Cenk Uygur: Conservatives Direct "Hate-Seeking Missiles", Not Liberals

[alexjxcx]

nbc behind cenk? im surprised =O

[StonewallJackson26]

They call themselves the Young Turks. I would like to see them talk about the Armenian Genocide, and how his ancestors murdered 1.5 million Christians. And to this day the Turks deny it.

[shawnyadeadhomie]

@StonewallJackson26 damn they should've got rid of all the christians

who cares? how is he responsible for what his ancestors did?

[StonewallJackson26]

@shawnyadeadhomie Cenk is a cunt, and you are one of his fag followers.

[shawnyadeadhomie]

@StonewallJackson26 way to answer my question man

You are clearly an intelligent and rational person. I respect you.

[shawnyadeadhomie]

@StonewallJackson26 yeah I'm the one who typed dismissive obscenities without offering anything of substance

[StonewallJackson26]

@shawnyadeadhomie " Damn they should have got rid of all christians who cares?"

There is no point in debating with someone who makes a comment like that. You and Cenk are both fags.

[shawnyadeadhomie]

@StonewallJackson26 I made a joke(maybe in poor taste) and then asked a question. You responded by calling me a fag and calling Cenk a cunt. Which one of us was unreasonable?

[StonewallJackson26]

@shawnyadeadhomie You! How is that a joke? Uh, not funny in the least.

[shawnyadeadhomie]

@StonewallJackson26 Humor is subjective. Calling someone a fag, not so much.

its ok to be an asshole, just don't try to justify your assholishness

[StonewallJackson26]

@shawnyadeadhomie I am an asshole. You should admit you're an asshole also.

[StonewallJackson26]

MSNBC is pure filth television, polluting and corrupting the minds of Americans everyday. Unbelievable that such crap is televised and totally accepted.

[StonewallJackson26]

Why did I watch this? I lose brain cells every time Cenk opens his mouth.

[sammyjs1983]

The Young Turds

[MrBolas33]

Suck a fart out of my ass cenk!

[WIENERSCHNITZEL252]

r u guy not listening... Rush is telling a JOKE, he isnt actually saying go kill them... its a freaking joke. Sharron Angle is telling the people to not vote 4 Reid, thts how u take him out, u guys must be retarded. Bachmann is saying to be ready to defend in words, not actual violence, and actions like not voting for liberals. Do u guys notice how he puts emphasis on the dangerous part and not the energy tax part.... please tell me some1 understands this... i mean seriously

[oTANSTAAFLo]

Poor Cenk, always proved wrong by the facts. It's good to have a record of this hack trying to blame the political right when a left-wing nutjob shoots a democrat.

[redryan20000]

I lol'd at the comments. all guilty embarrassed republicunts

[Justino292]

@redryan20000

Lmao I did the exact same thing when I saw these failures comment on a pretty reasonable video. The funny thing is that these republicunts probably know nothing about politics or even read their precious holy bible they so carelessly shove down children's throats. They're nothing but profligates that deserve to be crucified. Even a slave in Caear's Legion had more virtues than a dumbass republican voter/commenter for the slave are Honestas, Industria, Prudentia.

[razorx3113]

Biased media at its best. This man is sick in the head. I think he's worse that ED. What a freak show. You darn well know we could play the other side of the spectrum, so Cenk your a bias political hack, good for you! How is those ratings doing for ya?

My biggest complaint is I would like to hear a serious debate. Instead we get the same old one sided dribble. Cenk be real and you may have....?

[meowman1911]

@razorx3113 just like o'reilly, you prove that you are right by looking at peoples ratings. because clearly what the majority of people believe is always the truth, just like when everyone believed that the earth was flat. idiot

[razorx3113]

@meowman1911 Typical, Liberal statement,. You are the flat Earthier. Hindsight should tell you Cenk was wrong. I suggested they debate this issue or level the field. This was a deliberate attack on Conservatives. This is why MSNBC does not get ratings. Most people know what was said was false. Maybe you should listen to some O'Rielly and balance your brain a little. Don't let Cenk do all the thinking for you, a Idiot and flat Earthier

[razorx3113]

@meowman1911 BTW I was using the typical liberal name calling techniques, you like ; ). Where is Cenk? I guess truth and ratings do matter. Now we have the Rev Jackson, desperate is all I can say.

[razorx3113]

Biased media at its best

[o56kid]

What a dumbass...

[Deathfromthesky2112]

If Cenk would pull his head out of his ass he would realize that using a shooting to make a cheap political point is reprehensible. The same goes for the blow hards on the right. Seriously our media is a joke, people need to wake up and grow up.

[bergaflickal]

maybe if cenk had done his homework he would have found out that lohner was thought 2 be more liberal than conservative by his friends and family

[LibertyDownUnder]

It's only violent hate speech, because it's against Democrats.

When it's against Republicans - it's FREE speech.

[YOURINQUIRER]

@LibertyDownUnder Please provide an example of someone threatening violence and Democrats doing this.

[LibertyDownUnder]

@YOURINQUIRER, democrats were told to 'bring a gun' when it's a battle over healthcare.

They openly admire Mao Zedung and Che Guevara. The 'One Nation' rally was supported by organisations openly calling for violent revolutions.

Also you can see Naomi Wolf, a NY journalist, comparing the Bush administration and the rise of the Nazis in detail:

/watch?v=RjALf12PAWc

[YOURINQUIRER]

@LibertyDownUnder I know of no Democrats who admire Mao or Che. Even if you could find some, that's not you said you'd provide. I have met Republicans who had positive things to say about Hitler, David Duke comes to mind. The people cited here are republican leaders, not someone you met on a forum. You said threatening people with violence, not Hitler comparisions or expressing admiration for a communist. I'm still waiting.

[LibertyDownUnder]

@YOURINQUIRER, I'm not a big fan of soundbites, I don't think they prove much but here you go:

Democrat leader hate speech: /watch?v=C6uGlbTzB6s

And a senior Democrat's view on Mao: /watch?v=kCtpLbSIko0

My point was more about the media. You often see the media criticizing conservatives, and this is seen as normal. The number of times Bush was shown with swastikas or worse during his presidency is not even worth trying count...

It only seems to cross the line when it's about Democrats.

[YOURINQUIRER]

@LibertyDownUnder Again, you can't to provide ANY example of Dems advocating or defending violence. We ALL see it.

In context, Dunn said both M. Teresa & Mao taught "you're going to make choices; you're going to challenge; you're going to say why not; you're going to figure out how to do things that have never been done before." Famous GOP strategist Lee Attwater gave the same quote.

Steve Cohen was criticized by Dems a lot for that comment. Who on the right has criticized those mentioned?

[LibertyDownUnder]

@YOURINQUIRER, 4th time lucky: my point was about the media, not politicians in particular.

[TheRealMeaney]

that an idiot like cenk uygur weighed in on the subject of free speech should be a clear indicator that his side of the argument is not only wrong, but hypocritical.

i can't take seriously people who would publicly and passionately decry free speech. to do so on television is just ridiculous. what does he think prevents his own poor choice of words from activating one of his theorized violent, impressionable gun-owners?

[LibertyDownUnder]

@TheRealMeaney, very true.

[YOURINQUIRER]

@TheRealMeaney That all you can respond with is ad hominem attacks, and are complete unable to attack the substance of his argument, is a clear indicator that your side of the argument is not only wrong, but hypocritical. I can't take seriously people who would publicly do this.

Yes, gun owners are so notoriously weak and defenseless. lol.

[TheRealMeaney]

@YOURINQUIRER there is no substance in his argument. he claims rhetoric on one side of the spectrum instigates violence and downplays rhetoric from arguments he endorses. if there was a fancier (read: latin) term for cenk uygur's careless arrogance and your lapdog defense i would still just say you're both idiots, so you'll both understand my contempt for your narrow point of view.

[YOURINQUIRER]

@TheRealMeaney He makes a distinction you are ignoring. A common euphemism like "Don't bring a knife to a gun fight" is wholly diffrerent from advocating armed revolution like those quoted above. I'm sorry thought & consideration makes one a lapdog in your eyes. I know that conservatives have long since abandoned thinkers like Buckley & Will for Palin, Bachmann & Beck, so it should be no surprise to me that you would feel comfortable in simpler conversation. I promise not to use the big words.

[TheRealMeaney]

@YOURINQUIRER you don't have to say anything like the word gun/kill/murder/etc to get an idiot to do something stupid.

really though, the problem is best addressed with a question. why is it a group of people who call themselves 'progressive' get up in arms about other people using irritating terminology to sell an idea?

that kind of hypocrisy brings me to doing stupid things like voicing my opinions to a mass of idiots on the internet and using "up in arms" to sell the point. risky!

[lukegreen37]

@TheRealMeaney Free speech can only be used to such an extent. Threatening to murder someone crosses that line.

[TheRealMeaney]

@lukegreen37 clearly you've never heard of hip-hop, or at least the sub-genre that lyricize threats, often to real people, in order to boost sales. it only sounds like a bad example, until you realize that politicians are salesmen as well. but if words could kill, i would bash in your head in with a haiku about how god damn stupid your first sentence was. it would be beautiful.

[pushycatpops]

@TheRealMeaney You do not understand the term of free speech. There is consequences to things you say, period.

Look up the legal definition of "fighting words"

[TheRealMeaney]

@pushycatpops, i think i do. why else would i savor calling you a reactionary twit if i not only understood the consequences of speaking up but supplied a legitimate example for you?

and if "fighting words" is your reasoning, maybe you should look up its definition, or more to the point, how nearly every case since chaplinsky v. NH has whittled that piss-poor decision down well-below what you're arguing against now. short of incitement, cenk and you are fools blabbering for less freedom.

[kaixdragon]

@TheRealMeaney This person probably hardly knows anything about Cenk's work, get out of here little guy.

[JosephusBlowesus]

Gifford's teabagger rival Kelly used her picture as a bullet target to raise money in a campaign rally at a shooting range. No Democrat did anything like that

[snorp73]

When did Rocky Balboa pretend to care about politics?

[iLDiscovolante]

It's time to be really honest, not in denial. Stop the violent rhetoric. No one is really be tyrannized and no one is a kommie/socialist/etc. We have to help OUR Country and come up with ideas, some can be new. And remember we all have the to right to PEACEFUL assembly! Remember the word Peaceful, for the sake of OUR Country and OUR children.

[bulldogbell1980]

I wonder if the shooter kid is a religious limbaugh listener. This piece reciprocates negative rhetoric and the argument will never end.

[soloM81]

wahaha these guys are good at playing all the dumb sheep aginst each other. the con game never ends

[jabberwolf]

Conservatives created an atmosphere? HAHA Where was Cenk during 8 years of Bush?

Living in a fucking hole?! There are SCORES of liberal protests that had Bush as a Bull'seye and claiming we needed a revolution !!

Or the plan that flew into the IRS building - liberal

Barney Frank Jokes About Assassination Attempt on Cheney

Whatever palin said had NO CONSEQUENCES concerning Gabrielles death but maybe the communist mannifesto did ?

[HNK222]

@jabberwolf During the 8 years Bush was president, NO Democratic leaders called on supporters to take up arms and remove Bush or rightwingers - That's the point! GOP "leaders" ARE telling their psycho followers to take up arms & commit violence!

Also, the IRS terrorist who the rightwing embraced was a Libertarian - not "liberal". Provide a link to where Barney Frank joked about assassinating Cheney. Another Limbaugh Lie.

By the way, asshole, Gifford's is still alive. Try to keep up.

[o56kid]

@HNK222 We ARE NOT going to lose our dreedom to you communist crazys.

[JosephusBlowesus]

@o56kid crazy?? take a look in the mirror

[hoosiermama5357libin]

@jabberwolf put up the proof of anything you said jabwad.

[JosephusBlowesus]

@jabberwolf maybe if he wasn't able to get a 32 round clip, say only 10 round max, most of those people wouldn't have gotten shot. He also read "Mein Kampf", your favorite.

[o56kid]

@JosephusBlowesus If he had 4 10 round magazines, then he would have 8 more rounds than in the 32 round magazine. . .

You are ignorant. .

[JosephusBlowesus]

@o56kid He was stopped when he had to reload the FIRST TIME. So if he only had 10 round mags, he would have only gotten off 11 shots, counting one in the chamber, before he would have had to reload, not 32. Hence 2/3rd less people would have been killed or wounded.

[o56kid]

@JosephusBlowesus Did he even have a second magazine to continue killing?? Anyways, reloading takes less than one second with a semiautomatic pistol for someone who practices, it is a seamless procedure, it could have easily taken place between target acquisitions.

A GUN AND IT'S MAGAZINE IS NOT TO BLAME!! the person holding the gun is at fault. . . the logic you use is not too logical. .

[JosephusBlowesus]

@o56kid He had 3 mags with him and when he was stopped, it was when he was trying to reload the FIRST time. Even a practiced shooter, which he wasn't, could mess up reloading under pressure.

[o56kid]

@JosephusBlowesus Okay, still, the weapon is not to blame. . .

[nd5000]
