready to counter anything that was said, but I wasn't expecting that. She had the last word, but I had the last laugh.
That story was hilarious! Cenk should single it out and tell all of his viewers about it. It is such a great representation of the average "impeach Obama" protagonist.
TAz69x: I hope you're right. I'd love to see an actual "progressive" party in that country.
Bush was, in the words of Carlin, "installed" and the 8 years were awful.
Then Obama got in as so-called "change", but he hired all the same guys. Geithner, Bernanke etc. + while Emanuel isn't a Republican, he can't be trusted because he's in bed with Goldman SUCKS.
I don't think Obama's done anything impeachable, but I think the whole system should be cleaned out and started again.
True, and he's one of my senators. I hope the Democrats run someone good against him next year. He's too busy being the "Tea Party King" to represent South Carolina.
The Tea Party is the TRUE conservative republican party and they are the overwhelming majority and mainstream America! They WILL overtake this country and its corrupt government and install Sarah Palin as America's NEXT and GREATEST POTUS of ALL TIMES! The RIGHT is ALWAYS RIGHT and the LEFT is ALWAYS WRONG!
Demint is Sarah Palin's DICKLESS and BALLESS BITCH and PUSSY! Palin is a SUPERIOR politician and statesman than Demint could ever be. She is also MORE MAN than he is for Demint wears the skirt in his family while his wife wears the pants!
the Republican party has gone to the left? rotflmao! they are slightly to the right of HITLER! fuck em i say! they are old racist farts banging on about "big government" while doing the best to INCRESS the Government's role in their country!(patriot act / homeland security acts ring any bells?they are just out for themselfs and fuck anyone who is poor/black/hispanic/intelligent!
I'm watching the disintegration of the GOP with morbid fascination- it's truly a train wreck! You can believe if they keep up on their current path, they'll insure a 2nd term for Obama...
Just think how hard they'll be working in another 10 years when a large number of their 70+ constituency has gone to join Reagan...
these republicans are trying so hard to move the country to the right the sad part is theyre tearing the country apart until we give in and they suceed....how do they do that? the media
This country thrives when it is way too the right! Whenever it moves every so slightly to the left it falls apart! Cenk is completely wrong when Democrats improve the economy! The economy never thrived under the DEMS! ONLY UNDER the GOP does the economy do well!
maybe Jim Demint did start the recession...

Just the idea that the GOP is too LIBERAL and 35% of people want to impeach Obama just because they don't like him...
Is there ANYTHING to say that will make that any more stupid? Could it be said by a monkey in a clown suit jerking to your girlfriend? Coming from that monkey would at least make MORE sense.

35 % of Republicans want to impeach Obama? Could they possibly want to impeach him because he's Black?
Do they know that, IF Obama were impeached, a white guy named Biden would be the President? Or do they want to impeach that white guy, too, in which case, Nancy Pelosi would be President?
This is the final proof that 35% of Republicans are either racists, or just plain stupid, or maybe both at the same time. I vote for BOTH!

Fragbug 2 years ago 2
Before Reagan there was a very small element of labour in the Democrat party, the dems did support the middle and the working classes, that's where their votes and campaign cash came from. Today, the cash comes from the corporations - even for Obama. It's a form of governance that Mussolini would have been very familiar with, except of course the big M would never have given up power like bush did and Obama will. Note, the special interests are the corporations.

I don't think wanting smaller government is far right. I think most the tea party people are tired of Government wasting their tax dollars and passing regulations and mandates that benefit big business and government entities at the expense to us the consumers. The government does not have any money it get all its money from taxes. If they borrow money we the taxpayers have to pay it back with interest. If they print money we get inflation and high prices because the dollar is worth less.

What people understand is that both parties have been growing government. This administration by leaps and bounds. The bigger the Government gets the poorer we become as a Nation.

blingbling65943 2 years ago
Well actually here before 1965 and France's private insurance. France has a shared system where the gov type plan has large out of pocket. A lot of services have to be payed up front but their private plans reimburse them. Their private insurance is barely regulated making it a true free market private insurance system and it is very resonable. Their gov system is dealing with raising cost & starting to ration care and they have wait times. They pay ave 18% tax out of their pay for the gov care

I am as liberal as it gets. But can see what DeMint wants. My mom is one of these folks...
Taxes... Need Flat tax. Graduated tax system is unfair and unfriendly to business.
Health Care... Programs should be abolished or reformed so as not to cover so many people.
Education... Dept of Education should be abolished, or at least a robust voucher system.
Homosexuality... Need Fed Marriage Ammendment to Constitution.
Abortion... Make illegal in all cases, even rape and incest. It is murder.

A flat tax for incomes above 45k of 18% ( no tax under 45k) Would actually bring n more money then the over regulated system we have now. We have a large private sector health care but it is not a free market system when government calls all the shots and has passed the regulations/mandates that benefit themselves and the industry at the expense to consumers. We have thrown money at education every year and rank lower world wide every year because of government regulation.

In Australia, the center-left part (Labor) crushed the center-right party (Liberal) he last federal election leaving the Liberals is the same state that the Republicans are in. They tried to center themselves but it backfired and they lost a lot of support. But recently they've made a significant move to the right and it's really paid off. They have gone up in the polls and are now actually a legitimate opposition to the Labor government. So perhaps going right will also pay off for the Repubs.
