  • oooo-ohhhh-ohh -ahhh ahh !! ahhh!

  • I'm not from Florida. All the Republicans want is to give Obama a real hard time. Ex- Pres. G.W. Bush ruined this country. Made millionares into billionares. All of this is about greed. They're looting the government. And the middle and lower classes are paying for it. EVERYONE, VOTE OUT THE REPUBLICANS. They're wrecking unions. Before you know it, the retirement system will be gone. 20+ years of hard work and loyality gone. All because of GREED.

  • its going to go broke cause you'd rather spend that money on tax cuts and wars you fucking...fuck it i can't even think of a good word to describe that man.

  • People in Florida will eat Webster up and spit him out.

  • Love it! This is the true Grass-Roots movement, the working and middle-classes fighting to save their own lives!

  • I wonder if you people in Orlando are glad Grayson is gone now. You wanted Dan Webster, you got him!

  • Yes. Republicans have been trying to get rid of Medicare (and Social Security) from the time the programs were initiated.

    In May, 2001, Democrats voted to try and repeal 32 billion dollars ( over 10 years) in Oil Subsidies to the 5 biggest oil companies, Exxon, BP, etc

    The repeal of this Big government spending program was block by Industry-Bankrolled Senators, mostly of the Republican persuasion.

    EXXON Profits are $5 billion PER HOUR!

    Republicans think they need money - and healthcare none.

  • @Clarissa2424 OOPS that VOTE was in MAY, 2011.

    

  • Mr. Greyson...come back...please...come back.

  • 5:08 - And Bill Clinton (with, i admit, a little bi-partisan help from Moderate Republicans like Newt Gingrich) BALANCED THE FUCKIN' BUDGET!

  • THAT guy is POI-SONNNNNNN! Never trust a tax cut and a SMILE..

    THAT guy is POI-SONNNNNNN! He's DAN-GER-OUS!

  • REPUBLICAAANS...are robbin' her FOR THEMMMSELLLLLVES!

    Standing on their OWN TWO FEEET...

    Killin' Grandma off MEDIIICAAAAARE!

  • won't american medicare go broke in like 20 years or something? scare tactics at it's worst i say

  • If they didn't vote for Alan Grayson, they deserve everything that comes to them. Idiots.

  • Ryan is screwing the Veterans.

    He's a worthless sorry-ass bastard!

  • Town halls, upset over a bill concerning medicare, whaddaya know. The American people will yell at their politicians, even when they actually know the truth!

  • hahah webster is a member at my church!

  • ~++~**~*~In the wake of recent devastation caused by multiple tornadoes SOUTHERNERS now have nine NEW favorite words they love to hear::: : "I' m with the government and I'm here to help."

    *~

  • Oh noes, the dependant class is angry!

    Really, why do these people believe they are entitled to other people's stuff? It's ridiculous.

  • @Houshalter who do you think capitalists depend on for their contracts? why don't you go put on some black boots and brown trousers and masquerade with the rest of the drumbeating maniacs. fascist.

  • @mangajo and you're a communist. Go molest children or something.

    See where ad hominems and strawman fallacies get us?

  • @Houshalter "dependent class"

  • @mangajo "dependant [dɪˈpɛndənt]

    n

    a person who depends on another person, organization, etc., for support, aid, or sustenance, esp financial support

    Usage: Avoid confusion with dependent"

  • @Houshalter you still haven't acknowledged another class of "dependants" who depend on workers or organizations or state apparatuses to extract rent and yada yada yada. the point was to problematize your conception of private property so that you might acknowledge the benefits of a welfare system.

  • @mangajo I don't "depend" on the actions of others, I merely choose to trade and associate however benefits me most. That's not dependency, it's merely mutual cooperation.

  • these idiots who voted grayson out should be ashamed!!

  • Eggs and Tomatoes! Eggs And Tomatoes!

  • Screw you, Florida.

    You voted a Republican into office so choke on it.

  • @Kamicolod LOL, agreed

    Voting Grayson out, you got EXACTLY what you voted for, Florida.

    Now DIE QUICKLY at the hands of the GOP crook you voted in so the next generation can vote Grayson back in, who ironically already warned you about this VERY thing!...

    Choke on it, Florida. You dipshits dug your own fucking graves.

    xD

  • @Kamicolod Rick Scott won by less than a percent, remember, half of us are pissed right along with you

  • Comment removed

  • Would've Been Funnier If There Was A Mob Of Angry People Outside With Pitchforks and Blowtorches.

  • This asshiole supported cutting funds for the Homeless Veterans, many of whom suffer from PTSD because of 3 or 4 tours in Iraq

    Of course Ryan & his fellow scumballs say they'll bring back funds later...next year maybe...sure they will, ..not...the sorry bastards -- people arent buying the crap any more.

  • Republicans: beyond hypocrisy, beneath contempt.

  • Gonna be even funnier when the dollard tank and they end DEFENSE, MEDICARE, SOCIAL SECURITY ... wake the fuck up.

  • Hang His Ass!!! :D

  • republican for the win :D

  • "Rise up and take the power back, it's time that

    The fat cats had a heart attack, you know that

    Their time is coming to an end

    We have to unify and watch our flag ascend"

    Muse - Uprising

  • Would've Been Funnier With Hundreds Of Pissed Off People Outside The Building With Pitchforks And Torches.

  • Its painful to wake up to realize you live in a corporate fascist satanic occult nation of lies, people are really not too happy to realize this and go to work to pay huge taxes and be debt slaves. They built the fema camps for a reason, they know people are waking up, and no its doesnt matter who you vote for, thats fake also.

  • @chuck3377 alex jones doesnt make me want to act he makes me afraid. we need a more measured assessment of what's really going on

  • @mangajo I dont follow Alex Jones, he is a freemason, a new type of Rush Limbaugh. What is really going on is a satanic new world order of corporate fascism, I dont need a weather man to know which way the wind blows.

  • @chuck3377

    LOL, you nutters just get crazier by the day.

  • @chuck3377 agreed.  love the dylan reference

  • Eggs And Tomatoes! Eggs And Tomatoes!

  • Too bad for the srupid people wko didn't vote for Grayson.

  • people destroy their bodies all their lives then expect other people to pay for their medical care.

  • The sad part is, most people vote republican because they say they're the party that follows the Bible. The stupid Christians in our country don't even know their own Bible well enough to see that Republicans couldn't be further from the teachings of their own Jesus. They use that to get the votes then line their pockets.

  • I'm never voting not that I ever did :/

  • I like Tom Wilson!

  • YOU"RE A LIAR HAHAHAHa!! I Hope Americans Start Throwing Eggs,Pies,Tomatoes,And Dirty Diapers At These Town Hall Meetings!!

  • Seriously, don't feed the trolls. There's no point. Why bother debating with a retard. It's like having an intelligent conversation with your dog. ain't gonna happen.

  • I Hope I See More Angry Americans At Town Hall Meetings Speaking The Truth To All These CROOKED ASS SUITS!

  • were trying to lower our deficit and the republicans want to CUT taxes... WHAT THE FUCK AMERICA

  • @theworm1244 dont be an idiot, especially dont be an idiot then make us look @ it.

    Your taxes dont goto anything but paying interest on debts. You dont get out of debt by increasing taxes on people you nob, that makes the people that make the country prosper, poorer.

    You pay back the debt by generating profit in the consumer sector and heavily taxing the companies that are feeding off the needs of the great people of w/e nation you choose.

    History proves this.

  • stupid yanks...in the UK the term 'pissed' means to be drunk...learn English you dumb colonials.

  • Nothing will ever change in Washington until you get rid of the rats (lobbyists) and implement some drastic campaign finance reform. These fuckers will keep selling out America for bags of money.

    Big Pharma and the Health Care lobby are getting what they paid for!

  • Every now and then a truly unique person comes along - a fine gem, beautifully cut, with all the right angles.. willing to put up a massive unstoppable fight for YOU the people. His head is screwed on straight indeed is incredibly clever, he has no ulterior agendas and he fought aggressively and fearlessly for the ordinary ppl's interests and rights.

    What a sad day when Alan Grayson was lost .. in there swinging for the powerless!

    I am stunned ..

    !

  • The only just thing to do if Medicare is done away with is to reimburse people every penny they have paid into it with fair accommodation for inflation. Minus whatever benefits, if any, have been paid out. Anything less is fraudulent theft.

  • @TEMPEWITNESS -- You may think that's fair but it cant work that way. If you're under 55 you will still be expected to pay in the same amount, you just wont get the same benefits. You cant because they must get more billions to billionaires.

  • @DillonDee1 I hope that is you being sarcastic.

  • Bill Clinton didn't create jobs, the free market did. Little thing called the INTERNET was popularized during his administration. Now I know His VP claimed to invent the Internet but, his Presidency was not as great as Cenk leads you to believe.

  • Republicans are Nazis

  • @akamal1113: No they are not. They are worse.

  • Congressman kept pointing to his charts... see there guys?. there your answers !!!

    Repub Congressman memo to self prescreened all questions first !

  • Ron Paul is the only republican that is for the people

  • @johnocc yeah? He just made it rather clear he wants to completely cut all social programs.

  • @johnocc Are you high? Ron Paul already said he wanted to ELIMINATE both Medicare and Medicaid.

    The only Republican I would accept anymore would be a true Moderate Conservative, I'm done with Ron Paul and the rest of the more extreme bullshit.

  • @tj203 thats true, but he also said doing it instantly would be economically horrible. he said there would be a long transition period to get rid of it.

  • thats how a townhall should be

  • This what you fucking get Orlando for voting out Alan Grayson. Enjoy your crappy Daniel Webster. You better hope that Grayson runs again in Orlando.

  • The only reason medicare is losing money is because the private HC companies are ripping off the system. Private HC takes the healthy and wealthy and dumps all the old/poor and chronically ill on the government.

  • So that explains Congressman Daniel Webster made a deal with the devil..just like that classic movie...very interesting!!!!

  • RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE

  • why are republicans even giving town hall meetings? they're not working for the american voter. they are only used to giving talks to their corporate and financial backers

  • No surprise there.  Florida is an overwhelmingly Christian state. No one should be surprised that Christians are easily conned.

  • Harry Reid is gonna capitalize on this ..he's gonna make the senate vote on the ryan bill .gonna get the republcans on record .cant wait

  • Bet they regret getting rid of Alan Grayson now

  • Dan Webster is a no talent add clown.

  • The guy is a slime ball - we have some of the lowest tax rates now, and yet, the highest unemployment we've seen in several decades. No politician has ever cared to explain that.

  • haha, i love it. republican congressman only cares about money. that lady doesnt give a shit she just wants to know that she's insured

  • For an ordinary middle class American to vote republican and expect some sort of economic or social benefit is insane. Funny thing is, the people in the crowd seemed to be up on the issues. Sad how they're now going to get reamed right up the ass. And they gave Allen Grayson the boot? Unbelievable.

  • Its SO shady. It doesn't apply to people over 55 because they are like the core GOP voters. Anyone 54 and under gets screwed.  And call it whatever they want its a weak ass voucher.

  • so ironic his name is daniel webster, a lawyer who defended those who couldn't defend themselves.

  • GOP is so full of shit I wonder if they even believe their own nonsense!!!

  • @28stads it is not established that everyone at that town hall is a democrat. So maybe no.

  • Ha, ha, that police officer looks nervous :o

  • Take tax payer dollars and give them to private insurance companies. Asshole GOP.

  • That's what im fucking talking about!!! knowledge is beautiful.

  • I live for this stuff

  • I love how these idiots who voted the republicans in are finally realizing what they've done.

  • @ekuwa69 serves the dumb bastards right

  • Alan Grayson is sitting somewhere smiling at this.

  • JENK please please fix the lighting on this set - soft from above best but soft anyway. NOT from both sides!

  • Inbreeding everywhere.

  • 2:13 "put aside the yelling"? PUT IN THE YELLING AND MORE!

  • "They came to play man" LOL

  • Actually that woman is not 100% right here. Of course the insurance companies will take her. What, do you actually think they will turn down $15,000. Its after they get the money in their greedy little hands is when she should be concerned. Because the second she has a serious medical problem she will immediately be dropped.

    So the costumer gets screwed, the insurance company gets 15 thousand in tax dollars and the free market system moves on to its next victim.

  • The old guy in the back raising his hand, he never got called on...

    Poor guy.

  • The sheep are getting uppity no worries this time next year half of them will be homeless.. so it's all good..and homeless can't vote HAHAHA baaddaa boom..

  • This is what they get, dumb fucks, you allowed yourself to be race bated and fear mongered into voting for these asses - you get what you get.

  • STOP VOTING REPUBLICAN FOR THE LOVE OF GOD HOW MUCH EVIDENCE DO YOU NEEEEEED

  • @mangajo as long as there is not a "vote of non confidence" box on every ballot it is not a democracy it is a democratic regime.

    gotta love it guy has a cop beside him, those cops are the people before they are yours you trumped up lobbiest politician

  • @mangajo I would hope video footage of fascism would be enough.

  • @mangajo I know there are lots of crazy stupid people in the US but I do think the elections lately have been fixed.. the voting machines can easily be rigged and it has been shown thru testimony before the Ohio legislature that the republicans have asked for that to be done..

    watch?v=JEzY2tnwExs

  • @xadam2dudex well we do know the republicans, especially of late, will stop at almost nothing to get what they want, including destroying the social fabric of our country, so i wouldnt put it past them to do that either. great video by the way thanks

  • @mangajo You're confusing Republicans with individualists/anarchists/obje­ctivists. Republicans and Democrats are the same thing. I on the other hand fall into the latter category. Trust me, I believe all political forms of government are immoral and certainly do want the country to collapse, and I'm willing to help the process along, But Republicans (even the Teaparty) want NOTHING to do with people like myself who actually value freedom. There is no difference between Bush and Obama.

  • @Huboons well said i agree

  • : D

    The sad thing about it is, as angry as they are now, they will have forgotten about it come the next elections, or the ones thereafter.

  • How about adding some subtitles for videos with shitty sound quality?

  • HEY! Here's those townhalls we were supposed to start seeing!

  • This is why I voted for a third party. I can't be blamed for any of this.

  • Obama has released his birth certificate lol.. and he is 100% american who would have guessed ( sarcasm)

  • BUSTED!

  • Sick'em boy!

    Arf-arf-arf!

  • EVERY politician is just like this douche. a LYING SACK OF SHIT

  • @lucifer898 This is because people believe them. We need better news reporting around the world. If people don't vote for a politician when he/she is caught in a lie, politicians will stop lying.

  • @shraka Though then they'll just stop saying anything substantive or subscribing to any particular view, which is starting to happen in Australia.

  • No one is trying to cut Medicare or decrease the benefits. But the fact is, if nothing is done to improve Medicare it will go bankrupt in no time and everyone will lose all their benefits. Ryan's helps solve the Medicare crisis, and helps balance the budget by creating more jobs, sustaining medicare, and cutting government spending. I know liberals don't like taking responsible or accepting facts, they much prefer yelling and crying. But those are the facts, and no leftist can deny it.

  • @tehant1liberal i can the people who said we are cutting medicare want to it will go bankrupt if people are using it ryan cuts medicare it not sustaining it believe it or not the people can pay for everyones insurance if you dont believe me find the numbers and run them yourself that is a damn lie as the people in that townhall would say. and im not a leftist i just do what facts point to will work if there are no facts either way i do what i thnk will work

  • @tehant1liberal You'dbe a good replacement for Michael Steele.

  • @tehant1liberal

    You're hilarious!

  • @tehant1liberal Actually, cutting Medicare or Social Security will cut the government jobs that are under those set systems. And the rich tax cuts have no job multiplier effect what so ever. The only jobs that are growing right now are bottom feeding service jobs. Paul Ryan's plan doesn't even start balancing the budget until 2040 of which is a disgrace. Especially when the liberal plan balances the budget with a surplus, and allows Medicare to stay as is. Clearing the deficit in a few years.

  • @tehant1liberal: Nobody believes your bullshit lies anymore. So just collect your Koch dime and fuck off into the shameful obscurity you so richly deserve. You are one epic fail.

  • Floridian Republicans are the dumbest of the dumb.

  • Looks like the Demmies just believe anything they hear on MSNBC about cuts to medicare. What a bunch of sheep.

  • @Bellita1 If you still think in terms of "Demmies versus Reppies" you're the sheep.

  • @megamarsvin ,

    What terms do you think along. Or you don't think at all?

  • @Bellita1 If you must know, I form opinions based on information I receive about specific subjects. I don't go "My party says Obama care is socialism so Obama must be the anti christ", similarly I also don't go "Bush does bad things so he must be a Nazi."

    In short I have my own opinions. Sometimes they align with "the left", sometimes with "the right" but usually they don't align with either of them. Sheep following the herd on either side causes problems. Democracy wasn't made for followers.

  • @Bellita1; says the GOP troll with the empty YouTube shill account. It must really suck to be a worthless cowardly fraud like you.

  • @Silberdachs Little baby Democrat is upset because I have an empty youtube account. Let me guess you want my address so you can come harm me? You Demmies tend to be extremely violent. At least I am not a Sheep of MSNBC.

  • @Bellita1: Lame retort from a worthless coward. Sub-pathetic.

  • @Silberdachs Hahahah, you must be one of those loser anarchists. Are you going to disrupt the wedding in the UK this weekend? What's the matter, you blame everyone else because you life is shit. Fuck You.

  • @Bellita1: My life is real sweet, you stinking fucking loser. Jeez, it must really suck to be a lousy piece of shit coward like you. Do the world a big favor - fuck off and die asap.

  • @Silberdachs If I am ever on your side of the Atlantic I will gladly come kick your ass, then we will see who the coward is. Not sure how you can have a sweet life when you live in a shithole like the UK. Fuck Off you anarchist piece shit.

  • @Bellita1: More empty chickenhawk bullshit from a worthless limp-dicked ass-sucking coward. You couldn't punch your way out of a wet paper bag, you pathetic cunt.

  • @Silberdachs, How can a be a limp dick and a cunt at the same time? Go swallow cum you british faggot. How come brits talk like faggots? You cuntry is a 3rd world piece of shit, that is we people left and created the USA the greatest country on earth.

  • @Bellita1 you're just angry cuz your country is shitting on you. wake up for christs sake and stop making us look like the dumbest people on earth

  • @mangajo I am not angry, Silberdach is angry because he lives in a shit hole like the UK. Where do you live?

  • @Bellita1 doesnt matter, thats the point

  • @Bellita1: More vacuous troll spew from a certifiable cretin. It must really suck to be a worthless failure like you.

  • @Bellita1 you're worse. You're a sheep to Murdoch and Fox Noise

  • @oakaveli Yeah, Fox New is worse than MS-DNC. At least Fox is "FAIR AND BALANCED" and presents dissenting opinions. MS-LSD doesn't do that.

  • @Bellita1 yeah right. If you actually believe that tagline, you're a moron. Plus, MSNBC is NOWHERE near liberal

  • @oakaveli You are completely INSANE if you don't think MSNBC is liberal. How many drugs do you take or do you need to take your medication. They even say they are liberal everyone on that show is a liberal.

  • @Bellita1 sure. if they are so "liberal" why did they get rid of their number 1 liberal Olbermann???? That's like Fox News firing O'Reilly

  • @oakaveli Then Fox isn't conservate either.  They fired Beck. I guess they are "Fair and Balanced"

  • @Bellita1 nope. they fired him because he lost 300+ advertisers. And, being conservatives, all Fox Noise cares about is their profit motive, so they let him go because he was being a liability. They didn't fire O'Reilly and won't because HE MAKES MURDOCH A LOT OF MONEY!!!!

  • @oakaveli And Olbermann couldn't beat Fox News so they Fired him.

  • @Bellita1: Bwahahahaha! oakaveli and mangajo just kicked your worthless fat ass. Ain't nothing sadder than a failed troll. You really are sub-pathetic. 

  • @Silberdachs If having a 6 fixure salary qualifies as a failure, then I am one. Looks like you didn't get to pull off terrorist attacks against Will & Kate. How is life as a piece of shit anarchist?

  • @Bellita1: Bwahaha! You dumbass, the only way you get a six figure salary is if you count cents as two of the digits. As for Will & Kate, why on earth would I want to 'pull off a terrorist attack' against them? Oh yeah, I forgot, it's entirely a figment of your diseased imagination. Don't you know that assumption is the mother of all fuck-ups? Like that time your Daddy assumed your Mommy had taken her birth control pill. Jeez, that assumption really did lead to the mother of all fuck-ups: YOU !

  • @Silberdachs Conservatives generally have higher salaries than Liberals, that is why liberals hate them so much. You can deny my salary all you want but it doesn't change the facts. You seem like the anarchist type so I figured you would try to disrupt their wedding along with your loser friends. Go Blow Prince Charles you welfare piece of shit

  • @Bellita1: Oh dear, there you go again with your assumptions and generalizations. I'm an English conservative, which I guess makes me a far left loon by America's fucked-up standards. I've never been on welfare in my life. I built up a successful IT business which I sold when I was 42 for a real eight-figure sum and I've not needed to work since. In 2006 I invested heavily in gold bullion. The return on that investment has been very satisfactory. And your claim to weath & fame is what exactly?

  • @Silberdachs Yeah, that is right an English Conservative is a left-wing nut job in the states. I hope you paid your fair share to your government for your lucky windfall. I hope you paid them at least 50% in taxes since you are a fat cat. I am a CPA.

  • @Bellita1: So you're a Cocksucking Pedo Asswipe. Well, that figures. LMAO! 

  • @Silberdachs Yeah, that's what I thought You couldn't even Run a Lemonaide Stand you Fucking Loser. Sold an IT company for 8-figures sum my ass.

  • @Bellita1: Run it, ha! You can't even spell it. The only fucking loser around here is you. Enjoy your pathetic obscurity, you neo-con facist asswipe. It's all you'll ever achieve in your sad and sorry excuse for a life. You are the epitome of epic fail.

  • @Silberdachs If I can't spell "it" then how come I spelled it correctly everytime? Let me guess you sold you XBox for 50 bucks a few years ago and you retired in you mothers basement. hahahahahahaha

  • @Bellita1: to quote your previous troll fart: "You couldn't even Run a Lemonaide Stand"

    It's Lemonade, you dumb fuck.

    I guess you're word-blind as well as terminally mendacious. What a sad worthless self-congratulatory asshole you are.

    Truly pathetic.

  • @Bellita1

    So you think that's the only reason?

    Maybe, in your love for the rich vulotures would be happy to hear that GE paid less in taxes than you last year.

    And I'm sure you are extremely happy about the bonuses Bush gave to Wall Street out of your tax money. If you think of middle class as losers, than you show a staggering contempt for most of your own countrymen. Which brings me to this question: Are you an Anti-American, pro corporate fascist and a terrorist sympathiser?

  • @bohemianwriter1 You are a complete idiot. What do you know about tax law and GE's Tax Position? It is easy to say they made $14Billion but paid no taxes. Do you know what their tax revenue was or what their net loss carryforwards were? Of course you don't because you know nothing of taxes. If GE Broke the law then they should be punished. If you don't like the law change it.

    What Bonuses did Bush give to Wall Street? You mean the bonuses they paid back with interest?

  • @bohemianwriter1 I am Pro American, Pro Corporation, Pro Rich, Pro Middle Class, Anti - Poor / Loser, Muslim Hater, Obama Hater, PRO CAPITALISM.

    Are you Pro Goverment, Anti Corporation, Anti Capitalist, Pro Socialist, Pro Anarchist, Pro Muslim Terrorist?

  • @Bellita1

    I'm pro democracy. That means anti corporatism. Which is one of the compontents of fascism. Mix it in with militarism, natioinalism, religion, and social injustice, then you have a Fascist state. Apparently YOUR Utopia. When your corporatist heros, Ayn Rands wet dream, then you are anti American. I am pro social justice. Anti religion, (your fundies have more in common with islamist than you dare to acknowledge). Thomas Jefferson would have detested your gut....

  • @bohemianwriter1 Since you are against corporations, I hope you are self employeed. Since you are against corporations, that is one of the components of communism / socialism. Apparently, YOUR Utopia. When you are a communist then you are anti American. When you are Anti Religion, then that is a component of Communism also. Our founding fathers would have detested your guts.

  • @Bellita1 first thomas pain thomas jefferson and abraham lincoln were all deists so being anti religion is common in founding fathers second its no secret the corpotations are making deals with the politicians so they can screw the people who do all the work. just standing against that doesn't make a you a communist

  • Here you go the GOP you voted for. Suckers. Of course the give a few little concessions over the next few month and you fools will think they've changed and you'll vote for them again.

  • I'm uncertain if you can blame the voters in this sense - not yet. The thing is, these premises were proposed by the conservatives, and they took this as: we can push -any- agenda we want. I am as liberal as they come, but there are a lot of things being done in their name that they definitely did not vote for.
