Jim Cornette's Rant (about the right wing - Part 2 of 2)

[NephandiMan]

Yes, Mr. Cornette, but what do you *really* think?

I think we've just found someone to help Keith Olbermann fill some of the empty airtime on Current TV. That would be seven shades of awesome.

[JoeLaTurkeyIII]

Jim Cornette should write Obama's speeches. Or speak at every Democrat convention. Whatever he does, there's massive potential.

[dwmarch]

4:49 "You know Joey Style's balls, you know what they look like? If you rolled Joey Style's balls at a drinking straw it would look like two kernels of corn rolling into a storm drain. That's what it would look like!"

[downwithleetspeak]

What I really like is how Cornette, regardless of what he actually thinks, isn't giving into any silly conspiracy theory nonsense in this emotional monologue. He sticks to information and gives reasonable arguments. He has a good head on his shoulders.

[theDyingWhale]

Cornette VS Styles needs to happen.

[ThaGreatHooDoo]

Jim is awesome! He should get his own show. Much more insightful and entertaining than d-bags like Beck,Limbaugh, Bilo, etc..

[logan48227]

Jim Cornette referencing Bill Maher's informative & entertaining film Religulous is fantastic! Cornette needs to get on somebody's national airwaves with his insightful views.

[jlsr1000]

I've said all these things, just not in the same sentence, or on the same day, for that matter. He's GREAT! Love Jim!

[Keyo717]

Why can't we get Jim on Bill O the Clowns show so he can rip that fuckup a new ass hole. Great job Jim.

[dpman72]

The bad part is... There's only two parts!

[Boomer1949]

I was just directed to this rant from Huffington Post comment section and it's great!! How did I ever miss this? I LOVE IT !!

[Planetwatts]

Never a dull moment with Mr Cornette. XD

[kelso120]

am mad as hell and am not going to take it anymore. brilliant

[ikefootball75]

religulous, great fuckin movie

[MasterAdam100]

Socialism is what got Capitalism off it's ass after the Great Depression and Capitalism said "Thanks for saving America. Now get out you Commie!"

I'd like to see a Cornette vs Beck debate. Spoiler Alert!:Beck will run offstage in tears.

[BootPatrol]

@MasterAdam100 I couldn't agree more, my friend. A debate between Jim Cornette and Beck would be one for the ages.

[BuddhaShiva1]

We all need to respect each other for our religious beliefs, and not impose them upon each other.

[christianwackjob]

Cornette is at worst, entertaining. This wasn't as good as the first when it comes to being accurate, but no biggie. How much religion influenced the wars in the Middle East is arguable. After all, how much has Christianity spread if it really their goal? Nah. The incentive was, as always, more financial than anything else...

Best part overall is saying Rush, Hannity, etc. are heels cutting promos is the best description possible. Too bad no one outside of wrestling would understand why.

[Coldstonechampion]

Fuck you right wing conservative republics you Hypocritical, Fools Gold, Hate Mongering Assholes and horses that your greedy asses road in on

[backwardsmarathon1]

Jim Cornette is pretty cool.

I personnaly agree with everything he said. One thing he mentioned, which I found to be kind of interesting, was how he faults the republicans for standing in obama's way. The obvious counter argument would cite how the left was screaming out against bush, especially nearing the end of his presidency.

It may just be a case of comparing apples with oranges given the two leaders respective track records, but I'm curious to know how Jim Cornette would respond.

[KonChul]

It is like he is speaking right from my mind. I agree with him on everything 100% And thats what i do so go ahead and negative thumb me! I could not care less about the thumb!

[mic231975]

jim cornette fuckin rocks!

its very difficult to find a left wing American,especially one from the south.

[ArrogantCancerian]

no man has ever expressed exactly how i feel with such accuracy

[TraumaER]

He is a fucking legend!

[kelso120]

jim cornette is a legend, comedy gold, he is a new hero of mine, he is a genius.u should check out him going mental on hulk hogan and his hoarse shit lies.

[Airsoftcleaner]

CORNETTE 2012

[Coldstonechampion]

I agree this country on a breeding ground for stupidity, laziness, gluttony,greed, and selfishness. those idiots should know that Christianity is a form of a socialism and the criminals these day are not fucking stupid because most are well educated and manage to slick their way from the law because cop are sometimes not prepare and everybody else does not their fucking better judgement because they all rely on the got damn barriers to critical thinking

[TheSilverPhoenix100]

its funny becasue if you name any or all of the "7 sins" the christian republicans have commited them on a massive level

[TGOx1]

Jimmy Cornette doesn't have to worry about having a heart attack...I would bet a million he has a stroke. LOL Good stuff!

[69hbt]

I've always loved James, he always crossed me as a smart guy, this just proves it...You need you're own political podcast

[aks73]

Fantastic. You can see why Jim isn't wanted in WWE now as it's run by right wing republicans like Vince.

Fuck him and his republican bitch wife too. Jim Cornette is the fucking man!!!!

[Oscy]

So the Republicans are saying Obama will basically destroy the country, end our lives? Well I would define that as two things: 1) Making the world a dangerous place, 2) Having us make less money and/or struggle to support ourselves and family.

So what was Bush doing? :s

[Lurvy1963]

Very wild for a guy who was the infamous manager of a tag team in the NWA during the 1980s called The Midnight Express. I hope Loverboy Dennis Condrey, Beautiful Bobby Eaton, Sweet Stan Lane and the entire TNA roster were listening in on this. Way to go Jim for tackling those right wing assholes of Fox news and corporate America. It seems like these bastards don't want to give Barrack Obama a chance to show what he can do as President of that country.

[johnnyace138]

That was freaking epic. Would love to hear more from this guy. Absolutely right in saying that the Dems need to kick someone in the balls sometimes.

[SemiRagingM8]

Weekly show? Screw that, this should be a daily program!!!

[MikeJames6]

Keith Olbermann is unwatchable. He refuses to have anyone on his show who disagrees with him. Rachel Maddow and Ed Schultz are much better cause they encourage people with differing viewpoints to come on their shows.

[roxannekitty]

I have exactly the same problem with Keith. He's like a Bill Oreilly but on the left haha.

[DemocraticRants]

I completely disagree. Olbermann is at least intelligent and articulate, and truthful. No way is he the left's O'Reilly.

[roxannekitty]

I just meant as far as being an asshole to supposedly win an argument. I can agree that he seems more intelligent haha.

[Lightren]

the only thing thats the same is the both yell but olbermann yells at legit things

[newfrickinshow]

@roxannekitty

Olbermann are completely different because I've seen Keith get things wrong and actually make retractions and admit to it on air. I've seen O'Reilly get things wrong and start screaming down anyone who pointed his crap out. I used to watch both shows every day. It was him doing that with his coverage of the Shawn Hornbeck kidnapping that got me to turn him off. Google "Shawn Hornbeck Bill Oreilly" if you don't know the story, it's fucking disgusting.

[Seldona]

Brilliant. One of the best rants ever, and I have never watched a single episode of wrestling.

Someone should write this up on Wikipedia as the definition for teabagger. Fucking idiots.

lol

[ProfGlitch]

hahahaha.

i love it. its as if cornette is calling him out, similar to a wrestling callout. this is great.

[RyDawg084]

wow..that was awesome..I agree this guy would be great on the radio or tv..give the repubs a run for there money... I can't last 5 minutes listening to conservative radio without laughing or getting mad and ripping the radio out of the wall.

[Tazdvs1394]

if he ran for president i would vote for him

[HorrorUniverse]

Jesse Ventura For Pes And Cornette For Vice Pres

[Airsoftcleaner]

I like that ticket

[TheDalinkwent]

Jim Cornette said it best, if I have to give goverment all my tax money, why shouldn't they do somthing for me.

[TheGreatLyger]

epic cornette rant!!

the guy is a ball buster!

[DemocraticRants]

Thank you guys for listening to this. It's obvious from the Views that most people aren't listening to Part 2, and it's just as good as Part 1, with some really great lines.

[notcaptainamerica]

I have been a total mark(wrestling term for fan) for Cornette since I was about 10 years old. Now, more than ever before.

[swivelhipsmcgee1]

democrats are to wishy washy they need to kick someone in the balls every once in a while. that is epic.

[buckeyefan05]

Hell yeah! Every Jim Cornette said what every Liberal feels everyday about the Democratic Party.

[badtown88]

Tom Tancredo sounds like a wrestling name haha

[Shahidah58]

Tell the truth.

[OaktownABQ]

Jim Cornette, I don't live in Kentucky, but if you ran for the US senate from the state of KY, I would move there just so I could vote for you!

[JackMcQuack]

Don't worry!  If you can't move here, *I'm* all ready here, and *I'd* vote for him.

[GstateBALLER925]

lol i loved his interpretation of joey styles' balls.

[psychawareness]

This guy has the potential to be the first very successful liberal talk radio host.

[DemocraticRants]

I wish, though I'd prefer television. That'd be great. If he ever gets tired of wrestling he has a fantastic 2nd career potential waiting for him.

I'm still bitterly disappointed that none of the liberal talk/news shows gave him the time of day. He would have been, could still be, a tremendous ratings-booster.

[ia74me]

That's not a bad idea! I'd even pay to listen to him on Satelite radio.

[randycash39]

this dude if fucking awesome!

[frankfurter20]

I'M MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GONNA TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!!!

(this was hard to type with my head out the window, but it needs to be said.)

[sk03062]

Love it, love it, love it.

[nashadoe]

Please make a Facebook page for this rant as well.

[xenussister]

Ha, there is one now. Check the info section for the url.

[stuthehistoryguy]

"Republicans drove the country into the ditch, and now they're complaining about the cost of the tow truck."

Amen.

[Detbasketball13]

cornettte cornette cornette hooraaah!!

[jeevesosiris]

I'm mad as hell Jim!

Fantastic stuff.

[koalalauncher]

Put this guy on MSNBC. He would kick every right wing idiots ass who challenged him.

[badtown88]

Haha, I know! A Jim Cornette Show would possibly be the greatest thing in television history. What a guy.

[DemocraticRants]

I agree. Over the past few weeks, when the Republicans/right-wingers do stupid things, I find myself thinking "Man, I'd love to hear Cornette's take on that."

Who doesn't want to hear exactly what Cornette thinks of Sarah Palin? Or Pat Buchanan?

[TheCSMman]

just email his site or email whos slamming who and he might reply.

[curtrob]

man these former wrestlers do not hold anyting back do they, LOL first Jesse Ventura and now Mr Cornette. These guys are on the money with these knuckle headed republicans. Dam right Jim tell us how u REALLY feel LMAO

[jedi1josh]

Great stuff!

[druski1784]

I thin Cornette should have his own show on a Major Network i would watch everyday.

[joespeed87]

I wish that Obama would hire Cornette,so he can tell the Republicans how we feel about them. The people need Cornette-now!!!!!

[SimonPeter168]

yeah cornette would be an awesome white house press secretary...no disrespect to mr gibbs.

[quinn2469]

Jim Cornette pretty much sums up everything I've felt in both this and part 1. Excellent.

[HAFFBAKED]

WOW I LOVE THIS GUY

[rdb7878]

I consider myself a pretty well read and informed guy. I'm a liberal and democrat and that was simply brilliant. I am blown away. That was one of the best things I've ever heard.

[fugaziuk]

i loved cornette before this now i love him even more awesome rant

[beeshor1]

This is great stuff! This guy Cornette is now one of my heroes. I couldn't have said any of this any better myself and I fancy myself a pretty good talker. Again, this is great stuff.

[3vv599yp3t]

I knew that there was something that I liked about Jim Cornette.

[Trollmaster21]

He's so gotta do talk radio on this.

[Bullittproof79]

Hey, Jones Radio Network? Air America? You guys hearing this?

And he takes on one of my least-favorite people of all time, Tom Tancredo. Even better!

Awesome clip, highly recommended.

[EvilDescends]

that was a great speech

[taza7]

Hell yea! that was fucking amazing.

[TheCSMman]

Republicans are just crying and pissing that they aren`t in the white house no more.I picture Bush pointing a gun to his head when Obama is declared the greatest man on earth by TIME or something.

[badtown88]

Republicans are the scum of the earth.

[yohaneuano4]

Isn't 2:13 a reference to the film Network? Great film, great rant

[EnhancementSmoker]

i love this guy...

[jesters16]

WOW, Great rant.

[Shorle]

So impressed with Cornette. I've NEVER been a wrestling fan, but this guy has a hell of a brain between his ears.

[htruman]

That was great.

[turboboy68]

I have listen to part 1 and 2 of this rant and all i can say is Jim Cornrtte is now one of my heros. He has hit the nail right on the head perfectly. This man needs to have his own radio show to counter some of these asshole republicans that hog the airwaves. GO JIM GO!!

[jimmychipper]

wa2k99? the vast majority of America? Really? The entire US, except for the southeast is no longer right leaning. Remember the elections in 06, and 08. George W did the impossible---he undid the Reagan revolution. Go pound sand and get some butter and jelly for all you and the rest of the "Teabaggin" losers...cause you cross burning, knuckle dragging , Bible thumping nitwit Repubs are TOAST. It's over pal--dig it. Go buy and gun and bury it in your redneck ass backyard. LOSER ! ! HA HA HA HA

[GeographyGeo]

Please give this guy a radio show!!!! I'll pay to listen to him any day!!!

[PoliticalJunkie2036]

Damn right!

[badtown88]

This guy is amazing.  I agree.

[ElizabeththeGreat1]

I have a new found respect for Wrestlers too! What a great rant! He's absolutely correct!

[wa2k99]

An absolute fool. Great when he talks about wrestling, but what in the world qualifies to him to bash the vast majority of America? What does he know about politics and religion. Obviously nothing.

[MusicEcto]

More than you, obviously.

[ElizabeththeGreat1]

What rock are you under? "The vast majority of America"!?! Where were you the last two years! The vast majority of America voted the neo-cons OUT!

[ddrock23]

He's not bashing the majority of Americans. Just the dumb ones.

[jake94]

It's nice to know that not everyone in the wrestling business is a right wing nutcase.

[cecinid]

I have a newfound respect for Pro Wrestlers...this guy is not only CORRECT, he's FUNNY...(Applause!!!)

[SharyninATL]

I have LONG said that we (libs) need a Karl Rove, Rush Limbaugh and others like them of our own. We all hate those guys but let's face it, they are powerful, mean and know the game. Please, please give this man his own talk show.

[bancoran]

I agree, we libs have been too concerned with not hurting peoples' feelings and trying to bend over backwards to seem "fair and balanced" every time the arse-conservative flings mud at us. I hate to say this, but the Pubbies are organized and focused, qualities we need to work on. Pick a few super-important topics, such as the economy or fixing this Iraq mess, and don't get sidetracked by minor issues just to look "all-inclusive."

[pitbullgirl65]

I agree too. We need to get rid of the pearl clutchers, and wish washy libs. The Bush admin. would have not gotten as far as they did without the colusion of the Dems.

[wiskawind]

I like my new President, as Obama even includes non-believers as Americans. I like that and I can't remember any President ever mentioning or including non-believers in a speech! (smile)

Its nice to have a President that respects everyone, even those who are not infected with sheepleitis! LOL

[danonchalant1]

This was righteous! The Midnight Express is rockin' & rollin' again! Cornette needs a prime time slot!

[betterpresident09]

Man that felt good, I wish I could rant like that. He covered everything. I just hope that President Obama will never disappoint him though. But he was right about EVERYTHING!!

[munteen]

This guy needs his own show. He's the man !!!! He needs to be the voice of the liberal democratic party. Fuck the republicans they ruined the world !!!!

[EternalPhoenix2183]

God please let me live till 2012. So I can see the state of GOP just CRUMBLE to Obama's AWESOMENESS.

[sbdante]

LOL @ 0:28

Oh the irony!

[DemocraticRants]

There's a difference between a liberal letting off steam (note how surprised his host is at this rant) and the constant ranting, day after day, of Hannity, Limbaugh, Beck, et al.

We deserve our own.

[mnnorthstar01]

Um, that's an interesting rationalization you have there. Hey, whatever works for ya.

Cornette does have some anger issues, though. The YouTube video of him cursing out some female Dairy Queen employee is a classic. The guy likes saying the c-word a lot, apparently.

[DemocraticRants]

The difference between Democrat lies and Republican lies is the size of the body count. George W. Bush's lies have cost thousands of American lives and as many as a million Iraqi ones.

[mnnorthstar01]

Non sequitur.

[DemocraticRants]

"You use that word. I do not think it means what you think it means". George W. Bush lied about Iraq having weapons of mass destruction in a State of the Union speech. This has caused the deaths of thousands of US service men and women, and as many as a million Iraqi men, women and children. Saddam was an oppressive dictator, but on the whole the dead would rather be alive.

[mnnorthstar01]

A non sequitur is a logical fallacy in which one makes a statement that does not follow logically from what preceded it. Your comment about political lies didn't logically follow the preceding comments. It was a non sequitur.

[DemocraticRants]

Not at all. The topic was "political lies". Any lie any President of the United States may have ever made, at any point in the history of the United States pales in comparison to the lie George W. Bush told to get us into this war with Iraq.

If you were honest with yourself, you'd admit it.

[mnnorthstar01]

Sorry, but you're wrong. Look at the preceding comments. You made a comment about "a liberal letting off steam" and I responded by saying your comment was "an interesting rationalization". You, in turn, responded to me by saying there was a "difference between Democrat lies and Republican lies". Your response was a logical fallacy called a non sequitur, which is latin for "it does not follow". What you said didn't logically follow what I said. Non sequitur.

[upabittoolate]

genius, a non sequitir is not a logical fallacy. it's not a normal or an abnormal type. i don't expect you to understand anything if you don't get when to use that term.

[LOLMAN22]

I want MORE!!!

[mnnorthstar01]

The most ironic part is where Cornette accuses Limbaugh and Hannity of being angry. Clearly, James E. isn't very self-aware. It's still entertaining, though.

[DemocraticRants]

Jim Cornette is a PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING MANAGER. Ever seen Professional Wrestling? This is not yelling for a Professional Wrestling Manager. This is relatively restrained.

Since when are unabashed liberals not allowed to be as strident as conservatives? Keith Olbermann doesn't get anywhere near this worked up, his usual rant level is "cold fury" with a helping of "sardonic politeness".

Michael Moore and Randi Rhodes are closer, but nothing like Limbaugh.

[mnnorthstar01]

It was my understanding that Cornette wasn't cutting a promo here, rather, he was just being himself and ranting about something he felt passionately about.

Of course, liberals can be as strident as they want but, if you are, you can't really complain about "angry" conservatives (like James E. did). Red-faced anger is completely bipartisan. Neither side has the high ground.

[xenussister]

Uh yeah, we can complain. Right-wing rabble rousers lie and inflate and lie some more and make things up, just to get their base riled up, with sometimes deadly consequences. They don't care if what they say is true or considered, their only reason for being is shock jocking, but the people who listen and believe everything they say are woefully ignorant and uninformed.

Most liberals get their news from several different sources. We know Cornette is telling the truth and that's why he's angry.

[xenussister]

Ok, except for that bit about the Sharon Tate murders. There was only one person trying to prosecute Manson, and that was Vincent Bugliosi, and there were, god, I don't know how many, a LOT, trying to keep Obama from being elected, but that was an analogy on the fly and I'll give Cornette that one.

I'm extremely disappointed that this hasn't gone viral.

[DoinkTheClown]

Haha, you haven't heard Jim Cornette talk... this is nothing for him.

[Lungyao1]

I've just subscribed!

[drtobiasfunke]

Cornette win! lolamirite?

[homicidemanex]

Shades of Adam Carrolla

[DemocraticRants]

Possibly, but I suspect that it is Adam Corrolla who has modeled his persona on professional wrestling managers.

[billthebutcher2]

lol awesome

[jerry6d]

FAVORITED. That's how you RANT

[marchetta67]

Absolute amazing rant! Hit a homerun on every point. He needs a show on MSNBC or radio!

[dc2001]

I love this guy.

[starkweather444]

I would listen to Cornette on the radio, he just destroyed the right wing nutjobs. Better than anyone I have heard so far.

[homicidemanex]

check out adam carrolla

[SnowboarderBo]

10/10! Perfect textbook rant! Awesome! Someone give this guy a radio show! A TV show! His ratings would be 4x Limbaugh's.  AMAZING rant!
