  • He's might be a little sexist but he had good points. Too bad the economy is a lot less about people and more about politics.

  • This just shows the intellect of right wingers. They are very anti woman in every scenario other than spreading their legs. He showed contempt for her the second she started talking. I for one would like an all housewife government for the next 20 years. And I would prefer they only have four years of college MAX. Maybe we would get some sanity in this world if we did that.

  • joan walsh does not come off as a 'strong woman'...she is a flame thrower and blames bush for everything that ailes her...have som eprionciple, go out and buiild a career on your own merits, man or woman.

  • lol she is offended.. dumb bitch

  • If Joan Walsh never becomes my wife I would be sooo happy.

  • Haha! She didn't even understand his point: politics should not dictate economic policy. Like excluding wealthy people from tax cuts because that scores political points with (dimwitted) Democrats, even though it's widely agreed upon that tax cuts for the wealthy will lead to increased growth in the private sector. Here's a novel idea: shrink government consumption of gdp and increase the private sector's share. It's so obvious, but the Dumbocrats have never been accuse of being smart.

  • @muchachogenio

    "She didn't even understand his point: politics should not dictate economic policy"

    republicans are always about politics over policy.

    "it's widely agreed upon that tax cuts for the wealthy will lead to increased growth in the private sector."

    Not among those with a Ph.D in economics.

    Both democrats and republicans are bought by the lobbyists. They're just playing good cop bad cop. Behind closed doors they're buddies. We're being played.

  • What an asshole Armey is.

  • Joan needs a colonoscopy, which I'd be happy to provide

  • Well, I will take economic advice from Armey because he has an economic background, unlike Joan Washup. Joan's argument is only based on emotion.

  • vagina coastguard

  • Love her!

  • republicans are the fucking stupidest people in the us

  • @hmunkey

    and youre a moron!

  • How extremely sexist of him. But if that got his goat, I would just love to see him debate Rachel Maddow.

  • @Charlieinamerica She kicked his ass on Meet The Press

  • Joan Walsh is stupid,but I'd stick my dick in her mouth anyway.

  • @Leatherbubba Shed probably hit you back with hers!!

  • Did you sleep thru this clip like you did the last 8 years? At 1:31 she admitted that it was BOTH sides. Or were you just having sweet dreams about Dick (Teabagger) Armey?

  • No, Armey is no teabagger. I think he is NAFTA/free trade and all that shit. Although Joan did say "democrats too" she EMPISIZED republicans and Bush as the main culprits. Does she not know that Barney Frank and Dodd are the main culprits for making banks give loans to people with no credit, , and that is the main cause of the housing crisis? She is a god damn political hack.

    We need Dylan Ratigan, Ron Paul, Alan Grayson. And Im conservative saying this...but a real conservative

  • intelligent strong woman throws facts at the asshole and his rebuttal is "I am so damn glad you could never be my wife..." I think someone is intimidated by strong women cause they're WEAK. asshole

  • @Mplay1983 She really needed to be put back in her place....and was

  • @Mplay1983

    Dont be so insecure..Joan was just being a bitch and he called her out

  • @bmwforsale5 - you're intimidated by her as well, I see. sadly. 

  • @Mplay1983

    Nice try, honey, but Joan is a nasty, vile bottom-feeder...I don't get intimidated by people like that, I shun them

  • @Mplay1983 Not all men are like this lol

  • @Mplay1983 Intelligent economist is befuddled by a sexist, biased left brain feminist robo-responder throwing emotion rather than logic at a purely logical problem and you call him intimidated? I'd bet you throw out ists, phobes and isms whenever you come up against an argument to your PoV that makes sense.

  • @politicstop - ooh I really like this comment. far more cerebral than most. keep it up and cooee from Australia

  • DICHSHIT is a pathetic piece of trash! What a sexist asshole! crapshitterdickbrained jerk

  • Barney Frank

  • ZING !

  • Prattle?

  • Platter

  • republicans like their women gracefully submissive and are afraid of intelligent women with an opinion. they're afraid that a woman could actually exist on all levels without their input. the old saw " a mind is a terrible thing to waste" has been replaced by the republicans credo " a woman with a mind is a terrible waste". that is how Palin got into the mix. she couldn't think for herself and was easily manipulated.

  • if you say something, make it plain. I should have said that "republican men"... since we were discussing Dick Armey and his comment to Joan Walsh, I thought it would be more apparent as to my comments meaning. my bad... I live in the south and that IS how the men think here!!

  • Mutedvox:

    Me, too! Born in New Orleans, reared in Jawjuh. You don't get much more southern than that. My husband is married to a Republican woman with a master's degree and who is self-employed. So..I take issue with the categorization of southern women by southern men as you've described. I've never noticed rednecks in the north being any more enlightened than rednecks in the south, and they are everywhere, not just south of the Mason Dixon line

    Ya'll have a good day. (I really do mean it )

  • Pathetic. Surely you know that this country's most successful women are Democrats. Where did you get your master's degree? From a diploma mill?

  • Is that you on the little scooter? I'm surprised you'd have the nerve to attack anyone, particularly when someone ELSE and I were being facetious.

    If that is you, your little scooter was cute, but at times I was concerned you might drag or hurt your feet. They did look quite small.........

  • Yeah! Darn democratic weirdos like Palins daughter and Dick Cheneys daughter, they ought to be "taken care of" right? HA HA HA.

  • who ever said Joan Walsh is intelligent? She sure is opionated, but I do not know her credentials that makes her 'smart'

  • Would someone show me the legislation that was passed by Bush, that created this recession?

  • Wasn't it the enormous amount of money spent on the 'war on terror'? And his tax cuts for the wealthy?

  • i love Joan!

  • Who the fuck would want to marry Dick Armey anyways?

  • Listen, kids, Dick flunks Debate 101.

    If you flunked Speech the first time you had to take it in middle school or junior high school, you probably didn't learn this:

    This ad hominen attack is not allowed in any argument and signifies a losing position taken by default...no matter the reason, the argument ends with a FAIL!

  • ad hominem (typo): it's Latin, literally "to the man" - a personal attack (not germane to the subject)

  • Why is this being called sexist? "I'm glad you can never be my wife, so I don't have to listen to you every day"....kinda lame comment, but where's the sexism?

    If she had said I'm glad I'm not married to you so I don't have to hear this garbage every day, would that be sexist? The thenthitive people are out in force again, inventing reasons to get offended.

  • just so you know why, RuflessRecords, it's because he wouldn't say it in a public debate to a man....and the reverse would be true, but she DIDN'T say that to him as a response to his argument, did she?

    Women can't be faulted for being blessed with verbal skills - you could keep us from being educated, like the Taliban, and only allow us to respond "Thou sayest" to everything you say, like that crazy Mormon who kidnapped the 14 year old Mormon girl to rape. Is that what would make you happy?

  • womb, you failed to show why this is sexist, thanks for the rambling tangent that followed however, yah and the mormons and all that great stuff..."women can't be faulted for being blessed with verbal skills" hmm wouldn't you spin this as sexist if men were praised for some characteristic? This talkativeness hasn't translated yet to great female speakers, though Palin gave good speeches; Hillary generally sucked except in that speech at the DNC, Pelosi has the speaking skills of a highschooler.

  • RuflessRecords is trying to learn something from me by personal message... spend less time on YouTube and more time educating yourself - you obviously are undereducated and lacking in proper guidance - when you enlist it will all get better.

  • No idiot, you posted something on my board three days ago and I responded to that.

  • Would you mind explaining what crazy Mormon who kidnapped the 14 year old Mormon girl? Do you mean former FLDS leader Warren Jeffs who arranged the marriage of the 13 year old girl to her 19 year old cousin in a community where that is their religion? Or are you referring to a different incident? I would like to make it clear that the FLDS are NOT Mormons, if indeed that is who you were speaking of. I ask only because I do not know if there was an incident closer to you that I am unaware of.

  • how could you forget the kidnapping of elizabeth smart from her bedroom in front of her little sister? by a man her family had helped? maybe you were too young to know or remember her 9 month ordeal - it was all over the news (if you're LDS, this ignorance is really incredible)

  • this comment is in response to a reply sent by rampantimagination 22 hours ago

  • I remember Elizabeth Smart, who could forget, like you said. But that man was disturbed and very sick, mentally; crazy, like you said. But it have very little bearing on his Mormon faith. I just don't understand why, with all the countless other examples out there of "religious crazies", the one chosen was in reference to Mormons. And the comment made originally was out of honest curiosity. With Jeffs in the news so recently, it was logical to think of that incident first.

  • that was three weeks ago, only one or two pages back, so go read what i wrote in that comment about "Thou sayest" and maybe you won't be confused. That's all Elizabeth was allowed to voice in response to anything said to her..i think you know what i meant. My best friend is LDS (she doesn't use the term "Mormon" usually), so i know whereof i speak...so now drop it so others can have their say.

  • poor dick armey

  • Oh, Joan, don't be a feminazi.

  • I concur with Mr. Armey. There are Joan Walsh's on both sides and they are all over TV.

    There's no how, what, why - just Republicans=bad while Democrats=good. In these spinsters little world, there is no acknowledgement of forces outside of those which are political. Monetary policy helped cause this? GSE lenders helped cause this? CDOs caused this? Commodity bubbles caused this? Nope, because it's just Bush and those evil Republicans. Please. What a joke. Offer some evidence or go away.

  • He's quite the pig, isn't he?

  • Is his name a code to all the male prostitutes to look him up? LMAO I know he is not getting any when he gets home for an entire month........

  • Dick "Dick" Armey

  • He is retired, is he not? He's not an elected leader in the federal gov't, anyway. He's not majority leader of the Republicans in the house, or any of that.

    Knowing his history, for example his role in the "contract for America" shenanigans would make it clear why he says the things he says in this clip.

    He's directly responsible for the mess we're in now.

  • He's so damned lucky I'm not his neighbor and he's so damned lucky people can go to jail for punching a sneering smart alec in the mouth.

  • Dick Armey's asshole comment and disrespect to women is sad. This mindset of republicans is exactly why they are no longer a relevant party. Their views only appeal to the rich old white men and the uneducated rednecks.

  • When you attack the messenger and not the message you lose the debate.

  • Another Republican Dick.

    They love to put their sexism, racism, and bigoted attitudes on public display.

    "They take pride in being ignorant."

  • Which are you, a gay or lesbian, drug dealer or a black racist?

  • G-oing

    O-ff on her makes you a

    P-ariah.

    G-uaranteed

    O-bsolescence

    P-lease

  • <3 dick armey

  • .........and i m glad these 2 cannot be my parents!

  • that's how he got his name.

  • The masses need to just burn down the whole system and build a new one.

  • So much misinformation here - we had no major problems w/ home loans when Clinton was Pres.

    I'm from Texas & know Bush's biggest supporters have been HOME BUILDERS (It was Texas home Builder Bob Perry who paid millions for the Swift Boat Ads).

    To repay Home Builders, under Bush buyers could get loans with hardly any checks.

    ACORN wanted the practice stopped & WARNED that PREDATORY LOANS would go into default when the int rates were raised.

    Bush is the DEMON, not Clinton or ACORN.

  • Actually, the bubble has been forming for a long time...the problem was brewing then just like the terrorist problem was brewing then...then they both blew up on Bush's watch. All of this is both side's fault...if you think different then you are kidding yourself.

  • Dick ARMY

    Menstruating Marines

    Nutsack Navy

    lol

  • Dick Army, lol.

  • Vagina Coast Guard

  • Dick Armey can't engage in an argument with a woman without reducing it to sexist insults? No surprise.

    Dick Armey is so full of himself that he quotes himself and calls it "Armey's Axiom"? No surprise.

    Armey is up there with Phill Gramm, Rick Santorum, Jesse Helms, David Vitter, and the whole Bush crowd as one of the biggest assholes ever in Republican politics.

  • hese loans were supposedly to be watched and oversight provided by Congress, and along comes Barney Franks who was butt fucking the Lobbyist for the mortgage company and Dodd who got a $35,000 bonus VIP loan were put in charge, guess what.... mortgage crisis.

    Bush's & Republican attempts were ignored to over see Fanny & Freedy while Cox looted them.

    Dick Army was 100% right, according to historical fact and not more of Soros Propaganda for which MSNBC operates on.

  • So it was black home owners and ACORN that caused the Wall Street meltdown? I can only hope you're a troll and not really that stupid.

  • Fair point.

    Republicans then had 8 years in which to either repeal the regulations implemented by the Clinton administration, or implement new regulations that would have corrected the problem.

    They didn't.

  • Yea well that would have went over like a turd in the punch bowel. I can see the head line now !

    "REPUBLICANS DISENFRANCHISE POOR BLACK & MINORITY HOME BUYERS"

    Bush did urge them into stepping up the regulation, but you know the double standard scares them into not wanting to seem "mean or uncaring". I still remember when they were trying to starve the poor children at public schools...? Now the liberals have a 50% drop out rate in their dropout factories and want more money.

  • Keep mumbling while the other person speaks, the republican way! and insult to boost! i guess the neocon spammer on here read from dicks playbook.

  • The more conservatives speak in the digital age, the more elections they will lose. Keep them cameras rollin' ;)

  • Dick? Incoherent AND rude too? How rare.

  • dick or not...he is correct in what he says!

    politics should not dictate the economy!!!

    this is not a stimulus package but a bundle of bad policies!

  • Wow, Dick Armey is a deusche bag.

    I hope his wife beat him and starved him and kept him on the couch indefinitely for saying that to a woman.

  • Dick is a DICK!

  • what else do you expect out of that dick's mouth?

  • haha.... that was pretty funny.

  • Dick is a dick.

  • FBHO.

  • Good to see you are as articulate as dick armey...what kind of family values taught you that language?

  • The same values taught to you years ago.

    Go fuck yourself you german douche.

  • You must be Canadian...Only Canadians harbor that much sexual frustration and homosexual angst.

  • Are you still here??? Holy fuck get a life!

    Move on.

    I lost interest in this one second after I finished typing my last coment you german douche.

    Let it go aready.

  • Glad to see your still here and can't let go...again, i'm sure there is a glory hole in your neighborhood you can visit.

  • There might be.....Is your daughter in town?

  • Ha ha ha ha ha ha, ROFL!!! you still claiming to be a straight Canadian!!!

  • Okay It's over now Douche. I am now truely bored of you.

    So go ahead, give that hamster wheel you call a brain a spin, and type somthing clever so you can have the last word.

    Go fuck a duck Fritz!

    Goodbye

  • You're about as sharp as a marble, iguire. Go ahead and continue your pathetic anonymous rants on the web to make your 5'2" ego feel better. Jesus has no patience for bitter idiots.

  • what can you say when you have nothing left to say? just insult the person you are talking to so every one realizes you have nothing educated to say at all.

  • Dick Armey is a crude, rude, sick old geezer...no one should take Armey seriously.

  • DICK is appropriately named, isn't he?

  • who would wanna marry the impotent old geezer anyhow.

  • Thanks for representing the misogynistic views of the republican party. your tent keeps getting bigger.

  • Don't try using prison words with me boy!! LOL Dick Armey is my Grandfather!

  • Mmmm...hambone.

  • lol, Dick Armey.

  • Go dick! This foolish twat deserved it. Doesn't she know that Bush bash is SO 2008?

  • dick armey is a piece of garbage...that man is exactly whats wrong with politics....for christs sake this is the douchebag that got lied to by dick cheney and just took it in the ass like it was nothing and it wasnt until AFTER the iraq war was unpopular that this douchebag decided to cry out "dick cheney lied to me " fuck this piece of shit

  • Matthews should have kicked him off the set after that remark.

  • Is Dick Armey drunk here? He sure sounds drunk.

    And he starts off by saying he is going to get accused of assaulting someone... He's one messed up dude.

  • give it a rest lady ,

  • \\\

  • What a complete DICK.

  • No wonder the CorpoRAT Media is so Full of Shit.

  • Personal attacks are the last refuge of the defeated debator.

  • Dick Armey

  • now that it's out there, he can never take it back. You know that he put it out there that way to soften the proposal. testing the water, and what what.

  • Graveling to rush? I cannot believe she said that, Obama picked a fight with him, you don't pick a fight with a radio talk show host when your the president, the job comes with credibility..

  • She's talking about Republican senators: an example of which is Republican Phil Gingrey who one day say that Rush doesn't run the GOP, then the next day feeling the need to profusely apologize to him, ifearing one of Rush's trade mark character assassinations - which he has done to many a GOP politician for slighting him - in his eyes, of course!

  • WTF? You did hear the whole "I hope he fails" rant from Rush right? How unAmerican was that?! I mean, in the Bush years didn't the republicans and neo-cons say that we have to support the C-in-C during times of war? Or does that only apply to republican presidents?

  • LOL....GO F yourself MSNBC...you commies... OBAMA BOOM AT FOXNEWS... RATINGS SOAR... NIGHT OF 1/28/09... VIEWERS...

  • What a childish little troll...

  • Armey is an asshole.

  • LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

  • I'm sorry. Is this 1952?

  • Republican's= Suck

    Conservatives= Swallow

    Dick Armey= Spits

  • OBAMA IS A F@CKING JOKE! LMFAO!

    Obama pledged to END the WAR but instead he is sending MORE soldiers to Afganistan and Pakistan!

    He puts this Stimulus Bill into play but instead of creating jobs he spends Billions in wasteful government spending putting your grandkids into debt!

    How his spending millions to stop the spread of STD's going to get your mommy or daddy back to work with a new job? LOL-

  • newchristiansheep:

    Read/watch anything else but the bible & Fox?

    You obviously didn't watch the debates, nor did you ever bother to listen to Obama, or read any of his policy. Typical & sadly predictable.

    He promised to withdraw ONLY from Iraq.

    Right from the start of his campaign, Obama advocated more troops in Afghanistan & he's always advocated entering the tribal areas of Pakistan to hunt down terrorists, if Pakistan weren't succeeding. But he does want to work with Pakistani authorities.

  • Also, newchristiansheep:

    Your understanding of economics is quite obviously borne of the same ignorance the fed your strange ideas regarding Obama's Afghanistan policy.

    In other words: you're quite obviously regurgitating the ideas of your favorite news commentator, and as you've obviously done no research yourself, you're not aware that what your spouting is utter nonsense.

    Whomever you've been watching or listening to, have no idea what they're talking about.

  • When in history has any country spent their way out of a recession?

  • FDR

  • actually it was world war 2 that got us out of the depression. It lasted 8 years prior. The spending happened in the early 30's so does that mean we have to spend for 8 years before we get out of this? Besides, back in the 30's there was a more sound monetary policy. it's worse now because of all the inflation there already is in our system along with the insane debt the government is in.

  • Awesome!

  • What an asshole.

  • and your a stupid cunt....

  • Really? You are the one who doesn't even use proper grammar.

  • It's impossible to find anyone ruder and cruder than Dick Armey.

    He truly is a DICK!

  • The rich in this country have had plenty of income redistribution in their favor. Go back to 1980 through today and you will see where the wealth has been redistributed and it's not down, it's up.

  • Don't blame me. I voted for Ron Paul.

  • People are tired of hearing catch phrases like "liberal panty waste" and "bleeding heart" being spewed at every opportunity by silly freaks.

  • I know that I certainly am. It's like you kids can't come upo with anything original it's: liberal this this or that the WORST being: MAIN STREAM MEDIA Jesus I can't wait until you either graduate or enter high school good lord.

  • Wow.

    You must really resent the reality that you find yourself in!

    Be careful: when attempting to create a new reality in your brain, as you appear to be doing, the results can have unintended and dangerous consequences - for instance, instead of just delusional thought, you may end up creating an entirely new personality! One to deal with the real world(permanently depressed), and one where your immediate environment is representative of all of America.

    Clueless, but priceless nonetheless.

  • (for the folks above, this message was for the faux-American patriot 1000)

  • Obama just passed a Stimulus that will do nothing but hurt this economy further and drive the dollars value even lower. Both parties have had a hand in this disaster but the media wants to play the left/right fools game.

  • This is like watching the GOP circle the drain. Brilliant.

  • C-word

  • Those two were made for each other. He's a Dick and she's a... Well, you get the idea...

  • how drunk was Army?

  • People here cheering her on for repeating her idiotic talking points? Pathetic. Armey's response was unwarranted, but her style of "discourse" is puerile at best.

  • No, she's being cheered for continuing to present her opinions without reducing herself to Armey's embarrassing level.

    Sure - disagree with her, use the 'talking points' cliche(despite the fact that she was making some good points with intelligence) - but take away your disagreement of her politics, how can you not consider her a champion for not stooping to react to the idiot Armey?

    As for calling her style puerile: in the context of the Hardball discussion, that's a priceless critique!

  • If you'd actually watched the entire Hardball clip - the entire ten-odd minutes, you'd know that the subject was NOT income redistribution: that was Armey trying to change the subject.

    The subject was the Republican party and their fading relevance.

    And your "Don't blame me'"crap is puerile in itself.

    Before you accuse an intelligent, passionate person like Joan Walsh, how about you actually inform yourself.

    Otherwise, you're no better than Armey: lazy, ignorant and without an argument.

  • Anytime you reduce your opponent to gender, you are a sexist, ad hominem pig. Armey can wear this label with great comfort. God forbid we discuss the issues...You are probably single, am I right? LOL
