  • We can't afford to provide medical care to our citizens but we can sure afford to bomb hell out of peasants and set up military bases all over the world.

  • What happened to John McCain!? He used to be one of the most reasonable republicans in Washington, but ever since he ran for president he has become extreme just another extreme conservative and a puppet for corporate interests. McCain once passed legislation attempting to regulate campaign finance, he opposed the Bush administrations torture policy, and at one point was even pro-choice. He is a sickening example of how all politicians can be bought by money and power.

  • First of all what does it mean when they say "Chicago-style"? Does that mean Chicago is somehow out of the mainstream of America. Secondly maybe the majority of people in AZ did oppose the bill and inversely, Senator, maybe the Democrats voted for it because the people in THEIR states supported it.

  • This fucking host has been watching too much of obama on tv. He can't speak the truth just propaganda bullshit. There will be healthcare reform but hopefully not this monstrosity of a fucking the dems ramed up our ass.

  • Strange.. The US has one of the highest per capita incomes in the world, and it has the highest GDP, and it can't afford universal healthcare?

    What kind of voodoo do they use all the other industrialised countries that have universal healthcare?

  • Johnston McChurchill?

  • According to McCain's twisted rhetoric, his will automatically represents "The American people's" will eh?

    Riiiite...that's why they all voted for ya in 2008! Old fart, go away.

  • At the end here man, The reason why the republican's voted against this bill as you all should know by now is because this bill is restricting and putting chains on people with and without healthcare. The Democrats had majority vote and that's all they needed. This wasn't bi-partisan, this was a passing of a bill that stinks. If you read the bill, the bill states that EVERY AMERICAN CITIZEN must have healthcare.If you don't, Federal enforcement according to the bill goes down. The democrats lie

  • I wonder if McCain and the other republicans actually BELIEVE what they're saying, or if they laugh about it on the phone with each other.

  • Someone please put this old fuck out of his misery.

  • senator mccain is fightin for the insurance co's right to deny kids coverage! thanks a lot!

  • Well hes so old he might have been a friend of winston churchhill

  • Really, no (R) amendments?

    How about you get a real journalist

  • @TimmyHaag Yeah ,Vietnam POW .

  • agreed and true,plus when he was shot down by the vietnamese he earned the nickname "songbird"avoiding torture and supplying combat data to the enemy.the war hero that never was

  • And people actually voted for this douchebag when he was running for president?

  • McCain is a huge fan of sausage making. Wonder if he hosts any sausage fests!

  • come-on man is old, show some respect

  • could yall be anymore biased ? I am neither Rep.nor Dem . But John Mcclain is a war hero & deserves some measure of respect , Reflective of how we treat our veterans , Judge Napolitano says pre existing condition are not covered .More lies .

  • You may want to do some research on Mr war hero there. His code name as a P.O.W. was songbird. He is a fake and totally disrespected other real war P.O.W.'s and their families. Don't believe everything you see and only half of what you hear.

  • John McCain is a bald faced liar. They water down the bill until it's a virtual hand out to the insurance industry and it still isn't enough.

  • Im Sorry Cenk, but that anchor deserves a "How you doin"?

  • McCain is well beyond his expiration date. It's time he retires before someone boots his ass out of congress, which should be done ASAP! That old man should either resign or die, doesn't matter to me which happens as long as his ass is out of congress where he can no longer make idiotic half-baked speeches like this, esp ones that help so MANY Americans who are dying every day out of stupidity of the Republic Party's failure to care about the average person vs the wealthy!

  • McCain go jump off the brooklyn bridge

  • Hes got one leg in the ground , but hes still sucking on corporates balls , instead of putting his soul right .

  • these fucking Republicans are killing everything they can, because the American people are so fucking retarded that they think one party (the Repubs) is more honest than the other. The Rs are given the benefit of the doubt every single time. When they successfully shut down the government they will blame the Democrats and the American sheeple will just go along with it. Disgusting.... sometimes I hate my country

  • Hey Johnboy.... GO AWAY AND STFU !!!

  • And he wonders why he lost? He's a nutt bag.

  • I loved Cenk's Churchill. Classic.

  • why isnt the fact from 4:11 on mentioned as much as it should be? there clearly is proof and just shows that this isnt about the citizens anymore, but one party vs the other

  • I'm Winston Churchill, would you like some tea and crumpets?

  • I wonder how many 100s of pages of material Cenk has to read every day , to stay up to date on all of these issues .

  • TYT NATION! Remember to vote for TYT EVERYDAY on the Streamys website!

  • They pull a filibuster, you pull a gun.

    They send one of ours up on Glenn Beck, you send one of theirs to the Hospital.

    They send one of those teaparty mobs, you send one of theirs to the MORGUE.

    THATS the Chicago way.

    Oh wait...

    No,that was the Untouchables. Here, it's compromise compromise compromise.

  • Sausage making?

  • This man could have been the only thing coming between Sarah Palin and the presidency.

  • this is funny. when i saw this live i thought "who does mccain think he is churchill?"

  • This fuckbag (McCain) doesn't speak for me (a Phoenix resident), hell, I didn't even vote for this motherfucker, so I like how he's telling people what I believe, when I totally disagree with him. I do want healthcare reform.

    What an asshole!

  • @FirebirdCamaro1220 Oh, no, that is McCain's Arizona he represents, the "real arizonians" who think exactly like him.

  • McCain is washed up - he won't even be able to hold on to his own seat.

  • @tehant1liberal I hope that was a joke ^^

  • @P1ranh4 It never is.

  • @dangerouslytalented come on, let me have a little naivety in this cruel world of ignorant people!

    Equalizing HCR with the things that went on in the third reich and to call everything socialism that is new, is just dangerous. Those words will totally change their meanings and will stop warning us, when there is really something fishy going on. It's like the story of the boy who called "wolf".. it's the Republican who cried "Socialism"!

  • Comment removed

  • @ootdega It's great isn't it....

    McCain knows one thing...

    The REPUBLICANS HAVE NO IDEAS!

  • @dangerouslytalented

    I was actually trying to prove that republicans had their muddy paws all over the damn thing, but you did me one better.

    I tip my hat to you, good sir.

  • @tehant1liberal godwins law you lose.

    You are comparing the elimination of the insurance companies rescinding cover, and people under 26 being covered under their parents policies, with Hitler.

  • 'Now get off my wife's lawn!'

    Irrelevant, cranky, old fool. When does John 'Song-bird' McCain, and the rest of the rethug goon squad, plan on getting in all this fighting? Before they go home early at 2 pm?

    ROFL!!!

  • grampa McCain needs to change his colostomy bag and retire

  • @Fry1989HD That is not his colostomy bag.

    That's his former vice presidential candidate.

  • haha...republicans get so worked up when they lose

  • Yeah, I noticed that too.

    I was like, huh?

  • Up late? What is that for him, 9:30? Anyway, when did McCain get a pirate voice? Throw in a couple yarghs and some ahoys, McCain, your approval rating will skyrocket!

  • Thanks Cenk, we need to keep reminding these fake conservatives that this has been a bipartisan discussion for 100 years.

  • yeah, im pretty sure im moving outta the US, maybe go to one of them commie European countries like Sweden or Norway.

  • Comment removed

  • Totally agree with you on the partisanship. It's the height of hypocrisy for the Republicans to say the the Democrats were partisan. They went out of their way to include them, but the party of no said, well, no. Hopefully the public will see through the bullshit.

  • cenk you are the man. keep it up

  • John mcCain picked Sarah Palin for VP running mate. Picking that retard is all you need to know about McCain and his shit stupid deal making.

  • And thus, John McCain shows his true colors. Yeah, the bill is may not be perfect, but it's a good start. And call me crazy, but I think just about every person in the country would want things that are included in the bill. Can we vote Conservatives off the island?

  • yeah, mention Chicago-style sausage....you're just like them, John, that's how you relate....

    go fuck yourself, old man

  • what is "chicago style"

  • Churchill will be rolling in his grave..

  • He is still fighting the election...

  • is mccain still  alive? lol

  • Of course he's still alive, he has the best healthcare the public's money can buy!

  • TYT is the shiznit

  • Repukes had no intention of permiting HCR to get through. The insurance companies bought them out and they stayed bought. To hell with them.

  • Once again Rep. fuckwads showing they don't care about the people. They just want Obama to fail and them back in power.

  • McCain is a delusional bitter old man that is bordering on senility. Nothing he says is worth listening to anymore.

  • Dude, I hope you never go to broadcast TV, because your delivery is too awesome for the networks!

  • The party of "No." Let's hope the Dems that during the next election to describe the GOP.

  • See this is why Democrats shouldn't cave to Republican demands. Democrats should make ZERO concessions. They gave Republicans a zillion things in this debate, including the public option, and the Reps still come out and jump on the Dems at the end anyway. So why appease them at all? Why not just say "Hey, we won the election, the Americans people want to go our direction, so we're going to go our direction"???

  • yeah, remember when Obama said "well... we won"

  • love cenk and TYT but that was possibly the worst churchill imitation ever.... he made him sound irish.

  • Wow... John McCain is another one of my list of sadists, who masturbate to human misery.

  • Sausage making... Chicago style... is John McCain hungry?

  • Haha.

  • Typical, the liberal counter to any opposition is; you're a racist, you're a facist, you want children to die. No, just don't want the government to intrude into the private life, or to wreck the whole system by being forced to take over what is someone else's responsibility. The liberals and their voters are incapable of providing for themselves, so they wish to use the power ot the state to force the decent, creative,and productive to provide for them. On bipartisanship, only Dems voted for it

  • There is no public option in this bill. So how can you say we want the government to provide healthcare for us?

    If Republicans hate parts of the bill, they should change what they don't like. If they kill this bill entirely there will be people and children that will suffer because insurance companies don't care about them. Like it or not, we need SOME regulation of health insurance.

  • And that regulation exists, and should stay, at the state level. It is not the government's purpose to prevent suffering, it is the governments job to protect the rights of individuals. As to how can I say that, the federal mandate is to force people to buy insurance, with massive federal subsidies along with it. Medicine is not a right, and trying to make it so infringes upon the real, natural rights.

  • The republicans aren't necessarily opposed to univeral coverage, but the way to approach it is that we are wealthy, and the production equations have changed and this is something we can do; without making it a so-called 'right' or bankrupting the country. Then, let a couple of state try it out. In such a way that it can be done away with if it turns out to be a disaster, not making it virtually impossible to repeal, for the same reason.

  • since the election people have started to see right through john he has become pathetic

  • poor mccain, still bitter about his loss.

  • We'll fight in our bathrobes from inside our multi-million-dollar mansions. We'll fight in the country clubs. We'll fight in our limousines. We'll fight until the polls tells us not to. Then we'll take credit for other people's work.

  • McCain needs to retire to 24 hour medical care for his dementia. He needs a pacifier, pajamas, and a colostomy bag. If there is a God he's got some splainin' to do. Probably lied more than Dick Cheney in his career. He admits it and he always admits that he lies for ambition.

  • what a waste of time.Bill is passed move on.

  • mccain is a RINO

  • "Completely partisan bill" John, the only ones being partisan are you REPUBLICANS!! With your increasingly concrete CULTISH tea-party behaviors.

  • A man with cancer on his face is fighting against health care reform.......

  • I didn't know Churchill was Irish...(Cenk's 'accent')

  • Hey John... we're still waiting on your idea on how to capture Bin Laden. Hope it didn't involve you and an airplane. That didn't quite work out in the last war you won. Guess we will never know now that you finally decided not to do your job anymore. What's next? A book tour and a gig with FOX News?

  • McCain, you say that the Dems didn't vote for what Arizonans' wanted. Maybe that's your interpretation, but those Dems represented THEIR states and districts, while you supposedly represented your own. That's how the system is supposed to work. Boo hoo, the vote didn't go your way.

  • Comparing McCain to Churchill is an insult to Churchill.

  • well he's certainly old enough lol

  • McCain is a danger to America with this propaganda. He is one sicko.

    We have to get people like this out because they are leading uneducated

    and racist to fight for hatred. I think this is about prejudice.

  • i cant help having images of alice in wonderland and the mad hatter conjured in my mind whenever tea party is mentioned.

  • Nice introduction, lying scumbag McCain. Nice.

  • Does Mccain know that we the people have the TV and the internets (a series of tubes) and we KNOW that the health care bill had alot of Republican input....Anyone hear of the gang of six? Sen Snowe from Maine...Republicans are so bullshit.....Liars all of them.

  • LOL 200 amendments, then he says bizarre what a joke.

  • This man should never be compared to churchill

  • @excandersham he is more like shithill lol

  • @naturalmystic33 original

  • I think its scary that the republicans are so close to facism another step to the right and they are there

  • McCain is still sore about losing to reality in 2008. Now he's pledging No Cooperation - as opposed to all the No Cooperation he gave last year.

    Go back to your tea party rallies, McCain.

  • even the tea partiers hate him

  • "I will never stop fighting to make sure that 30 million americans die broke and sick because they can't afford insane health care prices or have pre-existing conditions"

    Those republicans really care about the american people. I wonder how many of those 30 million americans are republicans? None of them should accept their new insurance they should just rot and die like their party members want them to do.

  • thats harsh man. remember republicans are people too... wishing death upon them is no better than tea partiers wishing death upon us

  • What McCain said was essentially the opposite of reality at every point. How can believe such things? How can he hope to convince anyone of it?

  • lol republicans are ultimately done in few decades they won't exist if they are not careful. What is likely happen the dems split into two separate wings.

  • well... his high school GF did baby sit Winston

  • WOW!!! He was so full of elan and pumped with emotions... So convincing!!! I thought Churchill was talking actually... I swear ;-)

    He didn't sound like half-dead(Deadly bored and uninterested actually) nor the phone line "inspirational speech" sounded faked out and forced... REALLY, IT DIDN'T XD

  • Thank goodness that MCcain lost the election. Can you imagine this asshole running the country with caribou Barbie at his side. A disaster of epic proportions.

  • We dodge that.

  • the health care reform did pass

  • Unsavory Chicago-style sausage-making process. Sausage. Sausage swimming in a sea of cream sauce with - tiny onions!

  • Nice Churchill impression.

  • mccain has a black adopted child , he is not racist...im a democrat but i have to keep it real

  • Always with the sausage making meme. It doesn't even make sense. Yes its an ugly process, but that is the American system. Its not a swipe at the democrats it a swipe at the parliamentary rules.

  • has McCain ever heard of Reagan or Bush? i don't recall much bi-partizanship...

  • Cenk. I am a Dual US/UK citizen. I pay 12% of my income already on the UK national healthcare service. THIS BILL requires me to pay around $1000 a year as I don't have US insurance. WHAT!!!! I am a student with thousand of dollars of debt at the moment. Furthermore I spent almost every ounce of my spare time volunteering and heading up international aid programs. This bill should NOT go through IN ITS CURRENT FORM. Not fair.

  • Hey the issue of DUAL citizenship taxes when you are not living in the US .." can you shed more info on this? or a website? i don't want to get screwed , since i've never field US taxes

  • Let's see McCain said America and the State of AZ can't afford HC Reform but we can afford 2 senseless wars that his GOP party got us into!!! McCain went to bed early because he's so old he can't stay away, but he was up at 3AM to pee, he's a total asshole...he almost unleashed Sarah Palin on America...think about what he's saying, he's wrong on almost everything that comes out of his wrinkled mouth...what a prick!!!

  • Yo, McCain... just because none of you guys voted for the bill doesn't mean it's not bi-partisan. It's a bi-partisan bill... it has TONS of republican ideas in it. Too many probably. And y'know, if the democrats can craft a bi-partisan bill without any of your votes... then doesn't that mean that you guys have no purpose? I mean, you've kind of become useless if all you're going to do is sit on your butts complaining and playing politics instead of actually working to help people. RETIRE.

  • @Fogbats BIPARTISANSHIP is the problem. Since the Republican Party is solely a speaker for corporate America, the Democrats should avoid bipartisanship by all means. The Democrats are corrupt enough that even their proposals will sadly always be at least 50% corporate-friendly (which in the US is almost always against the real people)

  • @tommyto19 Yeah, pretty much. My point was that McCain, like the rest of the repubs has continuously used this talking point about the bill not being bipartisan because they aren't VOTING for it, which is beside the point, and without those votes the dems basically did the repubs jobs for them by putting their ideas in... so McCain and the others have become completely redundant in even HAVING seats.

  • mccain hookin back up with sarah this weekend will give him a testosterone lift......i love his aprroving smiles as he looks on his gal..... big daddy mccain.... fight fight fight , my friend...

  • oh, go away, McCain.

  • Freely elected representatives voted on and passed a bill?

    Wow, they are right... communism! *rolls eyes*

  • such a damn liar

  • Having health insurance AND being covered are two DIFFERENT things.

    Many people think they have insurance...yet don't realize they signed a pre-existing condition rider which takes the insurance company OFF the hook when it's time to pay.

  • haha nice

  • OMG I cannot believe he just blatantly lied when he said that repub weren't included. What a straight faced liar!!!

  • "I hate gooks!" ring a bell?

  • I would slap him. If I was there, I would slap that old man. Nobody insults fucking Churchill.

  • The GOP plan for everything... Say NO.

    Education Reform... NO

    Healthcare Reform... NO

    Ending the Iraq War... NO

    Repealing Don't Ask Don't Tell... NO

    Equal Rights... NO

    Bank Regulation... NO

  • @GuzzyVision *Except for war and tax cuts.

  • Cenk on top form here...brilliant

  • Lol, John "the loser" McCain. Why are people still listening to this guy?

  • HAHA!

    young turk is such a FILTHY LIAR!

    everyone knows that Obamba told Pelosi and Reid to grab the looniest of the far left progressive loons in Congress, take them behind closed doors and write him a whackjob leftwing progressive government takeover healthcare bill and ignore ALL republicans and bluedog democrats.

    John McCain is totally correct so don't listen to young turk's filthy lies.

    DIRTY LYING LIBERAL SCUM!

  • im really trying to understand what you wrote, its 3 in the morning. Obama told pelosi to grab the craziest of the left and give them a whackjob and ignore all republicans.

    Because thats what just happened.....

    you understand weve had 8 years of republican laws pass, and the democrats are like "ehh, whatever"

  • @friction,

    In 1971 President Nixon was concerned that he would once again have to face a Kennedy in the next year's election -- in this case a Kennedy with a proposal to extend health care to all Americans. Feeling the need to offer an alternative, Nixon asked Congress to require for the first time that all companies provide a health plan for their employees, with federal subsidies for low-income workers.

  • ....?

  • Why is it ridiculous? He probably feels like he being in a patriarchal role with someone of color, will allow them to have gratitude for his existence in their life. Why is that so ridiculous? The guy has made racist remarks in the past...

  • Well can anyone name one thing John McCain has done well in his life?

  • Well he certainly has won the award of being the biggest hypocrite of the decade.

  • seems to survive crashes pretty good

  • cenk is BACK and he's awesome!! fuck the why aren't u on msnbc???.. u r too fucking real for em.. actually.. just stay on this.. it gets a bigger audience anyways..

  • like a worldwide audience...peeps from butwerethefuckarewe watch this

  • McCain can go fuck himself.

  • God forbid poor people have access to affordable healthcare

    why do republicans hate poor people?

  • @eyehategumbo cause there fuckin with the rich peoples money!!! lol

  • "normal" people, more likely.

  • i'm an arizonan (phoenix) who says fuck john mccain. ABSOLUTELY do most arizonans (just not the rich white ones) want health reform

  • Who the fuck is going to give credence to anything John McCain says. This is the fool who believed that Sarah Palin had the necessary wherewithal to be a vice president. For that alone he should be executed. Fucking clown.

  • the only issue i have is the health care mandate...forcing people to cough money over to corporations...

  • ...so that no one will call him a racist.

  • fuck you john mccain

  • @tam705618 who said that? Just think if u were in Congress then you'd get a full half hour interview tomorrow and clips running all day. Ahh to live in America.

  • damn those progressives for wanting to make sure women with breast cancer don't have to pay thousands for out of pocket because they had a malign tumor before in their life.

    I'm a conservative and i hate america and boobies. Damn those parkinson's patients help yourself...who cares if u spent your life making this country a better place for us all before u lost your motor skills.

  • i've got your unsavory sausage making chicago style process right here... hanging low an danglin Senator McCain. I wouldn't give McCain health insurance if i was a private business unless the government made me. He should drop his socialist insurance policy coverage and go crazy and do his ultimate noble act of walking out of the Senate since conservatives hate the American government so much.

  • just the title of this video made me laugh. i think i might even not watch it just because I'm pretty satisfied sitting here laughing at John McCain thinking he is anything like Winston Churchill. If he says this outloud I will really fall over laughing and I'm a pretty straight faced serious person.

  • I am so ashamed to have John McCain as my representative......so ashamed.

  • There will be no other Churchill. Churchill was awsome!

  • 2:10 "its is the first time in history major change has been made on a partisan basis" he forgot social security, national bank, and SLAVERY.

    Note how McCain keepins saying again and again most americans are against it. Stupidity repeated many times becomes truth, even when most americans are for it.

    Obviously he is doing this so that he can get re-elected.
