Young Turks Weekly Round-Up -- July 17, 2009

[Illumified]

big fat liar, mac fatty fat lies all day

[horbergaren]

2:55 is so fucking funny

[FounderAeneas]

Wake up white man!

[Orionx26]

WTF?

[Orionx26]

Nation was founded on Libertarian principles... Lets bring that back. Get big government out of my life and out of my pocket. I'm tired of being robbed by force by the government.

[restlys]

yeah and lets get rid of that stupid army, education system, streets, police, firemen, legislation, court system, permits of any kind, etc etc etc

cuz i dont like the government being in my pockets !

[Orionx26]

Why is this Strawman arguement brought up time and time again? Any rational person can agree what the Government is there to provide. Health Care is something I want to chosse for myself. IF THE GOVERNMENT has to put a single cent into that system... THey will want a say in how it is run. They will make laws tell you how to conduct your health. I DO NOT WANT.

[restlys]

2 things here, the gov is ALREADY putting money into the system 2 ways : medicaid/medicare, and when you go into the emergency room and cannot pay for youself.

Now is the gov telling us how to run things? no? ok so if it puts a lil more it will? how much is that?

second, if you do not like how they want to run the public option stay with your insurance provider dumbass, but stop telling people who dont have anything ..or people that have something that sucks what they should get...

[Orionx26]

Stop telling me that I should pay for people who don't have insurance.

The Government WILL be telling us how to run things. Thats why OBAMA wanted to fine anyone who didn't have insurance.

Third, the government will still mandate what insurance I get and will likely tax my insurance if I feel like being over covered. They took the 260 billion dollars out of the bill that WILL put us into a deficit promising not to cut Docs reimbursement for 7 years! Sneaky Sneaky! I bet you came up with that,

[Orionx26]

That 260 billion dollars is conveniently being put into another bill so Obama can sidestep going back on his promise. Did you know that? THIS IS GOVERNMENT and why I don't want them to INTRUDE into my life. People need to take care of them selves. BECAUSE you can do it better than the government can. Pansy mamas boy grow up and take care of yourself and expect the same from everyone else.

[restlys]

second of all, no they will no. How do i know? well, look at all the gov in the world that have that sys( a diff sys that you would have..single payer for instance) and do they have the laws of health conduct? lol obv not.

However usa is leading in shitty health anyways, you might not want health laws about the conduct...but youd better start thinking about a way to deal with your issue.

im canadian. proud of our system, works better than yours. proof = life expectancy.

[Orionx26]

Our system works better for your rich. Proof... They bring money here for their heart transplants.

[restlys]

no. we "bring money" to you cause you have the best experts in the field. However ima argue that your nitpicking...for me the importance of the life of a rich person is not > than the imp of a poor person...hence if your system gets treatment for one rich person at the cost of poor people(keeping it simple obv) then i am against that way of doing things.

[Orionx26]

And again you missed the point. We have experts because the field pays well. When the Government owns things THEY don't pay well. Thats why you won't see a cadiothoracic or vascular surgeon in Canada. Its just not worth spending thirty years in school to not get compensated for that work. Once that is gone here we wont have experts.

[Orionx26]

4 years if undergrad. 4 years of med school. 1 year internet. 3-4 years general surgery, 2 years specialization and fellowship if they decide.

16 years give or take... Not 30 that was a exaggeration.

[Orionx26]

And our life expectancy has nothing to do with our health care. It has to deal with our horrible eating habits. Obesity is killing our country. Its no wonder why heart disease and Arteriosclerosis is our number one killer.

And of course you LOVE your system you don't pay taxes yet. talk to me when you are 35.

[restlys]

of course i pay taxes whats this shitty argument...takes me hours to get all the documentations to do my taxes

second : yes your obesity accounts for some variance in your life expectancy...however there is variance attributed to the fact that a certain % of people are not covered, or are but do not want to risk going to see the doctor.

3rd: people over 35 also love our system...were not dumb we keep track of these kinds of things.

[Orionx26]

Its nice how you are talking to me about statistics. How much variance does this cause? How much of that variance could be avoided if the poor people just stopped going to mcdonalds ten times a week? If we insured all the people who can't pay for it and they still eat MC Donalds ten time a week... how much is it gonna cost to treat these chronically ill people? The government will have to tax and regulate mcdonalds to pay for it. More expansion of government and poor people will have to pay.

[restlys]

if you really had an issue with mcdees, chose a personal insurance company that asks how many times a week you eat there to get insured.

but thats besides the point : your dont and will not have a single payer, you will never have to pay for those mcdee lunchers...if you find your insurance does and you dont like it change insurance. again theres only like 3 % of the pop that will go on the public option...

[Orionx26]

You missed the point. the point is that the Government will have to regulate what people eat in order to subsidized and pay for the public option.

[restlys]

secondly the gov will not insure poor people, the gov will make a system where poor people(your obv discriminating btw but ima go along for simplicity sake) have to get insured..and thats where the pub opt gets in. if we only get them insured the insurance comp will boost the prices like theres no tomorow - then your paying more thats bad....but thats why there a public option thats more efficient, doesnt do advertising, and doesnt want profits....hopefully thats enough to compete with privates.

[Orionx26]

I'm part of the 90% of the insured in this country and I am also part of the 84-86% that is satisfied with their health insurance. Those are numbers you can probably put up against yours.

[restlys]

your satisfied that your premiums went up 114% in the last ten years? or that everymonth theres like 4 thousand people dying cuz of their bad coverage(go see grayson for this one...im doing my best ot quote him)...are you satisfied that you have bankruptcy because of your healthcare system? how many bnkrptcu do they have in france?........ 0 . your satisfied that someone gets refused coverage cuz of acnee?(women got cancer and insurance told her she had precancerous tumors, docs called it acne

[Orionx26]

I could go online and pull up horror stories about your country too. Premiums go up because health care is expensive. how much has the cost of health care risen in the last ten years? Thats an important question that hasn't been answered. And that 114% is NOTHING NOTHING to what I will be paying in taxes when the Government start subsidizing the public option.

[Silberdachs]

Turks rock!

[nuretX]

the great turks never want to be european we just came there from middle asia named turkistan. so we are not in a curcimstation like who we are ,we already now who we are. and we are the turks who get the naitons from middle asia to the middle europa.we are the turks that change ages two times. 1.The migrations of the Germanic Tribes (Atilla commander from hun Turks)

2.conquest of istanbul- 1453- fatih sultan mehmet han

[101Frenchkisses7]

Ha ha another hilarious week of The Young Turks. Glenn Beck's brain snap was the funniest thing I've heard in a long time. He should go into comedy.

[da1932king]

dese turks are awesome

[timm9]

boring

[Sensfan613]

cenk.. u the fuckin man bro

keep it real when mass media fucking eats a big dick.

[Azadeth666]

2:59 WTF? I'm sorry, but Glenn Beck has GOT to be faking it. People who react that way are the same kind of people who wear underpants on their heads and stick pineapples up their asses. If Beck is even able to tie his own shoes, it's gotta be an act.

[blackdot1128]

I think Beck's Fuzzy little head just exploded @ 2:59 ROTFL

[audadvnc]

What? Joe Biden is running assassination squads?

"It's like passing a bowling ball outta your ass". What a concept... TMI

And - BTW - have you noticed that all the N's are backwards on the screen at 5:22 ?

[blackdot1128]

Cheney tried to assemble an assassination hit squad. Then he ordered the CIA to lie to congress about his shady dealings.

[WingThaiJ]

Hey, if it KILLS Terrorists and protects your children, way to go Cheney! It's nice to hear that someone has a realistic view of what needs to be done. What would you do if someone had your child hostage & they had someone they knew had information & seconds mattered? Oh, water-boarding to harsh now, huh? Pelosi knows better than the CIA huh? The Obama cult continues... Oh, But he talks so nicely!

[Atheistx82]

You know, CNN and MSNBC are the Tabloid Channels, right after FOX of course.

[IndependentEsse]

the what's the real news channel? C-Span?

[Atheistx82]

C-Span is real news, but it's also specialized news. Basically what I'm saying is that if you want news, you're not going to find much of it on cable news channels.

[Brennan120793]

0:24 lol

[hellothere1919]

The set is straight out of 1977. His dress sense is straight out of 1991. His mentality is straight out of 40,000,000 B.C.

[mynameisbobtoo]

kind of like your hair used to be on top of your head in 1977? Your clothing sucks too grey sweat shirt guy...and as for thinking anyone gives a fuck about your opinion...well they don't. Meanwhile the YTY is taking off and Cenks been on TV..Are you making a difference or are you just some bitter prick who goes around bashing people so you can feel better?

[hellothere1919]

mynameisbobtoo: Rotfl! WTF! fuck off and learn "Eeengleesh" you fool!

[mynameisbobtoo]

There you go again thinking any one gives a shit about what you think.

[Rosannasfriend]

This is the most viewed video on political news today?? I saw that on my channel.

[jmotz3]

This shit is stupid. They are just as lame as the MSM and talk about the same shit

[Obelisk2290]

nothing on cronkite?

[Blerrycat]

GET OFF MY PHONE!!

[obama444]

Ana on 4:03 lol

[johnandamanda123]

sen grahm kinda looks like an old lesbian I know jon stewart said it first but it true.

[mynameisbobtoo]

he does look like an old lesbian...

[megamarsvin]

Won't be for lack of trying. A lot of people here want the Turks in the E.U. and I'm one of em :)

[doubleg137]

you're not able to get the podcast?

[megamarsvin]

haha I think he was talking about the country, but yeah I watch it almost every day :D

[doubleg137]

lol..  that was a nice misunderstanding on my part.

[MissMusicBaby3]

Hahaha. Best Round up YET :)

[mcasual]

maybe a bowling pin but not a bowling ball, c'mon

[suchAnoob]

GET OFF MY PHONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ChimpBama]

Obama LIED:

"If we sign this stimulus bill into law it will jumpstart the economy, hold unemployment under 8%, and create 4 million new jobs"

Economy DIED:

Unsustainable debt, wasteful spending, and higher taxes HURT economic recovery. Bush's deficit has been quadrupled, unemployment is 10% and we lost 3 million jobs.

Obama LIED and the Economy DIED

[taoofmichael]

Lets give him at least until Sept 11. Thats only fair, isnt it?

[megamarsvin]

Dude with a name like that who would ever take anything you say seriously? If you want to make a point, try to do so in a mature, civilized manner. These soundbites might be catchy but they are preaching to the choir, no one else will listen.

[toribaltimore]

Go move to a republican dictatorship and leave the democratic republic of the United States of America. Barack Obama was democratically elected as the 44th President of the United States, by a landslide, i.e. 365:173, which means that in theory, President Obama could have given McCain 173 of his own votes and still would have won by 19 votes.

You and your kind are CONFEDERATE INSURGENTS. How do I know? You rhyme stupid shit, e.g. "You got time to LEAN, you got time to CLEAN" @ McDonald's.

[doubleg137]

with that user name... its obvious what your view is. DON'T COMPLAIN ABOUT THE CAR JUST BECAUSE YOU DON'T LIKE THE PAINT JOB!

[catofdoos]

You folks have done some incredible shows of satire that tells the truth.

Return to old Oral Roberts. That clip was just too funny.

[burntonion05]

I usually don't even bother with these weely round up vids but that was pretty funny.

[angelwolf333]

viceore9s=oiedrbaeeewh qew oiu

[itslilColin]

[gronlaf]

[NSU224]

Gladiator, opening battle scene.

[harr77]

How can anyone be republican after the last 9 years? The 8 with Bush and how they handled themselves afterward why does this country have so many blind people?

[butterfly8811]

[OldSchoolkmt3]

GEEEEEEEDAHFMAHPHONNNN!!!!!!!

[Archael2]

hahahaha god this show is amazing

[HaloKhyaos]

You know what else brings pizzaz to the show?

[phoenixar]

glen beck - high

[BadBoyFazz]

somebody please kill this ugly fat bastard before i do in the most cruel and unforgettable way!

[highway234]

badboyfuzz: yet another right winger BEGGING to become a person of interest to the FBI and eventually to wind up in indefinite pre-emptive detention. please refrain from internet death threats, for your own sake. it's truly a bad idea. it's what domestic terrorists do.

[lunac666]

That's the Obama plan- that's why there are FEMA camps being built- he's going to enrage them with his liberality and draw them out by rumoring that he is taking their guns away- the crazies will volunteer, in so much as BBF here has, and they will be interned. I say we ignore them, how great would America be if the dumb violent ones were put away whether they've committed a crime or not..

the re-education camps are still a work in progress though...

oops..shhhhhh don't tell them....

[DTMTroy]

Cenk could fuck you up ten ways to Sunday kid.

[BCRice111]

if we all could be so lucky, then you would just off yourself first

[CGpolTV]

This guy is an idiot and extremely stupid

[selfmadetool]

You killed it, Jayar!  I love how this round-up began!

[greatgames148]

go ahead smoke it!

[dbadmus]

WHo watches the weekly Round Up?

[DTMTroy]

Aprox. 11,727 do I guess.

[kmica2008]

/watch?v=bb5HRN4q1KU

[buffalosouljah18]

Ahhhh poooosaaaay

[SunSin1000]

when you brake THE STORY'S up. it just sounds like rambling. not entertaining at all.

[highway234]

i think the round up is for folks who follow the show, it's fun to see if they pick the same things you'd pick as someone who watched or listened all week.

those who DON'T follow the show, conversely, are officially invited to eat a bag of dicks. :P fricassied goat penises are even better.

PS ana you're totally right that the show's male bias is a problem. keep fightin' the good fight, as i actually thought your rant on the subject was the real moment of the week.

[bahamiangreek101]

I agree highway234.

[kevinleeisme]

4:03 lmao

[bobbytiger]

Sorry the GOP disappointed you in their failure to attack Sotomeyor.

I mean,

it's not like they fabricated a story about one of her pubic hairs on a Coke can, (like the liberals did with Thomas), in an attempt to trash her.

Sorry Cenk.

[Jermbot15]

"it's not like they fabricated a story about one of her pubic hairs on a Coke can, (like the liberals did with Thomas),"

You know that story to be fabricated how?

[truepaths]

MC Lyte at the end... someone at TYT knows good hip hop. New York rap from the early 90s= win.

[NitaBMe]

You notice that too, huh? 

I bet it's Cenk ;-) LOL

[EveSideR4LiFE]

hahaha... at 4:02 hahahahaha...

Crazy Ana...

[iurhviusdfavhi]

I love this show

[adamthelover10]

glen beck is mad but seriously mad

[SirSierraLeone]

he sounds like don vito.. frim viva la bam :b

[nriab23]

Why the fuck is there a scientology advert at the side of the page? Oo

[dirtydog288]

Unsubscribing today you talk to much shit your show is boring :P

[realbram]

G'BYE!!

[IndiMusicLover]

Republicans are a bunch of ignorant malcontents, who can be worked into a frenzy about anything. They simply can't live with the reality that they lost the election so badly. Their desperation has lead them to look increasingly insane. Their divorce from reality and retreat into the political netherland of subjective hate and fear, runs counter to the direction of the conciousness of our country. These Palinesque optics will lead them to a major defeat in 2010 and 2012. Life is beautiful.

[free2question]

1:03

German barbarian leader from the movie Gladiator!

[eeedel]

Ana is a goddess.

[Sardonac]

What was 3:50 about?

[whateverni]

The growing trend of showing penises in movies.

[bodoggyT1000]

tyt nation!

[Promatheos]

4:02 best part.

[AbsolutionDouble0]

I dunno, 0:23-0:30 was pretty good.

[ipodkiller6]

It seems like Cenk and I see politics the same why. If it's not complete entertainment, then it's 100% uninteresting. When it comes down to it, everything in the media is entertainment, even complete terror. It gives people something to talk about.

[Leadman1989]

why doesn't cenk audio bite him self he says some hilarious stuff

[JoeyBieg]

The editing is awesome.

[Choopmans]

TYT ftw

[Lionel0008]

TYT Rocks

[CTKJNZ]

[PhrexianReturns]

I laughed.

[kmsorxas]

Congrats.
