  • No fuckin Way!

  • And you're a douche no matter the year.

  • is dick armey's wife name vagina coastguard?

  • @Elfonz0 ok Peter Griffin haha

  • Cenk is a fratboy from the 90s

  • He said nothing of the sort. I don't even know who the guy is, but he certainly didn't dismiss her because she was a woman, he dismissed her because she is a political hack.

  • I got a problem with Dick on his immigration stance but I have to say he was dead right here. But as usual Yt makes a fool of himself.

  • and the young turks are liberals from the 2000's

  • Dick Armey is funny.

  • I can't get over that horrible name.

    But it's better to have one Slick willie than the entire Dick Armey.

  • I still like Family Guy's comment best:

    "Dick Armey? What's your wife's name, Vagina Coastguard?"

  • The only solace I get from this is that people like Dick Armey will die off very soon.

  • 1995: Armey claims that he accidently called Barney Frank "Barney Fag".

    2000: "Yes my name is Dick Armey, and if there were a dick army, Barney Frank would be the first to sign up."

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

  • Hey, Dick, screw you. You can go back to your retirement home and let people who aren't determined to bring back the era of the 1950's sexism back. Just for that comment, I'll make sure to talk about what I think even more, just so I can irritate people like you. Hope you can handle seeing strong women in charge because that is the future.

  • Comment removed

  • Dick Armey: PWNED!

  • Joan Walsh owned this pompous old fool. Dick Armey has long since passed his "sell-by-date" Republicans still think they can enable all wealth to roll up hill and the rest of the country will sit on their hands and allow it. Free marketism, unhinedered by regulation or common sense caused this depression. Most of the blame lies with Republican and Liberterian policies.

  • the republicans dont want to solve the problem they want it to get worse.They want a depression.

  • You're half right. "Tax cuts didn't cause the recession", but excessive spending by the Bush Admministration did!

    Tax cuts are helpful ONLY if spending is reduced!!

  • Rep. Army is indeed a paleo-conservative as opposed to the neo-cons represented by Bush. The I'm glad I'm not married to you slight seemed awfully inoffessive given some of the mudslinging that goes on, and as much as one might disagree with the paleocons, the Pournelles and the like are always worth listening to.

  • Hey Dick Armey! Whats your wife's name? "Vagina Coastguard"?

  • nothing like republicans falling behind the drug addict rush lol who cares what he says? omfg senators get your shizzola together!

  • She should have replied

    " You should also be glad that I am not your MOTHER. Coz I would have sent you to timeout for that sexist/ignorant/backward comment, or just simply slapped the shit out of your"

    LOL

  • This is why Republicans have become irrelevant. They've become a party of just this; old white guys who are angry at women and angry at minorities. Adapt or die, son. And there's enough smart Republicans out there to recognize that they have to adapt or die, so they adapt by picking Michael Steele as RNC head. Armey should recognize even his own party won't have a place for his snarky old ass soon.

  • Dick Armey is a fucking cunt.

  • . . . an entire army of dicks. . .

  • Dick is more then a dick, he is also a pig.

  • 11 out of 255 Dems is not ALOT of Dems!

  • Dude the economic stulus package is a freaggin joke!

  • Bush ran up massive debt by giving huge tax cuts to the top 5% (in fact top 1% got a little over 50%) & that was a TRILLION DOLLAR loss (no trickle down, folks - money stashed in off-shore banks).

    Then as he left Bush got another TRILLION to the wall street bankers (they won't even tell us where it's being spent).

    Now after Bush has run up the deficit by TRILLIONS on his war, tax cuts for top 1%, & wall street -- GOP IS UPSET BARACK WANTS TO HELP OUT THE MIDDLE CLASS!

  • Funny how everyone blames Obama for the bailouts when Bush begged congress to pass them.

  • @DillonX give for more freedbees..... dumb ass.

  • As Harry Shearer said about Dick Armey,..."Is there any other kind?"

  • what a sexist jerk.

  • The republicans are clearly being impulsive and reactionary now. It's time to crush the little buggers. Hope the democrats grow some balls now. Show some god damn gumption Dems!

  • Republicans:

    60's - They'll NEVER "get" the 60's. (lol)

    70's - Nixon (Can't go there)

    80's - Reagan (RED INK "Conservatism")

    90's - HATE Clinton for paying down their bar tab

    Hence . . .

    50's - by DEFAULT - Their "happy place"

  • Ppl in the GOP don't even take Armey seriously anymore.

    He truly is a limp Dick.

  • ESPECIALLY WITH A LAST NAME ARMEY LOL

  • Sorry, but Dick Army was on the ball. She's a talking head, whether what she happens to be saying has any validity or not. She sounded like a fucking talking point robot until Army shook it up a bit with his deliciously unfashionable chauvenism. Delightful television.

  • Cenk, you are so wrong on blaming the Republicans fully for this economic downturn. Most of these policies that lead to this were started during the Clinton years.

    The fact is, government in general is the problem, no Republican or Democratic.

    BTW, I don't like Rush and never listen to him. He is also a political hack that never says anything but Liberal this, liberal that.

  • the GOP was in control for most of the last 8yrs. BUT, they aren't all responsible. just primarily. as far as mentioning clinton goes, remember this: he left the budget balanced (with a SURPLUS), clinton created 5x more jobs than bush did & the middle class was relatively prosperous. do i need to mention bush's record?

  • Bush inherited the the bubbles from the Clinton Administration and did so many of the wrong things in trying to ease the pain. Now Obama has inherited those same problems and is doing the EXACT SAME THINGS BUSH did in the early 2000's.

    the day's of the Neo-con's are over. True conservatism will take over.

  • true conservatism never existed. what's more, bush's in-tray was nowhere near as empty as obama's. obama is actually doing the opposite of bush by attempting non-partisanship. i'd love for you to explain the "bubble" when there was actually a surplus. trickle down economics don't work. bush created less jobs, created a deficit & allowed de-regulation that permitted the exportation of labor that caused unemployment that left bills unpaid that started the mortgage crisis that fucked the economy

  • What happens is that the regulations passed and regulations ending usually only benefits a few. Usually, as in the housing bubble, the government gives some type of guarantee. If the government said it would pay off the load if the customer faulted, would you care who you gave the loan too????

    Fact is, if the laws that were on the books were actually followed, none of this would have happened. Banks would fold and banks that didn't make these loans would prosper.

  • I would like to complain about your pizza. It was cold and disgusting. You are a not a pizza god...you are a pizza peon.

  • Go Dick Army, I fully support what he just said to that political hack in the video you just showed.

    I voted for Dick back in the day and would vote for him now if he was running.

  • Dick Armey owns that bitch here, she is acting like a political hack. She's apart of the liberal main stream media that is "forced" to play her part in the footprints of Chris Matthews. He may be living in 1955, but this bitch isn't living in reality. Obama has been the ONLY president to go after a media figure in office. He is going after Rush. Bush was slammed by the media for 8 years and did you ever hear him crying like a pussy and trying to silence the media?

  • I feel sorry for you.

  • For what, telling it how it is? Being trutful with people and not sugar-coating the garbage media that dissolves American minds day by day? If so.....I'm guilty as charged, I'm not a media watching Zombie......And you ask why the government is spending 150 million to make sure people can watch TV when they switch from analog to digital. LMFAO. What a joke....GET REAL!

  • I don't even have a television so I don't what you're going on about. I think it's best not to pay attention to the media on any side of the aisle, it has become corrupt. But you can't for a second act like Rush isn't incredibly guilty of it. Listening to that kind of crap is worse than anything. I get my information from the SOURCE.

  • Yes, the press were not nice to Bush but when did you ever hear anyone in the press say that they wished that Bush failed like Rush said about Pres. Obama. They talked all along about how people who disagreed with Bush were being disloyal to the country. This statement by Rush could almost also be considered treasonous or even seditious.

  • It was taken out of context, he said he "hopes liberalism fails", and if back is for liberalism and socialism then yes he wants him to fail because that is not his idealogy. The media does a bang up job cutting and pasting news.

  • Rush said this when Obama was barely in office.

    Anyone who did not think it a good idea to invade countries and bomb people was deemed "in league with Al-Qaeda".

    The cry baby "conservatives" who are anything but conservative are a cancer in the US. They hate science (abstinence only education, ban on stem cell research). They hate minorities, especially Muslims and Mexicans.

    Frankly the country needs to expose and shame the Neanderthals who impede human progress.

  • and the irony is that Wiener Air Force here claims that "politics is silly" and criticizes Ms. Walsh here for being "a partisan hack"

    despite what Cenk is saying, Dick Armey defines what it means to be a political, partisan HACK. Him and his little crony Tom DeLay were the two biggest blowhards i've ever seen in my life.

    honestly if the democrats made a bill in Congress saying that the sky was blue, Armey would immediately order a 24 hour filibuster on it. what a sleaze.

  • She's a hard hitting liberal commentator

    He's a former republican leader

    They could not be more unalike

    But they are about to find out

    That love, is a funny thing

  • i think dick armey just made a slight faux pas. i've seen comments that were WAY more sexist and disgusting, which is saying a lot b/c Armey is no saint for women.

    that being said, he is still an asshole and I would not mind seeing that bastard under the bus. Seriously, what a fucking douchebag

  • That "married" comment was so totally out of line. If I'd been her, I would have totally railed on that asshole, I'm impressed with the way she managed to restrain herself.

  • totally unnecessary

    not good to generalize, but man republicans these days are out of control and most should stay away from politics for a good, long time

    and i mean long, long, long, long, long time

  • I see what he means, I'd be pissed if my wife was as ugly as that at 25 :P

  • .... She's 51.

  • lawl i was jking

  • hey... the Broad that was prattling on said THE DEMOCRATS CAUSED THE PROBLEM ALSO.

    Jeesh give it a rest.

  • Didn't the Republican controlled Congress raise the debt ceiling several times during the Bush years? A little history Dick Armey would feign ignorance over.

  • What else is new? Republicans are Christian Fascists. Fascists are sexist. That's why Dick Armey talked sexist. Nothing new.

  • To understand what caused this problem is not simply laying it on The Bush Administration tax cuts. This problem started back in the 70's with the sudden massive expansion of the fiat currency from The Federal Reserve. It's government deficit spending that is feeding this problem. And it doesn't matter if the spending is occuring through Republicans pushing for larger military and policing the world policies or Democratic social programs. Tax cut make the problem worse if you don't cut spending.

  • COME ON NOW. BUSH SPENT US INTO THE POOR HOUSE! How much more do you want? For him to destory it?

  • Yes Bush did spend more money in the last 8 years than at any other 8 years periods in American history. I'm not defending that. The comment was to rebut that Bush caused the problem. Bush simply is continuing the problem, just as the previuos 20 Administrations before him, of government deficit spending. To allow that, no matter who is in office, is the TRUE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM.

  • @mickey

    Stop spreading your bullshit. In 1945 following the world war US debt was 120% of GDP in 1980 following Carter it was at a 35-40% lowmark. Then Reagan came in and shot it up to 60% Bush continued that, Clinton reversed it and Bush jr went batshit crazy. The deficit spending from 1945-1980 was more than mitigated by GDP growth and has nothing to do with the kinds of deficit spending we've seen from republicans since.

  • Your reading the Democratic version of history. I'm reading histroy. Or maybe it's just your reading comprehension. I'll try and sum it up for you. The problem is The Feds ability to print money on a whim and getting both Democrats and Republican to figure out how they want to spend us into a hole. Get rid of The Fed and make congress take back the constitutional responsibility of guarding the value of our money and keeping balanced budgets.

  • The simple fact is that the current debt is not structural, it's the result of decades of republican mismanagement. And cheap, irresponsible tax cut politics. Look at the statistics you cannot deny the facts. You are looking at this trough a political specter not me. You see this as an opportunity to decrease the size of government, that's what you're concerned with not the deficit itself.

  • The current debt is the result of decades of Republican and Democrat mismanagement. Both prities are tpo blame for this current mess. Federal government is too big and must be reduced. The only way to pay down debt is to first have a syurplus and then actually use the surplus to pay off debt, not to instill new programs because you have the illusion of money.

  • Yeah it's simply not true and you know it. You want to reduce the size of government because that fits your ideology. Fine nothing wrong with that belief I guess. But don't pretend your concern is the deficit.

  • Deficit spending makes The Fed to print more money and causes the inflation that raises prices and reduces the value of the dollar against other world currencies. The national debt is now over $11 Trillion. The interest we pay on that money is now the biggest item in the budget to the tune of $400 billion per year. And the only reason it's that low is because The Fed pushed rates down which cause the bubble and meltdown we're in now. When rates rise taxes will be 50% of what you make. Enjoy that

  • ? There's nothing you said I disagreed with (though defense spending for example is far more than 400 billion). Though the bubble was caused by more factors than just the low fed rate.

    But nothing you said goes against my argument that the current national debt is not structural. Clinton already proved that.

    Also most likely I don't think inflation is as big of a deal as it is in your opinion.

  • Inflation is a problem. You think your wages are keeping up with inflation? Inflation is an invisible tax on 200 million Americans without assets. If you don't have a house or stocks, your losing in the inflation game. Also as your income rises you get thrown into a higher tax bracket and possibly The AMT. Inflating the currency by simply printing money is one reason why the gap between rich and poor keeps widening. Glad you don't think it's such a big deal.

  • I see a Ron Paul supporter. :)

  • I'll admit, I'm a big Ron Paul Supporeter.

  • You mean Ron W. Bush?

  • You're obviously an idiot. To compare Ron Paul to Bush is comparing good & evil. Paul voted against the war, against the bailouts(socialisms), against increased spending which have caused our deficit to ballon to $10 trillion; against the patriot act which violates your rights; and believes in free market economics. Bush on the other hand is a modern day Hitler. America voted him in because most are uneducated. If you want a real President look no further than Ron Paul.

  • They're both Republicans...enough said.

  • Ron Paul= Libertarian

    George W. Bush= Idiot

  • It also helps when you steal elections a la 2000.

    Foxnews called it for Bush and fake "protesters" ended the recount which would have given Gore the win.

    Bush STOLE a US election, WHY does the media never talk about it?! I just cannot understand why no one cares that an election was literally stolen. What a Democracy...

    Bush = murderous, bible-thumping scumbag.

    Paul = true conservative who believes in the constitution.

    Bush trashed the constitution while Paul seeks to restore it.

  • Dick is living up to his name.

  • Cock Navy!!

  • I'm just waiting for some of the OLD political hacks to die off...

  • The morbidly obese Arab is some hypocrite, isn't he? Just look at the sexist photos he uses to promote his inane videos. I guess "new skool" is plastering tits and ass all over YouTube, eh fatty?

  • lol

    It's so rich to have a republican be the champions of policy over politics since 90% of their practices at least in the last decade have been political while policy has been left by the wayside. How else can you explain their loudly trumpeting the same failed policies without a fresh idea among them.

    That's why this election was about generational change. I just hope it's not too late for our country, or our planet.

  • Politicians claiming not to be political, they are the dangerous ones.

  • And if you ask her, she said "HELL NO, YOU F-ING IDIOT!"

  • He just hates a woman with an opinion who doesn't back down in his formidable (in his mind at least) - presence. What a joke. I bet he is a real verbally vicious ass with his wife- & degrades the heck outa her. Can't stand guys like him.

  • Jesus loves you

  • I think you got it a bit wrong ther. Nobody should be disrespectful, neither men nor women. It shouldn´t work both ways, it should work no way. And I don´t think it would be "praised" if a female would state in an political/economic discussion, that she´s glad the opponent in the discoussion is not her husband, because it has no point there.

  • Every republican is from 1955.

  • this was great armey is great. you young turk are a symptom of the pussyfication of america

  • Right? Well guess what fucktard this old asshole is going to die soon, and so will his idiotic ideals. Fuck you.

  • wow you're so tough and cool

  • Lol.. his name is Dick Armey. I bet they make fun of him behind his back on capitol hill.

  • Armey is a fucking douchebag, just another fucking republican worried about losing his job, keep acting the fool, you'll get voted out eventually

  • The economy has been wrecked by deficit spending, and the bailout is simply more of the same!

  • dick armey is a fraud. he was 1 of the biggest parochial porkbarreller of the 1980's with the massive funding he supported of a super conducting super-collider for texas a&m in 1984

  • DICK army on HARD BALL? LMAOOOOOOOOO

  • Old dumbasses won't run the country much longer.

  • Dick is such a DICK. I'm glad republicans keep acting like this. They will never be in power again.

  • Convince everyone you know to NOT vote for a damn Republican. I'm so tired of these clowns. They make me sick to my stomach.

  • lol, I watch Matthews, Olbermann and Maddow as I watch TYT podcast on the website and I saw this as it happened. I couldn't wait till TYT covered it because I thought the same thing Cenk, everything she was saying was legit and then that weird comment came out and kind of makes one uncomfortable. NICE JOB TYT... REPORT! use Fox News slogan, WE REPORT YOU DECIDE... FAIR AND BALANCED.

  • Dick Armey is a piece of shit, and if he was hear, I'd tell that straight to his right-winged face. Punk ass bitch!

  • Dick Army has a long record of sexism and various bigotry...his 1st wife left him for abuses....he called Burney Frank....Burney Fag.....nothing new here.

  • It's Barney. And Anne Coulter said it., not Armey.

  • naah, Coulter said that about Senator Edward...not Barney....he wasn't significant enuf for her media wise back then.

  • What is it with the Republicans that they need to have this sub-culture of just behaving like total ass-wipes? This guy is a total jackass and can't even pretend for a few minutes that he has some understanding of what decent manners are, by showing a lady some respect. And this is the party that sees fit to lecture everyone else on morals? You can keep them.

  • He was upset because someone had the balls to actually say something to him, as if he has the answers to any questions.

  • Dick Armey.........hmm sounds like a microcausm of the neo-conservatives in congress.

  • Best to have a new generation of Republican's in the house.

    Com on ~!

  • Thank God these Dick Republicans are no longer running things.

  • u mean " these republicans dick"

  • Quiet woman.

    *joking*

  • lol make me sir

    lol

  • dick is tight as an owl. "armey's axiom,,,?" que?

  • This goes out to the few intelligent republicans left.

    Get the fuck out of the Republican party (I mean that in the nicest way possible)

    The GOP is a sinking ship. Make a new party. Let's get a multiple party system with more than just democrats and republicans. Just like our FOUNDING FATHERS wanted us to be. I don't get if it's the Whigs, the Green Party, (not Nazi please) but just enhance a political party and lets let the incest and retarded keep their GOP go down the shitter.

  • Dick Army??? hahahahahahahha

  • Armey's Axiom? Who the fuck does this douchebag think he is- Plato?

  • That guy needs to go back in time with all his republican buddies back to 1949.

  • dude i've read many of your similiar comments- you must feel very passionate about this issue, i wonder though why don't you just boycott everything that is TYT if you disagree with it so much? it seems like the easier less hassel option

  • You obviously don't speak for a majority.

  • Sharkdude,

    I supposedly hate America because I am for the stimulus package? It will add 3 million jobs compared to the 1 million we lost THIS WEEK ALONE. Those stupid tax cuts didnt work. The Republicans did it TWICE.. NEVER WORKED....

  • no sorry it doesn't and will continue to post videos.

    Get over it =)

  • Reminds me of the joker segment " whos batman always with`? criminals!.

    Really, tyt are terrorist who hate america, for our freedom right?.

  • lol...stupid americans. Jews will run your country FOREVER.

  • You probably listen to Alex Jones.

  • Fuck Alex Jones. He's a fucking fraud. He waists time talking about all of this fraudulent shit like the "illuminate" and elite anglo saxons yet he NEVER mentions the true rulers of America, and the rest of the world for that matter, elite zionists! They are behind EVERY SINGLE war America has ever been in. And I do mean EVERY SINGLE WAR.

  • @UGOTDAJACK - Alex Jones has been regularly critical of Israel and Zionism, but that organization alone does not account for everyone mixed up in the power play politics of today. Not all Jews are Zionists and support Israel mass killing Palestinians either, so you might want to knock off all this "The Jews rule your country" nonsense.

  • I know EXACTLY what I'm talking about and have MORE than enough evidence to back up what I'm saying. If you like I can school you right now. Just say the word and it shall be done.

  • Feel free to PM me what you have. I am very much aware of AIPAC's stranglehold on congress and I do not approve of it at all, however, they are not the tip of the ice berg. If you look at who was responsible for bankrolling the founding of Israel, we find that very few outsider of the Israeli government know what is going on, much as is the case here in America with our own government. Do not hate the Jews, hate the Zionist leadership and their banking benefactors.

  • Sorry for my earlier comment I did not realize you were mentally challenged. This is so awkward, I'm deeply sorry.

  • Actually Alex Jones regularly admonishes people for targeting the Jews as responsible for screwing up America, and in that respect I basically agree with him, most of the elite corporate types messing with America are not Jewish, but offshoots of Liberal Christian theology, pragmatic philosophy/ethics and Keynesian/Fabian economics.

  • They may have MAJOR influence over Canada and the all of Europe but NOTHING like how they dominate America. They have not managed to completely bankrupt my government nor are we dumb enough to give them 10 million dollars a day. By the way, we'll see how long America remains the leader of the so called free world. You export NOTHING because your dual citizen senators and congress man from Israel make sure their friends in high places make mad money shipping your jobs to countries like Mexico.

  • Comment removed

  • Unfortunetly, you are correct but nowhere in the world is the stregth of the zionist felt more than in America. The thing with these zionists is many of them are really athiests but use the word jew to conjeur up sympothy and hide behind the word anti semitism. The Ironic thing about this is these khazars are the REAL anti semites, for they are the ones who have displaced the semetic people of Palestine and driven them from their homes. People need to wake up and wake up FAST!

  • I agree with you 110%. Those Ashkenazi/Khazarian bastards aren't even real Jews to begin with. They are the most anti-semetic group of people in the world, and we need to create a movemnet to segregate them from real Jews and even from society. Fuck Zionists.

  • lol

  • hey i'll join that.

  • whos the new guy

  • What a major-dick armey !

  • OMFG he did NOT just say that.

  • I love how she says: THIS IS SRS BNS.

  • WHOA sexist.

  • Playing the gender card when you are loosing the debate.

    Kinda desperate isn't it?

  • Comment removed

  • Yeah... cuz the country is "Center-Right"...

  • oh, i'm so glad you brought this up. what an old fool.

  • dick is a cocksucker

  • Armey had a point though. Blaming Republicans and Bush for all the economic woes is ridiculous. In a free market economy the President and his administration don't have 100% control over the economy. There are recessions and booms. Its cyclical. Its about consumer behavior and corporate behavior. This isn't a Communist bloc country with state controlled economics and food lines.

    To say that Republicans are too blame for the current recession is being a political hack.

  • They were in power of the congress, house and presidency for 6 of the last 8 years. They continued eliminating checks on the financial system, got us into unending, expensive wars, and made major tax breaks for corps and rich people bringing on the recession. You can't blame them completely but you can blame them for a lot. Thank God they weren't able to privatize Social Security.

  • Republicans are MOSTLY to blame. That's a fact not an opinion.

    Tax cuts to the wealthiest do not and have not... helped ANYONE... except... the WEALTHIEST.

    Trickle down economics is and always has been a slap in the face to ANYONE earning less than $200,000 per year.

    If you earn more than that then of course you'll defend the goddamn thing. But the chances are... you do NOT earn more than that and are voting AGAINST your best interests.

    *Using the word "you" to mean in "general".

  • The problem is the Bush administration propagated to get rid of all free market regulations because they claimed that the market always regulates itself.

    Secondly, that same administration lacked foresight, or failed to inform the American public about the risks of a huge financial problem that may lay ahead.

    A government has to accept critique for the economical situation of a country the same way they claim responsibility for it when everything works fine.

  • But thats just it. Bill Clinton taking credit for the great surplus and economy is also bullshit. He just happened to be at the right place at the right time. One man, one president doesn't have an iron clad fist over a free market economy. I'm sorry. A president has a certain leeway and influence but in the grand scheme of things, globalization, corporate behavior, consumers and market forces decide the majority of the economy.

  • The problem is that banks gave out loans to people who couldn't really afford to pay them back. Banks did so knowing full well that their loans would be made good by the government all the same in the form of a bail out. It was corporate irresponsibility *ALONG* with consumers taking credit they couldn't afford. Thats the problem. It has very little to do with Republicans and their free market mentality or politics. This disaster started more than a decade ago.
