Uncle Jay Explains the News - September 3, 2007

[DenBeauvais]

Again you failed to mention Dr. Ron Paul. What gives? Ron Paul is leading in all the poles and somehow you missed that? You either have your own agenda or you are politically ignorant.

Unsubscribing now!!!

[wildgoosespeeder]

That word is "constituent", right? I think that would have been a better news word for September 1, 2007...

With that aside, this is very funny and insightful. Thanks Uncle Jay!

FUNNY

[BaneMartrx]

EVERYONE BLAMES THE PRESIDENT FOR RUINING THE COUNTRY. NOW YOU ALL SEE THAT NO MATTER WHO IS PRES. OUR CONGRESS WILL SCREW US OVER. THE PRES CAN'T DO HIS JOB WHEN THEY DON'T WORK. WE NEED TO REVAMP CONGRESS AND VOTE IN SOME NEW PEOPLE!!!!!!

[zdogy1]

@BaneMartrx nope clinton had the same problem but guess what as a electrician my wage in 1993 was $14 hour and by 2000 it was $28 hr and still climbing, also it was $18 hr in 1988 before reagonomics like bushnomics except for the stock and mortgage fraud and houseing bubble huge deficet and a transfer of wealth to the top 1 %, actualy reagan created the first houseing bubble in history .I see obama as a in the middle president who is also ignoring the 99ers liked him until recently, clinton!

[drjdsjr]

OMG! I kind of rant on drjdsjr.com but this is just so good, so clear, so ... good gawd, what can I say? What can anyone say?

[olhippi]

The more days off the better cause they're up to no good anyway.

[JustAnUpTownGirl]

Not only a part time job but a HELL of a great retirement package and the best health insurance available, oh and if you really need them Secret Service Agents for LIFE!

[denikerman]

Cancel SNL and give Uncle Jay the time slot. Atleast he makes me laugh !

[carultch]

@denikerman Every time I try to watch SNL, I find the opening sketch absolutely hilarious, and I find everything else to plummet downhill in to the realm of lame as the sketches go on.

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't the purpose of a TV show to KEEP people wanting to watch it?

[AnashaL]

It doesn't get funnier than this! Amazing this guy is! Can't stay in a funk w/him out there!!

[girard1973]

Excellent!  The government sucks! Both sides.

I know let's allow them to make more decisions on how to control our lives after all morons need idiots to control their existance.

[knuxkid]

pretty sure this was 2008

[bldodson38]

I thought it was excellent!

[Sandman395]

Uncle Jay's AWESOME!

[espokane]

Wait a minute here...wasn't Congress originally intended to be a part-time job? True, $165,200 is pretty decent pay for a part time job, and there's the whole immunity from arrest thing, but that might explain why they want to be reelected. My point is that it's a bit silly to point out all the days they're not "at work" in the capitol--at least that has a historical reason. There are many other problems to focus on.

[igorvitch]

If you're all so much superior, maybe you should shut your

cynical yaps and run for the job.

[majorlakerfan22]

yeah, except unless you are a lawyer or are already rich, you can't...

"normal" everyday people can't just "run for the job"...

[wingnut4427]

All that time off & yet they still find time to fuck up our country. & lets not forget How they pretty much gave their authority over to the president & pretty much said "Fuck it". Now they don't have to work at all ! Mean wile Our national Debt grows,Our Economy takes a nose dive, our gas prices rise, More people are killed in needless wars & our kids get more stupid & Dependant on drugs to alter their minds EVERY DAY !! Yeah.. Looks like a hard fucking job ! Anyone else would have been fired.

[raz2050]

can someone say if this is real?

[malley0221]

Uncle Jay needs to be Commander-in-Chief. SOOOO, He can send all sitting politicans in Washington, to the border of Iran...Mike

[cycleman7]

A suggestion to Uncle Jay: Since YouTube cuts titles to 22 characters, it is currently impossible to locate UJ's videos by topic: All are listed as "Uncle Jay Explains the ...

How about "Uncle J - Congress..." "Uncle J - Women Candidates" This would come still be shortened to : Uncle J - Women Candid... But this would be a help...

[Sormand62]

I Love Uncle Jay! Here rocks!

[Mark5610]

Sounds like the 100 days of action set by Democrats Reid & Pelosi.

[igorvitch]

Right away blame the Dems. They didn't get us where we are today. They've already done more for the average American than the Pugs did in eight years. All the Pugs did was for the richest of the rich and no one else.

[holliemark]

Here's to term limits for ALL....

[trisi1977]

Hahaha. Hilarious.

[terriergal]

SHEER BRILLIANCE!

[harleydaze]

Now I know why we never had a Congressman visit our high school on Career Day... they were all on vacation!!! LOL

[Robkat3751]

Go Uncle Jay!

[dellthinker]

Oh god i hate politics.

[jamesjack88]

I am sorry but this is a bit inaccurate. My friend's father works for Congress. You have no idea what it's like. There is a lot more alcohol.

[monkeysinacan]

Brilliant!!!! subscribed!!

"The United States was supposed to have a limited government because the founders knew governmental power attracts swarms of crooks, demagogues and despots as surely as horse manure attracts swarms of horseflies." -- Rick Gaber

[zoromaskcoming]

And they complain about the iraqi parliament, when they do same thing about recess. and at time of war. (Not I m saying that's good, or IQ parliament is better, nope, it is worse for sure.)

[AzraelsJudgement]

I am going to be a congressman and just un-pass laws when everyone else is away "working" :)

[jesus2359]

If only that would work... Unfourtunately you need to wade through miles of yellow tape to get anything done anyways... Most contiversial things are just put off until they kind of die...

[lidixmang]

Typical government worker. State, Federal, Congress- they all milk the system for tons of time off. I know this because I've been a State and Federal employee.

[jesus2359]

Typical congress conversation: "Hmmm... I think we should pass a law to give ourselves a raise, afterall, we are practically running the country!" (Snicker snicker. Yeah right.) This is an awesome video.

[russianracehorse]

Brilliant! Five stars + subscription!

[Ahippi]

No wonder only in death well they leave that job!.

[MrDonut1958]

Hee Hee Hee Thanks Jay you hit the nail on the head!!
