  • The only thing Weiner nailed was his own coffin. This country is going bankrupt because organizations like NPR are sucking on the taxpayers like vampires.

  • Wow, Anthony Weiner has balls.

    Sadly, the country learned this the hard way.

  • weiners a fucking retard, if this dipshit cant manage his twitter account, he surely doesnt need to be involved in the machinery of the country

  • @heybulldog13

    That has anything to do with anything? I love how suddenly his point is invalidated somehow.

  • what a cowardly lying little bitch

  • I. Love. This Weiner guy.

  • Fuck that guy is boring and comments stupidly at time... gosh makes me want to unsubscribe...

  • What did weiner the whiner and the democrats do to put america back to work when they had control of the senate and house?

  • @bluedemon245 they took pictures of nancy pelosies dick

  • @bluedemon245

    Get filibustered by Mitch McConnell in the Senate.

    Learn how things work.

  • Rep. Weiner has to be like, the coolest representative out there. I love this guy.

  • Ben you are a genius.....

  • ugh, where's the clip?! i dont' want to listen to you guys I just want to see the clips! it sucks that TYT is the only outlet I can find clips that I want to see

  • I love this guy

  • my weiner likes to nail too

  • Good lord, you morons, young turks, just love listening to fucking retards like Weiner and the moron telling this story! All talk from the left!

  • @BigMoInAZ I see you love it too you dumb fuck, cuz you are commenting on a liberal channel you closet Lib you! LMAO! Fuckin right-winged closet homo! Beat it bitch! Ur kind ain't welcome biioootch!

  • @datniggami7 fuck off you fag!

  • @BigMoInAZ LOL! OOOOO! great comeback!

  • @datniggami7 fitting I'd say

  • @datniggami7 if the shoe fits douche bag

  • @datniggami7 LOL! You're the expert on anything having to do with closets, but you're wrong as usual! If you can't dissent on the oppositions position then you don't deserve to be heard! Of course you should have a point to begin with and I don't mean the one at the top of your head!

  • i actually love this news. All the union busting, the abortion bills, and now npr...the republicans are on the ropes!!!! They're grasping at straws! They know they're dying (literally since they're all old fucks) and they're desperate to get something done so their doing a full on charge with their last energy. This is great news, because it shows the republicans know they're an endangered species, mostly due to the one place they can never control, the internet.

  • John Stewart has had an effect on actual politics and how they argue in House of Rep. now.

  • @theylied1776 boy are you out of touch with reality here. I love Jon (that's without the "h") and I love The Daily Show, but to make it out that he has any effect on politics is just laughable in itself. Jon Stewart is just a comedian who likes making social commentary

  • @extreme67 Yes he's only a comedian, but this comedian got these idiot Senators in D.C. to get off their collective asses to Pass the 9/11 First Responders Bill, that was all but dead until he invited four 9/11 (FDNY) firefighters on his show (Dec 16,2010).

    Funny how that bit of "social commentary" worked out, isn't it?

  • @theylied1776 you think he really intended for that to happen though? I myself thought it was a thoughtful gesture, but it seems anything that results from the things he says is a result of the liberals taking him a little too seriously, which results in conservatives giving him the unfair "liberal man" label.

  • @extreme67 Yes he did intend for it to happen. this Bill wasn't simply stalled in the Senate, the Republicans blocked the bill ( a Filibuster) but after Stewart dedicated his entire show to the 1st responders the republicans couldn't pass that bill fast enough. even the talking heads at "Fox" ,e.g Bill O'reilly,Bill Kristol and Brit Hume," plus", George Will gave Stewart credit for helping getting this bill passed after it stalled in the Senate.

  • @theylied1776 and THAT is the problem. The mainstream media has taken Stewart too seriously and given him credit to things that could've just been done before he opened his mouth on it. Why did it take a comedian to get the government to pass the bill? It's just stupid

  • @extreme67 This is the first thing that you've written that I agree with, but these political Dinosaurs had to be sent a message, that this type of "politics as usual" just won't fly anymore. thanks to Twitter, Facebook and "Youtube" that message (episode) went viral and was received loud and clear by the Senate.

    For better or for worse Jon Stewart is part of this new Media.

  • @extreme67 ok explain this ! when he brought the 911 world trade responders on the show ... how come two weeks later the republicans finally voted on health care for the responders.. when they put it off for months? on every issue Stewert doesnt have political power, but on that issue he sure did...

  • @theylied1776 Hahahahaha yeah real good effect

  • @PatriotWatchUSA I'm glad you agree?

  • Ben, your introduction to this topic and to this clip is way too long. Personal anecdotes are fine, especially when they shed light on the topic at hand, but holy cow get to today's story already.

  • @cincinnatikid40 The segment would have been 10 times better if ben had just played the Weiner clip.

  • Ben is really crap. Get of the TV Cenk and get back here!

  • Weiner 2012

    Fuck Obama

  • Weiner nails GOP. lul

  • I traded a few posts in the Fox news chat section. I put the question out as to what was specifically liberal about public broadcasting. Some guy came back and said it was all the way to Marxist! I was like WHATTTTT????? (Okay, I did play the Sesame Street theme song backwards and I distinctly heard the words, "Muppets of the world, unite!")

  • Ben kinda rambles

  • The title made me laugh.

  • @1nsultTo1njury I didn't even notice it for that

  • Finally, Ben tells a story that is actually funny.

  • I really think Weiner could get enough votes for a presidency

  • koodoes to Anthony Weiner

  • whatever money we'll "save" by defunding NPR is already being spent twice over on sponsoring a NASCAR racecar

  • No this is stupid, the issue is the news shows on NPR, not a car show. Hey, I've got a funny, maybe when people complain about PBS's liberal bias, they're just talking about the knitting shows.

    Oh, funny, funny liberals.

  • @RuflessRecords You missed the point. When Americans were polled to give their top ways to fix the economy, it was 'tax the rich' and 'cut defense'. We did not ask to cut medicare, social security, or education.

    The Republican 2010 elections campaigned on "jobs, jobs, and jobs". Yet they go after planned parenthood, NPR, and cutting the smallest government since 1950. They CUT jobs, they haven't tried to create them.

    This is what we are upset about.

  • @RuflessRecords Second, what show on NPR is liberal?

  • He would be a good president.

  • It's too bad his name is Weiner.

  • Fund NPR. Tax the rich.

  • @tetsubo57 Fuck NPR. Fund progressive crap with your own money

  • @PatriotWatchUSA I say, Eat the rich. If we actually taxed corporations or the wealthy, we could fund NPR for the next century.

  • @tetsubo57 pay off the debt than fund your progressive crap

  • @PatriotWatchUSA The Iraq war cost 10 BILLION dollars a month. NPR is 80 MILLION dollars a year. Which is more constructive, informative and useful to America? This isn't about saving money. This is about shutting down a news source that doesn't think the conservatives are the second coming.

    You do know what progressive means, right?

  • @tetsubo57 There are plenty of news sources out there for you to be lied to. My tax dollars should NOT go towards libtard talking points. PERIOD. Bring those troops home. Obama killing soldiers in record numbers in Afghanistan. HE LOVES IT and hates you and me. KEEP SPENZDING. TAX tha FAT PIG. Keep it up I got Slver Bitch

  • @PatriotWatchUSA How about we tax the rich? You know, the 20% of our population that controls 80% of our economy. Like I said, this isn't about money. This is about shutting down actual sources of news. Rather than propaganda like Fox.

    So, what news sources do *you* trust?

  • @tetsubo57 IT has nothing to do with who I trust. It has to do with spending the peoples money on OPINION. Plenty of places to get our news without the GOVERNMENT funding it. You will see very soon there is No money to fund liberal or conservative crap. For any AMERICAN supporting the funding of NPR during this tme is disgraceful. People losing their jobs and homes due to GOVERNMENT SPENDING. Only a jackass would support such behaviour during these times. Its called rational thought

  • Rep. Weiner nails

  • Agin TYT never makes a piont they just call names

    yes defound NPR!!

    & lets close the US postal service

  • @1inkdaddy Let's also stop wasting money on roads and firefighters. DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH ROADS COST? WE COULD SAVE SO MUCH MONEY BY DEFUNDING THEM!!!

  • This dude needs to stop laughing at his own jokes.

    this is a pretty bad intro

    skip to 2:36

  • skip to 2:37 for the story..

  • @captainobvious55 thank you.

  • What a f*cking legend xD

  • Some of you complaining about funding to NPR, the bulk of that goes letting people in rural areas who have nothing also, if you are so infuriated about this funding why arnt you bitching about the millions that go to NASCAR.

  • Sarcasm is the best way to defeat the idotic right like beck and o'riley.

  • Weiner is funny when he is pissed off lol

  • the gentleman is correct in sitting!!!!

  • shut the fuck up already Ben, 2:30 of bullshit no wonder tyt is dying..

  • Ahh the same old Republicans vs. the Democrats battle where both sides play for the same corporate team. Who cares if were bombing brown people around the world in the name of freedom as long as I have my I-pod, facebook, and a cheese burger

  • Weiner is a maniac. LOLOL BROOKLYNNNNNNNNN!!!!!

  • Yo old people have the upper hand when it comes to pranks. You can say something and they can act like they couldnt hear you. So your in Public having a conversation and your say "Pussys!" and they like What? And they keep going until everybody can hear you and now your embarrassed as hell and they are just cracking up. lol.

  • weiner for prez

  • "Pussies!" : watch?v=0CWMFfSRyM4

  • Comment removed

  • Wiener should run for president. I would prefer him over Obama right now.

  • TYT, put the "pussies" clip on your soundboard.

  • GOP got nailed! Nailed by Weiner!

  • What a legend.

  • out with bush, in with wiener.

  • @FlyinSpaghettiMnstr7 that wud hav been funny if back than it was weiner running instead of obama

  • @FlyinSpaghettiMnstr7 back THEN typo hehe

  • I love the sarcasm that Anthony Weiner has. Why can't every other Democrat do that?

  • This would have been so much better with less Ben.

  • Why the fuck doesn't Weiner take his career further?

    I'd actually really like for him to try for mayor or governor, maybe senate and I'd love for him to run for President.. but I don't see that happening.

  • The other morning I was watching Rep. Weiner on C-SPAN where he was taking on the NPR haters. The dude has an impressive fire in his blood and demeanor.

  • I love NPR but Click and Clack can go. lol.

  • Ben is an asshole! Everything he does or says on TYT irritates me....even when I agree with him on any issue.....he is irritating. One of my wishes in life is to give him good smack in the face

  • Such a tragedy the defunding of NPR... now we have less access to different types of broadcasting. Can't we focus on helping Japan, Haïti, and Libya and not worry about such stupid issues.

  • What an unfortunate title, "Weiner Nails GOP". LOL

  • I love Rep. Weiner! 

  • weiner 2012

  • This gentleman is correct!

  • SAVE CLICK AND CLACK

  • /watch?v=0CWMFfSRyM4 Fucking hilarious! Go Papa Mank!

  • remove "Rep." from the title for the lulz plox

  • "Weiner" + "Nail" heh 

  • 2 and 1/2 minutes of yelling the word pussies....AAAAAND were talking about npr

  • New Rule: If repukes pressure you to fire someone, make that guy the CEO!!

  • Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against NPR, but why do they get federal funding in the first place?

  • @Vlogtimusprime

    That's a very good question. It's even better to ask: why does ANY private entity get federal money in the first place? It's picking favorites and it breeds corruption in government and business.

  • Remember when the Republicans were so concerned for our country that they impeached Clinton? Had a congressional orgy over intervening in the private life of Terry Schivo?

    Unfortunately there is a sizable number of Americans who don't tell them to do the countries business and stop the often false moralizing.

  • @vidguy007 Last week I was watching the continuing Japanese horror show and turned to Fox News to see what "they" are watching. Geraldo Rivera was telling his audience how bad them libs are by showing what Charlie Sheen was up to.

    I then turned back to CNN where they were showing the efforts to stop the nuclear disaster.

  • I appreciate what Weiner did, but why doesnt he just look them in the eye and tell them "You're doing this because it helps keep the public misinformed, and that helps your party. Look at what that SAYS about your party. And its disgusting that you're using such sad excuses to do it."

  • It is imortant, because what they are really trying to do, is to stop the people from getting real, true information . They know we don't get it from cable news, thats a dog and pony show. NPR is one of the few true news sources out there. This is kind of crucial . . . especially when you think about the people in small towns, who would be woefully misinformed . . .

  • ROFL, that story was priceless

  • wow... weiner is my absolute favorite. this guy's got some balls.

  • wow ben how about you let the clip fucking play instead of interrupting every 3 fucking seconds you cocky jew

  • President Weiner 2012!

  • This man needs to run for governor.

  • Weiner for president

  • kudos to you

  • i hate politicians but weiner is fuck badass

    Weiner for president!!!!

  • @wormboy66

    I want Weiner for president!

    WEINER WEINER WEINER!!!

  • I love this guy. This is the kind of politician the West needs now!

  • I am now thinking that 2012 is going to be a record voter turn out with the dems winning by a huge margin. Look at what the repugs are doing- and not doing- at the federal and state level. I can't foresee voter apathy like we saw last November.

  • LOL, I'm still stuck in my 12 year old self and think penis jokes are new and intelligent humor! XD!!!

  • @kalamari13 That's funny. Keep at it.

  • You go Mr. Weiner, Represent for Rockaway & Kew Gardens!!!! kudos to you!!

  • "KUDOS... to you!" is going on the TYT soundboard, guaranteed.

  • Ben's long-winded stories in an attempt to be witty & funny just fail. That story about cookies was not funny but it was long and drawn out and told like there would be a punchline coming. There was none.

  • @DiverseLA rofl.

    chill out, bro

  • of course they have to cut NPR. they were a bunch of commie muslim nazi gaylords who hated America and wanted to kill all our grandmothers. plus, their shows kinda sucked

  • Check out the "Pussies!" exchange on my channel.

  • I want weiner but I definitely don't want boehner or bush. What am I? A liberal~~~~~

    *badumdum*

  • Weiner > Boehner

  • @Adeon55 Franken Weiner 2012

  • Some one says "Pussy" several times on Youtube w/o getting flagged.... Interesting development. I approve.

  • Geez, Ben. You should never be left alone to host a show. Where's Ana when you need her?

  • gotta love how convincing his sarcasm sounds.

  • Do we need 200 military bases in Germany? Fuck no! Who doesn't want to touch the defense budget? Dumb fucking Republicans.

  • @HighCardWins I agree with you in principle however it would probably cost billions to pull out all those troops and close down all those bases - its the military after all.

  • @snowiedognorth I hope my generation can fix my parent's generations bullshit. We need to get big business out of the government. Wall Street shouldn't should run our country.

  • @HighCardWins 1st don't blame your parents. That's they way things were done back then (and probably for good reasons- remember the focus was the cold war for 40 yrs which was REAL and a bunch of crazy lunatics with their fingers on the button ruled the planet - my nostrils literally flair when I think of those wasted years and I am a anti-war peace promoter) We have to think about this in a NEW WAY. THIS IS YOUR challenge. You are the new world- HOW CAN WE SOLVE THIS?

  • @snowiedognorth My parents' generation are the one's still in power. We have senators that have been in office for 30 plus years, so they still have a dumb mindset. They don't seem to care about the future.

  • @HighCardWins You are right.

  • Loved it.

  • I want my NPR to never change.

  • Cookies?

  • Comment removed

  • @ubermisogynist

    Yeah, because equal rights under the law isn't important, nope.

    You're the same type of person that said the same crap during segregation.

  • Comment removed

  • Ben? Your dad ran NPR? Holy crap!

  • Taking time to defend cutting something that keeps the people educated - something that is important to the survival of a democracy or a representative republic for that matter - is just further proof that Republicans don't give a shit about budget deficits - it's more about maximizing power, wealth and control over the people for them.

  • Hey Ben, why is it your dad only ran NPR for 6 years? Was he just as lame and boring as you?

    CENK, QUIT MSNBC, NOBODY WATCHES YOU THERE, GET THE FUCK BACK TO TYT AND DROP BEN IMMEDIATELY.

  • To hear the exchange Ben's talking about at the beginning of this video, you can look on my channel for "Gladstone to Mankiewicz" (one of only two videos I've posted)--video response pending.

  • Hey did u know Ben's dad use to run NPR?

  • Shuda just let the whole clip run

  • @mictheorist you want NPR owned by the rich like the republicans?.. nice

  • Republican politicians are the fattest fucking hypocrite bastards on the planet.

  • This is just going to die in the Senate and Obama is going to Veto it. 

  • Shut up Ben geesh...Your commentary blew on this one. You've done better but these last couple clips were just random outbursts and rambling.

  • Ahhhh Rep. Weiner is the man hahahaha his sarcasm is just hilarious!

  • WHen we cut NPR funding can we also cut oil company funding?

  • If Weiner and Grayson join forces (and run for the presidency) and do what they say. Then America has hope for real change. PERIOD!!!

  • @lapiz4azulli

    Throw Feingold and Franken in their cabinet and you have some real serious change coming and all for the better!

  • at first i read "wiener nails GOP" and im like ewwwwwww

  • if weiner can't run for president because he doesn't want to upstage obama (not that obama would fight back, he might even just quietly step aside anyways, he looks tired of the job and couldn't stomach another round of name calling by conservatives), he should at least be made speaker of the house when the republicans get voted out again. the democrats need somebody with balls and guts to lead them...

  • i can't believe i am saying this but i hate bush, and love weiner.

  • @FlyinSpaghettiMnstr7 Why can't you believe it......should be an obvious choice to make.

  • @FlyinSpaghettiMnstr7 you win.

  • @FlyinSpaghettiMnstr7 That would be a great t-shirt slogan. He could probably run a presidential campain off your quote. Classic!

  • @0ldFrittenfett bless you my child
