  • I wish it was that way for where *I* live. The youth in the Netherland is disgustingly right-wing, and already we've had over a decade of increasingly right-wing rulership. :/

  • FOLLOWS ARE THE REAL UNEMPLOYMENT AND UNDEREMPLOYMENT

    THE U-6 NUMBER

    BUSINESS IS WORLD WIDE, AS WELL AS MONEY.

    MONEY GOES TO THE PLACES IT WORKS MOST EFFECTIVELY AND PROFITABLY.

    CANT POISON YOUR NATION FOR PROFITS, BUT CANT DESTROY JOBS EITHER.

    MUST FIND A BALANCE IN CENTER.

    GEE

    THOSE NUMBERS TANKED WITH DEMOCRAT CONTROL HOUSE, SENATE, PRESIDENT.

    DEMOCRATS WERE IN CONTROL WAY BEYOND THEIR NUMBERS THANKS TO RINOs LIKE SNOWE, COLLINS SPECTOR AND SO MANY OTHERS

  • The complete list of the 21 Democrats who opposed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 includes Senators: - Hill and Sparkman of Alabama - Fulbright and McClellan of Arkansas - Holland and Smathers of Florida - Russell and Talmadge of Georgia - Ellender and Long of Louisiana - Eastland and Stennis of Mississippi - Ervin and Jordan of North Carolina - Johnston and Thurmond of South Carolina - Gore Sr. and Walters of Tennessee - H. Byrd and Robertson of Virginia - R. Byrd of West Virginia
  • @AbitaVets They were " Dixie-Crats ". You really are an idiot, aren't you. You should be thanking the racism of the South because without them your GOP wouldn't have ground to stand on. I do remember that the " Civil Rights Act " was also a Democratic policy signed into law by Lyndon B. Johnson. The South, which was predominately " Democrat " quickly became " Republican " because they knew that the GOP would stand for the southern bigots and the BS that they believe. You're a sad person.

  • Man... I dont care if you are democrat or not... this guy is such a pathological lair...

    its pathetic.

  • I MUST APOLOGIZE TO ALL FOR THE MULTIPLE POSTS, I DO NOT INTEND TO SPAM THIS PAGE,

    I WISH TO THANK THE YOUNG TURKS FOR HOSTING MY VIEWPOINTS, AS OTHERS ARE NOT STRONG ENOUGH IN THEIR BELIEFS TO TRULY HOST FREE SPEECH.

    MY PAGE IS OPEN FOR ALL, TO COMMENT AS THEY WISH.

    INTELLIGENT COMMENTS PREFERRED, BUT ALL ARE ACCEPTED.

    THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME,

    THE ONE ASSET THAT CANNOT BE REPLENISHED

  • IT MAY BE(MAY TO BE EMPHASIZED)FAIR CALLING IT AN OBAMA ECONOMY, THIS FAILURE WE SEE.

    AS SENATOR, SEN.OBAMA HE VOTED FOR MOST OF THE SPENDING AND DEFICIT THAT HE NOW COMPLAINS OF.

    HOW HE DOES NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT, I DO NOT KNOW.

    WELL

    I GUESS THE BUCK STOPS SOMEWHERE ELSE.

    TRUMAN  ROLLS OVER IN HIS GRAVE

    JFK, THE ANTICOMMUNIST FREE MARKET DEMOCRAT WOULD NOT RECOGNIZE HIS PARTY.

    THE PRESIDENT HAS NO SPENDING POWERS.

    THE PURSE STRINGS ARE HELD BE CONGRESS, THE PRES CAN ONLY SUGGEST SPENDING.

    Dem's deserve more time

    THE DEMS HAVE HAD TOTAL CONTROL FOR 4 YEARS NOT COUNTING MAJORITIES FOR THE YEARS BEFORE THAT WITH SUCH RINOs AS COLLINS, SNOWE ETC.

    THE DEMS HAVE HAD FISCAL POWER FOR YEARS.

    THE GROWTH OF DEFICIT, IT IS COINCIDENT WITH THE FILIBUSTER PROOF MAJORITY HELD BY DEMOCRATS.

    IF YOU GROW A BRAIN LET ME KNOW

    I RESPECT YOU

    YOU ARE ONLY TRYING TO FUCK YOUR PARTNER, NOT ME AND THE ECONOMIC FUTURE OF THE UNITED STATES.

    Dem's deserve more time

    PLEASE EXPLAIN AWAY THE BANKRUPCY OF CALIFORNIA, NEW YORK, BY IDIOT LIBERAL DEMS.

  • Wait a minute. WHAT kind tidal wave is coming now? Here's a hint:

    I can see November from my house!

  • @QuartuvLarry you can? I didn't think that they had windows in padded rooms. Vote Democrat!

  • @nomadiam75 Say b-bye to those democrat seats! We are going to crush the dreams of Obama and his mindless supporters! We are going to take away the free hand-outs you never deserved! We are going to arm against those thieves amongst you who delusionally think you some else DOES owe you free hand-outs! We will empower the wealth-MAKERS, and put the wealth-TAKERS back in their place!

    Say b-bye to those democrat seats! B-bye! B-bye! Only useful people allowed!

  • @QuartuvLarry Hehe! You're so funny! You believe yourself to be a Soldier who fights the Good fight. :) That's laughable. Ques: After you empower the Wealthiest, will you go back to your place, or will you remain at your mother's house? She really wants your dumb ass to leave. The Tea-Party is absolute fallacy. Your arguments only make sense to people who do not know better. The GOP has nothing but Cowards within it's Party, and spoiled brats who cling on to Their bogus policies.

  • It makes me smile when you say that Obama supporters are mindless. :) You really have know idea of how insanely bitter, spoiled and inaccurate that you are, do you? Good fortune to you though, brother. May you reap all that you sow. Be well. The American People before Party! That's something that the Tea-Bag, self proclaimed Bush Bot's know little about; how to be a true Patriot.

  • @nomadiam75 I may be funny, but you're just fuckin stupid. It's simple math: You don't MULTIPLY wealth by DIVIDING wealth! Simple enough for the dumbest economist...but I can tell you're not going to even be THAT smart.

  • @QuartuvLarry Heh, perhaps you're right. You don't multiply wealth by dividing it, right. This was your deepest thought on this. So what you're saying is that We should put all of Our eggs in one nest, correct? Hehe! You truly are a little boy, aren't you. All of Our Country's Brightest economist AGREES with the Pres.. You're just a little boy who lives at home with his parents.) A Home Schooled dip-shit who has no people skills.

  • You can't put all of your Eggs in one nest, little boy. That is a sure fire way to fail. Hence, the GOP. Their Policy's are failures. Their relationship with Wall Street has turned from Well Intentioned Capitalism( if there's such a thing ) in to Fascist Criminal action against the American People. Too Big To Fail, is BS. Simple math, huh. That must have been something else that you failed as a child.

  • Now, you've failed at being a Decent American. Guess what, Chicken Little. Here come the Democrats! The spoiled elites that you worship have no desire to make the Country better as a whole, and the American People will not stand for this anymore. Fire the GOP! Fire the Bogus Tea Party! Fire the Blue Dog Dem's! They are Traitors to the American Dream. How's that for repetition? :)-o-wait People before Profit!

  • @nomadiam75 Oh, I got people skills. But the likes of you just aren't worth their use. Because you're an idiot, of course. You attach a thing like those too-big-to-fail businesses to me as if I actually stood for that cronyist non-capitalism. I don't, but you can't comprehend that I don't. That makes you dumb. The other thing that makes you an raving imbecile is that you can't seem to define the American Dream...unless it absolutely has free hand-out socialism attached as a moronic caveat.

  • Comment removed

  • The " American Dream ". Well that's a Ques. of perception. It's defined by the Individual, but things have to be fair within Our Country's laws so that everyone has a fair chance.Your perspective is " Let's keep the Laws stacked for the Wealthiest Among Us, so They can continue to fleece the American People ". The Majority is what matters most. If We, the Majority, cannot afford the American Dream, then given time no one will be able too. You know, simple Economics. :) People before Profit!

  • @nomadiam75 That's what you don't understand! You don't comprehend the fundamental difference between equal opportunity as opposed to equal outcome. There deserves to be no such thing as equal outcome. You take risks and you reap the consequences; NOBODY is obliged to bail you out!

    Democrats had ENOUGH time, with NO obstruction to the balance of power weighed in their favor these past 2 years. But it's like I keep having to remind you, that you're just too stupid to learn from your mistakes

  • @QuartuvLarry I agree that No One deserves to be bailed out. And yet, you are trying to elect people in office who would carry forward the GW Tax Cuts ( which costs 700 bil. BTW of borrowed money from Communist China ), and Bank Bailouts. You still don't have any solutions to any problems, just like the Corrupt GOP. You only criticize, and then pretend that the GOP are righteous within Their corrupt policy's.

  • You still make no sense at ALL, Larry. Except to those who are guided in their lives by fear, and prone to cowardice. Cowards like you have always tried to hold up progress, and you and your kind will fail once again. You are the Minority in this Country, and you're shrinking even smaller because braver American's are fed up with GOP Chicken-hawks like you.

  • " Democrats had enough time without GOP obstruction ". :) Are you serious? The GOP has done NOTHING but hold up the Senate, period. It took the BS GW Admin. 8yrs. to mess Our Country up. The Dem's deserve more time because things are getting better everyday, brother. You just refuse to see it because you are a HUGE Tit baby.

  • VOTE Democrat! They are the only Politicians that We have who are trying to do the Majority's work. Let all of the Minority GOP Whiners just simply fade away. People before Profit!

  • @nomadiam75 Yeah. I am serious. And the truth is that the GOP could do NOTHING to hold up the Senate, because they've been in the minority for the past 2 years and COULD NOT obstruct JACK! SHIT! And what did a democrat majority with an unchecked balance of power in their favor do? JACK! SHIT! ...Except maybe bitch at thin air. (which only makes them look MORE stupid)

    So given the fact that I've already TAUGHT you this very simple fact, you might as well just quit with the lies, Bagdad Bob.

  • @QuartuvLarry The Minority of the Senate has distracted and even flat out lied about ALL debates to place the American People in a panicked frenzy on the issues of Our Country's business. The GOP has caused only confusion and anger in the American People for their selfish political agenda. Either you're just so mad that you're blind to this truth of what the GOP has done. Or, you just don't care about what's right or wrong for Our Country. You just want to see the GOP brand name in office. Tool!

  • @nomadiam75 You can't put all of your Eggs in one nest, little boy DAMN FINE ARGUMENT AGAINST CENTRAL PLANNING THE GOVERNMENT PROPOSED BY DEMOCRATS, AND THE PROGRESSIVES HIDING WITHIN THE LEADERSHIP OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY PROPOSE SUCH BAD IDEAS JUST WHAT PART OF: YOUR IDEAS BANKRUPTED CALIFORNIA AND NEW YORK STATE DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND. BANKRUPTCY IS FAILURE. PERIOD FEW IF ANY CONSERVATIVES WERE A PART OF THOSE FAILURES. NOW YOU WISH TO BRING SUCH ECONOMIC FAILURES TO A NATIONAL LEVEL? FOOL
  • @AbitaVets PWNED THAT BITCH!

  • @AbitaVets Shhh! You talk Way Too loud! You're hurting my ears with all that yelling.:) You have no idea of what you speak of. Hehe! Using CAPS doesn't make you any closer to being right within your hateful Ideology, but I commend you for trying. VOTE DEMOCRAT THIS NOVEMBER 2ND! There, was that loud enough for ya'? ( Wink, wink ) GOP Owned Tea Bagger's have been duped by the Dick Army, GW Bush-Bots. The Dem's deserve more time to correct the Fake GOP's fowl ups. People before Profit!

  • @nomadiam75 SORRY MOST SENSITIVE, AND STUPID ONE, MY CAPS LOCK OFFENDS, AWWWWW I HAVE A MILITARY EYE INJURY, AS YET REPAIRED. Tea Bagger's FOOL, IF YOU ARE PLACING GONADS IN YOUR MOUTH, THE ODDS ARE GOOD THAT YOU ARE A LIBERAL.

  • @AbitaVets Thanks for the apology.:) I'm glad to know that you respect people of different orientation. It probably means a lot to , Quartuvlarry. :) It's funny that you blame Liberals for all of the Woes that We face as a nation, seeing as how the GOP has been guilty for Most of the Policy making this past decade. Plus, the small minority They have is guilty of obstruction, ONLY, in the Senate, But hey, like I said before; It's your lie and you're free to believe and tell it.

  • The GOP Fascists are wrong for Our Country. Their Policy's are aimed at serving only the Wealthy. How can you support GW BUSH Tax Cuts which is just borrowed money from China? Are you in favor of Communism, liike most Neo-Con's are? How can you support the GOP Policy of raising the Retirement age to 70? How can you place so much of your faith in the Corrupt GOP and BS Tea Party Candidates? The GOP is not for American's. They are for themselves and the RICH that They serve. Nothing more.

  • How can you accept GOP and Tea Party Candidates accepting Chamber of Commerce funding for Their campaign races as being good for American politics? Do you prefer the Country being ran by FOREIGN influence, or We the People? The GOP attracts only the Biggest Cowards in Our society to Their calling. Guess what? You and your kind are failing. Even with all of the FOREIGN Money flowing in. You guys are the Shrinking Minority because Better Americans are wising up to GOP hypocrisy.

  • Be well, American Brother. America is getting better everyday. VOTE Democrat this Nov.2nd! People before Profit!

  • @nomadiam75

    , seeing as how the GOP has been guilty for Most of the Policy making this past decade

    OK SURE THE BEGINNING OF THE DECADE THERE WAS SOME INPUT FROM REPUBLICANS WHO LEANED CONSERVATIVE, THEN WHEN THE LIBERAL WING OF THE REPUBLICANS, THE SNOWEs, COLLINSs AND OTHER RINOS VOTED DEMOCRAT, DEMS HELD DE-FACTO MAJORITY,

    THEN NOTICE THE TREND

    AFTER A FULL FILIBUSTERER PROOF MAJORITY,

    DEFICIT SPENDING FOR YEARS TO COME.

    THEN WHEN WE CONSIDER FRANK.WATERS IGNORING AUDITORS ION FANNIE/FRED

  • @AbitaVets There is NO such thing as a " Filibuster Proof Majority ", American brother. It's kind of funny that you think that though. You really were duped by the corrupt GOP. I don't blame you for being taken advantage of. The GOP has done nothing but misdirect and lie about the Presidents policy's. The Country has seen more job growth within the past ten months than what We saw in 8yrs under GW. I'm sure that the GOP will take credit for it though. You should open your eyes friend. Peace.

  • @nomadiam75

    GEE

    There is NO such thing as a " Filibuster Proof Majority

    YEP YOU ARE RIGHT

    IT TAKES A LOYAL OPPOSITION WITH THE STONES TO ACTUALLY FILLIBUSTER.

    YESTERDAYS REPUBLICANS LACK THE STONES(TODAYS REPUBLICANS MAY BE DIFFERENT, WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES)

    AS A SENATOR CLEARLY MITCH MCONNLLE IS NOT THOSE FAMOUS DEMOCRATS THAT COULD AND WOULD FILLIBUSTER LIKE

    OH... AL GORE sr. WHO FILIBUSTERED THE CIVIL RIGHTS ACTS

    he Country has seen more job growth, THAT SIR, IS BULLSHIT

  • @AbitaVets I don't see it as being necessary; arguing with an idiot like you, that is. You have no idea what you speak of. You, and many other bone heads, are simply put.. Cowards and Traitors to the American Way of life. I'm sure that you're even stupid enough to feel a sense of pride after the elections. Ques. If you can't see well enough to read what you type, seeing as to how you have to use CAPS on all of your posts. How then can you read the posts that I leave you? You're a Tool. Be well.

  • @nomadiam75

    WOW

    The Country has seen more job growth within the past ten months than what We saw in 8yrs under GW. I'm sure that the GOP will take credit for it though. You should open your eyes friend

    WHAT FANTASY WORLD ARE YOU WALKING IN?

    JOB NUMBERS ALTERED BY RE HIRING/TRAINING OF CENSUS WORKERS. BAD JOKE

    CHECK THE U-6 NUMBERS OF REAL UNEMPLOYMENT FRIEND(17% AVERAGE AND 26% IN SOME DEMOCRAT CONTROLLED/RUN AREAS) AND THE GROWTH OF IT AS DEMOCRATS TOOK WHOLE AND COMPLETE CONTROL.

  • @nomadiam75 Plus, the small minority They have is guilty of obstruction, ONLY, in the Senate, But hey, like I said before; It's your lie and you're free to believe and tell it.

    HOW CAN ANY POWER BE HELD BY CONSERVATIVES,

    WHEN THE "CONSERVATIVE" PARTY NOT COULD NOT STOP ANY OF THE AGENDA,

    DUE TO A FULL FILIBUSTER PROOF MAJORITY.

    TO EVEN BLAME REPUBLICANS FOR ANY OF THE AGENDA FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS IS INSANE,

    TO HOLD CONSERVATIVES RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY OF THE SPENDING OF THE LAST 5... INSANE

  • @AbitaVets The obstructionist GOP of the day has done nothing but hold up progress. They have played politics with the American People, and nothing more. You support NOTHING. That's your position that you identify with. It's sad. The GOP would have fallen again, if not for the bil.'s of Dollars received from the corrupt Chamber of Commerce. You obviously don't understand the way the Senate works. It's all about the " Brand Name " for folks like you. You should pay better attention, brother.

  • The GOP used people like you, and once again you fell for it. Hey, maybe instead of being a good Republican, you should try being a Good American first. There is one good thing may come out of the election that just took place though. The GOP that duped Americans like you will now Have to take a part in decisions made in Our Country's business. They can no longer hide and blame Dem's for anything because now They have the House majority. Let's see what They do.

  • I already know the answer to this one. Do you? You and I would probably disagree on most issues, but that's a good thing. It's what keeps Us honest as well as in the Center of the Ideological spectrum. The GOP radical Right is foolish and flat out wrong for Our Country. You will be disappointed by the GOP once again because the Republican's do not care about the Country as a whole. They care only about the bottom line profits for the fewest, richest among us.

  • Eventually, you and other GOP supporters will have to open your eyes. " Without Love at the Center, ALL is of Vanity and Vexation ". We, as a Proud People, must find Our way back to the Center if We want to see real change. Be well. People before Profit!

  • @nomadiam75

    LOOK FOR 35 YEARS....

    I WATCHED INDUSTRY RUN FROM DEMOCRAT CONTROLLED/RUN CITIES TO BRING THEIR JOBS 70 MILES OUT OF THE CITY TO MY SMALL TOWN.

    WE ARE GOING TO DO FOR YOU THE DEMOCRATS TOLD THEIR PEOPLE...

    TAXED JOBS AWAY.

    NO JOBS.... NO HOPE....

    WELL,.... SCREW THE PEOPLE WHO VOTED FOR DEMOCRATS, THAT RAN THEIR JOBS TO MY AREA.

    WE NOW HAVE THE MONEY IN OUR POCKETS, THAT USED TO BE IN THE DEMOCRAT CITY.

    ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES

    WE VOTE CONSERVATIVE HERE, HAVE JOBS.

  • @AbitaVets You're so full of shit. My hope is that you reap exactly what you sow. You deserve that much at least. You vote Conservative because that's all you know. There's one thing that I've come to learn in my years too. The less educated a society is, the more Conservatives there will be within it. The GOP knows this, and they count on stupidity to get them elected. Great job! You're just the type of gullible person the GOP hopes for.

  • Why do you think The GOP always wants to cut Education first? I know why. So more people like you will be dumb enough to believe in Their lies. All's They have to do to get your vote is say " Be Afraid! Be Very Afraid! " -O- Ya', And Tax Cuts ". The GOP laughs at people like you for being so gullible, and quite frankly so does everyone else. Be a better American. Cheers! People before Profit!

  • @nomadiam75 Considering most of the Democratic party is made up of dumb, uneducated welfare recipients, I think it's fair to say the Democrats are the dumber of the two parties. No education funding cuts are necessary to prove the stupidity of the Democratic party. You really are a retarded moron.

  • @meccaturbo actually, since you are ignorant, I will educate you. the majority of people on welfare do not vote, do not care about politics and are too busy trying to survive. for the sake of people like you, you had better hope that poor people do not start to vote in larger numbers or this country will never see conservatives in power again

  • @BeingNobody1956 Actually, you are the ignorant one. I lived in Appalachia, amongst welfare recipients, and most of the ones where I lived do indeed vote. True to your fucked up liberal form, you're an arrogant fool who thinks he has all the answers to everything. Go do some more research before you make idiotic comments, you dumb douchebag.

  • @meccaturbo so because you lived in one area where they vote you think that defines all poor people? I have lived in more than one small area of the country. I have traveled and lived in many communities all over the country and I still say that you are wrong. most people on welfare over the whole country are not involved in politics. most have probably never voted. i am sure someone with your limited vocabulary is very familiary with all the flavours and varieties of douchebags.

  • @BeingNobody1956 I didn't say I have ONLY lived in one area, you dumb diddler. If anyone has a limited vocabulary and command of the English language, it's you....so limited in fact that you can not grasp the concept that if someone cites a place they have lived, it does not infer that it's the ONLY place they've lived. Your "expert analysis" of the situation clearly shows just what a petulant narrow minded fool you really are.

  • Liberals are like a virus... they infect and destroy everything in their path.

    This ass hole is such a moron.

  • @youngbono18 Hehe! You're confused. You have " Liberal " mixed up with " Neo-Con ". It's alright. It's a common mistake made by avid FIX viewers. You should try CNN or NBC to get your news. They actually deliver something that's " Fair and Balanced ". People before Profit!

  • @nomadiam75

    you are kidding right? I hope so, or you only further prove my point.

    FOX, NBC, CNN and ESPECIALLY MSNBC are all bias bullshit stations.

    I am a Libertarian you idiot, the the farthest thing possible from a Neocon.

  • @youngbono18 Is this world all about you? I simply said " Neo-Con " and you took it to heart. You're a Libertarian. Isn't that just fancy talk, for Bull Shit Party? Yeah, me thinks so. You're a Tea-Party supporter, right. If so, then you're just another distracted sheep who has been duped by the GOP owned movement. You and your simple minded Tools are a part of the problem, but your ego and pride makes you blind. Good fortune to you though. I pray that you and your Party gets what you deserve.

  • @nomadiam75

    funny how you know nothing about who or what I support, but you make stuff up just so you can have an arguing point.

    Typical liberal... when you have no basis, you tell yourself a lie, make yourself believe it, then pretend that those who oppose you said it.

    you truly are a piece of trash.

  • @youngbono18 OK, I'll bite. What do you support? Do you support the wealthiest in Our Country getting all of the tax breaks? Do you support Our Country's jobs being sent to Communist Countries? Do you think that the 14th amendment should be changed? Come on, tell all of the " Typical Liberals " where you stand on issues. Or, will you just be like the " Typical BS Tea Bagger ", and avoid the Ques. because you have no idea of what you are doing? Please, indulge us all.

  • @nomadiam75

    No, I will debate any topic and discuss any issue. We may be more alike on some issues than you think.

    I support tax breaks for all. Most taxes imposed on us are Unconstitutional to begin with. Now obviously there must be some, but not to the degree that we are being strained with now.

    NO, I am a strong advocate of national sovereignty. Our country should be 100% self reliant, and our jobs should not be shipped over seas so that billionaires can make a few billion more.

  • @nomadiam75

    On the issue of the 14th amendment, you have to look at the root of the problem. If the incompetent, bloated, and corrupt liberals AND REPUBLICANS in power would actually secure our borders and enforce or laws, then there would be no need for repeal of anything. But I also am a STRONG support of the states rights to make individuals laws, such power being granted by the Constitution... but that can be debated more.

    See, am I really that unreasonable? I only want to defend the USA

  • @youngbono18 You and I could find common ground. No, you're not unreasonable at all. Thanks for your Honest reply. It's refreshing actually. I agree with you. The question then becomes, How do We American's fix the problem? Do we vote " Tea Party Candidates ", who are pretty much a Radical form of GOP who( majority speaking ) don't know a damn thing about anything?

  • Do we elect more " Republican's " who are obvious Slaves to Wall Str. and is only out to serve their preservation of status and wealth? Or, do we continue to Push the will of the Majority of this Country who is looking for Real Change? Granted, I know that Democrats are just as guilty as the GOP on some issues. However, they are the only politicians that I see attempting to do the People's work.

  • So, American Brother, tell me what you think. I know that you are a fan of " Ron Paul ". I like him too, but supporting Him is not going to do anything for the elections this Nov.. The Tea-Party candidates, for the most part, are horrible. They're nothing like Ron Paul, friend. I wish that They were, but it's just not the case. Be well.

  • @nomadiam75

    There are a few within the tea party who are good enough, but obviously there are plenty of simply see this as an opportunity to ride the wave of Conservative enthusiasm back into power and back to games as usual.

    We fix America by going back to its core principles. TRUE Equality... non of this hate crime bullshit, fiscal conservatism, an anti intervention foreign policy.

    Rein in our Empire and focus on homeland security and restoring our financial standing.

  • @youngbono18 Well said, brother. Be well. People before Profit!

  • @nomadiam75

    However, neither the GOP or the Democrats are fit to lead our country. Both have fallen prey to higher powers, money, corruption ect.

    Obama is a God awefull president, as was George W Bush.

    The ONLY chance our country has is to return to polices of responsibility and unbiased equality.

    The founders new what they were doing... we need to look to their words and warnings to find a path for our country.

    Liberalism/socialism is wrong.

    The GOP are wrong.

    WE THE PEOPLE are right.

  • over one year later, is his commentary still accurate?

  • It doesn't seem like it.

  • no your ignorance is the disease

    and by the way all the facist parties in history have been conservative

    and stalin dos'nt count

  • to be fair, stalin took the socialist/communist ideal and perverted it until it was basically fascist (he was literally a dictator, yeah?)

    so yeah, stalin --> fascist --> extreme right wing --> conservative. it's kind of funny how that worked out.

  • amen

    finally someone with a brain lol

    bless

  • Man listen, i don't know how the guy does it but most of the time he's right.

  • The Huffingandpuffington Post is not even a legitimate journalistic enterprise - it is exclusively a spin machine tool of the left based on the pattern set forth by Chairman Mao in his "Little Red Book".

    These are the same folks that advocated staying out of of WWII while Hitler and Stalin were busy sharing thier Polish feast - but the moment Hitler attacked the U.S.S.R., they became the strongest advocates for JOINING the war.

    The left reviles McCarthy only because he set them back 50 yrs

  • You right-wing americans are so laughably dumb.

  • @razedemon how very elitist of you.

  • @razedemon No, actually you are the dumb one. Classic libtard fool, that's you.

  • @razedemon Yup cuz the libtards have done so much to fix this country so far huh?

  • bush a conservative? thats funny

  • he's ore or less right, the majority of people are being swung to the left, as we move forward the religious right we'll begin to loose more and more influence despite their fanatical support of the GOP and they'll began to loose out from ground root financial support for the dems. I'm not saying wheter I'm for it or against it, that hardly matters, realistically that's the tide it seems.

  • HufPo is great. I'm happy to see Cenk getting on there as a blogger.

    Worthy of a read.

  • Has this guy ever done anything to deserve the freedom he was born into? He is just another liberal blowhard.

  • Was is the "anything" you speak of? He defends the constitution daily. He seeks the truth daily. He wants what is best for this country. If there is some sort of "thing" I need to do to deserve my freedom, let me know. Be specific. I have done a lot of things too. I don't know where you are going with this.

  • Have you?

  • I think so. Served 27 yrs in the military. Currently contractor training foreign soldiers so they can fight for their freedom against terrorist.. Reserve sheriff deputy. Past board member for Special Olympics. Life time Masonic Mason.

  • Sure you did. You should be very proud of yourself. Now run along and play soldier. You don't have time to argue or make a point with someone as insignificant as I.

  • jerichorost,

    You asked me and I told you. You are not insignificant. You're 20 yrs old and have your whole life ahead of you. As for playing soldier, it is not playing. My life and others may depend on knowledge, skill and sometimes plain luck.

    If men in the past hadn't been willing to fight for freedom we would have no freedom. I love America and pray God continues to bless us.

  • jerich: you don't have the stones to sneer at anyone who served 27 yrs in the military. It's like a high school dropout sneering at a PHD.

    Now run along and cruise some inernet porn before mommy calls you to dinner.

  • yeah and what did dick cheney

    or george w bush ever do to earn there freedom it was all handed to them on a silver platter so don't even go there pal

  • I hope you are right Cenk. I needed to hear this.

  • George Bush isn't a true conservative. He's a social conservative. The true conservatives are Ron Paul, Berry Goldwater, Milton Friedman, Ronald Reagan, the list goes on. We just need the social christian conservatives to get votes.

  • What the hell are you talking about?

    "liberals are retards most of the time, they are pro sins, pro whores, pro stds, pro drug use, etc,"

    Before you can have a valid opinion on something you have to first experience it first hand, so go sin with whores and take drug's you never know you might like it ; )

  • uh this guy is in no way an american hero. he's right about how all the young dumbfuck kids are becoming liberals though. it's a shame.

  • Liberals of the 18th century now known as Classical Liberals arose in opposition to govt interference in the economy via grants of monopoly and privilege that prevented markets from working. They were free market advocates and in those days they were liberators. We have come full circle where conservatives are giving huge subsidies to the private sector and massively interfering in the economy all the while defending free markets. To say the least they are vulnerable to attack on this issue.

  • Whether liberal or conservative, all politicians want is YOUR money.

    Who is this asshole anyway?

  • He's an American hero you jerk.

    Show some Patriotism

  • well being a Canadian, I don't have to worry about "American Heroes" :P

  • As dangerous as Al Qaida? are you referring to that little branch of the mujahedeen that Reagan funded through the 80s? the liberals are as dangerous as... extremist terrorist groups created by the conservatives?

  • A lot of modern conservatives, at least in my anecdotal experience, seem to think that somehow the problems with the modern country have nothing to do with the our 40-year turn to the right. As if Bush isn't a 'real' conservative because he's increased govt police powers and govt size. Forgetting of course tax cuts, privatization of govt services, deregulation, and a foreign policy built on strong defense.

  • your an ass. After people relize the mistake of going too libral and relizing that being libral really only hurts this country by suppressing our freedoms and rights i hope that there will be another movement tward the RIGHT. Maybe after these libs get their heads out of thier asses but i doubt it. Libs are sitting at the top of information because libs own all the major news and NPR. Talk Radio, where its at, The TRUTH. Libralism is the future.. yeh and the future looks soo bright dosnt it...ah

  • Many people forget pursuit of happiness, which is basically the most important part.

  • Good riddance to the stupid neo-con republican perverted psychos

  • I see the death neo-conservativism and the rise of progressivism in the short term. After that, I think we could see a battle between more traditional libertarianism/conservativism and the New Left.

  • Bush/Cheney and NEOCONZ are not conservatives.

    Obama is more conservative than Bush or the REPIGZ.

    The only reason why the Media calls REPIGZ conservative is because of Religion.

  • None of this matters. America has jumped the shark and all of this is part of a downward spiral.

  • If there will be a wave of Liberals coming soon, would that mean groups like AIPAC would start losing some power? Would we start talking about the power of the Israeli lobby and the suffering of the Palestinian people? Only if that happens would there be a signal of change!!

  • Nothing can overwhelm what has happened ...

  • Watch the entire show at theyoungturks(.)com

  • We need a movement for the basic principles this county was founded on INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM. The liberal and conservative movement only proves to divide people and distract them from the real issues. We are all losing our freedoms.

  • A title wave of liberals? See, pot kills brain cell.

  • Uhhh no it doesn't. There has never been a single study to show that Marijuana causes the death of brain cells, but you know what does? Alcohol. Maybe you should go pound back another six back and keep working on that beer gut while you surf and make random pointless comments on political videos dumbass.

  • My bad, it just leads to paranoia, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, social withdrawal, and other mental health problems. It doesn't kill braincells. Keep on smokin. I don't drink.

  • Wow you've obviously done your research by reading a pamphlet you got in the mail from MADD. Idiot..

  • Mothers Against Drunk Driving has a pamphlet on pot? Aren't they just against drunk driving? I am a counselor at a youth treatment center, trust me, pot affects your brain negatively. I have around 65 teenagers to support that. Also, if I were an idiot I wouldn't be able to write this, in fact I would barely be able to talk, let alone type. Moron. See, I can call you a moron and it can apply because you can type, so your not an idiot, but you are notably stupid, so you are a moron.

  • Don't you mean "you're" an idiot? I'm sure as a youth counselor all those teens you meet are an accurate cross-section of what your average marijuana user is like right? Ignorance and stupidity in one package, with a side dish of decades-old prejudice perhaps? Maybe get your grammar and facts straight next time there.  People like you make me sick, goodbye.

  • i dont smoke pot, im well educated, middle class, and im a definite political liberal. im not uncommon either, despite what bill o'reilly thinks.

  • Education and intelligence are two very different things. The liberal "wave" comes from a country of people that don't need to struggle to survive and have forgotten what freedom is. Liberalism stems from the idea that people don't NEED to think or provide for themselves and the government should feed us, clothe us, give us housing, money, amenities, but at the cost of our freedom. Liberalism is just modern day slavery.

  • Liberalism stems from the idea of freedom. Conservatism stems from the idea of status quo.

    Freedom comes from choices, without a safety net you have no choice, if you live on the street in a trash can surviving on garbage you're not free.

    People often forget how much worse it was when there was no safety net. Go back a hundred years and watch the epidemic of orphans and then tell us liberalism is about laziness.

    Conservatives truly never have read a single page of political philosophy.

  • I know the definition of liberalism. Modern day liberalism is anything but liberal. Since when do Liberals maximize freedom? All they do is minimize responsibility and restrict freedom. Gun control, abortion, promoting illegal immigration, raising taxes, promoting promiscuity among teens, and brainwashing our children in our public schools is freedom? The men in the past who made this country great have nothing in common with modern day liberals.

  • Not to break you down, but honestly, just because you can look it up in a dictionary doesn't mean you understand it.

    Gun control works, gets less people kill, abortion is about a womans right to choose, sex-ed. works and nobody is promoting raising taxes it's just that the government cost money and Reagan and the Bushes are borrowing money and getting in debt.

    And what can be more American and more about freedom than free immigration, the US was founded on it.

  • dude, would you rather be kill by a hammer or a gun, that's right, think about it

  • I rather not be killed at all. And in that spirit, I rather he have a hammer, cause at least then I can run away.

    Gun control is about not letting mentally ill people, criminals and people who can handle a fire-arm not being allowed to have them. Just like you don't want a six year old running around with a gun you do not want someone with the same mental capacity as a six year old.

    And who does it really hurt to have a weeks waiting time for a gun?

  • gun control only keeps guns out of the hands of people who are not criminals.

  • Clearly you have no idea how gun control works.

    It's about showing that you're capable of handling a gun, mental and practical exercises. Like driving a car. Just like we shouldn't let people with mental deficiencies out on the road neither should they be allowed to have guns.

  • Why not have food control? Heart disease is the #1 killer in America. Make it so people have to get a background check on what they have eaten that week. That is just as silly as the idea that a gangbanger is gonna stand in line at the local Sportsman's Warehouse and wait for a background check to buy a gun. Gun control has been proven not to work, you could ban guns all together and crimes where guns are used would probably rise. Gun control is just control over people not crime.

  • Cause food, only hurt yourself. You can't eat someone else to death.

    It's not difficult to do what I'm asking for, just make it like a drivers license. Not everyone should be allowed to have a weapon, some people are just too crazy and too stupid. That is what gun control means.

    Criminals will always have weapons, but deranged lunatics will not, if we don't give it to them.

    Actually gun control works. Not to stop crime or murder, but to stop gun related deaths. Which is the point of it.

  • Then we have gun control in my country, let me ask you how many guns you own in your family? We have at least 5.

    I have no problem getting weapons because I'm not insane, a criminal or retarded.

    So I don't see why people are so against gun control, "Oh no, they took away Charlie Manson's weapon, those damn fascists". Why do you care if people with mental deficiencies and former criminals can't have weapons, does it affect you? Are you a lunatic or a former criminal?

  • It's true that the founding fathers and Lincoln would probobly only dream of the great things that the government does today, but that doesn't mean we should stop any progress like the Conservative ideology is promoting.

    Modern day liberalism is about building a societal structure where you are free to pursue your goals, where you are not doomed to a life of poverty just because your parents are poor.

    That's what the pursuit of happiness is about, it's in the constitution.

  • 70% is not too high. it was 90% & 95% back in the '40s/'50s & rich folk did just fine. you have to balance budgets. it's obvious that EVERYONE, cons & lib, in this country doesn't really want to cut spending all that much. the biggest expense in the DoD & the police state. who does that benefit the most? poor black males? please. look, rich folk don't like taxes? fine. get rid of the DoD, FBI, DEA, CIA, NSA, ATF, Homeland Security, etc etc. Get rid of ALL farm subsidies, corporate subsidies

  • Sadly, the new liberal wave will have jerks thaty co-opt it for nefarious purposes, creating a new consevative wave in years to come. The cycle continues...

  • More people Liberal on the net? I dont think it's as Black and White as for Liberal and Conservative. You still have people who are middle of the road or independant like myself. Actually the net is very politically incorrect which mainstream liberals are not noted for. People who claims to be liberals on the net shocking hold a lot of politically incorrect views and ive met some of them.

  • I will admit though mainstream liberals do dominate the blogosphere just as the Neocon right dominate talk radio.

  • in other words, people are being pushed to choose the other dark side this time.

  • Would you consider England, France, and Germany to be the dark side? It's about time the U.S. started following a system that has been proven to work by the developed nations in Europe.

  • I don't get it. we have a one party system of republicats, both are big government big spenders... there's nothing new coming to Washington.

  • I believe we need to return to a 90%+ marginal tax rate. That rate should be applied to a very high income level. Pick a number $10 million, $100 million.

    As a moral country we must make the statement that no one "earns" a billion dollars per year as the hedge fund managers have stolen this past year.

  • I totally disagree with that. Doctors, especially surgeons put in 10 or more years of their lives slaving away just to be qualified to get a high salary and rewarding position. If you give them a 90% tax rate, then they will be making just as much as someone flipping burgers. Who in the right mind would go in 300k+ in debt and 10 years of sweat and blood just to match a burger flipping salary?

    Progressive liberalism is good, but let's not become communists ok?

  • I don't think you understand how marginal tax rates work. We have a graduated tax system. Tax rates increase on income over set levels, not to all income.

    A marginal tax rate of 90% would only apply to income over say $10 million. A talented surgeon definitely can earn and deserve a few million dollars a year, and this would not be taxed at 90%. Only income OVER $10 million would be taxed at 90%.

    You and I do not disagree,

  • Well Ron Paul would be the one fund-raising exception on the Republican side.

  • Ron Paul wants to eliminate public education, eliminate income taxes, lower capital gains taxes, and add a flax sales tax of around 23%. If you understand economics, then you will know that this will cause our nation to become a feudalistic society where the poor continues to suffer while the rich continues to get richer.

    Sure, it definitely may help our corporations, but it won't help you when you're jobless and can't afford to buy any luxuries in life.

  • I'll believe it when I see it.

  • the future's bright, the future's ora..blue

  • Internet, the information revolution. By definition people searching the net are educating themselves. Is it surprising that the republicans aren't doing good in the digital world ? Don't think so.

    Disinformation only works when you control the media. Which is why net neutrality is so important.

  • dude you nailed it right on the head.

  • The people in charge are for big government and a controlled economy. This is both the Demoplicans and Republicrats.

  • There are flaws and a level of corruption in both parties, but to pretend that they're exactly the same is absurd.

  • You are absolutely correct.The war in Iraq continues,inflation is a problem,war with Iran is still on the table.Republican President and Democrat Congress.Ten years ago we invaded Yugoslavia to continue the growth of the Empire,devaluing the dollar(inflation)continued,bom­bing Iraq and seeking "regime change". Democrat President Republican Congress.

    The differences are marginal. The road to a totalitarian collectivist country is being paved by all of these folks.

  • liberal wave....can't tell by clinton

  • "A new Liberal movement has sprung up"

    Yup, practically everyone my age that I know is very Liberal.

  • Oh and also, fuck conservatives!

  • Too slow Brine49 :P
