Still If you believe that the misogynist, Islam hating, Capitol punishment liking, gay bashers of the south aren't also racist and ignorant to anyone who doesn't fit into the WASP category then sir you are lost. If every Republican had the same beliefs as Ron Paul then I would totally agree with you but the conservative half of the political spectrum is much more variable and dangerous than the liberal half. Liberalism is the future.
@MATTNOUTCHCOS : Liberalism gets you Detroit, dummy. Liberals have had total and complete control of America's inner cities for close to a century. If your ideology is so sound, why are they such utter shitholes? California was the richest state in the union when it was a republican state and now it's the brokest state since becoming a blue state. The worst places is America are all firmly in the hands of democrats. Liberalism is a total failure and only fools subscribe to it.
@tomthefunky That is tripe, you Conservatives are truly lost Murdoch has brainwashed you only recently has California become poorer than it was, the whole worlds in crisis its the same as everywhere else. Also have you ever thought the reason Liberalism is in cities is because of the poverty, not the other way around. Haven't you given any thought to the theory the reason people vote Democrat is because they are sick of Bushs and McCains protecting the oil barons, and not the ones who need help.
@MATTNOUTCHCOS: You've had a century to change around the poverty of the inner cities. Detroit was possibly the greatest manufacturing city in history and look what you've have done to it. It's a fucking wasteland. Every time I bring it up to a liberal they immediate change the subject like you did. OIL BARONS? Nice deflection, pal. You target business with excessive regulation and taxation and they flee. You overburdon citizens with property taxes and they do the same. Liberalism is a cancer.
@tomthefunky Actually fool, the reason Detroit has become poverty stricken, is the boom and bust capitalist Economy. Don't jump on that and say i'm a communist, because I'm not, just someone who acknowledges capitalism has faults. the Occupy wall street protesters aren't there for no reason. Inner cities are failing because America has equality and fair pay, we cannot keep up with the effective slave labor in Asia, and if Detroit's Car building industry costs us fair pay then I don't want it.
@MATTNOUTCHCOS Capitalism built Detroit. Liberalism destroyed it. You think government intervention in the marketplace is the answer for everything. The more you tax and regulate an activity, the less that activity takes place. When that activity is commerce, commerce disappears. THAT is what happened to Detroit. You people have no ideas for generating wealth.
And your not a commie. You're worse. You hate the very system that has given you a lifestyle people in the 3rd world would kill for.
@tomthefunky That last point hit home, Nah I am kidding your just another moronic prick from somewhere out in the sticks. AGAIN- I don't hate capitalism, my ideas would build on it, ending boom and bust would mean steady economic growth. You seem to be under the illusion that by creating wealth for the richest 1%, wealth will go to all, that is false. I believe in lower taxation for small businesses, and I believe in using big business tax to help those who aren't getting employed by them
@MATTNOUTCHCOS: You would know how to achieve steady economic growth if it punched you in the face. Lower taxation for small business? Tell that to your tax-crazy liberal friends who oppose that. Tax big business? Then they turn around and raise the cost of their products or they flee to other countries. Tax the rich? The rich just hide their money in tax shelters. Now, what? What's your next move, pal? I just shot down your bullshit cliche- ridden ideas. What do do now?
@tomthefunky No you didn't they're still legitimate, Big businesses wont raise the prices and wont run away 1)where would they go, America is too big of a consumer society to leave 2)they wouldn't get any sales from high prices, the rich can't just hide all their money they're not fucking batman u fool, EVERY Democrat is for Lower taxation where and when its economically affordable, we don't just want to steal American's money.
@MATTNOUTCHCOS: They go to countries with low corporate tax rates. Example? Ireland in the 1990's. Read up on that. The rich can't hide their money? Oh, how naive you are. Read up on how John D. Rockefeller did it. It's called a Swiss bank account. And you can tax the rich a 100% and do the same with those corporations you despise and it won't solve jack shit. The democrats are for lower taxation? Bullshit because nowhere where they govern do low tax rates exist. Give me a break.
@tomthefunky I will, mostly because I'm bored of you and you are completely lost, you can tax the rich they can't hide all their money. Ireland is a prime example of Boom and BUST its what I want to end, you don't see any other POV because you know your pupulist tax cuts will put the country in more debt, this will be my last message as ur boring me
@tomthefunky Progressiveness is the way of the future, you cannot stop it, just look at the Middle east. Even the least Liberal places on the planet are now accepting more than one Idea. You Republicans will be finished within the century.
It's so sad that a fake news show gets a majority of the praise in the media outlets for bipartisanship. The media has failed us in the last 20 years and become a polarizing propaganda machine for both party's. During the Clinton administration it was all about a swelled surplus w/o bothering to check how it was happening and blowjobs. And Bush, Christ, they let the white house get away with torture, blurring the line between church and state, invading a country over a lie...and on...and on
Read the Declaration of Independence, the US Constitution, the Federalist Papers, Bastiat's The Law. Know the history of USA or you can't support & defend it. Restore America 2012 Ron Paul RonPaul2012dotcom 1835 “Minute” on India written by Thomas Babington Macaulay; A government cannot be wrong in punishing fraud or force, but it is almost certain to be wrong if, abandoning its legitimate function, it tells private individuals that it knows their business better than they know it themselves.
Go Jon! It's nice to see someone in his position being bi-partisan, we need more of this. Both sides are correct, and at the same time both sides are wrong in their ideals.
@emosucks89 The pretense in elections is that the great conflict is between the two major parties. The reality is that there is a much bigger conflict that the two parties jointly wage against large numbers of Americans who are represented by neither party and against powerless millions around the world.
@dapop1001 Yeah, it's a huge problem. Between the insane partisanship of American politics and the "vote for the lesser of two evils" attitude that most undecided Americans have these days, people forget that they have other options. I have often said that voting should be mandatory for all US citizens, it would really change the demographic of parties that have a shot at getting elected.
Genius to a fool is bullshit. You can't satisfy anyone. Jon Stewart is intelligent but if someone is brainwashed by Fox News bullshit, it almost impossible to ask him to applaud for Jon's insights because he is conditioned to view that angle only from that perspective.
Freedom of speech without sensitivity easily breeds extremist rhetoric.
Thing I love about Jon Stewart is that he doesn't pic sides. He will pimpslap both sides at every point he thinks they're being stupid. It's a pity that shows that are labeled "Comedic News Satire" should actually be taken more seriously than the shows that are actually labeled as "News".
@DathanielTDK You're right, that's a crazy thing about america..
Jon doesn't pick sides, the reason there might be more criticism of republicans and tea-party-people is because of the extremist nature that exist in parts of these organizations. There's really just more comedy and important observations to be made there as a massive misinformation phenomenon is taking place daily via television
@bobbollu Sure, you could view OWS as extreme, but I'm afraid you've forgotten the topic (what Jon covers).
Jon covers OWS, you see - many segments lately has been at or about the movement.
To me OWS isn't extreme, to me it's natural. The world has gone madder than ever before and I'm actually surprised OWS didn't come earlier, the capitalist market has gone too far. I'm not a communist, but the rich have to much power, our democracy is falling apart to the recent clash (circa 1980-2011)
@DathanielTDK You're right, that's a crazy thing about america..
Jon doesn't pick sides, the reason there might be more criticism of republicans and tea-party-people is because of the extremist nature that exist in parts of these organizations. There's really just more comedy and important observations to be made there as a massive misinformation phenomenon is taking place daily via television
@DathanielTDK He accuses the Republicans of being corrupt, evil and stupid, but also diabolically clever (how else to explain their popularity). He accuses the Democrats of being well meaning but not cunning or ruthless enough (how else to explain why the American public rejects so many of their policy points).
@DrCruel Every person is informed by a "world view". Any entity that attempts to say otherwise should be avoided. Stewart has never said he was and unbiased observer. Fox news"fair and balanced" and"we report you decide" are much more misleading. Your assessment is oversimplified to the extreme and therefore of no use. If you disagree with Stewart's opinion, tell us why he is wrong.
@finerbiner I didn't claim he was a biased pundit that nevertheless tries to remain objective and rational. I said he's a Leftist hack that promotes his ideology whenever he gets the chance. I also claimed his motivation is in catering to his moonbat sophomore socialist fans.
He doesn't voice an opinion. He promotes an ideology, frequently with misleading spots on his show, and occasionally with outright lies. He's guilty of exactly what he claims FOX News is doing, and it's deliberate.
@DrCruel I have seen Stewart on Fox. He never has claimed to be "fair and balanced" or to be a member of the news media. He is a satirist. The finest of this generation. he pokes fun while making a point.
FOX is a news organization that claims to be even handed. That is an outright lie and in no way comparable to Stewart's show.
@finerbiner What is it about FOX News that makes them a lightning rod for such controversy - and not, say, MSNBC or CBS News? And what has any of this to do with Jon Stewart being a Leftist hack? If his claim is that partisan politics in the media is "hurting America", why then is he practicing exactly that?
He's as much of a "satirist" as Rush Limbaugh. Given the venom I've heard directed at Limbaugh for decades, why is it that Stewart is being applauded for the same "satirical" behavior?
This show is soooo left-wing like most other main stream media. You can be sure that Stewart almost never has anything good to say about conservatives, Libertarians, or Republicans. He is always there to show his true colors and kiss tons of Socalistic ass while spewing such misleading, one-sided views and trying to pass his show off as a viable current affair show.
@MATTNOUTCHCOS What you call fearmongering, most call facts. What you call "progressive", most call Socalism. To be concerned about hyperinflation with our current state of economy has got to be fearmongering, right? 14 Trillion in debt is just some big number, it's obviously not a reason to be concerned.
@ResinatedLung No what I call Fearmongering is Fearmongering and the future is Progressive centre left politics not Socialism which isn't as bad as conservative by the way. 14 trillion in debt is a huge number but not one that you sacrifice your ideals for. You really think that Republican tax cuts are the way to reduce debt thats increasing it douchebag. When Murdochs Gang attack rip into healthcare reforms just think of the UK which has a nationalised health system its fair and brilliant
@MATTNOUTCHCOS I am not a liberal or a conservative, republican nor democrat, socialist nor libertarian...I am an American. I dont think that tax cuts will help us bring down the debt, I know it will. Everyone has to make sacrifices in order to fix what WE have caused. Taxes must go up, SS has to be re-thought and changed, healthcare has to be re-designed, unions must be reigned in, college tuition needs to be strongly reduced, schools need to be privetized, foreign aid needs to be halted
@MATTNOUTCHCOS I have no doubt you have a Poltical Science degree. By the way you talk I am sure that you were top of your class. I can only imagine it was very hard to get especially having conflicting views of your professors. At least you weren't another sheep regurgitating information in order to get a grade. It's people like you that "think out of the box" that really challenge their professors and the non-bias views they present. Way to have your own mind. Kuddos to you :P
@ResinatedLung Actually dude My professors are the ones who taught me my way of thinking in fact if you watched any new channel that wasn't FOX you would learn that real Americans shown in REAL polls agree with my way of thinking not Megynn Kelly and Bill O'reilly's randomly plucked numbers. I thank you good bye
@MATTNOUTCHCOS Hmmm. Not that I agree or disagree with you and your arguments. But I have to say it is quite funny that you felt a need to tell posters on youtube your academic credentials. As far as I can tell, no one was questioning your ethos, only your views.
And by the way, going to a great university is good, but it is not an ends into itself. G. W. Bush went to a great university, but what does that really say about him? Real arguments stand on their own, supported by a mountain of facts
@daobagua Fair point, I just get angry when Conservatives label anyone who doesn't think like they do Socialist as if it is wrong to think like that. Also recent events show us how much Murdoch's FOX News is a sham never covering the Phone hacking just shows they're biased fearmongerers
@Frankcastle522 Also a fair point but you have to acknowledge a lot of Conservatives are, many many more racists than there are in the Democratic party and for me the Tea Party is too closely linked with the Republicans, I cannot even respect the Republicans as long as they share similar beliefs
@MATTNOUTCHCOS In my own limited experience I would say their is a bit of tension between racially different people particularly when folks are more conservative, I can also say more socialist leaning folks are liberals. People paint each other in negative lights, but it usually has some limited truth. But do I think you are a man trying to steal my wealth, no, I don't know you, you could be a liberal for the social issues, I am not a racist so I think we can agree its not us but the media...
continued, that it's the media that paints each side in a negative light. As for the tea party, I don't care for them, I also dislike the OWS group but as much as I have only found liberals at those event I don't affiliate the Democratic party with Occupy movements.
@NavySARsailor it is the other way around fox news is worst excuse for news that i have ever seen. they make up things as they go. no facts whatsoever in fox news.
@NavySARsailor Root. Rooting for Fox News is like rooting for Josef Goebbels. Distortions, half truths and outright lies should never be defended. Network News may "lean left" (but were they silent for the Monica Lewinski affair?), but Fox is unabashedly a "slam the Democrats/liberals" network at every turn. Watch Fox & Friends and compare it with any network news morning show and tell me there is no difference in approach. It is not right leaning journalism, it is yellow journalism.
@timpipe continued...part of the country to do what they feel to be the best model for American government. CNN/MSNBC/HN all of them have pundits not analysis. Media lacks any and all real strength putting your lot on to one media over the other is just foolish. Fox is evil the rest are just ineffective.
Jon Stewart as an acknowledged liberal, but most of his interviews that get extended cuts on his website are with conservatives. And the only conservative I've seen accusing him of being unfair was Marc Theissen, who whined about constantly being interrupted the whole way through. And Bill Kristol has told other conservatives that Stewart will give them the best interview. Stewart is neither a pundit, attack dog, nor sycophant. Tragically, he's the best political interviewer on TV.
@Gunman610 It actually is not so strange that a comedian is the best interviewer. One has to be smart to be a good comedian (which is maybe why I always found Dennis Miller to be hopelessly unfunny and mostly just smarmy). If it is funny, Jon Stewart will do for it (hypocrisy has no hiding place, whether liberal or conservative).
@Gunman610 Sadly, often he takes cheap shots and speaks sound bites to pander to his gullible audience who will applaud anything vaguely anti fox or anti right wing. Sadly, most of the Colbert/ Stewart audience isn't nearly as intelligent and open minded as the hosts are.
@NavySARsailor As true as it is that they are the only conservative media outlet these days, they represent in a terribly negative, and ofter disengenious way. Instead of supporting them, you should be holding them to the wall to be truthful. The truth is, there is nothing conservative about outright pandering and twisting facts to feed the minds of a groups most ignorant of followers. I'm not defending liberal media, it's just Fox has crossed the line where we can see it is not in error.
You're surprised he's making fun of democrats just because he's liberal? really? just because you like someone or some side in politics doesn't mean you're not angry when they screw up. Not everything is about sides.
and why is this an insault to democrats? there are no facts... OH NO WE GLUED OUR BALLS, better vote for republicans who start wars illegally and steal money from the poor... hey jon, try making a real argument next time, and your rateings wont drop
@SickBritKid im pretty sure like 3 days ago obama worked with republicans to swat down a democratic bill to reduce taxes on people makin less than 250,000 a year... the corporations have finnally turned obama into bush, the democratic senators are gonna fight him tooth and nail, pelosi has said she wont let her work go undone... the republicans actually support taxes on the poor and middle class LOL, when income tax is lowered the poor pay more sale tax
Well, you'd be dead fucking wrong. Learn, my friend. It goes a long way.
What Obama's doing is trying to extend the Bush tax cuts so that NONE of the taxes are raised when they expire on the 1st. Otherwise, we'd get huge hikes ALL ACROSS THE BOARD, for poor, middle and upper class alike.
In exchange, the Dems get their extension of Unemployment benefits.
@SickBritKid we need the unemployment benifits but the tax cuts for the rich just make me sick... and im pretty sure the rich got their tax cut already, and this bill was for middle & lower class, but i could be wrong
@SickBritKid lol buisness owners fire employees to make profits for themselfs... only democrats take tax dollars and build streets to pay the workers for doing work, only democrats... also most intelligent buisness owners realize a democratic society is better than a society run by the billionairs, im a millionair and i understand this
No, what you're "understanding" is this spoon-fed image of business owners with millions of dollars given to you courtesy of the Obama White House-dicksuckers at MSNBC and CNN.
Democrats' public works projects have failed multiple times over. Don't believe me? LOOK AT FREAKING DETROIT, MICHIGAN!
@SickBritKid using tax dollars from rich people to build public roads, schools and fire departments for every citizen to use WILL create jobs and economic growth... so public works projects do work (if democrats do anything short of my definition then it isnt a publics work project).. alot of left wingers argue that democrats are too capitalist, so dont expect democrats to do anything really pro-worker, and i wont expect phony republicans of really being small government... now we can fix things
Public works projects work? Which is why the majority of suburbs surrounding Detroit, which were constructed by Public Works projects, are now destitute and dilapidated ruins that are home to druggy squatters?
@SickBritKid you dont seem to understand the difference between public works projects, and project housing... a house is not public, a road or school or post office is public... instead of public housing, lets just give those poor people a few thousand dollars to rent their own private house?... afterall its not like they havent worked all their lives and gotten skrewed out of everything by greedy rich dipshits who dont deserve their money
I dunno about you, but I'd rather work and CONTRIBUTE TO SOCIETY than sit around and "think", and by think I mean "take everything the Lefty media throws at me as gospel", all day without getting up off my ass.
@SickBritKid whats the point of you swinging a hammer if no one ever sits on their ass and draws up some design?... im a engineer dipshit, i design stuff in 3d modeling software then pass it on to laboring republican knuckle dragging fools apperently just like you lol... your not a thinker hahahaha
The America must appreciate the reality that Muslims are represented by many diverse groups with values that differ from those of the Wahhabis. Lumping them all together will cause only more trouble, and will (and has) alienate those Muslims who are opposed to terrorism.i believe someday islam will rule America!~those who oppose the idea of Ground Zero mosque is a sinners!allah akhbar
America must appreciate? The religion of Islam is the least tolerant of all major religions. Muslims in America may be more enlightened, but as a whole, you've got a lot of catching up to do. For Europeans and westerners the age of enlightenment started about 300 years ago. A movement for human rights and a freedom to believe what you want and to live with dignity. It has by no means been perfected, but overall a good systen has been developed. Your religion is still......
Moses preached to honor God and love thy neighbor. Jesus followed that up with the gospel of forgiveness, love, and relationship with God -that judgment is for God and God alone. What did Mohammed bring to the table 600 years later? Kill the non-believers!! Can you see how that doesn't fit? Islam is a messed up belief, only followed by those who grew up with it and never given the chance to look for real spirituality.
Don't tell me I'm wrong - I live in a Muslim country.
Of course he does this? What do you expect? The thing about Steve Colbert and Jon Stewart are to make fun of whats on the air. Not to debate on politics using humor.
being a liberal does not entitle a person to be a democract. liberals are more inclined to the democratic party but not all liberals are democratic. i know several conseratives who are registered democrats as well as several liberals who are republican. but no one is purely one part or the other everyone has different views
@kumar01234 - Good point. I'm a middle of the road with conservative political views but I'm not a Republican. Nor am I a red neck racists as I've been called about a thousand times on YT.
ya pretty much this is how people view things. over the years i see this assoication constantly why people associate this thing with a certain view i dont know but people always view republicans as racist rednecks and view liberals as emo vegan rebellious protesters . dunno why people do that but they do.
im a moderate like i took so many different tests and i keep coming in the middle each time well once or twice i got liberal and once or twice i got conservative but mostly moder
Barak Obama's Health Care Bill.... Will you back this administrations bill?? Goto my channel page to Find out just why Americans thoughts are needed !
@JoshPowersProduction Exactly, I agree. And they do hit everyone. They just go with the flow when showing their satire. If the Democrats mess up more then they will be the target, and the same for the Republicans. But yeah, Stewart and Colbert know how to crack a joke.
It's interesting to see how Jon's leftist audience s easily laughs at their own party, but he could call them all assholes to their face and they'd probably laugh at that also.
@MrFreeLibertarian Yeah, they found it funny. He wasn't trying to be offensive, just funny. Keith on MSNBC and the people on Fox News try to be offensive.
@MrFreeLibertarian Not all leftists are Democrat supporters, just as not all righties are Republican supporters. If you are a Republican supporter, chances are you are a Johnny-come-lately Libertarian.
I don't understand why all of a sudden so many Libertarians have blindly allied themselves with the Republicans. True Libertarians lean more left than the Dems do when it comes to issues such as drugs, marriage, and foreign-policy.
@MrFreeLibertarian Everyone who watches the daily show isn't a leftist. I have conservative friends who like to watch the daily show. He regularly rips on both parties, but it's true he picks on republicans a bit more. Sorry if you don't know how to appreciate political satire. I think anyone who aligns all of their beliefs with one party is a moron.
@moreoreos123 I appreciate political satire. What I don't appreciate is leftist propaganda and I'm sorry if you can't tell the difference. Saying that he rips on republicans "a bit more" is laughable. Do you really define ripping republicans 80% of the time as "a bit more"? I've watched Liebowitz's show enough to know that he's not honest. He depends on his viewers' ignorance. I know a few regular watchers and they pride themselves on not following politics closely--code for clueless.
@MrFreeLibertarian Its a comedy show you dumbass. I'd hardly call it propaganda. You obviously haven't watched the show very much if you think 80% of the time he's ripping on republicans. He bashed democrats nearly as often. I watch the show, and i don't pride myself on not following politics. You are just stereotyping all of his viewers. Polls have shown people who watch his show know more about politics than people watching Fox and other news networks. So much for your ignorance theory.
@MrFreeLibertarian and we held on to the senate, you shouldent be happy, you were supposed to sweep us... now next election we start with the senate, and if republicans win the presidency, then we will pull even more seats... your loseing ground, and you have spent all your political energy on this race, corporations LOSE
A minor grammar error makes me the idiot? Jesus christ what are you a moron? You probably assume everyone who posts on youtube is from America. Try learning more than one language then we will talk.
Lol...well, I'm not American either and English isn't my first language. So I guess we can talk now? You are fast to call other people idiots when you yourself make silly mistakes in your post. Pretty ironic I'd say
@firmitas68 Yeah, you kinda caused that shit. Nice banking you guys have over there. Also, I'm not Greek. I'm Belgian. The West-European gouvernments are doing everything they can to solve that mess. Maybe try regulating some of your economy, so the rest of us don't have to suffer your stupidity.
Thats not my point. Claiming a comedian for being the smartest person in america is stupid just because he has some witty banter to say about politics.
@snoobeagle ,,, disillusioned moonbat liberals,,,R U saying that libs r too looney to run anything? they run california,,oh yea Cali. is broke and 6 billion in the hole ,,hahaha
Don't get Jon Stewart wrong, he is a liberal and enthusiastically supports the democratic party. It's just that to protect the party, he has to occasionally chastise some of the less intelligent people in the party, like Olbermann, to tell them to dial back on some of their more obvious lies, which are so especially obvious that they are actively hurting the cause of Liberalism. I say, keep that crazy train rollin' over at MSNBC!
I hope the Republicans do not nominate Palin. That would be just as stupid as the Democrats putting a rookie like Obama in there instead of Hillary Clinton.
Stewart can't allow the democrats to let Obama down without throwing his stupid shit all over them. Obama worship comes first and everyone else goes under the bus.
the way less biased!? Not that NBC is not a liberal biased news organisation, but the corporate symbol of the fox news channel might as well be an elephant. I hate both networks all the same as they both are on air merely to serve their own end. Fox, NBC, CBS, CNN... all the same, just different sides of the coin.
I listen to NPR, PBS, and the BBC. Are they a little biased? Yes, but not nearly as bad as the other networks. At least they do a much better job on reporting both sides of a story.
Sorry, but to the folks calling Olbermann some sort of Constitutionalist sorry, he has no love for the Tea Party Movement or Libertarians at all, he is firmly in the Statist camp. He uses most of his airtime name calling and demagoging the issues. His "Worst Person in the World" schtick, is predictably, 3 of 6 names, Limbagh, Hannity, O'Reilly, Beck, Coulter, or Roberston, with a sprinkling of whoever he hates on any given day. His show is a soapbox to verbally abuse whoever he dissagrees with.
Even John Stewart, shortly after this, pointed out to him. Basically he has de-evolved into, is name calling whoever he disagrees with. And that most of his accusations are completely false, based on at most extreme stretches of reality and are shallow. Most people respect an argument that at least is centered around some sort of reasonable debate, but Olbermann has fallen to the lowest level of debate, just desperate pleas for attention, his credibility is gone and his shows ratings prove it.
People are sick of his presentation, but i don't see how that invalidates the facts he brings up on occasion with regards to people like, hannity, limbaugh, etc. But anyway, here is the main difference between msnbc and fox news: fox news claims to be a true news organization. msnbs acknowledges they have a biased agenda, and never presents anything as real news.
@FaceGenital i watch his "worst person in the world" segment every day. he does all the legwork of finding ppl i agree with so i can buy their books and read their blogs.
@NerdboiisAfroMan A political commentary hour that Olberman repeatedly used to try to boost his popularity. Olbermann's ratings and opinions were such a drag on MSNBC, his only course action was using his competition to help his ratings.
The Daily Show is hilarious, that's why it's popular, but it's a show about John Stewart's Opinion, the same as O'Reilly, Beck, Olbermann, Maddow and that new socialist shit stain...Lawrence O'Donnell. None of those shows are news, they are opinions.
So true.

Still If you believe that the misogynist, Islam hating, Capitol punishment liking, gay bashers of the south aren't also racist and ignorant to anyone who doesn't fit into the WASP category then sir you are lost. If every Republican had the same beliefs as Ron Paul then I would totally agree with you but the conservative half of the political spectrum is much more variable and dangerous than the liberal half. Liberalism is the future.

You target business with excessive regulation and taxation and they flee. You overburdon citizens with property taxes and they do the same. Liberalism is a cancer.

@tomthefunky Actually fool, the reason Detroit has become poverty stricken, is the boom and bust capitalist Economy. Don't jump on that and say i'm a communist, because I'm not, just someone who acknowledges capitalism has faults. the Occupy wall street protesters aren't there for no reason. Inner cities are failing because America has equality and fair pay, we cannot keep up with the effective slave labor in Asia, and if Detroit's Car building industry costs us fair pay then I don't want it.

@DrCruel Every person is informed by a "world view". Any entity that attempts to say otherwise should be avoided. Stewart has never said he was and unbiased observer. Fox news"fair and balanced" and"we report you decide" are much more misleading. Your assessment is oversimplified to the extreme and therefore of no use. If you disagree with Stewart's opinion, tell us why he is wrong.

@finerbiner I didn't claim he was a biased pundit that nevertheless tries to remain objective and rational. I said he's a Leftist hack that promotes his ideology whenever he gets the chance. I also claimed his motivation is in catering to his moonbat sophomore socialist fans.
He doesn't voice an opinion. He promotes an ideology, frequently with misleading spots on his show, and occasionally with outright lies. He's guilty of exactly what he claims FOX News is doing, and it's deliberate.

@DrCruel I have seen Stewart on Fox. He never has claimed to be "fair and balanced" or to be a member of the news media. He is a satirist. The finest of this generation. he pokes fun while making a point.

@finerbiner What is it about FOX News that makes them a lightning rod for such controversy - and not, say, MSNBC or CBS News? And what has any of this to do with Jon Stewart being a Leftist hack? If his claim is that partisan politics in the media is "hurting America", why then is he practicing exactly that?
He's as much of a "satirist" as Rush Limbaugh. Given the venom I've heard directed at Limbaugh for decades, why is it that Stewart is being applauded for the same "satirical" behavior?

Jon Stewart as an acknowledged liberal, but most of his interviews that get extended cuts on his website are with conservatives. And the only conservative I've seen accusing him of being unfair was Marc Theissen, who whined about constantly being interrupted the whole way through. And Bill Kristol has told other conservatives that Stewart will give them the best interview. Stewart is neither a pundit, attack dog, nor sycophant. Tragically, he's the best political interviewer on TV.

A minor grammar error makes me the idiot? Jesus christ what are you a moron? You probably assume everyone who posts on youtube is from America. Try learning more than one language then we will talk.

Lol...well, I'm not American either and English isn't my first language. So I guess we can talk now? You are fast to call other people idiots when you yourself make silly mistakes in your post. Pretty ironic I'd say

@matenizer And I am an American so I guess my opinion doesn't matter either, but the Greek debt crisis tells me there a lot of morons out there.

@firmitas68 Yeah, you kinda caused that shit. Nice banking you guys have over there. Also, I'm not Greek. I'm Belgian. The West-European gouvernments are doing everything they can to solve that mess. Maybe try regulating some of your economy, so the rest of us don't have to suffer your stupidity.

@firmitas68 the greek debt crisis was a indirect response to the american economic depression, but i agree on one point alot of morons out there

In the end they will be exposed for the Destroyers Of Worlds they are. The phony free market fascists.

Don't get Jon Stewart wrong, he is a liberal and enthusiastically supports the democratic party. It's just that to protect the party, he has to occasionally chastise some of the less intelligent people in the party, like Olbermann, to tell them to dial back on some of their more obvious lies, which are so especially obvious that they are actively hurting the cause of Liberalism. I say, keep that crazy train rollin' over at MSNBC!

I hope the Republicans do not nominate Palin. That would be just as stupid as the Democrats putting a rookie like Obama in there instead of Hillary Clinton.

NBC's recipe for their own FAUX-News style analyst, Keith Olbermann
INGREDIENTS
1) a large build with clean-cut, anglo-saxon looks like Hannity
2) a bullish name-calling demeanor like O'Reilly
3) a lot of extreme short sided paranoid viewpoints like Beck
4) a 'stubborn as a mule' i'm-right-and-you're-wrong personality like Limbaugh
5) the overall uptight 'i'm smarter then you' bitchiness of Coulter
DIRECTIONS
Prep with make-up, and place in front of camera w/ lighting until ego is satisfied

@mitchkramah
That's IRONY for ya, Olbermann's show is now called 'Faux News' which a term he made up for (the way less biased) Fox News...
STPdemon 2 years ago 2
the way less biased!? Not that NBC is not a liberal biased news organisation, but the corporate symbol of the fox news channel might as well be an elephant. I hate both networks all the same as they both are on air merely to serve their own end. Fox, NBC, CBS, CNN... all the same, just different sides of the coin.
I listen to NPR, PBS, and the BBC. Are they a little biased? Yes, but not nearly as bad as the other networks. At least they do a much better job on reporting both sides of a story.

Sorry, but to the folks calling Olbermann some sort of Constitutionalist sorry, he has no love for the Tea Party Movement or Libertarians at all, he is firmly in the Statist camp. He uses most of his airtime name calling and demagoging the issues. His "Worst Person in the World" schtick, is predictably, 3 of 6 names, Limbagh, Hannity, O'Reilly, Beck, Coulter, or Roberston, with a sprinkling of whoever he hates on any given day. His show is a soapbox to verbally abuse whoever he dissagrees with.

Even John Stewart, shortly after this, pointed out to him. Basically he has de-evolved into, is name calling whoever he disagrees with. And that most of his accusations are completely false, based on at most extreme stretches of reality and are shallow. Most people respect an argument that at least is centered around some sort of reasonable debate, but Olbermann has fallen to the lowest level of debate, just desperate pleas for attention, his credibility is gone and his shows ratings prove it.
FaceGenital 2 years ago
People are sick of his presentation, but i don't see how that invalidates the facts he brings up on occasion with regards to people like, hannity, limbaugh, etc. But anyway, here is the main difference between msnbc and fox news: fox news claims to be a true news organization. msnbs acknowledges they have a biased agenda, and never presents anything as real news.

@NerdboiisAfroMan A political commentary hour that Olberman repeatedly used to try to boost his popularity. Olbermann's ratings and opinions were such a drag on MSNBC, his only course action was using his competition to help his ratings.
The Daily Show is hilarious, that's why it's popular, but it's a show about John Stewart's Opinion, the same as O'Reilly, Beck, Olbermann, Maddow and that new socialist shit stain...Lawrence O'Donnell. None of those shows are news, they are opinions.
