lol wats with the comments, its jon stewart, and its funny as hell. he is pretty dam liberal but y can't conservatives respect that? and btw there isnt anything wrong with communism and socialism. its a type of government u idiots, not a way to rule... soviets got it wrong and thats y they fell. most socialist countriest r hell of a lot nicer to live in atm then america nyways. karl marx, as of now, seems like a genius.
@TheHweiss Well said. Did you write that on you cave wall too? Here is a newsflash for you. He is just a political comedian and you are a brainless idiot who somehow managed to figure out how the internet machine works enough to comment on youtube. BTW the internet implantation was a huge spending program.....a pretty progressive tax funded program too. All so you could spout your misinformed comments for the world to see. Tell me why progressive government spending is always bad again?
Wow! Lighten up folks’ it was a comedy routine and a funny bit. I thoroughly enjoy Glenn and Jon as entertainers. They are both “over the top” which makes this bit even funnier, and to quote Glenn Beck, “it was hysterical”. Really? All this hate over a comedy skit? Maybe America really is doomed … [if you thumbs up, the fabric of society will unravel as we know it, time will stand still and the sun will reverse direction and start rising in the west… Just sayin’… it COULD happen].
dont you ignorant liberal mother fuckers get sick of giving YOUR OWN MONEY to welfare recipients? (well, for the VERY SMALL portion of worthless democrats that actually pay taxes...) )
@cadetf250 things like welfare n social security r a drop n d bucket of d governments budget compared 2 all d other shit it wastes its money on everyday, but d government likes 2 throw up smoke screens like welfare to keep us fighting amongst ourselves "look over there its those lazy welfare bums thats keepin us down" r could it b dat corporate greed is what put America n d shitter, shippin jobs overseas by d minute, America sold its soul a long time ago
@thereddog223 ah yes, the old (and may I say, VERY FLAWED) trickle-down theory. You see, we'd all like to believe that rich corporations and trusts (such as OPEC) would actually like to use and set aside some of their money to pay for more labor. Here's the thing. They don't. They are cheap, rich bastards who don't pay for anymore labor. Yes, I'd love to think that if we give tax cuts to big companies they'd ACTUALLY hire more. But they haven't. History has shown us, and it's not going to change
@thereddog223 of course, because liberals want to tax everything 100% and above. No, of course not. I don't understand why our nation has gone to extremism, where conservatives want to leave the corporates alone and not tax them a cent and "supposedly"- I say this, because it is claimed liberals want this, but I'm sure very liberal people aren't brain dead like you make them out to be- want to tax everything and tax it to its fullest extent. That's the not the way this works.
@cadetf250 Huge corporations fund a huge part of both Republican/Tea Party campaigns. That is not arguable either. Koch, Heritage, Americans for Prosperity and others all spend huge on republicans and all are funded heavily on by corporate money. Oil,Coal, Wall Street, HMOs etc funnel money through those sources. Many make billions and many pay less taxes then they get back in rebate. Not to mention many received stimulus money from Bush and Obama. You say most democrats don't pay taxes??
lol conservatives are here to be made fun of huh? here's a slogan for your fucking retarded ass to MAYBE understand valen0011, "vote democratic, its easier than getting a job!" liberals are worthless wastes of air and space!
@cadetf250 vote Republican, and your money goes to the corporations. I'd rather get free money than have to watch those rich and greedy bastards get bonuses for doing absolutely nothing. Conservatism will die off soon enough when you fuckers start getting the big picture trying to have a well-run country instead of feeding the oil companies giant fucking wallets with your Hummers. Go to hell.
@cadetf250 Of course you make it easy with brainless comments like that. If you are that partisan then you deserve to be made fun of. Neither side is very good most of the time and if you are so invested in one or the other there is a 99% chance you are a moron plain and simple.
keep on praising jon dumb fuck stewart just like you praise your almighty black president who has done WHAT for this country? make gas prices soar, hitting the debt ceiling, and convincing everyone to love muslims!
@cadetf250 you're fucking ridiculous. your message of spreading fucking hate is what's propelling this country into the shitter. No fucking wonder everyone hates Americans, because everyone stereotypes us to be a racist motherfucker like you.
@cadetf250 Two of which have reallynothing to do with Obama in reality(gas and debt ceiling) and the other is racist BS. For starters he is not convincing nor is he trying to get everyone to love the Muslims. He didn't build a mosque himself at the Trade centers site. Funny enough which wasn't even at the 9/11 site nor was a actual mosque. You are just to dumb to know what is fact and fiction, News and opinion,reality and fantasy. Now go ahead and start insulting me without backing you claims.
hahaha look at all of you brain dead liberal idiots! you are all one step above an amoeba! do you stupid fucks even know what that is? burn in hell you ignorant communist left-wing cock suckers!
Wow, people give Fox so much shit for being so partisan but this guy is WAY worse and more partisan than I have ever seen on Fox (not Jon I love him, the guy at the start)
@coldasice90 and in glen beck manner, it'd have to be spelled aryan to be accurate. John Stewart has beck down very accurately. Tragic beck had so many followers.O and the lie part. Anyway enough nitpicking, damn nice video.
jon stewart is the attack Dog for the zionist elite. He's not an entertainer, he is a Israeli Mossad agent posing as a entertainer. He will attack any media personality that will expose the Jewish controlled media. Glenn Beck is doing a good job educating the American people that Jews control our president and our country. JON STEWART IS AN ISRAELI CITIZEN AND HE AND THE JEWS INTENT TO DESTROY OUR COUNTRY.
JEWS DON'T CARE FOR WHITE OR BLACK PEOPLE, THEY SEE US AS ANIMALS.
@ksdmd14 most people think hes funny...in fact in a poll of the most trusted names in news, he was voted number 1....not oreilly...not hannity...not beck.....not larry king.....it was stewart
Jon Stewart to me is basically the liberal version of Glenn Beck. Im saying that as someone who votes liberally and always has. He's snickering, mocking and divisive. I wish we could discuss issues and get away from clowns like these guys.
@IggyM you dont watch the show. No one that watches his show would label him as just some typical left whing whacko.......he goes after everyone....and thinks both parties are funny then....
@IggyM interesting....i watch him alot....and u say u watched him plenty which means u dont watch him alot....and yet....u know more of what he does then me?....did i get that right?......and by the way.......when i say he goes after everyone, am i wrong?.....i mean...u should know since u watch him LESS THEN I do....
@DjBobbyLosAngeles Saying Ive watched him plenty... means to you I don't watch him a lot? I don't follow your logic. Plenty=a lot. I said he MOSTLY focuses on the right. I never said he doesn't go after both sides. I said he goes after one side much more. Sorry, you aren't making much sense.
@IggyM No and il tell u why. First if u watched him plenty u would know he goes after everyone (but u dont know that, so u obviously dont watch him plenty)...secondly, u could have meant it in a way like "Oh ive watched him plnety, but u dont watch him consistnetly or anymore...like it could mean that uve watched him plenty enough before general....and no im making sense..ur drama queen gene is making u re-act like a girl by making a big deal out of this..And yes he goes after right more so what
@DjBobbyLosAngeles haaa drama queen gene? whatever. you just spent a lot of time making no point at all. reread my first post, Im not repeating myself for you.
@IggyM no im making good points u just cant admit that u dont knw what the fuck ur talking about...stewart goes after the right more , so what?...what is ur point?.....im not gonna go back just fucken tell me or go put on talk radio and support ur heros that host those programs.....
@DjBobbyLosAngeles Learn to scroll down. I already said my point of view. No, you've made no points- other than to claim plenty means "not a lot"- go watch some more tv.
Beck really has gone off the deep end sadly enough. This video is hilarious! Jon did a good, although extremist impression and it was great! He is a wonderful entertainer, but his real political views are good. You should try to catch him head to head with Bill O'reilly it's great!
All that charade is to ridicule and discredit Alex Jones - who is becoming extremely dangerous for the Main Stream. Glen Beck is knowingly or unknowingly sacrificing himself for the higher cause.
okay I get It in a way your right........but we're not stupid either lol I think we can see the stupidity that glen beck spews and decide for our selves whats true and not true lol we may be young but we are FAR from stupid
There are those who really believe that Glen Beck is telling them the truth. All of them Beck, O' Reilly, Hannity, Obermann, Schultz are just entertainers. But even entertainers have a sense of responsibility to communicate to their audience with a high degree of honesty. I don't see it from Beck.
it could be argued that it is acually vice versa ... having Mr. Beck , a former comedian AND a mormon shouting at the politicians !
The thing that realy angers me is ... that the politicians do <not shout back< ... seems like there are a lot of wackos out there mate , who take the former comedian BECK far to serious ! :-)))
@thelankonk HAHA you sound exactly like Beck trying to make a point, but always coming out on the short side of the debate.
Fox = LIES msnbc=Bias
In 2003 a university of maryland study found those who primarily watch Fox News are significantly more likely to have misperceptions, while those who primarily listen to NPR or watch PBS are significantly less likely.
Jon Stewarts facial expression in the beginning was hilarious! Totally looked like Glenn Becks. Glenn Beck seems like a crazy person most of the time, but I cannot stand MSNBC to be honest, or CNN. They are just a bunch of puppets to whomever is a Democrat. And Fox loves all the Republicans. Political parties are stupid. In all honesty, neither party is a true Democrat or Republican anymore. The Dems are like the Socialists, and Reps are like the Dems! And I never liked the original Dems.
The irony is, MSNBC completely ignores where they and Beck agree that this started with Bush. MSNBC and the rest of the media never ceased calling Bush a fascist, but somehow they conveniently forget that Beck, although he never went that far, was pretty much in agreement on a lot of things regarding the former president. But Stewart is an excellent satirist. It's just too bad his rally was less about satire and more about being co-opted by politics. I think he knew it, too.
True! MSNBC and Beck both hated Bush. The thing is, Beck has his certain ideology which is quasi Libertarian while MSNBC love the Democrats, whomever they are.
Very wrong. Welfare was created by Otto Von Bismarck whom used it in his version of State Socialism. Now if you are referring to the US, FDR tried to make fit for our society, but you have to also remember that Mussolini and the economic adviser to Hitler thought that FDR was stealing Mussolini's Fascist economic policies. If you read about the history of Fascism, there are some quotes of Mussolini saying that he really thought FDR was trying to steal his economic system
Please stop using "whom" and "whomever". You don't understand their use, and they're optional anyway. In three posts you've used these words three times and got it right once. Just use "who" and "whoever", OK? Thanks.
More seriously, I agree that today's Democrats and Republicans are very different from the D's and R's of a century ago. Today's Republicans would have no problem with slavery; they'd probably be fighting a Democrat push to give slaves free health care.
Neither party support slavery today silly. Where do you hear that? Political parties do not support slavery, racists do. There are racists on both parties and there are racist Independents.
There is truth to what both men say: Jon Stewart is open-minded, intelligent and honest. The difference is Glenn Beck actually knows what he`s talking about...but sometimes FOX`s agenda limits what he says twisting his messages.
Listen to Glenn Beck before you judge him. He understands the cycles of social evolution that have been ongoing for thousands of years.
@mattyelle1 I agree with you completely - bar "Glenn Beck actually knows what he's talking about". I think they're both highly intelligent individuals with simply differing ideologies.
Too many people on here judge without listening to both sides.
@WHATtheTUGNUT Glad to hear someone else here can think for themselves. People don't listen to people they feel aren't credible. If that's so, then why are they so opposed to listening to them?
Anyways thanks for your honest response...need more good people like you to help awaken these sheeps ;)
@ImNotThere100 Does it matter? Although Glenn Beck is the subject of credibility attacks in America, the guy isn't outright an idiot. Think about it. There is some truth to it...he works for Fox so can`t tell his side of it entirely. If you understand what is happening in modern economics, you can watch glenn and weave out the BS.
Jon has excellent intentions, but Glenn understands something more than Jon. If you wish to know more, tune out of TV and use internet news.
@mattyelle1 All i can say for him is that he seems genuinely sincere and doesn't descend to o'reilly's level of snide BS or Ann Coulter's absolute level of deranged, but too many of his arguments are overly simplistic and/or kneejerk.
@ImNotThere100 True...but his audience is Fox watchers, lol. He has to make overly simplistic arguments. But he is right in saying that there are many similarities in the rise and fall of Germany in the US today.
Glenn has a hidden agenda and must sometimes promote BS...but doesn't change the fact that his underlying messages hold tremendous truth. Jon is much more genuine and has much less of an agenda...but he doesn't understand that underlying notion that Glenn does.
LOL I can't even tell if you're serious or parodying people that would watch Beck. Oh, yeah, Beck is extremely insightful but those bastards at Foxnews who share all of the same views are somehow holding him back from his hidden COMPLETELY RIGHTEOUS AGENDA!
His only agenda is to fool the simple minded into watching his show by using fear as a motivator, as all of FoxNews does.
Wrong. Sorry. I live in Tampa Bay, where Glenn Beck did his radio show before 9/11. This was always him. Though he used to do a pretty funny "satan" bit back in those days.
You're saying he's worth listening to but you have to weave out all the bullshit? Heh. Yeah, pal, let me know how that works out for ya.
@MentosMan727 Sure. Believe what you want. But I'm basing this on a complex understanding of the federal reserve operations, America's balance sheet, and China emerging as a super power. If you don't want to believe cycles happen in society and that conspiracies are true within your government, that's fine. But at least protect your family just in case: buy food while it's cheap. Invest out of paper and into silver.
this is kinda off topic, but i was wondering if anyone could tell me what is wrong with communism? i know there was the cold war, and fear of bombing and such, but what was really wrong with communism? I'm just genuinely curious because i suck at history and politics.
@jeremalaria it works in theory but in practice, in order to truly make a decision, at some point somebody needs to make it, you cant all make it. and as soon as somebody is perceived as greater than the equality communism goes for, then its no longer communism. if you want a better understanding, read Animal Farm by George Orwell, fantastic correlation between what happens when communism goes awry in humanity.
This is Hilarious!!! Yeahhhhh our team!!! Were better and smarter than they are!!!! I love watching Johnny make fun of everyone. Comedy Central is my news media of choice because Johnny is soooo funny!!! I stop playing Halo everynight to watch his show. I LLLLove the fact that every show is a surprise!!! You never know if he is going to make fun of O'Riley...Limbaugh...Beck...Fox News...or sometimes on a good night he will make fun of all 4.
@Shnufkin, a true patriot sticks up for the values in the constitution and the USA is suppose to be a capitalist nation not a socialist. who says life is fair? nobody but we can't make life fair either. No, because they can change if they want or they can starve and die if they want.
i saw a gb show where he was talking about a hebrew tablet that was found in north america and it was thought to be from native american times. he said history tried to cover it up and all that conspiricy theory shit. well the mormons beleive that the native americans are realy isrealites. glenn beck is a mormon. (its a really absurd religion, but then again all religiona are) it sounds like glenn beck is trying to justify his religion with all this bs. watch this: watch?v=jFZ1jVO3-OE
@planetterrace There was no truth in what you just said. Though that might mean that you actually believe what you just said. . . But no, you couldn't, cause no one's that stupid.
Glenn beck is funny and entertaining but this was funny i couldn't help but laugh at the reenactment. Glenn Beck is cool but this was funny. Also it goes to show that liberals go around name calling and making fun of people who are not like them and how rude they are as people. Compared to polite civilized Conservatives.
@JBBlitz Yeah...spreading lies and moving the goalposts of political debate is not civilised. It's called TAKING PEOPLE FOR A RIDE. The sooner you realise this the better. The right in America is taking advantage of the average America's stupidity. Educate yourself.
@Shnufkin, i take advantage of them, its called having them work for you for lower wages and vote in your favor, either by getting people to vote left or right, i support the right for my own benefit and get others to as well. media spreads likes all the time. i am in college i am educating myself.
@JBBlitz I'm not sure I understand your point. You support the right because they allow you to take advantage of cheap labour? But you're in college, why do you need cheap labour??
@Shnufkin, cause they support capitalism, where the succesful get rewarded and those who don't work or do the thinking do not. i am an anti socialist pro capitalist and this is best enforced under the Republicans than the Democrats. this however is just one big reason why i am on the right side of things.
@JBBlitz Tbh man I cant fault your logic. You support the republicans because they're more likely to repress wages - ie impoverish the poor while enriching the rich. You figure that you're gonna be rich. How gloriously selfish of you
But tbh mate, no one wants to be poor. Saying that it's the poor's fault that they're poor is a 19th century attitude that rests on the assumption that everyone has equal access to society's resources. In fact, the rich are favoured by the distribution of resources
@Shnufkin actually you can get a loan to pay off college or join the military to get free college and than with those skills make something of yourself, so now anyone can make a living if they try. I know i will be upper middle class and maybe in the rich. anyone can also loan money to start a business, so the people that are not born with a silver spoon, the rich are the smart and the poor are not as bright and capitalism is suppose to reward the smart and not reward the lazy or dumb. support.
@JBBlitz No. Again you are assuming that America is some capitalist wonderland of complete social mobility. No society has ever achieved complete social mobility, least of all the USA. People do not have access to equal quality of complusory education, therefore they do not have equal access to higher education. If people are born in deprived areas they will have less access to jobs. Of course sometimes people will try and fuck the system, but they are in a minority.
@JBBlitz There is more than enough money to go around lol. If the UK can afford a welfare state then the US can. Regarding income inequality, yes it's everywhere, to suggest that we should equalise it would be socialism. The US is obviously not ready for that. But governments should seek to aid the worst off. And if that means taking some money from the rich to pay for it then so be it. They can afford it. They're not gonna starve if you take a few dollars from them.
@Shnufkin, what do you think obama is doing and why hes hated by the Americans right now? hes spreading the wealth by increasing our taxes. hard workers and intellectuals are feeling discredited for what they do now. We don't want a welfare state and there already is welfare for the lazy. so far not only are the rich being taxed to death but the middle class too to pay off the poor cause of obama the socialist. plus obamas legislation is costing trillions and a big rise in taxes for everyone.
@JBBlitz Yes you have repeated your point a number of times now. The poor are poor because they're lazy; the rich are rich because they work hard. Isn't life neat and wonderful and doesn't everyone get what they deserve. How lovely.
You're right, life isn't fair. Ans that's why we should protect the weak and vulnerable members of society. Surely you cannot be so brutish as to argue with that.
@Shnufkin I think the military opportunity to pay for college and loans you pay back after working for 6 months after college is all the opportunity anyone needs and once your in college you have all the other stuff you need to live too. welfare checks are just waste of money and the person will become nothing and also will not want to work.
@JBBlitz Regarding Obama's spending, the three fiscally conservative Republican presidents (Reagan, Bush Snr, Bush Jr) account for 80% of the national debt. 80%. Why? 'Defence' spending, i.e. funneling money into the hugely inefficient, subsidised (some would say socialised) military-industrial complex. You need taxes to fund that.
@JBBlitz 8 years of Reagan the debt increased by $2.7 trillion. 4 years of George I the debt increased by 1.5 trillion. 8 years of George II the debt increased by $6.2 trillion. Compare that to 9.5 years of Clinton and Obama the debt increased by $2.6 trillion combined. The combined total of two Democrats doesn't even equal Reagan, the Republican poster boy for "fiscal conservatism."
@Shnufkin because they did tax cuts and yes you have a deficit when that happens but i care what happens to my pocket not the goverments. I support the defense spending because i don't want another 9/11 to happen again and i want to live safe. by the way i specifically said the "Americans" are angry because of the spending but also were going to actually have to pay for when the taxes are implemented next year. Taxes were low under bush and will rise with obama and i don't want that.
@Shnufkin Obama so far is not even 2 years and already more than 2 trillion to the deficit, so if you keep that up, that will be over 10 trillion if 8 years and about 6 trillion in 4 with obama, both paries spend but the demns spend more and raise taxes more in order to do so. i don't need the goverment as much as others and that might be one reason i am more to the right.
@Shnufkin ignoant disrespectful liberal, your country is destroyed thanks to leftist bastards with higher taxes, more goverment and less freedom. go look at your history of failures of left wing nuts.
@JBBlitz Haha! The UK has universal healthcare and better elementary education than the USA. As well as lower crime. Why don't you look at the UK's history? You obviously know nothing about it.
The right wingers in power in this country at the moment are trying to reduce government spending to 'tackle the deficit' - exactly what you want Obama to do. But all it's doing is harming the recovery and pushing us into a second recession.
Now piss off, your stupidity is starting to irritate me.
@Shnufkin better education eh no we have better colleges and universities and more for the public. Privatized health-care is cheaper and you get seen immediately. yeah lower crime although you have trouble controlling terrorists. Obama is creating a double recession and Cameron will probably recover the damage brown did. lower taxes and less goverment spending makes it easier for business to conduct business and create jobs. you obviously know nothing about the economy.
@JBBlitz LOL cheaper?The UK spends 5% of its GDP on healthcare; the US spends 14.5% of its GDP on healthcare. The US wastes its money on prescription drugs and unnecessary treatment - doctors in the US have an interest to treat patients, even if they're not ill! And yeah...you can get private healthcare in the UK if you want it.
Regarding terrorism, evidence please?
And you are wrong on the economy. A large section of the UK economy depends on the public sector, which Cameron is destroying.
@Shnufkin less out of my pocket with USA and i agree they should get rid of medicare and medicaid because that is government spending we don't need. Prescription drugs prevents drug abuse and keeps people safe. no treatment is unnecessary if it works. Doctors do their job and get paid and doctors are not drug sellers. USA Economy is almost completely private sector. Cameron hopefully will privatize it for more jobs and more money, private sector if given the chance creates more jobs than gov
@JBBlitz umm... prescripition drugs are abused more than any other narcotic in the u.s. and also what else are we going to use with the money if we get rid of medicare and medicaid? are we going to use it for a health care reform when all of the senior citizens and veterans are dying because they dont have the money to buy prescriptions or eat or live for that matter? or are we going to be sending our senators on a "well deserved vacation" paid for by hard working citizens?
The taxes we Americans pay are extremely low when you compare them to the rest of the Western world.
You're so spoiled that you don't even realize what it is you are whining about. Quit parroting scaremongering pundits who want to turn us into a theocratic, hyper-classist society, and start thinking for yourself. It's LIBerating.
Failure to pull your head out and actually do some objective analysis will relegate you and your kind to the sands of time. Fact.
@sunspotpixie, I know our taxes are lower than rest of the world and its thanks the Republicans for that and people like tea party who have pushed for it and will keep lowering our taxes and pressuring people to do so. i want obama out of office because hes destroying the country thats all like most american people yeah dumb liberal. you fucking libreals want the goverment to take care of you, you guys are spoiled. Republicans will take back our country in 2010 and will lower taxes even more.
You can't just lower taxes endlessly my friend. Plus, Reagan, the Tea Party's hero, raised taxes. Several times. Bush Sr. lied and raised taxes when he said he wouldn't.
They are low enough. All "lower taxes and smaller government" is is a false promise the right uses to lure in the gullible nitwits who seem to be tuned permanently into those dog whistles.
The rich would have never become rich, were it not for the taxes that pay to build and maintain our infrastructure.
@sunspotpixie When ever there is war taxes go up, when there is not they can go down. Bush Jr despite Iraq war gave a 4200 dollars tax cut to all Americans. if we would get rid of those social services that encourage people to rely on the care fo goverment we could cut taxes even more. Tea Party is pushing some libertarianism in the Republican party which could lead to less goverment and less taxes if they want reelection or financial support. These GOP candidates, allot are libertarian now.
@JBBlitz Yes, and libertarianism IS SHORT TERM THINKING. At least the brand that current "libertarians" are pushing. People just grab onto that label because it sounds cool, edgy, and "independent".
YOU WILL NEVER BE INDEPENDENT IN A CIVIL SOCIETY. Grow the FARK up!
How can someone not approve in social justice?

The Dems are like the Socialists, and Reps are like the Dems! And I never liked the original Dems.

The irony is, MSNBC completely ignores where they and Beck agree that this started with Bush. MSNBC and the rest of the media never ceased calling Bush a fascist, but somehow they conveniently forget that Beck, although he never went that far, was pretty much in agreement on a lot of things regarding the former president. But Stewart is an excellent satirist. It's just too bad his rally was less about satire and more about being co-opted by politics. I think he knew it, too.

If you read about the history of Fascism, there are some quotes of Mussolini saying that he really thought FDR was trying to steal his economic system

@JBBlitz Regarding Obama's spending, the three fiscally conservative Republican presidents (Reagan, Bush Snr, Bush Jr) account for 80% of the national debt. 80%. Why? 'Defence' spending, i.e. funneling money into the hugely inefficient, subsidised (some would say socialised) military-industrial complex. You need taxes to fund that.
Shnufkin 1 year ago
@JBBlitz 8 years of Reagan the debt increased by $2.7 trillion. 4 years of George I the debt increased by 1.5 trillion. 8 years of George II the debt increased by $6.2 trillion. Compare that to 9.5 years of Clinton and Obama the debt increased by $2.6 trillion combined. The combined total of two Democrats doesn't even equal Reagan, the Republican poster boy for "fiscal conservatism."
Shnufkin 1 year ago
@Shnufkin because they did tax cuts and yes you have a deficit when that happens but i care what happens to my pocket not the goverments. I support the defense spending because i don't want another 9/11 to happen again and i want to live safe. by the way i specifically said the "Americans" are angry because of the spending but also were going to actually have to pay for when the taxes are implemented next year. Taxes were low under bush and will rise with obama and i don't want that.
JBBlitz 1 year ago
@Shnufkin Obama so far is not even 2 years and already more than 2 trillion to the deficit, so if you keep that up, that will be over 10 trillion if 8 years and about 6 trillion in 4 with obama, both paries spend but the demns spend more and raise taxes more in order to do so. i don't need the goverment as much as others and that might be one reason i am more to the right.

Prescription drugs prevents drug abuse and keeps people safe. no treatment is unnecessary if it works. Doctors do their job and get paid and doctors are not drug sellers. USA Economy is almost completely private sector. Cameron hopefully will privatize it for more jobs and more money, private sector if given the chance creates more jobs than gov

@JBBlitz umm... prescripition drugs are abused more than any other narcotic in the u.s. and also what else are we going to use with the money if we get rid of medicare and medicaid? are we going to use it for a health care reform when all of the senior citizens and veterans are dying because they dont have the money to buy prescriptions or eat or live for that matter? or are we going to be sending our senators on a "well deserved vacation" paid for by hard working citizens?

The taxes we Americans pay are extremely low when you compare them to the rest of the Western world.
You're so spoiled that you don't even realize what it is you are whining about. Quit parroting scaremongering pundits who want to turn us into a theocratic, hyper-classist society, and start thinking for yourself. It's LIBerating.
Failure to pull your head out and actually do some objective analysis will relegate you and your kind to the sands of time. Fact.
The party is over.

Republicans will take back our country in 2010 and will lower taxes even more.

You can't just lower taxes endlessly my friend. Plus, Reagan, the Tea Party's hero, raised taxes. Several times. Bush Sr. lied and raised taxes when he said he wouldn't.
They are low enough. All "lower taxes and smaller government" is is a false promise the right uses to lure in the gullible nitwits who seem to be tuned permanently into those dog whistles.
The rich would have never become rich, were it not for the taxes that pay to build and maintain our infrastructure.

@sunspotpixie When ever there is war taxes go up, when there is not they can go down. Bush Jr despite Iraq war gave a 4200 dollars tax cut to all Americans. if we would get rid of those social services that encourage people to rely on the care fo goverment we could cut taxes even more. Tea Party is pushing some libertarianism in the Republican party which could lead to less goverment and less taxes if they want reelection or financial support. These GOP candidates, allot are libertarian now.

Please. Look at the LONG TERM.
DAMN IT.
We have become such short term thinkers!

@JBBlitz Yes, and libertarianism IS SHORT TERM THINKING. At least the brand that current "libertarians" are pushing. People just grab onto that label because it sounds cool, edgy, and "independent".
YOU WILL NEVER BE INDEPENDENT IN A CIVIL SOCIETY. Grow the FARK up!
