At 1:11, remember people, that Kennedy is so much more than that! .... only to herself, haha. Honestly though, if I had to be in a room with her for hours at a time.... she'd get a black eye and if she didn't STFU... sorry, but she'd be leaving in a bodybag. This specimin of a human being, this "Kennedy", is definitely an abomination and can only make the rounds in basement interviews and at the far end of the library QnA's.
"and explosives!" durhur.... the other day i was like "my cock and"....before i could finish she blurted "and balls!" with a proud look on her face. i was like, "uh, yeah...they need to be sucked." and she was like "awhhhh" (_(_)===D O<:
I, too, came here to express awe (that such an idiot .. Kennedy.. has a forum to voice whatever random crap passes through her stilted mind) and anger (that Bill Maher let her run her stupid mouth). Are she and Christine O'Donnell (sp?) related?? maybe members of the same coven???
@waksibra I love how she said it was hubris to say Obama has already won the election yet she later goes on to say "I'm a philosophy major" to justify her expertise in atheism being a religion. I was hoping Bill would've shut her down saying that atheism is a religion in the same way not collecting stamps is a hobby.
@waksibra lol i came here to bitch about her after seeing Maher too. i've never seen someone on his show so annoying. i hope she becomes part of the kennedy curse.
@SYLBM That is exactly what brought me here as well. I heard her claim that atheism was a religion and that she knew this because she was a philosophy major. A philosophy major?Really? Apparently she didn't learn much. I was so shocked by her sheer stupidity that I just had to find out who this moron was.
@waksibra i think she meant it in the sense that some atheists have that same attitude as some people who claim to believe in a certain religion. some of them go out of their way to denounce religion the way some religions denounce other religions.
@bomblast2000 Arguing that your religion is better is in no way the same as attempting to refute the claims of religions as an atheist, just as there's a huge difference between claiming "My god can beat up your god" and informing people that dropping their kids on your head isn't the best thing for the child's cognitive development.
@misschloe3353 The construct of your argument is a little off. Atheism is akin to informing people that their belief is false. Some people believe that atheism has crossed over into the realm of religion when its followers start behaving in ways that seem evangelical or fundamentalist. It is one thing to have the belief that what can be measured or observed is solely what exists, it is another to try to force that belief on others since you can't prove their beliefs to be wrong.
@waksibra She's annoying as fuk. She wouldn't let anyone get a word in edge wise. Yea, she's not very bright and likes to be loud more than make sense.
@waksibra It takes just as much faith to believe in no god than it take to believe in God, that the universe just came to be rather than intelligently designed; atheism is just as much of a beliefs system practiced throughout one's life than any other religion.
@uk6strings Atheism is a single answer to a single question. That's how the word is mostly used. I have no faith. It requires no faith to say "I don't know".
Kennedy you stupid skeleton slut. You have the chest of an 8 year old boy. You could open a drive- in movie on your giant football shaped forehead. Oh and nice eyebrows you stinking cunt.. Do us a favor and shut your obnoxous bean teeth crusted mouth
MTV was the shit back when Kennedy was on it in the first half of the 90's. Music was great back then and the analog sourced recordings were much better than today's digital recordings.
You can very much be a social conservative and a libertarian, I for instance am a social conservative and a libertarian. True political libertarianism(classical liberalism) is INSANE and IMPOSSIBLE unless tempered by social conservatism (traditional Christian values), this is something which our founding fathers understood very well. The original libertarians (classical liberals) like Edmund Burke and Jefferson would be considered extremely socially conservative by todays standards.
@xxcrysad3000xx Jefferson was an infidel, my point is that to the public he would have appeared socially conservative by modern standards. The sad thing is that it is Jefferson who said this "I never believed there was one code of morality for a public and another for a private man". But anyway, the whole "Jefferson had kids with a slave" thing might also be greatly exaggerated, remember that the penalty for sexual relations with your slave was DEATH.
@WorshipInTruth Drawing comparisons across vast swaths of history is always problematic and usually pretty stupid. It goes without saying that most figures from the era of the Revolution would appear to us as very socially conservative--you could also say they seem utterly backward in about a thousand other regards too, or racist, or shoddy dressers. All you're doing is misrepresenting history by judging it in a contemporary light that happens to coincide with your beliefs.
@xxcrysad3000xx You don't seem to realize that I wish society was more like it was at the time of Americas founding fathers, they were not as stupid and "bigoted" as you may think. If we could return culture to the point it was during 1776 yet with modern technology I would be well pleased.
@xxcrysad3000xx Political libertarianism makes perfect sense if it is within the bounds of the Christian culture we had at the founding of this country, with the modern abundance of libertines true political libertarianism has become an impossibility, we as a society have become so degenerate [now viewing morality as being subjective] that government feels it has to take upon itself the paternal role to keep us from rolling in our own shit.
@WorshipInTruth I think you're looking at our history with some very very fancy rose tinted glasses. You act as if sin was invented in the 20th century, and that America's moral hypocrisies weren't all the more glaring 200 years ago, in an age of "Christian culture" that permeated every waking hour of everyone's existence. And you pine for the return of Christian paternalism, excepting that we can keep the lovely technology--as if it wasn't a result or indeed the cause of social progress.
@xxcrysad3000xx I know that sin is not some new innovation, I always keep in mind that there is "nothing new under the sun", but back then sin was not as ACCEPTED as it is today where people prance around acting as if they are PROUD of their shameful behavior. The fact that you immediately connect technological progress to "social progress" just shows how completely indoctrinated you are. You can thank Bible believers like Sir Isaac Newton and James Clerk Maxwell for our modern tech innovations.
@xxcrysad3000xx Furthermore.... you are, in fact, the one who is looking at modern social changes through "very fancy rose tinted glasses" by even referring to them as "progressions" in the first place when they are in reality moral REGRESSIONS, history is not a steady and continuous progression into enlightenment as you have been conditioned to believe, that is an extremely haughty oversimplification of the reality.
WOW, this woman sounds sooooo smart! She must have several college degrees and earn a lot! And I bet she doesn't even have a drug problem.... no definitely no drug problem. Rehab was made for a reason.
Well said re: letting others define you. I have a glen beck loving aunt who keeps trying to call me a socialist because shes too fucking stupid to understand what I DO believe. Pisses me off - I know what I am and what I am not.
Libertarianism seems to me like the new political counter-culture, so its not surprising a new young generation is taking to it like gangbusters. Its come full circle, its now hip to be conservative... not socially conservative of course, but in the classical liberal sense... which of course sounds very appealing to people who are tired of the hackneyed left and right caricatures and the ubiquitous punditry that are their bullhorn..
@hannas1234 Easy--free music leads to the elimination of paid musicians. You've heard amateur musicians. What if all music you heard was made by those guys?
@Ralph64 That would be fantastic.. I can't remember the last time I listened to anything on the radio. If you all are truly about free markets, then that means you're for embracing technological innovation, and if that's putting the squeeze on music as we know it, all the better. That just unleashes a wave of creativity... right? Isn't that the whole libertarian gimmick? If you don't evolve and innovate, get outta the way, ya loser bums!
@xxcrysad3000xx We already have free music. Many artists give their music away for free. What you want to do is remove the right from an artist to charge anything for his or her work. Why not leave that choice in the hands of the musician?
I'm assuming you're talking about illegal downloading here, so let me know if you're talking about something else when you say "free music" -- wouldn't want to go off on a tangent.
@Ralph66 I'm saying its high time the recording industry starts looking beyond its old business model.. post-Napster they fought tooth and nail against digital distribution when they should've been adapting. We've seen chain record shops eat the ma & pa operations, then big box retail eat the mega-chains, then online retailers swallow big box, and now digital distribution is king. I was poking fun at the first post, obviously "free music" is silly--I happen to like paying for what I consume.
@xxcrysad3000xx Agreed on that score. Also I think we as a market need to do a little more exploring and seek out the available music outside our comfort zone, and reward those "undiscovered" bands by downloading more of their stuff.
@Ralph64 Then I'd have a lot more selection and the choice of what was good or not rather than what a record label says is good. What do you think 'professional' musicians start as?
@hannas1234 True, in the old system record labels, concert promoters and radio stations controlled what music was heard. But that's changing now, due to the technological innovation someone mentioned. It used to be nearly impossible to self-publish, now anyone can, and get their music heard on YouTube, iTunes, internet radio, blogs... And all for the better. BUT... Let the poor musicians charge 99 cents for a download, willya? They've got to get something for their work.
@Ralph64 I fully support musicians having the choice to charge whatever they see fit for their work, as you put it. I simply don't see a problem with free music.
@hannas1234 Ah, I see. We're in agreement then! Sorry, a lot of times I hear things like "I shouldn't have to pay for this" as an excuse to pirate music or movies. Although movies today... Yeesh!
@Ralph64 ralph. i dunno if u noticed but there are more musicians than ever now( at least musicians releasing music) but no one knows about it. it takes massive resources to get your music to the masses. if you think you can do it single handlely, you're terribly mistaken. 90% of your time would go to marketing instead of actually playing. but i agree let them charge whatever they want, it's just nobodys payin', only kids in the 10-14 year old bracket.
@hannas1234 some band don't play out much for a variety of reasons. how are they gonna make any cash??? if you want a bunch of part time musicians than expect the quality to go down significantly as it has already.
Artist and musicians need to come up with a new business model to make money, other than selling stupid records. Artists already make most of their money from live concerts while they gain popularity by free means. This prohibition won't solve anything, mark my words.
Around the six minute mark, Kennedy utters something that should come as no surprise: that she was the only person at MTV who had to have network approval before she uttered a word about politics. Amazing, but not surprising.
I don't buy music anymore I am 43 when I do buy music I get it at a thrift store and it is CLASSICAL bc the music industry is corrupt. Apple really has screwed this up bc of their protectionism they screw the customer and I refuse to pay it anymore. Over the years I have bought 8 track cassset LP CD and now digital and they never gave me credit for my scratched albums or munched cassetts if the license is the reason I pay so much then HELLO a damaged LP should be given some credit when buying.
There is still time to register as a R to participate in the Primary of the R party and vote for Ron Paul I changed from L to R just to vote for Ron Paul. Why Ron Paul. I can get a copy of the constitution from his HQ try and get that from ANY of the other candidates. He wants to end war on drugs quit government welfare and so much more common sense things that should be done. Restore America NOW Ron Paul 2012.
Well, she should have qualified that statement then. Last I heard, radio is still pretty lucrative for conservatives. Why she chose "MTV" is baffling.
@VirtuesPenumbra - you're such a fucking retard. You must be blathering about your own virginity because the rest of the country doesn't work that way.
Wasn't that easy? I could be just like you. I'm so smart now!
Look at an electoral map. See all those red states? They comprise most of the states, including Texas, the largest state in the union. You really believe conservatives have it harder? Try living in a rural area and letting people know your a homosexual or that you don't believe in God. Good luck finding work.
Is there anything else you need me to explain to you in painfully plain terms?
@VirtuesPenumbra I've lived in those places you describe (Kansas, Texas), and I'm living in a blue state (California) and my experience is far different. I found more tolerance from those in the former states that I've found in the latter.
Conservative and libertarian aren't mutually exclusive. As a matter of fact what I consider "true conservatism" is very compatible and complimentary with libertarianism. Why would someone think they have to label themselves one or the other, you can be any combination of the labels, just think for yourself.
"Bush Jr & Sr. and Regean started HUGE unjust wars (Iraq, Vietnam, Communism, Bombing countries etc)".
The Bushes/Reagan had nothing to do with Vietnam, it was troop initiated/escalated by JFK & LBJ, both Democrats. And I have no idea what "communism" means in a "list of Wars". All Military conflicts started by the listed GOP presidents were the smallest military conflicts in US history. However, each WORLD WAR saw US involvement at the hands of DEMOCRATS.
Bush conservative? There is no such thing. Bush was a statist focused on the military. He loved BIG government and spending. Just because he loved war, does not make him a conservative. What is so conservative about war? In fact, the Democrats are the party of war. War is the domain of a statist.
@666sigma I find it funny how Conservatives label Democrats as the war party even though Bush Jr & Sr. and Regean hyped war propaganda and started HUGE unjust wars (Iraq, Vietnam, Communism, Bombing countries etc). And how Liberals label Republicans as the war party even though they started the wars and bombing as well (Somalia, bombing Pakistan, Libya, Yemen etc). PEOPLE NEED TO WAKE UP! It's BOTH Democrat AND Republican party who start wars and don't give a SHIT about their citizens!
Viet Nam was started by Democrats Kennedy and Johnson. Let's not forget the Civil War, WWI and WWII. How's your guy Obama doing with Pakistan, Libya and Yemen. When their terrorists strike on our soil in future generations, I am sure you will have forgotten the Predator Drone strikes by the annointed ones.
War is used by STATISTS, regardless of party affiliation. It just so happens that the Democratic Party is almost entirely statist.
@KpopManiacSFL Vietnam was largely started and escalated by LBJ, later inherited by Richard M. Nixon. Somalia's intervention was initiated by George H.W. Bush but later president William Jefferson Clinton pulled out after the Blackhawk Down incident. Sometimes one side inherits the other's conflict, but I don't necessarily think that means by default that they don't care.
@hagbard72 I know, Dennis Miller USED TO BE a libertarian.......then after 9/11 and/or after getting dropped by HBO (take your pick) he got in bed with the Faux News crowd to keep some sort of audience. Unfortunate. He's like the neo-con version of Jeanine Garofalo, also used to be more interesting (and funnier) back in the 90s before all the polarization.
Kennedy is a very moderate libertarian. More of a conservative with libertarian leanings. I used to listen to her show on KFI radio in LA, I remember her talking about legalizing weed and taxing the hell out of it. I say, legalize weed and ALL drugs, then DON'T tax any of it at all. END the wars and vote Ron Paul. haha. I like her though.
@19TEC85 How do we pay for things? Consumption tax? I am all for ending these illegal wars but we can't just disband the military, as nice as it sounds.
@HokkaidoNightfire You're just a coward who's afraid that someone somewhere might actually be enjoying themselves. So you use Daddy government to come and sick them so that we can all be boring losers like you.
@dubified89 Yep, boring losers like me who have steady jobs and don't stink like a drug addled scumbag. I'd rather be 'boring' than have my mind chemically altered for life. In reality you are a bitch to your substance. It owns you so you defend it. You're ultimately no better than a meth or heroin addict, so have a nice life.
@HokkaidoNightfire Your mind doesn't have to altered by anything, it's non-existent! Go spread your vitriol to someone who cares. Or better yet, get a fucking life!
@HokkaidoNightfire Yes I do heroin and crack cocaine frequently, this is my motivation for being a libertarian. In fact it's the motivation for all libertarians.
@fatguyonthc The way we pay for most things, through voluntary transactions. Also, legalizing drugs and not taxing them would save money...Because billions go into enforcing the war on drugs.
@HokkaidoNightfire The market is more powerful than the govt thugs. Theirs demand and the market will supply it, unless you want a totalitarian country then yes, you may get rid of all drugs and dealers. But I don't want to live in a place like that. Besides, both you and the govt thugs have no moral right to tell other people what they can put into their own body.
@Riclists the Problem is Obama hates america why else would he give the Mexican cartels guns to kill Americans. while trying to take away the Americans peoples right to keep and bare arms and protect themselves form the Mexican cartels.
@thomaserossi Oh come now. Don't even say that. I've talked to plenty of the people who support Occupy Wall Street and the vast majority of them say that all those small countries had perfectly legitimate revolutions and elections and that America was evil and invaded them with the CIA, blah blah blah. You should know better than to mention communist subterfuge (and the general lack of value for human life that seems inherent with socialism and collectivism).
CAPITALISM was designed only for CORRUPT OPPORTUNISTIC MANIPULATIVE LAZY POLITICIAN. BANKERS. LAWYERS. DRUG LORDS. JUDGES. CRIMINALS. DICTATORS. RULERS. KING. SULTANATE. EMPEROR etc. etc..
HARD WORKING PEACE LOVING HAPPY HONEST SOCIETY were always the slave victim and poorly starve to death. :(
Gary Johnson is the best presidential candidate for the american people. He has the most logical and ethical economic solutions for this nation as a whole. I ask that you at least research him, and if you do not, if I did know you, I'd have to ask, why are you voting when you do not have all the facts? Why vote only for your own sake instead of for the sake of our nation . Take some time and read, and see what else is out there? besides what the media tells you
@dkoribag1 Agreed, but since he isn't corrupt he will never be president. If people like you and I (liberatarians) had any common sense we would become anarchists.
@rumco Ron Paul is a great option. I personaly think Gary is Just as Good if not better in some ways. But anyways, im just getting his name out there so he stands a chance in the furture. I thought maybe thats what this movment was about, but it sure seems to have alot of Paul supporters trying to repress Gary also. Maybe it just human genetics.
@dkoribag1 I like Gary, but at this point, wouldn't you just support Ron Paul? I mean, Gary's unfortunately been shut out. Ron's been fighting far longer and the establishments are finding it harder and harder to shut him out. Let's keep pushing him!
@sonnybrown Seriously, all that guy is gonna do is take away votes from Paul. If it were the usual case of an establishment Republican vs. an establishment Democrat it would be worth it for a libertarian party candidate to run but this time is very different.
@dkoribag1 my vote would go to Ron Paul. Gary is a colorless figure, and although he has similar views as Ron, he has no charisma and therefore no chance of winning.
Johnson is indeed awesome, but Paul has the best shot and is also awesome. I'd love to see them go two terms each as President. Eight years with a libertarian leaning Republican and eight with a Libertarian Republican. They'd be the best 16 years this country has seen since the founding of this nation. Spread the word.
At 1:11, remember people, that Kennedy is so much more than that! .... only to herself, haha.

@xxcrysad3000xx We already have free music. Many artists give their music away for free. What you want to do is remove the right from an artist to charge anything for his or her work. Why not leave that choice in the hands of the musician?
I'm assuming you're talking about illegal downloading here, so let me know if you're talking about something else when you say "free music" -- wouldn't want to go off on a tangent.

@Ralph66 I'm saying its high time the recording industry starts looking beyond its old business model.. post-Napster they fought tooth and nail against digital distribution when they should've been adapting. We've seen chain record shops eat the ma & pa operations, then big box retail eat the mega-chains, then online retailers swallow big box, and now digital distribution is king. I was poking fun at the first post, obviously "free music" is silly--I happen to like paying for what I consume.
xxcrysad3000xx 3 months ago
@xxcrysad3000xx Agreed on that score. Also I think we as a market need to do a little more exploring and seek out the available music outside our comfort zone, and reward those "undiscovered" bands by downloading more of their stuff.
Ralph64 3 months ago
@Ralph64 Then I'd have a lot more selection and the choice of what was good or not rather than what a record label says is good. What do you think 'professional' musicians start as?
hannas1234 3 months ago
@hannas1234 True, in the old system record labels, concert promoters and radio stations controlled what music was heard. But that's changing now, due to the technological innovation someone mentioned. It used to be nearly impossible to self-publish, now anyone can, and get their music heard on YouTube, iTunes, internet radio, blogs... And all for the better. BUT... Let the poor musicians charge 99 cents for a download, willya? They've got to get something for their work.
Ralph64 3 months ago
@Ralph64 I fully support musicians having the choice to charge whatever they see fit for their work, as you put it. I simply don't see a problem with free music.
hannas1234 3 months ago
@hannas1234 Ah, I see. We're in agreement then! Sorry, a lot of times I hear things like "I shouldn't have to pay for this" as an excuse to pirate music or movies. Although movies today... Yeesh!
Ralph64 3 months ago
@Ralph64 ralph. i dunno if u noticed but there are more musicians than ever now( at least musicians releasing music) but no one knows about it. it takes massive resources to get your music to the masses. if you think you can do it single handlely, you're terribly mistaken. 90% of your time would go to marketing instead of actually playing. but i agree let them charge whatever they want, it's just nobodys payin', only kids in the 10-14 year old bracket.

Artist and musicians need to come up with a new business model to make money, other than selling stupid records. Artists already make most of their money from live concerts while they gain popularity by free means. This prohibition won't solve anything, mark my words.

Conservative and libertarian aren't mutually exclusive. As a matter of fact what I consider "true conservatism" is very compatible and complimentary with libertarianism. Why would someone think they have to label themselves one or the other, you can be any combination of the labels, just think for yourself.

The Bushes/Reagan had nothing to do with Vietnam, it was troop initiated/escalated by JFK & LBJ, both Democrats. And I have no idea what "communism" means in a "list of Wars". All Military conflicts started by the listed GOP presidents were the smallest military conflicts in US history. However, each WORLD WAR saw US involvement at the hands of DEMOCRATS.

Viet Nam was started by Democrats Kennedy and Johnson. Let's not forget the Civil War, WWI and WWII. How's your guy Obama doing with Pakistan, Libya and Yemen.

War is used by STATISTS, regardless of party affiliation. It just so happens that the Democratic Party is almost entirely statist.

@KpopManiacSFL Vietnam was largely started and escalated by LBJ, later inherited by Richard M. Nixon. Somalia's intervention was initiated by George H.W. Bush but later president William Jefferson Clinton pulled out after the Blackhawk Down incident. Sometimes one side inherits the other's conflict, but I don't necessarily think that means by default that they don't care.

Gary Johnson is the best presidential candidate for the american people. He has the most logical and ethical economic solutions for this nation as a whole. I ask that you at least research him, and if you do not, if I did know you, I'd have to ask, why are you voting when you do not have all the facts? Why vote only for your own sake instead of for the sake of our nation . Take some time and read, and see what else is out there? besides what the media tells you
