  • If video games were banned, I would most likely be in jail for like God knows how many time and/or become a games dealer. Also there will be more Asian immigrants thinking that coming to a country where video games is banned will stop their children from playing video games.

  • The war on video games you are joking about is actually happening in Germany. Guess who is in for it: The Christian Democratic Union (CDU = our GOP equivalent). Address the cause of the problem? Hell no, just forbid everything that can be fun because it can be abused until we have nothing left but Jesus to have fun with, because you can't abuse him, of course! It is so ridiculous, I feel ashamed for my country. Just another example why I want to be an American.

  • I'm all for separation of church and state, but as a spiritual seeker I believe that prayer and meditation can and will strengthen our relationship with God, the source of all creativity and knowledge, and from that guidance and intuition will come enlightened policy making :)

  • and anyone suffering from cancer should have free health care! why the hell not - these people deserve to survive and live their lives!!

  • as a girl, I cant help but think when watching Ana Kasparian that it is time for her to change her hair style!!!! :-/ #justsaying

  • Comment removed

  • Gee we don't need politicians anymore, Jesus is running things now, at least in TX...Rich Perry is a total ASSHOLE!

  • Cenk looks funny =)

  • "I can't do my job so lets close our eyes talk to ourselves and do nothing about the problem" --Rick Perry

    Why is he waiting so long to fix the problem if prayer did work? Why not pray now fix now? Just a bunch of bull shit posturing.

  • Cenk is my favorite liberal sources of information (second being Olbermann). Cenk doesn't distort facts, has an insightful take on subjects, and is amusing. Being an unemployed PoliSci grad i started a blog giving a liberal take on current events while trying to be amusing at the same time. While I admit that I am not in the same league as Cenk, I believe that people who enjoy the young turks would enjoy my writing. Comments and critique are very welcome

  • Anyone else think that C.L. Jackson sounds like Herbert the Pervert?

  • rick perry sucks at tying a tie. 

  • @MrEricrockinout looool! i had to go back n look.. so funny, you're right he does suck at tying ties lol

  • Wow. Fuck Mexicans and their drug cartels.

  • I see we have a lot TEAPARTY HOBBITS here,Thanks John McCain for the new and proper name for this cult that you presented on the senate floor.

  • lets pray for the economy hahaha americans lol

  • Let's not laugh yet...We Elected "W" didn't we? I hope he does run. It will be a cakewalk for Pres. Obama.

  • People bash china for sick and crazy people for some reason the only reason china has more sick crazy people is because they have more people derp. The ratio of crazy people in america and asia are the same. Btw I rather have a country where some weird people live then live in a country with a majority of idiots.

  • 10000 dollars for video games I can get golden eye 007 for 20 bucks online holy jeebus not even world of war craft subscribtion is that much. That story was obviously twisted somehow.

  • The whole rest of the world is baffled by our stupidity...AGAIN. Can we get our fucking shit together?! We need an organized, aggressive left....not the bunch of pussies and traitors with the "D" next to their name.

  • loser socialist turks, whimps..

  • @1900zack "loser socialist turks, whimps.." Great comment!  Is that from your doctoral dissertation?

  • I thought there was a one-child law in China.

  • Lmao at guys on the videogames story, EVERYBODY WINS!

  • 19:10 Fucking shut the fuck up

  • jesus is gnarly. whether you know him or not, his existence is basically undisputed. whether or not you believe he was the son of God or was crucified is something to be decided on an individual basis. as a christian, i believe what the bible says about him even though the bible has been handled, edited, kept away from the common man by the catholic church. i think the catholic church is a perversion. i believe a leftist philosophy is more in line with true christianity. jesus is gnarly.

  • I blame the Christians for the economy....they must be praying for help....did God say no! Oh yeah, ya cant cherry pick this shit....apparently he spoke to Bush once, maybe he knows. Oops, he's the sorry bastard that got this whole thing going.

  • RICK THE DICK PERRY A CORPORATE JOKE SUPPORTED BY BOHEMIAN GROVE FAGS! RICK GREW UP WITH TV=DALLAS HE IS JR:

  • "And you can always follow me on Tweeter." LOL

  • how can you make fun of rick perry when he has half the job growth of the nation in the most conservative state texas when california is a crap hole under liberal rule

  • @mlbbaseball5 where are you getting your numbers. Just like republicans to shove the blame on liberals for shit they've done - how long was Schwarzenegger in office? and how long ago was that?

  • its not addiction, they were evil people, they could stop playing, theres no painful withdrawal or chemical dependency there is only urge to continue your hobby like in anny other hobby, but beleive me they could have took a brake conserve some money and play a bit again . they just didnt love theyre children and were evil people, im pretty sure they sold theyre daughter for the internet cafee money but he boys after that were just profiting regardles of theatehr parents play games or not

  • You guys live in one fucked up country

  • Alan Greyson, Anthony Weiner if you are not a corporate shill you will get the boot sooner or later...

  • Haha, and i think this is the best......

    "that's why they are not fighting against Obama"

    "that's why they are not buying baga sobha"

  • Wow. as i keep watching the video i found this translation hilarious.

    you should watch this again and pay attention to the translation and its funny mistakes

  • Who is this morron who translated it so horribily?

  • i believe in God and I support nearly 99% of what is said on this show (though i only watch the political commentary, not the social stuff). it's too bad to me to see other viewers so hateful of religion. they are just gaining enemies, unnecessarily.

  • @sleepyfish the religious started the hate... we're on the defensive

  • @sleepyfish You name something else that advocates slavery, racism, murder, fear mongering, intolerableness and prejudice towards anybody "different" and we'll all start taking it easy on religion and hate that thing.

  • $10 says the republicans blame Obama for the jobs lost from all these cuts.

  • @LogicBeforeNorms only $10?

    remortgage your house and you will be WINNING! :-)

    we all know that the republicans will blame Obama

  • give a man a fish he'll eat for a day, teach a man to fish he'll eat forever ...let a man pray for a fish he will die of starvation

  • If they were good at gaming they could actually make money at it and wouldn't have to sell their kids.

  • Ana is doing Jesus.

  • @SaleckTheDragon is a diminutive of Poncho which is derivative of his name Alfonso, like Dick is to Richard

  • Your laugh and smile deserves you a thumbs up.

  • @OrangeSaint420 no political stories are cenk's job. He is the main host

  • im hoping Hillary challenges Obama....shes got balls...

  • Under Rick Perry's leadership texas has had roughly half of all job growth in the united states

  • @ahachie you just gained like 920390239023909329093090392903­929039029903 life enemies.

  • @ahachie stfu. Ana is smart and attractive. She's a great add to the show.

  • @dfg93353 she might be hott bout shes not really smart. Thats why she isnt on any political stories

  • What the hell are they smoking down in Texas...

  • Man, that old man 2:30 sounds so much like Ron Paul.

  • Holy shit, 500 dollars? Why would there be no market? Just feed and water it and in a few years your investment becomes an infinite source of delicious loli. I wanna buy a harem at that price.

  • I would have grabbed that little prick by his fro and knocked his fucking teeth out.

  • WoW the world is in shit when the US is over run by fundamentalism.

  • Ana I Love you! will you marry me?

  • what was that? how much does ana care about the science? Ana gettin' some turk in her I like it!!!

  • 1:50

    I was eating & nearly choked on my food. Ended up spitting most out from the laughter. Damn you Cenk!!!

  • Go Ana! :-)

  • Dear American People,

    WE HATE YOU!!!

    Love,

    The American Government

  • I'am from texas, but OMG this guy Ricky Perry , is really dumb. Don't vote for this dumb ass. He cut funding for education. Now he wants to do it nation wide. 

  • Jesus is cute!

  • 11:54 is a skewed bias stat..... simply because you didnt show that 42% say not friendly enough.... i think the media is to soft on politicians they agree with.... where as fox is to hard on dems with decent ideas

  • Two hands working gets more done than a thousand hands clasped in prayer. Dunno who said it, but it's damn true!

  • @FluffRecordings hahaha like Rick Perry ! hahahaha we do NOT Need him as the President of united states!

  • WHERE THE @#$% IS MY POLITICAL THRILLER? :D

  • Damn....ANA STRAIGHT WENT OFF!! You "GO" Ana...Treat those doggone workers and stop playin'

  • 0:50 *bush hand/shoulder gesture* "Like JESUS did!"

  • I want to work for the young turks

  • Lowering taxes does NOT create jobs, it gives corporations the possibility to outsource even more. The Bush tax cuts and two expensive wars have given America a gigantic debt, and it is about to lose its AAA rating. That is because of people like Bachmann...(great comment from another video)

  • IS HIS NAME MR TALMUD?

  • I too am worried about the government's involvement in the essentially spiritual realm of THE FUCKING ECONOMY.

  • i think this is all penis....

  • I suspect the poor fast about 3 days/week and pray often...

  • @young turk wAS DA NAME OF DA KAHSARS INFILTRATING TURKEY ONCE AFTER DA FIRST

    IM CONECTING DA DOTS HERE

  • @outahnational1 AFTER DA FIRST WORLDWAR KAHSARS INFILTRATING TURKEY WAS CALLED YOUNG TURKS I SMELL A ROTTEN RAT HERE

  • @outahnational1 Connecting the dots? You're way short on ink. The original Young Turks were groups of progressives who opposed the monarchy of the Ottoman Empire.

  • As a liberal Texan, I apologize for my governor's incredible stupidity.

    If you want to have a prayer meeting, that is perfectly fine. I don't think it'll DO anything, but at least it means you care somewhat, for what it's worth. But, do it at a church and don't bring politics in it.

  • Goof ball? No, to me, he looks very, very dangerous. His eyes are tormented and seeing that, at least, I can tell that he is a very angry man; not one to infuriate. He reminds me more of Herrod....than the "Messiah".

  • sorry cenk,its true jesus the man/myth is far better than the majority of the conservatives,he's not all that he is cracked up to be.After all he did say all of the old testament laws still need to be followedso he didn't fix any of the disgusting n ridiculous rules,but lets not forget he was an apocalyptic preacher who thought he was the one and only savior for humanity(pretty humble if you ask me).and the whole idea that you can shed responsibility for anything just by accepting him= immoral.

  • I love Costco, not only because they're lib, but because they've been SO good to me as a customer.

  • I don't think Gov. Perry knows what moral relativism is. He almost stumbled on those words as they flashed by on the teleprompter.

  • @Foreverclever87 that caught me off guard too xD

  • @Humaninsoul psh.. the guys only get a blowjob? -_- i would like a spa treatment, scented oil, and a shopping spree!

  • Reformed in a Mexican jail? Yeah right. That kid will get released and picked up by his cartel buddies upon checkout.

  • Don't joke about banning games Cenk, there are some people stupid enough to try it.

  • That prayerfest thing is the worst. First off: ignorance and corruption concerning economic efficiency IS ENTIRELY a spiritual matter. Second: praying for a higher power to empathize with a bunch of corrupt cheating bastards accomplishes nothing and you will receive no sympathy from any virtuous person. Third: instead of some arrogant, esoteric, obscure begging ritual, try actually contemplating the meaning of life and lack of sanity in the way our current american economy fails to operate.

  • Why don't you just chase fucking rainbows for fucking leprechaun gold you fucking morons?

  • rick perry reminds me of a "dumber" bush...

  • @osp80  In all fairness, Rick Perry is literally a bush....

  • The Problem with addiction is that EVERYTHING is addictive, if left to consume to the point of destructive, immoral, or unlawful tendencies 'tword oneself or others. An addict myself, I would love nothing more then to have my addiction banned, Its the easy way out. But it is not fair to those that do not let my addiction ruin them. If something must be banned, Lets not make it thing to thing, let it be from person to thing. Where in the person gets the help they need w/o punishing every1 else

  • @cmills1988 +1 guy who doesn't care

  • @Humaninsoul Thank you. God bless Jon Stewart and Anthony Weiner.

  • This is evil. No government official should be representing cultism. Separation of church and state is crucial.

  • The fact that you Americans won't pay for the health care of your own rescue workers is fucked. In Every civilized country, their health care is covered with tax revenues, end of story.

    Americans are a barbaric, despicable people.

  • sooo, Cenk, you disagree with adoption? we dont know who they sold the kids too just as you dont know who are the foster parents who adopt kids. and the videogaming angle? they were probably seen at an internet cafe a few times, boom instant addicts. i wonder which news agency is trying to bump up their ratings.

  • all i got say is CENK for president

  • is it me or is the black guy at 3:16 sound like eore from winny the pooh

  • 3 years for killing 4 guys. And in another story a woman gets 3 years for jaywalking

  • @Humaninsoul I love how a proper blowjob is equivalent to full day spa, a good fucking AND a shopping spree XD

  • "That's a Texas-sized goofball." - great quote from Cenk.

  • Scew the parents and their video games, what about the people who BOUGHT the children? Seems like TYT was focused on the video game element of the story rather, than the children are now pawns in human trafficking.

  • cenk

    you ever been to home depot or costco for that matter?

    they are not substitutes

    lol

  • James 2 15If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, 16And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?

  • sorry but the fuel economy standards are a bit of a joke. thats just an excuse to allow big oil to ass fuck us on prices......

  • @TheYoungTurks and your bogus claim that you had to leave msnbc because you were hard on President Obama is not only disingenuous,but presposterous. msnbc tries to undermine President Obama all day with their distortions of who his base is. and his base isn't white liberals like you,and msnbc represent.

  • A politician calling for prayer to solve social problems is like an engineer begging a pumpkin to fix broken airplanes.

  • Speaking of politics and Jesus. Does anyone rember that republican who was being interviewed and they bring up Jesus' beliefs on helping the poor and he responds with something to the effect of we don't listen to Jesus on everything or something like that...Anyone remember what story that was from or who it was?

  • I personally love that I get to see these Republican paid ads, so all their propaganda goes to waste on people who can thing for their selves. And the Obama dancing one is mildly entertaining.

  • @TheYoungTurks Do you have a podcast?

  • 06:51 not buying baga sobha.

    Those bastards.

  • 500 dollars for a girl, pretty sure she isnt going to be someones daughter. She will end up in the sex trade for sure.

  • Hmmm...I guess 1012 is when the world ends.

    Well, at least the part of the world inhabited by Americans.

  • Why do christian's all ways "say" to be like Jesse'es but when it comes down to it thy them self's never do what thy say!!!!!! HYPOCRISY 101!!!!!!!

  • you should be smart and sell hair to fund game addiction like me. DUH!

  • loved the part around minute 27 haha xD

  • 27:00 'That's such a good idea!' what an orgasmic battle cry! Yummy.

  • 'That's such a good idea!', wow that was orgasmic. Yum.

  • any thing and everything is addicted i dont care if your joking but fuck you, your so fucking unintelligent its so insane that such a smart group are SO FUCKING STUPID video games are no more addicting then a tv show or a movie there is nothing in a video game that can cause a chemical addiction it releases the same chemicals in your brain as sports aka adrenaline and the chemical that makes you happy

  • @Dasconscripts Just because there's no chemical substance that can cause an addiction doesn't mean the positive feedback you get from it can't be addicting. See: gambling addiction.

  • @PedanticPig see sports addiction see tv addiction see reading addiction, gaming is NO MORE HARMFUL THEN SPORTS, READING TV MOVIE WATCHING there is NO SCIENTIFIC STUDY UNDER ENOUGH SCRUTINY THAT CAN SHOW THOSE RESULTS

  • @Dasconscripts Hey, I'm not saying gaming is in itself harmful - I'm a gamer myself. But to say that an addiction cannot occur because there isn't an addictive chemical involved is ignorant to the varying causes of an addiction. Games might have a higher chance of something like that happening as opposed to TV or Sports considering there's more of an interactive element, similar to gambling, which has been documented as being addictive in some cases.

  • What is wrong with the Republicans? Bush ran on a Family Values theme that included being good Christians. Prayer is not the answer!

  • they should give all the 911 1st responders the same healthcare as active duty millitary. 

  • When one of these prayer sessions ever solved anything?!

  • why cant we just stop bombing everyone... look im not a lib i was raised republican but i mean regan was far right for his time but today the gop would call him communist. oddly the dems are right behind the gop. theres no other side except in the far fringe left which nobody listens to. from what i can tell there is only 1 party these days. arguing about politics is like arguing about pro wrestling.

  • Ha ha CENKKKK!!!! so great to hear your voice this early in the day. :)

  • If not now...when?

  • two hands working are more useful than a thousand clasped in prayer

  • I see my governor one more time doing one more stupid thing...

  • War on videogames = best idea ever

    Don´t sell your kinds = worst advice ever

  • isn't that how orphanages work?

  • How mad are these guys... Listen There is no such thing as god!  Talking about god shows that you are stu-pid!

    Besides why do right wingers always tend to be the ONE religion that says being rich is WRONG! lol!!!

  • @TheYoungTurks so now you're hyping the thought Al sharpton is a msnbc,cause of "Affirmative Action"?? and it doesn't matter if "the daily beast" was the originator, you promoted it. You're just proven some of us point about you progressives. All about "white institutional supremacy".

  • Voters need to start taking things PERSONALLY with regards to the decisions that congress makes. None of this "its just business" bullshit.

  • @Humaninsoul LMAO. best comment ive seen in months

  • <3 the sarcasm. you gotta be sarcastic if anything outside the studio is governed and controled by mostly morons. Ban video games, vote for Governor Jack Thompson. I love the idea... cept, I'm a gamer. Banning drugs was just as stupid. Here in the Netherlands it not a problem at all.

    Healthcare for first responders? are you nuts, first of all, your healthcare system is shaky at best, but denying first responders healthcare? that motivated people the help 'next time' doesn't it?

    Gees.

    Good show

  • It surprised me people still don't understand that new videos on youtube have viewer lag. Thats why you get the same view numbers on the new videos.

  • war on video games rofl..man that would be crazy.

  • When the hell is Cenk gonna get on shows with Stewart, Colbert, & Maher? He needs to get them to see the full scope of the problem. Once they get on the case, we've got a shot at getting the word out.

  • @MyTemporaryAccount88 great idea! he should!

  • Comment removed

  • how the hell does this only have 4 views with 44 comments? my maths don't work so good.

  • @cmills1988 + 1 dumb ass named cmills1988

  • man you can hate Texas and Rick Perry but there a reason why were doing better than most states. of course when ppl talk about god everyone gets offended. but if it was allah no one would care

  • @ALEWAR0311 actually people are always talking about islam and allah, and caring too much, and being racists, and prejudice, all the time, all over U.S media. Please. Get fucking real.

  • i have done no research what so ever to back this up but i heard that the epa /fema set up shop in the wtc complex on 9/10/01 after dark and that the "the air is safe to breath" was in terms of bio and chemical warfare which espestice is by far not high on the list considering how much you need to effect a death 5-10 years later.

  • you could go to rona instead of home depot, probably more appropriate

    similar price range, though its really really hard to find stuff, and displays are often messy.

  • "This opium you feed your people, so that, drugged, they do not feel their hurts, inflicted by you."

  • 17': if another 9/11 happens, everyone should just run and not help even if you are a firefighter.... because your choice is between dying of cancer without any treatment or, at worst, just get fired for doing nothing.

    I am serious.

  • Prayer in fixing the country is as effective as "praying the gay away".

    Screw that, get off your lazy asses and DO something. Quit using your religion as a failed crutch.

  • wtf.. why werent they given protective masks in the first place

  • Hats off to you Ana...well said.

  • You are number 4. Look out for alien killers.

  • I'm so sick of the right wing political ads, obviously paid for by rich corporations that You Tube is playing before any political video. I mean, how many of them are there? Is there anyone making ads for the "don't cut medicare" and "tax the rich" stance? Oh wait, there is no money in making those ads. Sick.

  • @Phloid82 in canada it was our far far left party NDP every add was NDP EVERY AD i feel bad for you guys i guess your dems are so weak they cant even buy that much XD dam see ya america have a nice fall

  • @Phloid82 I want U.S. IP Adress so i can see those add too:D I know its wrong"D

  • @Phloid82 Adblock plus yo

  • @Phloid82 That's why I use Adblock and Flashblock. I've all but forgotten this website has adverts at all.

  • @Phloid82 we have to fight back!

  • I'm here in Austin and I can't stand this a-hole! He broke us and now he wants gawd to fix everything! Total embrassment!!! Did I say EMBARASSMENT!

  • Did "hair" Perry just ask all those fat Texans to fast for a day, as in not eating anything? You're kidding, right?
