  • I wouldn't be too quick to mock his store story, Cenk. The sheer variety of food that we have in this country does amaze and overwhelm people from other countries sometimes. I've heard accounts of people who've spent decades in poorer countries trying to shop here and giving up, overwhelmed by how much damn food (and choices related to it) that we have.

  • Disgrace to Indians!

  • I don't think the problem of Hurricane Katrina was "too little government" or "too much government." The government was not applied correctly. Rescue workers were not deployed fast enough. Infrastructure was inadequate for the forces the hurricane brought (which, granted, were greater than anyone had anticipated until the storm was imminent). In this way, the solution is neither the creation or deletion of government, but a reevaluation of how it is being managed and spent.

  • @ahgrieser you should check out who was at the top of FEMA at the time..

  • Comment removed

  • The Turk thinks govt needs to be bigger...lol tell that to the 14 trillion dollar debt buddy...How bout don't build a damn city in a bowl surrounded by water.

  • @MIDWEST507REPIN A lot of that 14 trillion debt is from two unfunded wars in the middle east, courtesy of our last president, g-dubya!

  • @NowKillYourself Um, try again. During "g-dubya"'s presidency, the years with the highest deficit were 2004 with a $412 billion deficit (due to the two wars in the middle east) and 2008 with a $458 billion deficit (due to the economic crisis which Bush was unable to handle). This translates to 3.48% and 3.18% of the GDP respectively.  In his first two years, Obama ran up a deficit of $1,413 billion and $1,293 billion, or 10.0% and 8.9%. The debt when Obama entered office was $10.6 trillion.

  • 2012 is coming...the absurdity of certain political party agendas is going to come up and this video will be relevant again

  • I am indian, this was fucking embarrassing, as an Indian guy. I think i probably switched the channel 3 mins in.

  • Ge, Get in the water! haha. Cenk is too good

  • HAHAHH BOOBY JINDALOO IS SOOO FUCKING FUNNY...LOL

  • "Fortunately for me, [my father] never missed a payment."

    Lil' Bobby worried that--if a final notice got missed--the Big-Bads would come, and repossess him from Mommy & Daddy. [everyone in unison,now] Awwwww...

  • While obama had his thumb up his ass during the Gulf crisis this guy got things done. I would take him over obamanation any day of the week.

  • Is this a fucking bedtime story?

  • I hate this stupid show no one cares about your fake jokes, bobby jindal is just not that prepared, he is just storytelling

  • @amanslive you hate tyt? but you watch tyt clips? this makes no sense to me. i hate fox, so i don't watch fox.

  • @amanslive I hate fox to, but you should open-minded to watch other shows, I dont like tyt cause they call this reporting, and someone reffered this vid to me

  • @amanslive They always call it "commentary," though.

  • Oh so what Cenk is saying that only white Republicans can sound southern- I suppose Cenk expects Jindal to come out speaking Indian or something.

  • @JermzzzyFTW no not indian, but at least SOMEwhat educated, it wasn't just his accent, but his word choice and delivery style.

  • @JermzzzyFTW

    No, he's saying that Jindal is pathetic at faking accents. I'm not white, I have a slight southern accent (I'm not black, either), but at least I don't fake it. It's just hilarious.

    Anyways, OBAMA 2012!

  • I love Jindal- he's proof you don't need to be white to be a kickass Republican :)

  • Gee wiz beave, is that true. Bad acting on Jindals part. I guess some of them are better actors...

  • this guy is like an indian redneck, never seen one before

    i am indian and i wouldn't vote him, embarrassing

  • Jindal is doing a good job, Louisiana's economy is coming back. Baton Rouge has one of the fastest growing job markets in the country. So fuck theyoungturks. It's like stupid liberals have no idea how the economy or life works. Dumb ass liberals also don't understand with every decision you make there's pros and cons.

  • @CrazyBrah21 u do realize that your comment is completely irrelevant to this clip? He gave a bad speech two years ago, what does that have to do with what you're saying 2 years later?

  • Why do American's keep referring to their president as the leader of the free world? That's a little bit scary.

  • @451harri,

    He basically is the leader of the free world. America keeps most other free countries, free.

  • @TheFlanker35 Via imperialist meddling.

  • @451harri,

    Not in most places, but some. Most of the US occupied places aren't free.

  • @TheFlanker35 America doesnt really keep anyone free...most country's can and do handle themselves....In fact, America set up governments all around the world because even mention of the word communism makes the average american shit themselves....leader of the free world...lol what a joke....

  • @stupidfleshmonkies,

    No, it makes us want to exterminate a major infestation and cancer. Communism is a cancer on individual rights and liberties. We've made some mistakes, but most of the governments we set up are way better than the alternative, whether they're elected or not.

    If it weren't for the US, the Soviet Union would have taken over the entire world. Every free country today is dependent on the US for protection from China, Russia, and radical Muslims.

  • @stupidfleshmonkies,

    Whether America should or shouldn't set up those governments is another story, but the governments were overwhelmingly established with good intentions.

    Most of East Asia would fall to China without American presence and Europe would have fallen to Communist, now Fascist, Russia. Without an American presence in countries like Egypt, Mubarak would have ruled like Kadafi and protesters would all be immediately shot on sight.

  • @TheFlanker35 Are you serious? Good intentions? Lol those govrnments were set up because of how cared we were of communism, we didnt give two shits about the people there. We got rid of rightfully elected leasders and replaced them with muderous dictators... You continuosly got involved in latin american affairs. Do people not have a right to determine what kind of government they want? If the people want communism, let them have it...its not our problem, its their choice to make, not ours...

  • @stupidfleshmonkies,

    When an elected government persecutes and infringes on the rights of the individual, it is to be deposed one way or another. If a majority votes to legalize slavery or human sacrifice, it is still a bad thing a should be overthrown. The Sandinistas and Allende infringed on individual rights and those individuals asked the US for aid. Our charity has never been appreciated by most.

  • @TheFlanker35 First, thats not up to us to decide. We arent the worlds moral police. Second, are you say you would agree that coutnry's would have had the right to overthrow our government before 1864, because of slavery? Plus, we infringe on peoples rights today, like the patriot act for example... if most people dont apreciate our "charity" then we're doing it wrong and should probably stop doing it...like i said, other countries economic systems arent our problem...

  • @stupidfleshmonkies,

    "Second, are you say you would agree that coutnry's would have had the right to overthrow our government before 1864, because of slavery?"

    Yes, if sincerely antislavery and not just pro-slavery in everything but name like Britain or Mexico. If slavery was the only thing that changed, absolutely. And that's exactly what Lincoln eventually said because he was overthrowing the state governments in the Confederacy.

  • @stupidfleshmonkies,

    "if most people dont apreciate our "charity" then we're doing it wrong"

    Not necessarily. Sometimes, a majority can persecute a minority and the minority(religion) should be protected.

    "We arent the worlds moral police"

    True, but we still should do what's right. A private citizen who is not a civic police officer should help prevent murders and crime when the police cannot.

    If this isn't effective, we should try something else, but the intentions are still good.

  • no ,kenneth.. have you seen glen garry glen ross?

  • tell hatchetface that fiscal conservatives will not even bend to your 30rock , ellen cleghorn!

    How dare you , butch dyke and old dude used to be basketball scumbag, exactly.

    Liberal failure as a model on how to crush mad cow disease.

  • Peter Griffin laughs at 0:57...

  • Jindal has got to be the biggest phony I have ever seen.

  • I hope Jindal runs in 2012, so that Obama and the democrats have a shot at winning.

  • Kumar!!

  • Barney Fife!!

  • I used to like young Turks. But I'm increasingly getting confident that this fat guy on tv is as discriminatory as some right-wing fundamentalists. Now he is a new face of MSNBC. Everyone who knows the biased history of it will know what kind of guy this is. He is no different to Rush Limbaugh of Fox News!

  • RepubliTARD!

  • Nitwits focus on appearances rather than accomplishments and substance. Jindall is a terrible speaker but a brilliant governor. La. is the only state that added jobs during this recession. Jindall now has a 77% approval rating from his constituents. Only a buffoon would mock the man simply because he doesn't give a good dramatic performance. He's a governor, not an actor. He does, however, come across well in interviews.

  • @YerushalayimShelZaha

    Yea thats true.Oil cleanup jobs.

  • If Jindal spoke with a stereotypical Indian accent you wouldn't call him white on the inside. Fuck you youngturks your bias is beyond that of even Fox news.

  • Thats why MOST people in the world are stupid and will continue to vote in a Mickey Mouse for public office always. You base the way he talks to his inevitable defeat for the 2012 election??? Please comment on his policies and not judge on his manner of speaking as yourself has flaws in your style.

  • lol how did Louisiana actually vote for this creepy muppet?!?

  • Dude..... This guy is a definite coconut. Brown on the outside white on the inside. What a disgrace to Indian-Americans. He even converted just so people would like him. When you have to change yourself for peoples approval, you kill yourself.

  • Comment removed

  • @Vedas4 Brown on the outside white on the inside? that's Obama you're talking about.

  • Doesn't that make him an anchor baby?

  • @azmildman Hahahaha!

  • did anyone else catch the " we need more government to take care of us" shit? it was a goddamn hurricane not an earthquake. people knew it was coming and also got told to leave but refused. why should we be responsible for the irresponsible? more libral turk rhetoric

  • your laugh is the best part of this video lol

  • piss off adverts at the start of video's

  • So... his father worked out a payment plan with the doctor and never missed a payment which is great. But if he did miss a payment what exactly was he going to do? Repossess the baby?

  • @FURepublicans Maybe he should have!

  • Bobby Jindal is a hero. Maybe this speech wasn't the best, but judging him for having a southern accent and being Indian is wrong. He's been great for Louisiana.

  • he is indian soon he will start to bring more of his people and he is a ugandan deport idi amin kissed these silly racists in africa

  • What a contrived, false mechanical and even stupid ass hole -good taste he is not! I am Indian -but this guy he is what we call a bag of slippery - Give him a chapati -ask him to put on a pyjama and let a charsmatic Sikh (instead of this twit) carry the torch -Fucker make me want to apologise for all Indians -YUKK Meadows  was so right to be speechless!

  • Im from Louisiana, and this guy just made the people of our state look stupid..Why is he talking like that??? *faceplam*

  • 10 bucks says Cenk never missed a meal or worried about how he was going to pay the rent. Typical Yuppie that has zero sympathy for anyone he can not relate to. Cenk obviously thinks he is so much smarter than his listeners. Growing up I would have looked forward to stomping a mudhole in him and then stomping it dry. (figuratively of course)

  • The righties sure know how to pick em'.

  • ok + 10 for intentions

    but - 90 for delivery

  • I cant for the life of me figure out why the young Turk would prefer a bigger govt.

    Really the mind boggles. When somethings broken you dont fix it, you expand it.

    Ah, I see the reasoning now.

  • seems to me like bobby busha from waterboy

  • I feel like I am back in kindergarten!

  • SaD!! this is what the right has to offer....  i hope palin jindal run in 2012...obama will win for sure

  • @kalikev no,obama is a terrible man! did you hear that 9/11 speech???!?!?!

  • pretty dumb cuz while it was a bureaucrat who stopped them from doing the rescue, it was also the sheriff who tried to start the rescue

  • he sounds especially like kenneth from 30 rock from 1:20 to 1:38

  • Gov. Bobby Jindel and Gov. Haley Barbour love to talk about the incompetence of the federal government, but they failed to utilize but the smallest fraction of the national guard at their disposal during the BP oil mess. Incompetent governing at the state level run by two republican blowhards.

  • i can't understand how anyone could create a "fake speech" incriminating a public official and not go to jail.

  • Wow this guy an idiot. The problem with Hurricane Katrina wasn't gov't being to small, it was gov't not being effective - in communicating amongst one another. Young Turks, how about Young Fucks?

  • Jindal is an idiot....he is really clueless and I find that out the more I hear him speak!

  • What can you expect from a Republican, if they are not placing the worst president in American history in the white house, they are soliciting gay sex in an airport bathroom, or having a creepy Indian version of Mr.Rogers talking to you like your a 1st grader. Its really kind of sad how low the GOP has sunk.

  • He sounded like he was talking to a class of second and third graders. He speech was backward looking and not forward looking. He did nothing to improve the image of the Republican Party.

  • Jindal's speech made the Republican Party look pathetic, corrupt and out-of-touch. Nice way to condemn government spending by using Katrina as an example.

  • That Bobby Jindal speech was one of the most painfull things I have ever seen in my life. The Republican party is completely FUCKED if they think this guy is the answer to their problems. I want to know what Government bureaucrat this Sheriff was on the phone with, lol. Insurance and proof of registration, lol, hahahahaha! Come on, really? You expect us to believe that? What he's getting at is "The damn Democrats wouldn't let us get in the water and save people!" HAHAHAHA

  • I think Bobby Jendel is so very handsome. More power to him! God Bless! 

  • Maybe it's time we stopped worrying about what someone looks like, and start worrying about what experience and track record they have. Obama looked good in his campaigning, but now we see what a loser he is. No executive experience means no action.

  • @ConservativeRuleinUS lol... no.

  • Jindal will be the next president

  • pathetic fuck

  • ...this guy sounds like Glenn Beck...

  • lol whatever u guys say abt jindal about his speaking skills ... no worries indians will rule america in the coming years

  • @jon0441 I am an Indian and I'm ashamed of Jindal's stupidity... the Indians you say who will Rule America already do with their brains... and sadly, Bobby's a cat-in-the-hat shit that not even Indians understand...

  • This speech ranks up there amongst my favourite awful political speeches of all time. The Daily Show did an amazing bit on this.

  • then u run 4 prez the young FAGS :)

  • Bobby Jindal is a fuck.... The guy gave a girl an exorcism when he was in college, go look it up

  • @pavikani Indians are actually the most intelligent people on the planet, which is why so many go into medicane. One day they will be a super power.

  • @emmyjo720 Oh, make me puke, would ya?

  • @SOLFEACE Anti-semitism is weakness.

  • Comment removed

  • @SOLFEACE I'm not jewish. Also, there is no such thing as race. Come! Join us in the 21st century.

  • @emmyjo720 what you just said is kinda racist... :/

  • @pavikani The computer you're using and the softwares that are allowing you to pull your myths out of your ass about Indians are created by Indian scientists... :-\ oh yea, just FYI... basically everything related to information technology you're using right now is created and maintained by India brains... :-\

  • cenk uygur looks like the gotti boy's pervert uncle.

  • I like Jindal, but his speaking skills are terrible. It sounds as if he's reading to a group of preschoolers before nap-time.

  • That is the case will all Indians. Indians are taught from their childhood that parents are GOD! Respecting them is one thing but GOD?

  • people came with food & rescue gear and the government army did not let them into the city. also people were not allowed out of the city. when the busses came, and few of them, only the rich were allowed on the busses as they were quickly filled up.

  • Let's thank bush.

  • What would have happened if his daddy had missed a payment?

  • RECLAIMATION.

  • Some other douche would take his place.

  • I've seen 12 year olds that could deliver better speeches than jindal

  • I have seen 5 year olds with more sense & speaking ability than Bush Jr.

  • Bobby: Lemme tell ya a story...

    Cenk:  Oh great

    LMAO!!! I love Cenk

  • Stay hot GOP. Stay hot.

  • lousiana is doing better in growth than the american average since he took office . FACT

  • @brdmakan Sounds like FICTION to me, because Louisiana is the poorest State of the Union. Along with the most unhealthy. Jindal hasn't done shit and he fucked up on Katrina, now he's blaming everyone but himself.

  • @SexSteakSoda WRONG, in fact Louisiana is one of the few states that added jobs since the recession . Only because of strict fiscal conservatism.

  • @brdmakan Because they added a few rough neck and fishing jobs doesn't mean shit. Louisiana has one of the lowest median household incomes in the United States. In fact 7 out of the 10 poorest States in the USA are Southern Conservative States. While 8 out of the 10 wealthiest States have a majority of Democratic voters and politicians (they were blue states in the 08 election). This is according to Forbes, CNBC and CNN Money. Do some research, fool.

  • @SexSteakSoda I only said that its outperforming the average. Historically some states are poorer than the others . "In December, Louisiana was the only state in the nation besides the District of Columbia, according to the national press release, that added employment over the month," said Patty Granier with the Louisiana Workforce Commission.

  • @SexSteakSoda

    you do know that Jindal was not Govenor when Katrina hit.

  • I'll tear his head off

  • omg.....i f'ing hate bobby jendial even thought i live in louisiana....:)

  • Maybe if they had a background music and they kept changing the background maybe... just maybe the lameness of the speech would go down a little.

  • I'm mesmerized by his tie... it looks like a candy cane >_>

  • He sounds so condescending. Like he's Julie Andrews reading Mother Goose lullabies to a toddler.

  • It's like he's reading to the elderly, who are hard at hearing. Oh the republicans need to unfreeze Lincoln if they want a shot at 2012

  • As an Indian, I must say that Bobby Jindal seriously needs to work on his speeches.

  • funny to hear an ugly indian talk like a southern belle!

  • It's not the accent that bothers me so much as how creepy and fake he looks when he talks.

  • could you do me a favor?

    say: "bobby jindal"

    pause for a moment and then

    say: "Ass!" (very loud!)

    repeat this 5 times to enjoy the full pleasure!

  • Comment removed

  • dude.. you make fun of him.. and you don't make any sense in your talks at all either.. figure that..

  • Maybe his problems come from his mother being 44 1/2 MONTHS pregnant with him.

  • I love this video clip.. Bobby Jindal.. What a hoot, I mean I laughed so hard while watching this clip. My thanks to TYT..

  • Who the hell wrote this speech for him? Jeez that was terrible!! ROFL

  • slumdog millionaire is a terrible speaker.

    this WAS the guy they had all their hope's on?

  • We don't need to monitor natural disasters. They'll monitor themselves.

  • This is the problem with his party....they don't WANT to ever work, just always wanting to be on tv like a slut on boogie nights.

  • This guy is pathetic. He's trying to place him on the same pedestal with Obama and his family. It's just pathetic. Obama's family, including his white mother, raised him in a nice home with great values. His mother actually spent her life portraying what she believed in and those values. This dude shouldn't be on tv rattling on about his Indian family coming to America but down there in LA working to rebuild a destroyed city.

  • It's not every year, not even every five years, that New Orleans is destroyed by a hurricane. It's almost like every 20 years that something like Katrina would happen. The part that destroyed the city wasn't the hurricane because it wasn't a direct hit but it was the bureacracy of the previous administration. Jindal need to worry about LA's poor economy instead of showing his curry ass all over tv making himself out to be the biggest jackass down south. By the way, I'm sick of high taxes too.

  • So they should not rebuild? Just sit and watch?? Those people in Oklahoma and other places that get their house ripped apart by hurricanes don't rebuild even though they know there's the likely possibility of it being torn down again?

  • The problem wasn't that the government was too small. It could have been a lot smaller and got the job done. The problem was that it was deployed poorly.

  • He looks like an Indian Mr. Rogers.

  • @redbonegal Hee hee! He looks like an Indian Jimmy Carter, too!

  • @redbonegal Yes YES and YeS!! Mr Rogers For sure...Kind of Creepy...lol

  • @redbonegal He sounds like Mr. Rogers too, all he needs is the ugly cardigan sweater.

  • Story time with Uncle Jindal!

  • I love it when I hear that government is the problem from people IN the government,

    Can you imagine if a cop said cops are the problem or a doctor saying doctors are the problem?

  • NO !!! what bush have done was a dictatorship !!! but i guess you are so blinded by your own self righteousness about your republican party. that you dont even see the dirty and damages your party have done during these last 8 years. trying to dictate our friends into going into war. i see you have the normal traits of a repubican. you can't see the truth and blame others for the problems that you guy have done. wake up !!!

  • unelmitchel,..once again...I am neither a Republican nor a Democrat. I am an Independent. Paulson's power given by Bush and Congress have paved the way for the Fed Gov't to grow and grab power. The framers of America know that this is possible and therefore said that The FED gov;t should be limited...And Reagan have mentioned this in his First inaugural speech.

  • Unlike the Fuhrer, Reagan said that government is the problem not the solution. The States created the FED government , not the other way around. So why does the FED gov't dictates the States and the people?

  • Why does Jindal sound like he's reading a bedtime story to a 4 year old?

  • You never thought that the lense, or just under it there is a telepromter? Calling Obama "Fuhrer" is not only horrible, it ought to be illegal. Comparing the one person amongst the candidates of the presidential election who actually could bring the world tougher - with the one who was so close to its destruction - is fucking insane!

  • Once it becomes illegal that will clearly show He is my Fuhrer...and the ones arresting me are the Gestapo or the SS. Since when have you seen a dictator telling Congress what to do, give a deadline for a bill? I thought the branches of government are checks and balances , and not Camaraderie. This Chicago Mobster type politics should stop.

  • Sounds like the brain of a hockey puck ...inert!

  • sanningos,.. He got his own Youth brigade, his own media and propaganda machine, his Czars,..his goons and mob ..(ACORN -Federally funded), Black Panthers (like the SS)...he dictates COngress and Senate, force us to just swallow his Socialized health care...and his Gestapo (under Farrakhan)..the heil!! the Fuhrer !!

  • Do we want to play this game about Idiots with speech mistakes like George bush?

  • The Fuhrer said there are 60 US States...SEarch Obama Gaffes and look how idiotic are his speeches compared to Bush.

  • Jindal was using a teleprompter during that speech

  • I couldn't even listen to 5 minutes of his speech, let alone the whole thing. After listening to the first few minutes, I decided to stop viewing it.

  • Is this his fucking Mr. Rogers impression? What a friggin' dork.

  • Anna Kasparian has a vagina, this is true. However, the Young Turks HAVE criticized some decisions made by The President. It just so happens that THIS president is more likable than the previous.
