If you're worried about press now, why couldn't they come in for the Democrat-only meetings as promised by the "most ethical and open Congress in history"? At least he's out of job soon...
he is so right.. the press is a tabloid press now since it was bought by the corporates the US doesn't have a free press..that is one reason why there are so many dumb people in this country..they get corporate propaganda instead of facts
Although I do agree with the general message of what Patrick Kennedy is saying, hearing him scream unintelligibly like that is severely uncomfortable, and slightly physically painful.
Hey Pat... I agree with you on the Iraq War, and about the media, but damn... Calm down bro.
Hay Cisco I have something for you to learn #1 You are one stuped ass hole #2America is the reason you are able to even use a computer and speak freely #3 if your not going to stand behind us then please stand in front so we can run your sorry ass over #4 you say no government will stand in the eye's of YHWH and you call us Righteous you are one stuped person grow a pair and start being a man and not a little girl tough guy.
Yes that is indeed the correct spelling of fuck. See you're getting the hang of it. Although it should be "it's" with an apostrophe. "Its" is the possessive form and does not mean "It is" as I'm sure you intended.

ANOTHER PIECE OF SHIT KENNEDY... that needs to >>>>GOOOOOOO..... I have seen DRUNKS behave better in BIKER BARS.... I guess thats where he was before he came in that day. He could not pass the BAAAHHHHHRRRR Ugly fucking Mass piece of sheit. why are u in RI anyway ?? MASS ran out of Rep and Sen Seats ?? Can the good people of RI PLEASE REMOVE this piece of Garbage already..
jensen1901@ bullshit, this dumbass would sell out his country for a media shot quicker than you could pick your ass... like all kennedys..media hoes.. all talk no substance
Get the fuck out of my country you piece of shit. This man is a patriot and you are not. He hates the media and unlike a real media whore like John McCain, Patrick turns down interview requests all the time.
jensen1901@ patriot my ass.. he is a media hoe just like all kennedys and couldnt give a shit about you or the american people (unless hes on camera). as for john mccain he is in the same boat as the kennedys.., all media hoes who would sell this country into bankruptcy and then act as if we (the people) brought it on ourselves... stop drinking the democrat/liberal koolaid. and just because someone disagrees with you, dont get your panties in an uproar.. i served this country for 20 yrs, did you

redmrlove13, you apparently don't speak to many Europeans. Western Europeans know more about U.S. geography and politics than many Americans. All you need to do is move overseas for a couple years, then you may just come back with more perspective and wonder why we as Americans allow such a big percentage of our citizens to look and act so dumb. That's the real crime of America.
Gimmey, there's a reason why America is home to 80 percent of the top Universities in the world. Do some research and get back to me and don't delude yourself into thinking that you can condescend to me simply because I am American.
Maybe it's because you Demo's spent eight years not giving a rat's ass about the sacrifices our troops make for us, and let scum like Murtha demean them.
I wouldn't show up to hear what your elitist punk ass has to say on the matter either.
you know, its not like if america withdrew its army you'd have iraq invading usa, or afghanistan invading the us.
i think the country should work just as hard as their troops do to get them out of harms way as the troops do to fight for their country. they've been down in iraq for too long, neither the iraqis or the troops arent benifiting at this point.
calm and peaceful. i like ur message as well. the world is too small now, all this bogus war mongering and diplomatic horsesh!t has to end asap to make way for ZION. peace and jah bless
No, you would have the Taliban and other radical islamist groups invading Iraq and regaining power in Afghanistan. How did that work out for us that last time they had that much power? Oh yeah, worst attack on our soil since Pearl harbor. Guess we better do what it takes.
The Iraqi troops don't have the advantage of already having been a modern military force. They're on a steep learning curve. It's going to take time. It will be a while before any of them have the experience to lead.
i dissagree, i believe it was a conspiracy despite what you claim. and even if it wasnt (im not saying it wasnt) america had time to react. osama bin landen threatened them a while before actually doing it. no matter how you look at it, there was a big mistake on the american governments side, and things coulda turned out brighter had they taken the necissary precautions. but thats done and over with.
what im saying about the whole thing is that there is a better way then hindering their overall growth as a country. theres more than one way to approaching something, no matter how you look at it. iraq was never going to invade america anyways, thats quite obvious, and as much as i am grateful for america helping my country out with iraq, i still think theres a better resolve when dealing with this.
no one should be concerned with OTHER culture's being able to lead other sheeple in some kind of diplomatic way. what ppl need is God's Kingdom which is in the spiritual realm you pimp dirty hearted shmohawk asanine satan dick sucker
No, I mean it will be a while before enough of the Iraqi military have the experience needed to be in leadership positions like Commander and General, for us to leave the defense of the whole country in their hands. Try and keep up, if you're gonna join the discussion.
Besides, not concerning ourselves with other's cultural developments is why we have an uncontrollable army of maniacs willing to blow themselves up in the name of a peaceful religion.

Yes, they read a bit more and go to college a bit more because they don't work nearly as much and their governments often pay for higher education.

As far as I'm concerned, ALL cable and major "news" networks are a JOKE compared to PBS. Cable is by FAR the worst.
Manufacturing, the news media, the middle class . . . So many things began to die when Reagan ($) and the corporatists came to power. Flag pin "patriots" . . . They sold it with the flag . . . and half the country fell for it.
One of the biggest problems that I have is with this guy's last name. Get away from electing Kennedies to office. The people in the northeast act like you have to vote for them. Why? They can womanize, get kicked out of Harvard for cheating, become addicted to crack and you guys still elect them.
If his name wasn't Kennedy, would any of us have heard his rant? Kucinich goes screaming his head off all the time and nobody cares because he looks like a lawn gnome.
He's absolutely right! The government of this country along with the media has betrayed us, lied to us, and spit all over the constitution of this nation! They have committed treason and should be arrested and put on trial! The good news is if man isn't willing to step up and deal with these vipers, the Living God is, and in case the sheep in AmeriKa have missed the signs let me clue you in to the fact Judgement Day is very near. Praise Yahweh!
It should be noted that there was a time when the media was on top of the activities of the government. Now the media only operates under corporate, profit-based influence. So the media, which once was respectable, is only driven by ratings.
We have a do-nothing government that is not kept in check by the media, which then allows them to continue to do nothing.
It's nice to see someone in government call out the media, but it's something we all should be doing.
as long as people follow the tabloid nature of politics and reject the polcies issues then nothing will change. Too often "the politicans" and the "corporate media" are criticized as the source of our problems. Well, who votes for the politicans and who watches the corporate media.
So I guess my question would then be, how do we get people to stop consuming the tabloid politics? Will there just be one day where the majority of people just wake up and say, 'Hey, Media--this isn't what we really need right now!'?
There use to be integrity in journalism, another check and balance. We used to show our war dead on tv, but that kind of reality tv is too unappealing now.
How do we reverse course when we're currently plummeting?
Well I'm just a 20 something who likes to debate on youtube but here are my thoughts.
1. We ought to admit that we as a population have a problem. My comment above which you pretty much agreed with, has a -1 rating right now. Like the Islamic jihadist, too many people simply want to vilify the mainstream media and the politician without dealing with the question "what makes them who they are?"
2. We can vote with our remotes. I used to be a cable news junkie, and then I started listening to NPR. (the only traditional media in this country that is growing by the way) and supplement it some of the news organizations which strong presences on youtube. Newspapers are dying, Nightly News is dying, and Cable news doesn't reach as many people as they want us to think.
the dutch queen played a dice game with queensday and threw triple 6. Nobody seems to care that she has the mark of the beast...yet alone anyone that draws 6 's in a card game. any one could be a the "infamous"mark of the beast. Didn't everyone claim that the bush presidents where the mark of the beast? It seems to shift every time there is a presidential election
right well that is a stupid assumption. You expect it someone with political power be the most destructive. It could also be a holy man like the pope through religion or a corporation... you just sucking stuff out of your thumb and make thing as you go. Besides you just confirmed that it you think it is every US president. that makes your predictions kinda faulty everytime a president is elected
@ EndOfTimesProphecy You have the intellect of a sponge mop. With over 85% of the worlds scientist being atheist- your statement is as uninformed as your political ideology and blind faith. Confirming your mental incompetence-- you should not be allowed to use a fork unsupervised.
Is it wrong to break out like that... yeah, it isn't very professional. but you know what, he's right. Yeah, the press is out of line, get mad? Sure, but I don't think that was good timing... however; I'd shout "Right on!" to this man. He's truly concerned and I'd say that kind of life and action needs to be back in congress. Speak out if you have a point, scream if they're hard of hearing.
Kennedy's rant, should be aimed elsewhere. We are still in the middle of two wars, and there are only two people from the press there. And Pat wants to know why? Because the wars are good now, Obama put in another 60 thousand troops, kinda like some guy named Bush who wanted to do it. But THEN it was wrong. Now that O is doing it, it's "hey, who cares, Obama knows what he's doing, no story here" Plus. Look at the Oscars. every yr they would rag on bush but no prez bashing this year.
Boohoo. Cry about poor bush getting his feelings hurt more. This rant is well deserved. The media needs to spend a lot more time on substantive issues.
As for sending more troops to Afghanistan, bush never tried to do that. He ramped up IRAQ. You know, the war that has nothing to do with 9/11?
That still doesnt excuse lack of coverage on the most important resource our country has: the lives of our young service men and women who are STILL dying for essentially nation building.
Kennedy is absolutely right!!!! The media can spend hours on Massa's scandal, a flying balloon and so much more nonsense but when congress is deciding on an issue that affects the thousands of our brave men and women fighting in Afghanistan, they are nowhere to be seen!!! The media today is a shadow of what it once was. It certainly is despicable.
@ugboy1 The men and women are dispensable. War mongers are making billions from the wars. Bottom line? It's the american people that let this happen not the media.
mass media is a bit of a joke they do focus on scandals more than anything else because it's sensationalism and that's what sells advertising space and newspapers. how often do you see a politician being interviewed by a reporter being asked a real question or a tough question? very rarely. real newsmen like walter cronkite or eward murrow are spinning in thier graves....
As citizens we don't have to pay attention to the blathering stupid cable "news". I had to look up who & what Kennedy was ranting on about because was clueless.
Yes, news folks... cover something useful! Glad someone is yelling at them to do a better job!
Not phony. I believe it. Maybe exaggerated, but I believe his sincerity.
Regardless of whether he is telling the truth or not, he is telling the truth. Afghanistan is the most important national issue and it isn't being covered. Forget politics for a second and rationalize what he's saying. I think his claims, while perhaps dramatic, are important.
I'm not nodding my head because he's a democrat. I'm nodding my head because I think he's got a good point.
Look at it this way, even if you don't think that it is the biggest issue in America, don't you think it deserves more media attention than its getting. I mean, Afghanistan is worthy of more attention than Massa isn't it? Or do you disagree with this as well? I respect your opinion either way, this might just be a fundamental different between you and I.
Congress is only in session about 3 or 4 days/month so the press wont waste its time sending reporters to hang around. The real action is off stage where the back door deals are cut with big corporations. Unfortunately, the Press will never learn about those.
I don't know why not. All they have to do is walk across the street to the restaurants surrounding the hill and they'll see the "business" of govt in action.
Also, if little tiny organizations like SNOPES and SOURCEWATCH can keep track of all of these lobby deals, the pathetic, slack-assed, self-absorbed, mainstream INFOTAINMENT media has absolutely no excuse.
Wolf Blitzer combs more money out of his beard every day than SOURCEWATCH spends in a whole year, yet...no real reporting.
It's a market economy. The people get what they want. And they want bullshit on Massa.
Aren't we just scapegoating the media here. They can't force people what to watch or care. And it's not as if the information isn't out there. It's everywhere.
Is this really an issue for people anyhow?
500 American soldiers died last year.
40,000 citizens died in road accidents.
The point I'm trying to make is; I like to rant too.
Yes, it is an issue. According to your statistics 40,5000 lives were lost. 500 of them were American who gave their life for American interests, and 40,000 whose death could of been prevented by higher safety standards on our roads. So wear your seatbelt, don't drink and drive, and don't speed, and thank those who serve us.
Eh, people base their opinions and desires on what the media tells them. Put a McDonald's commercial on during the right show at the right time, and millions of Americans will suddenly feel the urge to go to the Drive Through. Run a short segment claiming there may be some health benefits to drinking wine, and you'll see wine sales bulge.
Sure, coverage is based around what people want (actually, what's most profitable) but it's not the one-way street it's made out to be.
Hey, I totally agree. It's a 2 way street. Our opinions influence media & media influence our opinions. But try not to be so easy, the Democrats are in damage control mode because of the Messa story. And that's the dynamic driving this gentleman's rant today.
He's in a position to actually change things. I'm not going to high five him, for giving a generic 5 minute rant today, not when he's just going to carry on happily with the status quo next week.
Anyway, the public could spend 8 hours a day watching congress debates, wouldn't make them anymore informed. Congress is melodramy - just with bad acting.
With all due respect you have no idea of his actual views, you have no basis for your claims other than national cynicism towards politicans. Many of them actually are trying to make a difference, Damage control or no he is correct about the media and about the american peoples caring more about drama then about the war.
We need more of what Kennedy did, he's late in getting it on but he did great, keep it up, maybe the slugs in the media and several who have posted here will wake up.

When Obama's victory news made headlines in 2008, Illinois' Lottery drew 666, sharing Obama's front page
So I simply say Obama was destroyed
Why ?
Because the whole religious groups automatically saw Obama as the Antichrist
Our job as messengers of Truth and Apocalypse is simply to reveal this: the 666 revelation destroyed Obama
The Lottery's 666 is money/the Mark of the Beast of Obama's his money

It should be noted that there was a time when the media was on top of the activities of the government. Now the media only operates under corporate, profit-based influence. So the media, which once was respectable, is only driven by ratings.
We have a do-nothing government that is not kept in check by the media, which then allows them to continue to do nothing.
It's nice to see someone in government call out the media, but it's something we all should be doing.

as long as people follow the tabloid nature of politics and reject the polcies issues then nothing will change. Too often "the politicans" and the "corporate media" are criticized as the source of our problems. Well, who votes for the politicans and who watches the corporate media.
thequietkid10 1 year ago
@thequietkid10
I pretty much agree with you.
So I guess my question would then be, how do we get people to stop consuming the tabloid politics? Will there just be one day where the majority of people just wake up and say, 'Hey, Media--this isn't what we really need right now!'?
There use to be integrity in journalism, another check and balance. We used to show our war dead on tv, but that kind of reality tv is too unappealing now.
How do we reverse course when we're currently plummeting?
hanslute 1 year ago
Well I'm just a 20 something who likes to debate on youtube but here are my thoughts.
1. We ought to admit that we as a population have a problem. My comment above which you pretty much agreed with, has a -1 rating right now. Like the Islamic jihadist, too many people simply want to vilify the mainstream media and the politician without dealing with the question "what makes them who they are?"
thequietkid10 1 year ago
2. We can vote with our remotes. I used to be a cable news junkie, and then I started listening to NPR. (the only traditional media in this country that is growing by the way) and supplement it some of the news organizations which strong presences on youtube. Newspapers are dying, Nightly News is dying, and Cable news doesn't reach as many people as they want us to think.

the top world scientists have made lists of the occurrency of 666 in the world
in card games it's happened fifty trillion times, and also 50 000 that many times in other places
the only ONE TIME it means anything's when the world's most powerful man becomes the world's head
what that means for our time-period's the US president's election time or when he's announced so
This occurence of 666 destroyed Obama and we must just reveal it

Kennedy's rant, should be aimed elsewhere. We are still in the middle of two wars, and there are only two people from the press there. And Pat wants to know why? Because the wars are good now, Obama put in another 60 thousand troops, kinda like some guy named Bush who wanted to do it. But THEN it was wrong. Now that O is doing it, it's "hey, who cares, Obama knows what he's doing, no story here" Plus. Look at the Oscars. every yr they would rag on bush but no prez bashing this year.

Boohoo. Cry about poor bush getting his feelings hurt more. This rant is well deserved. The media needs to spend a lot more time on substantive issues.
As for sending more troops to Afghanistan, bush never tried to do that. He ramped up IRAQ. You know, the war that has nothing to do with 9/11?
That still doesnt excuse lack of coverage on the most important resource our country has: the lives of our young service men and women who are STILL dying for essentially nation building.

Not phony. I believe it. Maybe exaggerated, but I believe his sincerity.
Regardless of whether he is telling the truth or not, he is telling the truth. Afghanistan is the most important national issue and it isn't being covered. Forget politics for a second and rationalize what he's saying. I think his claims, while perhaps dramatic, are important.

Look at it this way, even if you don't think that it is the biggest issue in America, don't you think it deserves more media attention than its getting. I mean, Afghanistan is worthy of more attention than Massa isn't it? Or do you disagree with this as well? I respect your opinion either way, this might just be a fundamental different between you and I.

Aren't we just scapegoating the media here. They can't force people what to watch or care. And it's not as if the information isn't out there. It's everywhere.
Is this really an issue for people anyhow?
500 American soldiers died last year.
40,000 citizens died in road accidents.
The point I'm trying to make is; I like to rant too.
jimwal2008 1 year ago
Yes, it is an issue. According to your statistics 40,5000 lives were lost. 500 of them were American who gave their life for American interests, and 40,000 whose death could of been prevented by higher safety standards on our roads. So wear your seatbelt, don't drink and drive, and don't speed, and thank those who serve us.

Eh, people base their opinions and desires on what the media tells them. Put a McDonald's commercial on during the right show at the right time, and millions of Americans will suddenly feel the urge to go to the Drive Through. Run a short segment claiming there may be some health benefits to drinking wine, and you'll see wine sales bulge.
Sure, coverage is based around what people want (actually, what's most profitable) but it's not the one-way street it's made out to be.
