  • YOU'RE A JEALOUS BUNCH OF DEAD BROKE HYPOCRITE LIBS...NOW AREN'T YA ?!..THERE'S NOT ONE OF YOU DEAD BROKE BASTARDS THAT WOULDN'T TRADE PLACES WITH ANY OF THE 4 IN A HEART BEAT !

  • no koch brotners money? Im surprised!

  • This is how the Republicans roll. Lies and deception. It's NOT grassroots if a bunch of rich Republicans create it. If they had their way this would be a nation of slaves, owned by rich corporations. Of course they oppose the unions. These are the same guys who would have fought the abolition of slavery back in the day. Rich scumbags trying to make the American people feel good about making a slave wage. Lying scumbags!

  • Riiiiiight ... and NO billionares EVER give money to Donk orgs, do they? *cough*Soros*cough*

  • It's interesting that you only covered the donations from when the group first started. American Crossroads has paid for tens of millions of dollars in ads as opposed to the ~$4MM you "analyzed." If you were intellectually honest, you would show the breakdown for the full amount instead of selectively looking at the $4MM.

  • @rickemnett sigh

  • im glad democrats call fox news a joke when they got people like this and john stewart handing them facts. this guy is biased. how bout we look into who funds the democrat campaigns ? I'm all for criticism of either party but these videos are JOKES.

  • The American people showed you Obama...now he runs off. Typical F U C K H E A D.....

  • typical liberals always want a hand out..Spread the wealth and not work for it.

  • Bush/Cheney never gave a plug nickle to the free market to choose. Every line item bill was intended to subvert freedom and take from the middleclass. In 2003 they rammed a bill through that allowed banks to leverage assets up to 40 times what that actually had in the banks by gambling with naked short selling derivatives that bankrupted america and half the world. When does being a dumbass like a republican ever a good thing.

  • Wow republicans sponsor ads for American Citizens for Prosperity. Moms for Motherhood, Supreme Court Justices for More Oil & Gas perks, and most republicans favorite Conservative Dicksuckers for More Corporation Jizz.

  • Cenk, this the information you should present when your on MSNBC. Americans need to know this information!!!

  • Who cares who funds the ads? Thanks to Citizens United, Amendment I applies to all. Quit your moaning.

  • Obama is just a stooge of George Soros..

  • Its hilarious hat Cenk is bashing the right for having rich donors. It is a well known fact that George Soros is funding media matters, moveon.org, planned parenthood, and a laundry list of other leftwing groups.

  • Cenk, stay healthy man! I hope you are mentoring several young hotshot reporters to bravely expose the lies. President Obama (I do like the guy & voted for him) and the media act like the school weaklings who have their lunch money stole by bullies everyday. They should stand up, push, shove, yell - do what ever it takes to expose the lies. Bullied people will never be popular, so they may as well toughen up and be right instead.

  • Dang...won't be going to golds gym any more either!

  • Trevor Rees-Jones was also the name of the bodyguard who was the sole survivor of the car crash that killed Princess Diana. Wierd.

  • Regressive Taxes - lower & middle classes pay higher % of income in taxes than the rich Sales Tax Property Tax Social Security Tax Liq Tax Gas Tax Cig Tax Electricity Tax LIcenses, tolls, fines, meters Registrations Natural Gas Tax Telephone Tax etc, etc, etc Progressive Tax - RIch pay higher % Income tax -- This is why most lower & middle income Americans pay 20-35% of their income in TOTAL TAXES whereas the rich, like Dcik Cheney, pay less than 8%. THIS MUST STOP!
  • I knew there was something wrong with Gold's Gym.

  • George Soros, yet another Jewish leftist, spent $24 million just trying to get Kerry to Defeat Bush!!!

    At least the GOP is being funded by Americans FOR America and not some leftist communist loving assholes.

  • @TheCockOFGod Either you are simple or not very smart, pick one. You dont see any difference giving direct campaign funding to candidate vs funding whole "grass roots" organization by few billionaires?

    Your being good cheerleader for "red team", bravo. Next time try using your brain little more and put your pom poms down, as a result maybe you can resist this urge to make these ridiculous comparisons.

  • @kortteli

    The only difference here is you absolve Soros of doing the same shit.

  • @TheCockOFGod Actually, Soros is listed as an atheist.

  • @VolatileReaction

    An atheist of Jewish heritage etc. Most Communist are Atheist. Soros plays lefty and influences a LOT in our country and lines his pockets in doing so.

  • @TheCockOFGod Is Soros not the entrepreneur who transitioned Hungary from Communism to Capitalism? Never mind that Kerry had 50m less in individual contributions then Bush. Never mind that Soros didn't donate that 24m to Kerry but to various 527 groups. Kind of odd that the Swift Boat Vets recieved 17,010,390 in donations but, that's no big deal right? That's just a single group. Do some research and stop regurgitating the bile that you sup from the teet of Limbaugh and Beck.

  • @TheCockOFGod Soros opposed the Commies in his native Hungary, bukkake breath.

  • @TheCockOFGod Soros has funded Solidarity in Poland which was the first non-communist union in Poland, Charter 77 in Czechoslovakia, as well as Andrei Sakharov who was a political dissident in the Soviet Union. The former Georgian prime minister Zourabichvili says that the Soros Foundation carried the revolution from communism. In fact, his Open Society Institute was created to help countries move away from communism.

  • You left out George Soros funding the Democrats ;-)

  • it comes from four billionares, 3 of them from Dallas, 2 of them oil money? Math fail?

  • @DrQuijano -- that is no math fail... who really is failing math?

  • Warren Buffett offered a Big Cash Payment to anyone who could show that the CEO of a major US Corporation was paying a higher % of his income in taxes than his Secretary was.

    Of course no one came forward.

    THIS NEEDS TO STOP!!

  • Most in the lower & middle classes, when you add up ALL taxes, are paying 20-35% of their income in taxes, while Dick Cheney pays less than 8% of his income in taxes.

    THIS NEEDS TO STOP!!

  • @DillonDee1 90% of taxes paid come from the rich, while 10% comes from the middle class and 0% comes from the poor. this needs to stop make the poor pay taxes stop living off the sweat off my back dirt bags, the rich pay 49.5% middle pay 12-20% while the poor pay 0 yet the poor soak up more tax money than any body

  • @awdy33 So the rich pay 49.5%, yet they have 99% of the money. So why do you think that's fair?

  • @BenjaminFranklin2u because as i said the rich already pay 90% of the taxes colected in america, and the middle class pay the other 10% the poor need to start paying their own way we(middle class and rich together) are sick and tired of carrying them on our backs. enough is enough get a job. and don't try and give me that bullshit about no jobs available or lack of education gets in the way. and i dont give a shit about single mothers in the gheto, if ya can't aford it keep your legs closed!

  • @awdy33 Rich people dont even pay a lot of taxes as it is, the middle class pays way more. Id bet poor people pay more in taxes than rich people do. The rich get way more welfare from the gov than the working class (middle and lower). The middle class will get fed up with paying the tab for rich people.

  • @bucnasty14 my numbers where wrong, acording to the irs 85% of taxes collected come from the rich while the middle pay 13.9% and the poor pay 1.1% that is how the tax burden breaks down now when you look at how the tax money is spent 87.6% is spent on programs that bennifit the poor while 12.4% is spent on every thing else including the debt how is this fair? the leaches who soak up the most pay next to nothing.

  • @awdy33 well duh, if were just counting dollars, then obviously the people with astronomically more money will pay more actual dollars. As a percentage of their income, middle class pays more by quite a bit. Upper and lower class pay about the same.

    those numbers are obviously wrong when the military budget is more than 13% If we count a percentage of taxes used by class, subsidies for the rich are on top. Yet we complain about the guy who got laid off getting 200$s a week that he paid for...

  • @awdy33 There is no job that can make you nearly as rich as the richest people are. You are a corporate shill, a fraud, and the more you talk, the stupider you look.

    So let's hear some more...

  • @BenjaminFranklin2u who are you to be passing judgment on ppl? for you to be calling me stupid without knowing a thing about me makes you pretty damn ignorant. who are you to be passing judgment on AMERICAN politics? being that your a socialist from a country built out of americas rejects, that makes your opinion completely worthless. when canada contributes more to the world than shity bacon and skunky beer then maybee you can talk.

  • @awdy33

    "who are you to be passing judgment on ppl?".... "your a socialist"...

    (I think you mean "You're")

    More STUPID, hypocritical nonsense,

    ....anymore?

  • @awdy33 The mere fact that you don't recognize Canada as being a major exporter or lumber/oil is only more proof of your stupidity. So please, keep talking.

  • @BenjaminFranklin2u damn near every country exports both, thats like saying your the smartest kid with down syndrome.

  • Why can't the republicans have 4 billionaire donors? The democrats have 165 billionare donors that are all from the forbes 400.

  • @curlylarrymoe Which "grass roots" organization do those 165 billionaires donate money too?.. oh wait...they don't.

  • @BenjaminFranklin2u You seem to be a little misinformed or uninformed on this matter. The only difference is that the democrats launder their money before it goes to the grassroots organizations. Just google the Tides Foundation, George Soros, Heinz.

  • @curlylarrymoe this dumbass benjamin is from canada, his opinion on american politics is about as valuable as a democrats word, compleatly worthless

  • @curlylarrymoe What organization does those companies donate too that calls itself 'grassroots' ?

    If you are going to make a claim, please bring all the facts, not just the convenient ones.

  • @curlylarrymoe because the socialist scum don't want you to notice the fact that all the celebrities that support them are the richest ppl in america.

  • Speaking of the very rich,

    which you are,

    I notice that you failed to mention that John Kerry has elected to dock his new

    $7,000,000.00 76-foot yacht in neighboring Rhode Island, allowing him to avoid paying roughly $500,000 in taxes to his cash-strapped Mass.

    In the sense of fairness, I thought you might also say something about liberal democrats fucking the system.

    Guess not.

    Probably just an oversight.

  • @bobbytiger

    Guess you failed to notice the differences between your example and the story at hand.

    Cenk didn't seem to have a problem with rich people being republicans, just the portrayal of the rich as being a 'grassroots' organization.

    What does John Kerry's yacht have to do with anything?

  • @BenjaminFranklin2u

    It's called "bait and switch".

    I aquired this skill from liberal democrats, who,

    when asked a direct question,

    answer everything except for the original question.

    I have even learned,

    when I have no answer, or, are uncomfortable with the question, to charge the questioner with "racism".

  • @bobbytiger LOL

    Do liberal democrats have skills to acquire?...really? ... lol

  • Connecting Bill Ayers to Obama????????????? Didn't the guy visit the White House like 20times? Clearly they are buddies.

  • @RussMusiq

    Now there you go,

    letting the facts get in the way of Cenks one-sided reporting.

  • @RussMusiq So anyone who visits the White house 20 times is suddenly a buddy?

  • @BenjaminFranklin2u Well at least it shows that he knows some one in there very well.

  • @RussMusiq No. It doesn't show anything. Visiting the White House and visiting the president are two very different things.

  • @BenjaminFranklin2u

    OK, so if you think that it is OK that this guys visits the WH, fine by me. I really fail to see why i should convince anyone why a criminal should not be invited to the White House.

  • @RussMusiq You shouldn't, but that's not what you were saying.

  • Adam Smith is for rich people paying proportionally more in taxes to help the public revenue. He mentions this many times in his book - The Wealth of Nations. Why? Adam Smith implied the Moral obligations of the wealthier class to help the poor through a state which concentrates on Moral obligations. Adam Smith even mentions MORAL CAUSES. He also mentions MODERATION of taxes. Point is ADAM SMITH...believes in the use of taxes to support MORAL obligations to society!!!

  • billionaires are just pissed cause their roll in the bushh-hay is coming to an end...pay godam taxes you bunch of THIEVES!

  • the problem with democrats is that those who support dems have NO money except the money redistributed via the Obama administration. They are a group of jealous fools like the TYT. Remember that the TYT post their videos on YouTube do not get paid, they are lower than the public cable news channels

  • @gjtek2003 ...so you're an asshole???? I see....so you actually despise poor people and want more people to become poor uh...well well mr asswipe...when poor people become the majority, guess what they will do to the few that control power....? I'll give you anexample...see Cuba...venezuela...and the rest of the 3rd world countries. So now we know what you want America to become eh? You r so stupid, calling you an american is an insult to our constitution

  • @inodoropereira1000 I hope you get throat cancer and find out what Obama does with useless slaves to his agenda. He will let you rot at home with a pain pill to die

  • @gjtek2003 ..that's okay...since I've done your mom...I cant be mad at you son...but will give you a piece of advice. Run! before u get caught!..LOLOLOL...ur such a hater, only venom spews outta you...u poor example of a bad human being...actually...u really are a lovely piece of crap on the GOP's wall of laughter..they really laugh at you when u send them money...really...they do...and they even gave u a black RNC leader to top it all off...LOLOLOL...you r such a dumbass...keep hating man. lol

  • I love how all the voices on AM talkradio are right wingers complaining about the "Liberal Media." But there is no liberal voices, just them.

    Another point of complaint they have been successful at is "Liberal Elite," which lacks a definition.

    Geez, these guys are good at this.

  • Good if had Millions,Billions, I would too.

  • the fucking video wont start

  • Well just because its rich people giving it doeesn't necessarily mean its not grassroots. I mean the majority of the funds may have come from those names but they still could've gotton thousands of smaller donations...

  • @Yewon2001 97% comes from 4 billionaires. How is that not an artificial boost? How is this not a political system weighted in favour of a capitalist elite?

  • It's amazing that we have so many ignorant people in the country who don't see that when the GOP is talking about "grassroots" - they are really talking about ways to get more money to billionaires.

  • lol No shock here

  • lol as soon as you said Carl Rove, who in their right mind would believe in anything that monster is a part of.

  • Yeahh.. it's about time. THANK YOU billionaires. I am sick of Soros giving to marxists. It's about time someone sponsors Americans too..

  • @BlueSkies360 americans are worss than marxists they are fascists, they believe that it is ok to make other nations beholden to their own ideal systems and they use underhanded intelligence ops and wars to accomplish it = fascism....like the nazi.

    @ least with marxist you have a pre communist mentality and basically want to have gov powerless before the systems it is there to uphold..... nothing about making war to force others to conform, no devious childish intelligence org.

  • I still can't believe they gave so little. I mean, it's a million or so dollars but it's not much when you think about how much they are worth.

  • awesome. now we know who is not 'clean'. any good guys left out in the world now and days?

  • There is essentially no difference between the "political" parties, so why even continue with this bullshit? Listening to you morons talking about "sonservatives" and "liberals" just makes me sad that there are so many stupid people in the world. Trained in failed catergorization skills. Conservative liberal dna is all that comes out of your mouths and saliva is more useful. Grow up and get some ecucation.

  • Name'em and shame'em Cenk.

  • that the republicans, who like wrapping themelves up in teh flag of "god, the bible and family values" will only reimpliment the policies that favor teh rich and powerful and leave the lower class scrabbling in teh dust. So those who scream family values God and apple pie keep thumping your bibles, im sure it'll do a lot of fgood once your family runs out of food and the bank comes to take your home

  • Politics is, was and always will be about money and power. Concepts like morality and family and faith and God are incongruent with this belief other thant the fact they are often used by politicians as tools/weapons to gain both. What kills me is that those mad at the current administration think that swepings Republicans back into power is somehow gonna get this country "back on the right track" even though they're one of the main reasons were in the mess were in. The truth is...

  • @tehant1liberal, Marxism in its true form is an evolutionary process. From the Workers capturing the state(gov) into its demolishing of the state into a stateless society and therefore creating a classless society. THIS IS MARXISM ! OK, now Nazism is not for this! They want the state to survive. They want the class structure to survive! Finally, they want their TRIBE to survive. Marxism never touches on tribalistic survival NAZISM. NAZIS = Germanization / Marxism = Humanization without a state.

  • @tehant1liberal, there is great difference between Marxists and Nazis. They may be similar on the area of government but are different in the implementation of their ideas. Nazis were created to capture the Left votes & at the same time use deep Xenophobic historical fears within the German populace to gather support. NAZIS use gov. to GERMANIZE population & use industry for war & territorial expansion. Nazis then forced Soviet Russia to adopt War Communism.

  • 1 dislike, whos the idiot that refutes facts

  • @ston3thro lol they we're probably like "c'mon-c'mon-c'mon-c'mon-c'mon­..."

  • I am going to make this very clear. WE ARE HOPE & CHANGE! Not President Obama! The voters are HOPE & CHANGE! The foreigners who are adopt the ideas are HOPE & CHANGE! The billionaires are NOT are enemies we are simply telling them that pouring money into a mostly a neo CON party is doing great disservice to all of humanity! Moral Capitalists versus Immoral capitalists has always been the conflict.

  • Billionaires are the hardest working Americans and there is nothing wrong with accepting their support, even though it only makes up a small part of the funding the Republican party recieves as a whole because it is supported by grassroot Americans all over the country who want to stop the Obama government from taking over their lives. Have any libs seen how many big union bosses pay almost 99% of the DNCs budget? Remember the Nazi party started out as a left wing trade union...

  • The Nazi party was fascist which is an extreme right wing position. It was founded to fight communism you uneducated piece of sh!t

  • @tehant1liberal Oh Lordy!!! You are one funny dude. Just where did you get your facts? Wait don't answer that... I think we all know this one.

  • @tehant1liberal if you mean the german workers party ... it wasn't a trade union. It was a right wing political group that grew out of the militarist movement.

  • @tehant1liberal Don't be stupid. It isn't 99%. Besides this, candidates in the US depend largely on there own donations and lobbying, which largely come from business and wealthy individuals - this includes Democrats. In Europe, most social-democratic parties (which candidates do depend on) are not even majority funded by unions and most unions have been forced to accept the neoliberal settlement anyway to prevent further reprisals.

  • @tehant1liberal The final point is that billionaires are not the most hard-working individuals; at no other time in history could such gargantuan inequalities exist, it is contingent upon their exploitation through the capitalist mode of production. And no, the Nazis were only ever affiliated with a tiny number of unions before they gained office, at which point they banned independent trade unions.

  • has he ever talked about Soro's on the program?

  • "grassroots"

    "family values"

    "moral majority" even

    "mama grizzlies"

    are all things that conservative republicans know nothing about, empty words from empty people

  • awesome shiny shirt. love it.

  • Cross...road...nothing subliminal there. I hear lots of bitching about soros funding left wing stuff, but if you get a group of 4 billionaires it's ok?

  • @prankwatcher You are right, completely. But the repubs are so very smug about denying it. Whereas dems are just pussies, it doesn't take much to beat it out of them.

  • @prankwatcher you honestly think he doesn't know Dems do the same thing? wow,

    he's just pointing this out.

  • not just the republicans Turk...this last week my local media and NPR were covering all the candidates running for this election...regardless of who they were, what party they were in, and which media was interviewing, everyone of these establishment politicians were, "a grassroots candidate." grassroots has become just another term in the political lexicon with no meaning...kind of like the word frankly...to me, part of the formula for "grassroots" is a person who has never ran for office...

  • huge elbow from the sky

  • The GOP would be broke without these rich conservatives donating money to the party. Grassroots my ass.

  • If Republican Americans could bomb all of America but leave just their own homes untouched they would push the button as fast as they can. Republicans hate anyone who makes less than 1 million a year. So all those dumb fuck broke Tea idiots should stop acting like sheep and worshiping Rich Republicans because of their power to lie and be believed.

  • @derberg19486

    but those dumb broke tea idiots

    think they are the rich dont you get it.

    They are been told time and time again,

    that they are the rich, and Obama´s socialism is only

    for the black poor people sitting in their couches and not doing anything.

    to rile them up and vote against their own interests.

  • well if these people didn't give there money to the G.O.P morons maybe they wouldn't be crying "there stealing my money those poor lazy people crap. those blacks mexicans and the unemployed damn them folks:)

  • Hey, Cenk,

    Grass is green, right? And so is money, so... to a Republican, the more money you have, the more grass roots you must be, right?

  • Astroturf.

  • Note to self (and you): No Omni Hotels. No Gold's Gym.

  • Good thing I don't go to Gold's Gym. Instead I go to the YMCA which was just recently bought out by UPMC which is a bank holding company.

  • FUCK!! I was at Gold's yesterday. Fucking tards.

  • Isn't this kind of thing called astroturfing?

  • Yeah, some grassroots...

  • and if us democrats had 4 billionares funding the progressive party and had similar backgrounds would you bitch about that?

  • @jeffxl12 Yea those pricks care what happens to your stupid ass. Team jetfix12

  • @jeffxl12

    We bitch about corporate funding, so yeah, we would.

  • @jeffxl12 its not the funding that's bothersome but calling it 'grassroots' that should have you concerned.

  • @jeffxl12 It's the whole "grassroots" thing that's the problem, guy.

  • @jeffxl12 Well, that officialy mean that we will got a third party by the merge of the Vermont's, Minnesota's and Wisconsin's progressive... I mean, the democrat are not really progressive anymore: they don't really talk about electoral reform for instance ;)

  • Thanks for spreading the where abouts of these Financial Terrorists including Porky Face Rove as the chief conductor to this about to become BOONDOGLE. I guarantee you they will never get it on before 2012. I have a Big Surprise for the Corporate Elites, the Tide is about to change for them like they've never seen.

  • Karl Rove? Isn't that the guy that looks like Porky Pig?

  • I hope Karl Rove will suffer a stroke and probably gain 50 IQ points sometime in the near future.

  • there's a Gold's Gym in my town and all my friends go to it :-( fucking asshole. ruining my experience

  • @Kcrefa Worst example ever. He pretty much does shit money out of his ass by getting you people angry by relating everything back to class-division stereotypes.

    On top of that, he's the highest paid on the TYT staff, plus he's collecting checks from MSNBC. I'm sure Cenk doesn't care about the 30 cent commission he makes on a Netflix account. That money - according to TYT - goes to hire more staff to "dig for stories" (that they still regularly report late on)

    /facepalm

  • @beyondwithinitself comparing Cenk to billionares is just stupid. If Cenk makes a decent living so be it. At least he isnt trying to crush the middle class and poor. They just started getting sponsorship very recently. The people that work at TYT deserve to make a living like anyone who works everyday.

  • @beyondwithinitself How HORRIBLE of him to open the eyes of others to the Republicans effort to kill the middle class.

    If you don't like TYT or their stories, why do you watch and comment on them? I'm pretty sure Fox News is on 24/7. If you don't like the truth, you can always go turn that on.

  • @beyondwithinitself and you are watching this because......

  • Well, didn't see that clip of Bush at the fund raiser at some millionaire gathering? I think it went something like this; "some people call you the HAVES, I call you MY BASE". So your right, that is grassroots to the Republican party.

  • also, if rich people want to donate millions of dollars to my grassroots campaign, i'll gladly accept it.

  • NETFLIX

    GODADDY

    TYT you hypocrite bastards.

  • @Turambar88 How is that any different? They profess to be for the little guy while taking money from giant corporations and flaunting it. Lookup: sellout.

  • Jeez, the Democrats need to start playing dirty like the Republicans. or they're not gonna get anything done.

  • @elmirasahar And then what? We'll have a government of frauds and cheaters.. Not that we don't already.

  • @megamarsvin i'm just saying that they should work a little more.....efficiently.

  • What the fuck is up with all these conservative advertisements on the right side of the screen? They're annoying me.

  • Wow I never expected that... (rolls eyes)

  • meh, not really that much

  • Well this is the "reality" conservatives are trying to construct, if they brand their elitism as grassroots often enough it becomes acepted as common wisdom. While an entire generation of working class conservatives are brainwashed into voting against their self interest and for an elitist ideology that despises them

  • @BrightonContrarian10 so tell me... how do you know their self-interests?

  • @BrightonContrarian10 Well put.

  • "Grassroots" means "by the rich, for the rich, with illusions to the contrary."

  • @magx01

    yUP

    WITH A PHONY - PSEUDO PATRIOTIC NAME !

  • @hackit12

    Indeed.

  • Well what Rove means by "grassroots" is that he had to walk across the grass of the front lawn of their mansions to get to the roots of their billions.

    In Rove's neocon mind of "creating reality" that is all the grassroots he needs for it to be true.

  • @WhirlingWolves OLOL...Now that! was funny...what a bunch of pigs ....

  • @GJNCA Post a write your speech post your video.

  • LMAO I know those reflublicans hate Cenk! This was on point.

  • hahahaha...grassroots! i fuggin fell out of my chair..thats priceless.

  • Same story for the FairTax. Just four billionaires funding most of it. Google the Fair Tax Fraud Institute for the real story.

  • Well the good part is now we can decide whether we want to vote for Big Oil (Republican) or Failed Corporations Seeking Tax-dollars (Democrat). You can now decide which set of corporate fucktards will run your government and tax you dry. I'm lovin' it.

  • @VeritasTruthEmet While your basic point is correct, we have 2 parties that are really just the far right and center branches of the corporatist party. But they both feed at the exact same troughs - big oil, wall street, defense contractors and the health care industry, among others. To suggest that the Dems are the party of bailing out failed companies, however, ignores the fact that it was the Republicans who created the TARP program.

  • @corpen11 Yeah, but only as long as we do the swallowing.

  • I think progressives should compile a list of corporations and executives who fund these conservatives, so as to not buy from these corporations. Let's face this fact, progressives are usually better off than conservatives, and that's one damned large market to lose.

    No, progressives are MUCH worse than Conservatives and are FAR WEAKER. Conservatives OUTNUMBER libs and progressives 100 to 1.

  • @ecwaufisxtreme where did you get your 100 to 1 number? I agree that democrats are far weaker than conservatives, but at least democrats aren't a bunch of anarchists wanting the USA to go back to the bronze age...geez

  • @ecwaufisxtreme You're telling me that retards outnumber reasonable people by 100 to 1?

  • @TheNavigateur Sounds about right... maybe 50:1
