TPMtv: Sunday Show Roundup: Georgia Veep Sweeps

[BurningLexicon]

so scary to see the talking heads recite the talking points side by side.. but wholly enlightening! more people need to realize what pundits are all about: being the mouthpiece of each party's talking points and little else.

[swingingcouple4u]

Hmmm...U.S thinks it's ok to be right the door step of Russian, but they didn't like Russia in Cuba back in the 60's. You Americans are just asking to be nuked!.lol.

[ambientdiscord]

heh, i wonder if someone at CNN did that intentionally because they were sick of listening to BS.

[l1011l]

It cuts both ways, if you disagree with the Iraq invasion, why aren't you there opposing the US occupation? Where is this Iraqi oil we allegedly stole and why I am paying so much at the pump if that was the case?

Clearly you're using old and outdated leftist talking points, get up to speed. Now you're supposed to be crying about how we lost in Iraq because they haven't signed an oil-sharing bill. I could go on, but your knowledge is at the high school or below level, so I'm wasting my time.

[NoMagoo08]

The Republican record is horrible. Many of the most important metrics by which we measure the economy are the worst they have ever been. The human, economic and military costs of keeping our overstretched military in an intractable civil war grow greater every day.

As hard-working families continue to struggle with the rising costs of living and a shrinking job market, President Bush and his Republican enablers in Congress seem satisfied with the way things are. But the numbers don't lie.

[hujegondor]

duds

you are one of the most powefull state in the world sand trups there... what ae they going to do ? launh an atomic bomb on the us ? less probable... they are crazy but not that crazy.........

MUST SEE!!

[l1011l]

You weren't joking you were being sarcastic because you're a hippie surrender-monkey retard with a big mouth and no education. Its self-evident.

Now that you realize you were wrong you're being defensive and obnoxious. So much for your silly labels-its thanks to us "neocons" the evils of nazism/fascism was stopped.

Too bad people like you can't be thrown to the wolves (our enemies) that you defend and not get to enjoy the freedoms/liberties you spit on which we fought and worked to secure.

[phrankster]

WOW Mitt Romney

is there anything he won't say??????

[ikadoriano]

Than take your citizens to Russia, and let them live there and not on the Georgian soil!

[Wahrheit78]

Please, watch videos with these names:

REUTERS really want make us a fools? georgians victims a fake.

American Citizens Caught in Georgia During the Attack Speak The Truth. Watch the Reaction of FOX

The truth about South Ossetia War, Georgia attack, and Russia's response

[rivalrox666]

To all Russia haters.

Maybe you will find informative this piece of russian "propaganda"

watch?v=8uL51Zhf7Nk

Just watch. There are only facts.

[l1011l]

you fucking idiots, they recently found an Al Qaeda operative who was going to poison our water supply with cyanide but he instead killed himself. We've had other terror plots foiled in the past few years thanks to the vigilance of our security forces.

Russia has invaded Georgia and has been threatening to nuke Poland if they set up a missile shield with the US.

I pray those of you with your heads up your asses become the victims of the same terrorist attack you balk at-it'd be poetic justice

[itfigures]

ONE guy was going to poison our water supply? Our entire water supply? I guess its all flowing through the same tubes as the internet?

[l1011l]

so I guess its not a problem to you if only a few thousand Americans die like on 9/11, you'll only be concerned when its the entire country's water supply.

Ya the water flows through the internet tubes. Dumbass

[itfigures]

Dude... you are a sinking ship of stupid.

[l1011l]

you're pretty clever for a talking turd.

[mfyyre]

There is no Illuminati you tool, get your head out of your fantasy dream world and wake up to WHAT IS REALLY FUCKING REAL - ITS THE LIES THAT ARE DIRECTLY IN YOUR FACE

[lineaus57]

Rambo to the rescue!

It worked in Iran, Viet Nam, Chile, Indonesia, Panama, Iraq, etc. didn't it?

Keep in mind, they blew up the World Trade Center because they hate freedom, not because of anything we did.

[Mychaels]

They do not hate freedom. They hate how we waste so much. We could feed all the starving people of the world with what we waste. Try to explain this to people starving to death. Do you think they care about our freedom.

[BayerLexan]

I learned a new word, "bellicose-inclined or eager to fight; aggressive".

[Outpost007]

Absolutely! The Russians were only surging and continute their surge in McCain's surgeable tradition.

[unixaaron]

mccain is totally mixed up. I'm not a georgian. I think the romney is totally mixed up. the president of georgia was totally mixed up. sorry china you don't get your pipeline. there was one issue i like of john mccain, but he reversed his position, bummer mccain. he voted 100% with bush this year. I don't like bush because he has really weaked this country and done nothing to fix it. more bridges kill people in USA than terrorists. bUmmer.

[renijohn012270]

America will vote for McSame/McBush and in 4 years, we will asks ourselves, why are we at war with Iran/Russia? Why are gas prices at $4.99/gallon? Why is social security going broke? Why is EVERY child being left behind? Why is the deficit growing to a record high? Why are there more terrorists being recruited to kill Americans? Why are the Rich receiving more tax cuts? Why is the economy in a resession? Why are illegal aliens still being employed without a SSN#?

Answer= We voted for Mcain!!

[sammieluvsdoomy]

My fellow Amercans, my apologies, but we are seriously F***ed!!!

[btigtime2]

Not sure how you stomach watching this crap.... It is scary when some of them were complaining about using war as a last resort.

[random0815]

wow its such open deliberate evil, this old "warhero" mccain cant even stick to his militaristic pseudo virtues: undercutting the state authority for political gain in this situation was about the most disloyal and strategically amateurish (or careless) thing imaginable

and unprovoked attack? we are all georgians? just absurd..

richardson would be a good vice, i think thats where people wanted him all along

[MooseOfReason]

Dude, did Richardson say: "...that's the last thing we need to nuke"?

Who else does he want to nuke?

[MooseOfReason]

How funny would it be if Kaine were McCain's vice presidential candidate?

McCain-Kaine

People would be tripping over themselves trying to pronounce it.

[minizer999]

when did all these war mongers become mainstream

[l1011l]

since our enemies went on the warpath against us and our allies.

[NsaneNtheNbrane]

I don't agree with Obama on a lot of things, but I'd much rather live with higher income taxes during peace time than live with an inflation tax during World War III. Obama '08!

[rsnic]

Man your political figures are complete jokes. Russia has more moral authority than the US does these days. These pundits are so blinded by their hatred for Russia that the can't even see the truth in the Georgian conflict. Why did the refugees go towards Russia if they were the aggressors.

[thermalfreek]

Where is the new village idot from?

[Robfenix]

Kick Russia out of G8?! ROFL pfff

[clevername333]

ahhh now that is some rank bull shit.

[revjmike]

McCain is wrong again and again. Listen to him in the Brave New World U-Tube videos. He contradicts himself again and again and doesn't even know stuff I know even though I'm not that much younger than he is.

We cannot let McCain be elected.

[revjmike]

McCain is a warmongering idiot. If he is elected we'll never be safe again and we'll become a third world country in the short run.

[chaplinfan48]

Hmmm..... Maybe Obama oughta look at Claire McCaskill for Vice Pres. maybe he already is. Kinda like Hillary, only better. Less grandstanding, No asshole ex-president husband. Wouldn't stab him in the back first chance she gets...... Or maybe Connie Sebelius.... I can't wait to find out

[GrownupPhan]

McCaskill ROCKS!!! One of my favorite Obama surrogates.

[chaplinfan48]

Jesus, do we need any more proof of just how wrong McBush would be for President? Like James Carville said "If you liked the last 8, you're gonna love the next 4"

President Obama Get used to it

-Enjoy the day-

[sirdaveysockrocker]

god bobby jindal is such an asshole

[aknightofswords]

OMG. Are we all scared enough of the big bad whatever-they-put-in-front-of-­us yet? Can we go on believing that only the Republican party can save us?

[Reggis420]

It will happen, don't you worry.

[timer999o]

idoits know how to fight, smart people talk. if only america was run by smart people, if only.

[mexifriedtoad]

why is it that all the other medias outside the USA say that georgia picked this fight?

[paultherolls]

Time for a maverick shooting from the hip. Kick ass John. Throw Russia out of the G8. Hey, we have more nukes than they do and we should remind the Ruskies of this. The US media is a disgrace. Saakashvili fired the first salvo into South Ossetia. Only idiots would accept the US official story on Georgia. Someone like Canada's Stephen Harper, who thinks George Bush is quite a statesman, believes it. As John told us "There will be more wars". Well John, we can only hope you're there to lead us.

[NEOCONIDIOTS]

And the funny thing has to be how the leftist organizations who act like they are independent and bring unbiased news do nothing to tell the people what they can do to stop the corruption of government cuz, well they are in it too.

[JimboTHC]

Obama and McCain both suck.

Both voted to spy on you, Neither are serious about ending the bullshit in the middle east.

It's a Kremlin election, Two choices and both are going to continue Orwell's unending wars.

And really don't repeat talking points at me, I get the newsletter to. I heard the same sales pitch.

Guess what the rhetorics not matching the vote.

[NEOCONIDIOTS]

I'm with you.

Go to:

w ww.givemeliberty.o rg/revolution

and sign the formal Petitions for redress of Constitutional grievances. Also, please consider becoming a member. This is one of just a handful of organizations that are taking very significant steps to keep our Rights - ALL the ones enumerated in the Bill of Rights - Intact.

If the People won't defend their fundamental, unalienable, & natural Rights, then who will? The government? I don't think so.

[NEOCONIDIOTS]

I usually cheerlead leftist talking points but this was a little over the top. It had the same feel and rhetoric as Fox News to me except for the left. This is surely not what we need. The facts speak clearly for themselves. They don't need sesationalist hype to prove their points. that's my point.

[tomm2thumbs]

I honestly don't think I see a single shining star in the bunch of McCain options. Sucks to be you.

[ZingZee123456789]

The VERY LAST person I want to see sitting across a table from Vladimir Putin and Medvedev is John Sidney McCain.

His bellicose beligerancy will incite WW3 and will eventually get us all blown up!

We need some one with an objective mind and an even temper; someone who isnt going to throw a temper tantrum or curse someone out and that person is Barack Obama.

[osiris33]

The right is tone deaf.

[Plutonwolf]

Too bad they aren't color blind

[jsfumato]

Its a dangerous world... its scary like really wicked scary like threat level Orange ...oh and did i mention BOO! and terrorist threat and 9/11 ?

[luvangel330]

Kaine gets tough

[plumbine]

Lose a satellite, lose an election.

[tomm2thumbs]

Tom Ridge will NEVER make it as VP - watching him on video is like watching a dentist talk. You just want to close your eyes and get it over with. That being said, I hope McCain picks him. Bwahahahahahaha

[Plutonwolf]

Tom Rigid

[eljefereal]

"I do think that when the people of America are reminded of how dangerous the world is..." - Romney

And there you have it... The Republican strategy is officially fear-mongering.

[Mel1334]

'Defeat it'

If he's elected, we're all going to die. WW3.

[hypnofan35]

Ya But John McCain's and idiot! Plus Repulicans have an exagerated sense of drama. After all they bombed the trade towers and the pentagon and killed all those people and all that other stuff, and they still imagine anyone believes them.

[mexifriedtoad]

oh touche John McCain is AN idiot

[JobDDT]

THE SURGE THE SURGE THE SURGE

[Boobalopbop]

I wonder if Tim Pawlenty's real last name is Polenti, but changed it because Polenti looks too ethnic for Minnesota. He definitely looks italian, and Pawlenty sounds like a made up name.

Just a thought

[mcresearch]

Only in an Islamic country would a religious leader demand and get the two candidates for president to answer questions on their religious beliefs; oh, and the US.

[SplatLogic]

Bellicose is the word of the day ;)

[transmission696]

GOD HELP US

[HaloedG]

@ 4:19 why can't Romney ever answer a fucking question straight faced and directly.

@ 6:08...defeat evil? So McCain is The Dark Knight now? Fucking clown evangelicals.

[HaloedG]

McCain sitting across the table from Putin? McCain is toast. They obviously didn't see the Time Magazine person of the year interview earlier this year. Putin is as cool as a spring breeze. The guy is extremely level headed and calculated in his comments. He is of light humor, but understands his country and its people. McCain on the other hand is an oaf and a money hungry manipulator.

Obama 2008

[shroomduke]

The LAST person I want in charge of Foreign Policy is a Neocon/Republican like McCain. The Conservatives have screwed up everything they have touched, they've LIED, they've Broken our laws, pardoned Scooter Libby when he covered up for them, drug us into an unnecessary war so bush could have "Political Capital", subverted our Constitution, spied, etc

We ALL know if a Democratic president did ANY ONE of the MANY MANY things bush has done the Conservatives would be SCREAMING for IMPEACHMENT!

[Richardgwm]

100 years in Iraq.

George W McCain has promised to keep American troops in Iraq for 100 years.

100 years in Iraq.

[kargenlewis]

mcain is scary in that he would tempt ww3 to get election points

[publicgood]

Tom Ridge had a Freudian slip: "military is always the last result"

[PersonalJesus348]

"Obama knows we haven't had a Czechoslovakia in 20 years, he knows Pakistan and Iraq don't border each other."

haha if that didn't get you I don't know what will

[djtwostroke]

check the video .....Fascist Run USA Out of Control this explains whats going on.

[boots920]

The media doesn't even report who attacked who first.

Georgia attacked first, all this other crap is propaganda.

[copcorona]

IF McCain gets elected we will have WW3

[Soapnull]

AKA: The destruction of Earth.

[l1011l]

FYI-we're in WW3, McCain will help us win by staying on the offensive while Obama will cause us to lose by appeasing and retreating from our enemies.

Recall Churchill's wise words (paraphrasing):

'If you turn away from evil it grows two-fold in strength, if you confront evil it will shrink by half.'

[itfigures]

You have fun in WW3, Im going to continue to live in reality

[l1011l]

You mean the reality where Russia didn't invade the democratic country of Georgia, where 9/11 never happened and the Taliban and Al Qaeda are creations of the CIA?

Or where muslims terrorists are really 'freedom fighters' defending Islam? Suit yourself Michael Moore, just don't come crying to me when they nuke a city, poison your water supply, when Russia nukes Poland or get Iran manages to nuke Israel among all the other crazy developments happening in your non-reality.

[itfigures]

I take it that second paragraph is your fetishistic wishlist? The reason why there will be no "nukin's" is because there are very few sociopaths like yourself in positions of power. The few that are, are kept safely away from the bright shiny "Nukular" death buttons.

This is another reason why we can not abide another warmonger as president. We have to move on from this knee-jerk reaction of blowing shit up everytime a part of the world becomes destabilized.

P.S. Moore is a twat.

[l1011l]

You liberals are really fucked in the head. I'm simply informing you about the threats we're facing and you're calling me a sociopath and a warmonger.

No wonder they call you the looney left. Russia invades Georgia, its our fault. A psychotic apocalyptic death cult regime in Iran who wants nuclear war with America to bring about the "12th Imam" is trying to get WMDs and we're the evil ones for trying to stop them.

Well you sound exactly like Moore so that makes you a twat also.

[itfigures]

Okay, let's see. Never called you a warmonger. McCain is a warmonger. Never said it was our fault Russia invaded Georgia (it was Georgia's fault). Should there be a show of force? Yes. Should we vote in McCain and let him dance a jig while he orders boys and girls from middle America to drop bombs which kill maybe 1 badguy in 50 civilians? No. This has nothing to do with protecting America. Its about oil, greed, and keeping the no bid contracts flowing.

ENOUGH!

[papcyrill]

how fucked you are in the head??? georgians invaded south oseetia first,,and ppl of south ossetia are russian citizens,,russia protect ossetians from geergian attack,,the west media just ignoring this fact all the time!!Russia does the right thing!! Georgians are just an american prostitutes ,,i am speaking about a sakashvili goverment and not about the ppl!! what happening now in kaukasus happening with u.s support.

[l1011l]

Its called a ruse you gullible tool-I bet you swallowed the Russian propaganda of 'genocide' in S. Ossetia by Georgia too. It takes months of planning to prepare a military operation, how is it that all of a sudden all these Russian tanks/fighters appeared out of nowhere and started pounding the shit out of Georgia and now is occupying it?

Here's a real war for oil and energy hegemony by an autocratic, anti-western, anti-democracy state and who does the left blame? Yep its our fault again. lol

[papcyrill]

,we talk about russian army,,and armys like yours and russian have the ability to respond very quickly! i saw you profile,,you are an u.s citizen ,what else you could say except the bullshit you said!! and now you have this monkey Contoliza,she even look like human,,and she is so bloodthirsty,!!so give us a break!!!she has no idea about Georgia every time she is speaking about Gerogia ,she has someone to point her the at the map where is it!!

[MidnightChimes]

Where were the Republicans when the Russians were raping and pillaging Checnya? How were the Russians 'reasonable' then and 'evil' then?

[MidnightChimes]

McCain's advisors, who have been paid lobbyist to Georgia, encouraged Georgia to attack Russia to create an international incident to which ONLY McCain has access to. It plays to his base since the Georgians are Christians.

[notscooter952]

You guys can't take Russia out of the g8! Do you have any idea how rediculous that sounds? Man, talk about stoooopid. But your leaders love international tension, really it seems like they can't get enough of it.

Word.

[y2raza]

Romney is such a jack ass he can not even answer a question directly bcz he does not know shit abt South OSSETIA, he was asked a question abt Georgian president going on a misadventure & u got that same NEOCON BS answer of good & evil,bad & good,Holy & UnHoly,right & wrong, it only shows that Romney has no clue what so ever, he is just positioning himself behind Mccain realizing that the 71 yr old man may not go for 4 yrs or maybe even less so that mr snake oil salesman can jump into the saddle

[politicalfarce]

McCain knows Georgia, his top campaign adviser is a lobbyists representing the government of Georgia, and McCain has received millions from them.

So we should trust McCain. NOT.

[y2raza]

yes Mccain has been there but he can not even pronounce the name correctly oh please, SHOOSH-KA-VELI what a joke: it is Shakashvili & how is US going to hold any one accountable ???

[NEOCONIDIOTS]

wtf IS THIS CRAP?!!!! This is not news. This seems to me like more far left crap and obama ass kissing to me....And I'm a libertarian.

TMP you lost a subscriber.

[richradtylr]

you say that like they are going to lose sleep at night, because they have one less mccain dicksucking,riding,old,crusty,­balls mccain supporter.lol

[NEOCONIDIOTS]

Did you just read my comment? or are you just THAT much brainwashed. When did i say i supported mccain. I am a libertarian JACK***. just cause i don't like sensationalism and blindly follow someone then i MUST like and support mccain. your just another brainwashed foot soldier for the left media...DUDE!!!

[notscooter952]

lulz.

[taylor8407]

I think I'm with you on this one. Don't get me wrong. I usually cheerlead leftist talking points but this was a little over the top. It had the same feel and rhetoric as Fox News to me except for the left. This is surely not what we need. The facts speak clearly for themselves. They don't need sesationalist hype to prove their points.

[cosmlayla]

John McCain is a fake.

[masterhook]

on the question of evil, McCain fight, Obama fight if needed but try to see if we can stop it before it starts and also see that what we do, even if we think its good see that it will not be evil in the long run. Lets see, using just this one question Obama looks like the one who can lead and not keep putting us into wars that we cant win. McCain goes with the neocon idea that war is the only way to win. Yea I think Obama wins on that one.

[Hukeshy]

LOL the ending is awsome

[FeelFreeToArgue]

Mitt seemed to be having a bit of a problem w/ the question about Georgia maybe having some responsibility for what happened because it attacked S. Ossetia. All he can do is talk about how wonderful and freedom-loving and democratic Shakashvilli is.

I would love for McCain to pick Indian Exorcist Jindahl. That would be fun.

McCain's been to Georgia, he's been there many times, he's met the people there and he's received hundreds of thousands of dollars from them - so he knows they're ok.

[rell127]

is it me or did he say president mccain??

[bodah44]

"defeat it". oh my god if mccain was a honest man he would say you cant defeat evil just like you cant defeat "terror". this is deulistic thinking at its worst if america votes for the guy who says what they want to hear rather than what is true then they'll get the prez they deserve i wouldn't care if it didn't mean they would fuck up the rest of the world!

[itfigures]

McCain is running his campaign exactly they way he needs to. Slanderous, truthless attack ads and pandering to the religious right.

[foley15136]

There are 100 Senators. Would it be accepted as reasonable, like Ridge seems to be ok with, to send delegations to a war zone? Isn't that what the Secretary of State is for? Who will actually be speaking for the U.S.? Especially if there are a bunch of U.S. Senators and staff there talking to leaders.

[tito45]

Awesome last clip.

[Ed76638]

I think Bill Richardson is -- hands down -- the best VP choice for Obama, but he isn't going to get that slot because having a black & latino on the same ticket would be too offensive for "Stupid America" to handle.

[sleewatcher]

He would be a good choice and is more qualified than Obama.. but the fact that he looks and talks like a fat slime ball. And in todays TV generation unfortunately that matters alot.

[gallomex13]

How as a human would you think Evil only exist in one part of the world and that evil is the same people we are at war too while some of our own soldiers have shot a animals and children. McCain has the worst judgment and has no idea what a human needs to be a leader.

[gallomex13]

It seams that all this Republicans have to offer is to scare us more into Wars. WHO the fuck are we as a country to tell Russia not to invade a country shit at least they were attacked first we went into Iraq with out not one shot fire from the Iraqis.
