  • Conservatives aren't professors because they're degenerate dumb fucks.. Lol

  • Bill now likes quotas; he is such a loud mouth. Why did he talk over Thom, but not Lars?

  • bill oreilly can eat shit.  This is a perfect example of the tattered remnant of bedate. ITs abhorrent from beginning to finish. Thom is not given any say. idiocracy.

  • Right-wing nuts should get out of Oregon and the northwest for that matter. I am sick of you reactionaries trying to brain drain the few bastions of sanity left in our country. Migrate to Texas or some other southern wasteland and set up your ideal primitive utopia. Where you can impose your unregulated free-market theocracy.

  • Oreilly just loves to hear himself talk. He ought to have his title changed from talk show host to filibuster in chief.

  • main lie told by bill o is "twice as many conservatives as are liberals" truth=there are at least 3 times as many liberals as conservatives. i suspect more like 9 liberals to every one conservative in all the country combined.

  • Not many conservatives that become professors? That's likely because they're all retards like you who never went to school, Bill.

  • Funny as hell, O' Reily is appauled that more intelligent people tend to be liberal!

  • I agree that there are intelligent Republicans... just not many want to be college professors... that's all

    And O'Reilly said there are twice as many Conservatives as there are Liberals... that doesn't mean there are twice as many Republicans as Democrats though...

    Conservative does not NECESSARILY = Republican, FYI

  • Lemme get this straight...Lars gets the first word AND the last? Typical Shmuck O'Reilly's idea of "fair and balanced." Boy, is he ever working at the right network.

  • "I want the most qualiifed canidates."

    Well the most quallifed candidates tend to lean or fall over left, also when a school hires new teachers, i don't think they asked them for their ideology.

  • It shouldn't matter about the professor's political affiliation for the majority of the teachers anyways. Unless your something besides a political science, government teacher it shouldn't matter. Once again Bill wasting America's time.

  • From everyone here in county lane, and the Emerald Valley. Feck you Bill!!!! You stupid, lying plastic paddy wank.

  • At Ohio State University the Sociology and geography dept are overwhelmingly liberal, the poli sci is more conservative, and the business school is strictly conservative. Its the same most places. get over it.

  • Lars, have the first word. Okay Lars lets hear all your points. Lars, I’ll give you the last word. Thom we’ll hear a couple points while I cut you off since you are a little too intelligent, and should not have been booked on this show. Fair and balanced at it’s best...

  • @biohazr2d totally

  • Did Bill-O just say there are TWICE as many republicans as democrats?? Okay, he said "conservative," but the debate was about party affiliation--so lets assume he meant republican. Where in the hell does he get is facts from????? There are 1/3rd more registered democrats then there are republicans! 63 million vs. 47 million

  • another example of zionist 'what coconut shell is the ball under?'

  • Gotta love Bill O's baldfaced lie at the very end. Twice as many conservatives as liberals? Sorry, but I call bullshit. There are ~ 20 million more registered DEMOCRATS in this nation than Re-thug-licans. Got that, Bill O? 20 MILLION MORE DEMOCRATS. Not that actual FACTS even matter in the Reich Wing propaganda machine...

  • Government has failed because of the liberal influence. because liberals don;t understand how to run a business or produce a product that no buddy needs.Prime example, look at the US Forestry system, look at Amtrak . And you want the government to run our health care. Thom Hartmann is a fart in the wind. This man is a typical lib. His interpretation of the constitution is distorted. He is commie lover.

  • @AUSTINRINT And you are a numb-nuts.

  • @AUSTINRINT Look at US now and how the USSR used to be - who's the commie lover?

  • Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach.

  • What a bullshit irrelevant topic. If you don't like the ivory towers and their politics, don't go near them.

  • Political Science, economics, and sociology are all useless subject matters. It's a real shame that some colleges do not value the importance of accounting laws and public laws. A large number of college professors are just not willing to spend the time do research on the laws. They will rater spend their energy doing the easy work: elaborating their own opinions/political views. Always taking the easy way out.

  • O'Reilly thinks anyone who is for The Constitution is a Liberal. Thom Hartmann rules. Maybe the learned faculty are running from those right wing extremists. 9-11 was an inside mass murder.

  • @truthout911 lucky for you keyboards dont filter bullshit

  • @ssike0 The also dont filter NAZIS like you either

  • @truthout911 just like georg w. and wmd......you are one really stupid fixed news audience...don't drop those tea bags from your forehead.

  • @truthout911 just like georg w. and wmd......you are one really stupid fixed news audience...don't drop those tea bags from your forehead. don't drop his tea bag from your mouth!

  • @TheKkronic420 Funny How your boy Obama & Co is continuing the wars that I didnt support in the first place and we dont hear much from phony fake two faced liberals like you on your critizism of Obama being a warmonger. Hmmm Drop the pat from out of your crack, Dirty Hippie!

  • GO DUCKS!

  • This is appalling. The reason for a liberal bias in academia is because REALITY has a liberal bias. It;s VERY simple. And please tell O'Reailly if ever you are on his show to go fuck himself. He is an arrogant ignorant wanker and is ruining democracy with his far far far right fascist view points - oh and he aint everyones father...

    '6% of scientists are republican' on you tube. Those that study REALITY are liberal (or VERY liberal) - BECAUSE REALITY IS!

    Did i mention O'realilly is a wanker?

  • @StunnedByStupidity Yes and the reality is that LIBERALISM IS A MENTAL DISORDER. and you are living proof of that. Liberal states use less benefits?? Oh like CA which is bankrupt! 42billion in the hole or NY! Cities are laying off police and fire depts by the droves. Yes reality has a liberal bias alright, if you spend the day smoking dope, as appearantly you do!

  • @truthout911 Fuck me you lot are VERY stupid. So a tin foil hatter 911 'twoofer' thinks that the Arnold Schwarzenegger position of NOT taxing the rich is 'liberal'. Look moron for the last 30 years NEOLIBERALISM - pushed by the far right, starting with Reagan has RUINED the WORLD economy. Have you ever read a book in your life?

    'Republican States Benefit More From Fiscal Redistribution Than Democratic Ones' on google.

    Conservatives are wrong on just about EVERYTHING!

  • @StunnedByStupidity And SCIENTISTS - those people who study REALITY spend all day sat around smoking dope? Have you ever visited planet Earth. And considering the fact that liberals are THE most educated and joint highest earners and you think its down to dope, then maybe you should try some to raise your education and income layer. Look you lot are insane, hypocritical, bigoted authoritarians. See 'The Authoritarians' free ebook on google (one of the characteristics of 'Right Wing

  • @StunnedByStupidity Authoritarians' though is that they will NOT NOT NOT read anything that makes them question their world view - so I predict you will ignore said book and tell me all about it like how biases and unrepresentative it is - OBVIOUSLY with NO supporting evidence - for it is the trait of the insane right winger that it thinks that God is constantly on the look out for what it believes then he changes reality to fit). The ignorance of people like you is why we are in such a mess!

  • @StunnedByStupidity You kiss your mother with that filthy mouth of yours. No thanks, but I am declining your offer. I dont want aides. Something that is rampid from the children of the Sexual Revolution. People with absolutely no morals what so ever. As far as conspiracies, when you tell me how Bush blew up the towers maybe I might be willing to listen to a left wing hack like you. If you think all you woes began with Reagan, that is more proof of your stupidity. LIBERALISM IS A MENTAL DISORDER!

  • @truthout911 How old are you kid? You speak like some brain washed cult member. The sexual revolution - WTF? Your bizarre creepy weirdo. And no morals - Oh my word you are completely insane. I am getting the VERY strong whiff of the fundy off you. You want to tell me how old the Earth is? Did Jesus have to avoid the dinosaurs when he ventured out? Oh and Bush blew up the towers? REALLY? What all by himself? And your PROOF of this? Oh I forgot you don't need any - cos you are INSANE!

  • @StunnedByStupidity The cult member is an idiot by the name of Stunted by stupidity. The insanity is in the ramblings you just made. Progressives and Nazis have a lot in common. Like gun control. You both support, look at the Gun control laws in Germany in the 30s. Fake environmental issues. Eugenics, IE abortions. Progressives of yester year heiled Hitler as a Saint. Fake progressives of today Heil Robert KKK Byrd as a saint. Yes again LIBERALISM IS A MENTAL DISORDER, and you are living proof!

  • @truthout911 So dismiss Scandanavia, socialism, politics of SCIENTISTS, 40 YEARS of study on the dangers of people like you in that book, the other 2 books, the fact that liberals are better educated and take less benefits, and REALITY. Hmmm. THEN you go totally insane. And trundle out Glen FUCKING Beck conspiracy theories. Let me guess, number of books read on the politics of Nazis - NONE!. Well, I suggest you start. Fascism is a VERY difficult term to define - thats why Beck chose it

  • @StunnedByStupidity BTW choosing some isolated trait and defining the totality of a person/group by it is FUCKING INSANE. Nazis drank water, so do insane right wingers therefore the right wingers are Nazi - I'm sure you will TOTALLY agree with that last logic? No? HYPOCRITE! There has been some progress over the last decade to define the term though and here are 14 of the traits:

    '14 signs of fascism-The USA turning into a fascist country? ' on you tube.

    Now fruit cake how many of those

  • @StunnedByStupidity traits are Republican/right wing? And how many liberal/Democratic? Hmmmmm. nuf said - but of course you will YET A FUCKING GAIN dismiss this out of hand and pull more nonsense from your ass. Then stupidity about guns? 1st do you think you could use a gun on another person? Well AGAIN rad some fucking books. Try 'the truth about killing'. See during war out of every 100 people in a battle only about 20% could even bring themselves to point a gun at the ENEMY. And only 2%

  • @StunnedByStupidity are able to shoot like they do in the movies. And guess what THEY ARE PSYCHOPATHS. Modern train has changed this statistic from the NATURAL tendency to NOT kill to a more than 90% tendency to kill. However that does NOT negate the emotional distress if you see what you have done. Thus the levels of mental illness and homelessness (1 in 3 of those on the street). See:

    'The truth about killing' on youtube - 2 episodes each in 5 parts.

  • @StunnedByStupidity See Indiana Jones - PSYCHOPATH, Han Solo - PSYCHOPATH, James Bond - PSYCHOPATH, Batman - PSYCHOPATH (yeah its was supposed to be the Joker but it's Batman as well) and on and on.

    By the way you know those delightful corporations you, Ron Paul/Alex Jones all love - well the worlds top expert (Robert Hare) has an appraisal:

    ':: Corporation : Clinical Diagnosis (PCLR) :: ' on you tube

    Hmmmm. And if you had got up off its lazy backward ass you woul have known that

  • @StunnedByStupidity that book I suggested identify 'double highs' that the backward 'Right Wing Authoritarians' (yes you) attract. See when a dictator rises he does so supported by the people like you! Double highs, Altemeyer believes may have many traits of psychopaths!

    Oh and by the way the markets are thought by economists to be played in a rational self interested way. There are 2 types of people who consistently act like this 1) is economists the other? Take a look:

  • @StunnedByStupidity

    ':: Us, the psychopaths : Game theory and market democracy :: ' on you tube.

    Hmm I'm seeing a pattern. BTW I hear about 'responsible' gun owners. Yet Americans are among the least responsible in the industrialized world - wiping the floor with other countries. Therefore because they cant be trusted Americans should be denied firearms?

    Then you trundle out abortion. You know EXACTLY when a 'baby' is created I take it? Well I don't. But not only do you know - with NO evidence

  • @StunnedByStupidity You are going to tell ALL women what they can and can't do with their bodies - sexist bastard. And tell me when a woman has a miscarriage, thats God doing and therefore what? God is as evil ad liberals? Do tell - you backwards fruit cake. But why stop there, every time a man ejaculates he expels enough seamen to impregnate hundreds of millions of women. Lets pin down all non menstruating, fertile women and make them all pregnant - I mean you wouldn't want to deny all those

  • @StunnedByStupidity potential babies their lives would you? Oh, you would? Then you sir by ypour own VERY VERY VERY stupid logic are a fucking MURDER - I will send Mrs Marple around immediately.

    Then fake environmentalism? I mentioned 2 either you have drunk the cool aid and think global warming is false (you are anti science - there's a surprise eh?) or you think this is made up:

    'Mass extinction underway' on google (go there and SLOWLY scroll down. Hmmm

  • @StunnedByStupidity And you call me a racist? WTF? Now I have said NOTHING that could even be slightly framed as racist. I ranted at your bigotry - because I am VERY VERY VERY concerned about our future - and cunts like you are going to guarantee it if you don;t weak the fuck up. But I'll bet a billion you are African American - my mouth falls open. You are a right wing republican and are black? *shakes head*. You are completely and utterly INSANE! READ FUCKING BOOKS! And wake the fuck up!

  • @StunnedByStupidity I have had arguments before with just looney tunes right wingers. One I remember where an African American was being disgustingly homophobic. I point out that the amount of uncalled for hatred he must have to endured as an African American, from bigoted white RIGHT WINGERS should have given him insight into how disgustingly he was behaving, but no, he was a right winger and would simply dismiss anything that kept him from becoming an enlightened individual. You would be proud

  • @StunnedByStupidity Why dont you STFU, with your self righteous santimonous ass. I know jistory of progressives and the relations to nazis. I believe in taking care of the environment, but I dont believe in enriching scamsters like Al Gore and fraud called Global Warming. StunnedbecauseyouareaNAZI, do ever have a thought of your own without your cult leader Hartmann telling you what to think? Take your NAZISM and GET OUT OF HERE

  • @truthout911 You are like a five year old. So you have NOTHING no proof what so ever, and if you had followed my MULTIPLE sources you would indeed see you are bat shit insane. BTW WITH PROOF (and that would be peer reviewed) what has caused the warming over the last 30 years? No?

    And more projection - IF YOU READ THE EFFIN BOOK - you would see it is YOUR TYPE that follow..

    So that is EVERYTHING that has been declared you know fuck all about and can't defend. Now go read some effin books retard.

  • @StunnedByStupidity Judgeing by all of your lunatic rantings on here, I would say you didnt get your meds by the govt this month!

  • @truthout911

    truthout911 smells of poo poo ne ne nene ne. There am I now down to your level or am I still aiming way to high. Truth hurts eh? Now maybe you will try to negate your bigotry and wake the fuck up before we reach disaster!

  • @StunnedByStupidity Judging by all the hatred you keep spewing on here, I would say you are the hate and fear monger!

  • @truthout911 Still cant defend a position? Hmmm

  • @StunnedByStupidity BTW, the great Max Keiser, who is a regular on the tin foil hatter, Alex Jones show has a great article on his front page. Just type 'Max Keiser' into google and they give their opinion of another regular on the show - but it aint nice. (Cos he aint):

    'Max Keiser' you tube

  • @StunnedByStupidity Defend what position? How much of a NAZI you are . How much you love eugenics. How much of a racist you are. Those are positions you need to defend, not me. StunnedbecauseyouareaNAZI you need to STFU! Everyone here can see how much of a nut you are!

  • @truthout911 I accept the white flag. Now get the help you clearly need. Read books, And quit projecting.

  • @StunnedByStupidity Stop quoting Hartmann, find the antidote to the koolaid you have drank, get mental help and then FUCK OFF!

  • @StunnedByStupidity Oh I forgot, stop being a NAZI!

  • @truthout911 Moron.

  • @StunnedByStupidity NAZI, racist, liar, two faced liberal!

  • @truthout911 Moron

  • @StunnedByStupidity Ooh is this the best you can come up with.

    Typical progressapussie! All mouth and no action

  • @truthout911 Look I am tired but more than happy to keep up the childish back and forth. But lets get you to step up to the plate eh?

    SHOW US PROOF OF YOUR ECONOMICS.

    SHOW US PROOF THAT FASCISM AND PROGRESSIVES ARE FASCIST

    THAT PROGRESSIVES ARE EUGENICISTS.

    SCIENCE THAT SHOWS WHEN A BALL OF UNDIFFERENTIATED CELLS BECOMES A BABY?

    THAT BUSH DID 911?

    THAT THE US BEATS SCANDINAVIA ON SOCIAL INDICATORS

    HOW LONG WILL THE MIDDLE AND BOTTOM HAVE TO WAIT FOR A PAY RISE UNDER YOUR INSANITY?

  • @StunnedByStupidity WHAT WITH PROOF IS CAUSING GLOBAL WARMING?

    WHERE ARE THE STUDIES THAT SHOW WE AINT RUNNING OUT OF OIL?

    HOW IN RONS PAUL/ALEX JONES FREEMARKETS DO THE CORPORATIONS NOT BECOME A FASCIST DICTATORSHIP?

    AND TELL ME ABOUT THOSE BOOKS I SUGGESTED YOU READ - OR ARE YOU A BIGOT?

  • @StunnedByStupidity That should have been

    SHOW US PROOF 'what' FASCISM 'is' AND THAT PROGRESSIVES ARE FASCIST.

    I grantee you would try a cheap shot and run away if I didn't make that clear.

  • @StunnedByStupidity The gun laws of the 30s that Hitler passed are the same laws progressives support. Carbon Dioxide is something we all breath and plants needs to live, its not our enemy. Many climatologist and scientist dispelled Global Warming Nonsense, which btw brought you NAFTA and GATT, but now Mr. Gore will save the planet. Lets see when you dont see that its the govt that allowed the corps to get out of control then you only get a small part of the picture. GO AWAY NAZI!

  • @StunnedByStupidityMore Lunatic rantings from a loud mouth progressapussie. You are living proof that LIBERALISM IS A MENTAL DISORDER!

  • @StunnedByStupidity You worship Margret Sanger who was given awards by Hitler and she is quoted as saying "black people are weeds that need to be exterminated" a clear racist bitch who was Eugenicist.

  • @truthout911 Look I was kidding before but these replies are the replies of a mad man. REALLY go get help, you appear deeply disturbed. BTW go read/watch some of Max Blumenthal stuff, he thinks there a large group of people like you who are mentally unstable (by these replies I can confirm it is true of you). He might give you some insight. Now I will let you call me a Nazi one last time and leave it at that, but you MUST promise you go get help.

  • @StunnedByStupidity The more keep running your mouth is more proof of a nut you are/ Instead of trying to lecture me about what I need to read with your SELF RIGHTEOUS, SANCTIMONOUS, CONDESCENDING ATTITUDE, try shutting the FUCK UP!. I know NAZIS like you are control freaks, BUT GIVE IT A REST!. Its past the 15th of the month so hopefully the govt sent out you supply of meds.

  • @StunnedByStupidity Again you are living proof that LIBERALISM IS A MENTAL DISORDER!

  • @StunnedByStupidity You are a NAZI and a racist pig! You drink the Hartmann koolaid. You must heil Hartman. You know that Hartmann favors Hitler in a way. Perfect match!

  • @StunnedByStupidity Progressive liberalism have distroyed the black communities, have caused the break up of the families with high divorce rates, teenage pregnacies, and deseases. You have whack out theories about economics. Thinking you can spend money that doesnt exist. You have the attitude of entitlements, always wanting something for nothing. You are lazy. You are control freaks. Also you have no facts to back up your statements..Just snide remarks.

  • @truthout911 'progressive liberalism' has WHAT? Boy you fucking \SHOUT insane right winger. Look it is a trait of the right winger that knows he is on the wrong side to PROJECT his own failings on others - even if it makes NO SENSE! Go get hold of the books 'The Conscience of a liberal' and 'the spirit level' then when your insane take on reality lies in tatters on the floor come back and apologize for being a backward unenlightened insane scum bag. And the theories on economics that are insane

  • @StunnedByStupidity are right wingers. Tell you what, what are THE most civilized sates on the planet? I'll tell you, they are th Scandinavian countries. Socialist and highly taxed, oh and per head, LESS teenage pregnancies, less racism, sexism, homophobia, better educated, better health services, longer lives, less fat people, less mental illness, less serious crime, less people in prison, better Gini coefficient, freeer press, happier in fact pick a social indicator and the almost always

  • @StunnedByStupidity sit at the top most positions and mostly beat the US! All that without the worlds largest military and the worlds reserve currencies - Hmmmm. But AGAIN and I mean AGAIN because EVERYTHING you have so far declared has been divorced from reality you will simply dismiss this. Well I have something to break to you - READY? BRACE YOURSELF - REALITY HAPPENS IN SPITE OF WHAT YOU THINK NOT BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU THINK!

  • @StunnedByStupidity And that last bit is just jaw dropping. Even after I show that liberals are richer, more in touch with reality and take less benefits the bigot still is stuck in stupid. But heres the even more fucking insane thing, the neo liberal Reagan/Thatcher/Friedman model has caused the middle cl;ass to borrow the loss in earnings over the last 30 fucking years! You you fucking heartless cunt voted to ruin these peoples lives with your gullible psychopathic memes. And surprise

  • @StunnedByStupidity surprise its the fucking VICTIMS fault? Yeah right wing scum you are. So tell me with no pay rise for 30 years for the working class and a tiny increase for the middle while production grew by 40-50% and just about all went to the elite, putting the disparity back to the 1920's level tell me cunt boy how much longer does the 90% of Americans have to wait before you get your bigot head out of your backwards ass and start voting for the fucking people?

  • @StunnedByStupidity Look this aint a fucking game WE FACE FUCKING DSIATER on MANY fucking levels and bigots like you fill their heads with complete and utter, reality divorced stupidity - and you ignored that book - THERE'S A FUCKING SURPRISE EH?

    Now, no pay rise, hundreds of millions going hungry, the global economy trashed, peak oil, habitat destruction and global warming will fuck us all up - its time to step up to the plate and WAKE THE FUCK UP - for all our fucking sakes.

  • AHHHHHH! Its painful to watch the right wing spin machine in control of the media! Thom is like "a voice in the wilderness". O'wingnut-riley makes me sick!

  • Showing how brilliant you are. I'm impressed.

  • Sit back and drink your koolaid.

  • @bpentium Sit back and regurgitate your right-wing talking points. Besides, did you go to college? I suspect not.

  • good thing he ain't retarded for reals, like those who vote GOP

  • @toddosworld He's like a "douche in the wilderness"

  • Why Hartmann bothered to appear on this clowns show I don't understand. Hard to say anything when your getting either interrupted or talked over. But that's how O'Reilly has his show set up. Him and those who agree with him filibuster the conversation(if that's what you want to call it). Period. Any constructive informative intelligent conversation is discarded. It's an insult to the human brain.

  • O'Liely's statistics are Sh*t. Twice as many conservatives as liberals?

  • O'rielly is a dumbass, colleges have always been liberal leaning.

  • gt40f:

    Using O'Reilly's logic, Divinity Schools should be accepting more atheists.

  • @indoctus41, perfectly put.

  • bpentium, I wasn't aware that there were liberal profs still expounding the virtues of pot and socialism! Guess nothing has really changed since the 60s and 70s! Actually, contrary to your reply to my post, there were plenty of conservative professors as well as plenty of liberal professors in the college that I graduated from in the early 70s, and I would venture to guess that there still is a well-balanced mix. As for your reference to "Idiocracy", it was "interesting", not great.

  • "That kind of political tilt" is a result of better, smarter decisions on who to put in places of authority at the campus, not something Bill O understands.  He is basically stupid.

  • @bigblock1966 Liberals don't want conservative professors in universities. Kids might learn something and it's harder to brainwash them. If you want to see where liberalism leads watch the movie Idiocracy. It's a good glimpse of your future.

  • @bpentium I think "conservative professors" might be a oxymoron

  • @bpentium Maybe you should get a college education. Watching movies is no substitute.

  • hahaha god bill is such a joke, he bitches about how a government run school is unequal, but then the next show he'll be bitching about how government funded schools are SOCALISM and COMMUNISM OH MY!!

    Hope he doesn't use the police, fire dept, roads and highways, garbage pickups\, the usps, any libraries, ect...

  • Comment removed

  • According to U.S. News & World, U of O has the fourth best graduate education program in the nation, outranking even some private universities such as Harvard, Johns Hopkins, and Northwestern... it also has the most productive faculty in terms of research funded... they have to be doing something right

  • Keep those pillows over your ears Bill!

  • Bill-O finally said something true. Democrats ARE smarter than Republicans! Seriously, though, it's been my experience that republican professors tend to use their lecturns as bully pulpits much more often than democrat professors. In fact, talking about politics outside of a politically oriented classroom is just a non- issue on campus. Another trumped up conspiracy by the reicht, er, right.

  • Democrat professors expounding the virtues of pot and socialism is what is screwing up our country now.

  • Are you serious? Because if you are, you just proved my first statement. Please tell me you're kidding.

  • You probably believe unborn babies aren't people and that manmade global warming is real as most of the lefties do. Better tell your friends to sell their ocean front properties before it's too late.

  • Why is it that all conversations with republicans on YT start out with "you probably believe..."?

    I suppose I'm not a good American- I have a tendency to think for myself and come to my own conclusions instead of being fed what my opinions SHOULD be.

    I'll tell you one thing I believe- the wealthy in this country like nothing better than for you and I to keep badmouthing each other so they can continue running off to the bank. So I won't do it. Maybe you can resist the urge, too.

  • Why are the left so against being wealthy? It only tells that they think it's great being poor. Or do you all want to be poor alike, other than the elite politicians you listen to. Maybe you are unable to run your own life and need some Harvard lawyer to tell you what to do.

    Oh, and everything is Bush's fault. I forgot that one for a second. That's the mantra of the left.

  • I see you couldn't resist the urge....sad.

    I have no problem with someone doing well. What I have a problem with is men of power and extreme wealth sitting behind closed doors deciding on an agenda that insures that they keep their power and wealth, regardleess of how it affects your life and mine.

    Please stop assuming things about me. My only mantra is for a less divided country.

  • Super rich men of power like we have in the government right?

  • Sorry for the delayed response... I had to run out to get an abortion, meet with my commie/fascist/socialist organizers, and on the way home, I hugged a tree. Man what a great country!

    To answer your question: Indeed. They've been there since Reagan, and your pals W and Cheney are prime examples. But it's also the CEO's of oil companies, health insurance companies, investment banksters, and the guys at the Federal Reserve, which isn't federal and has no reserves.

  • @bpentium what a stunningly stupid comment. Liberals are joint best earners and MOST educated. The liberal states use less benefits. Its the south that use most - the republicans. The left want everyone to be somewhat wealthy - they know letting a few get VERY wealthy is bad for everyone in just about every way. And you can 'run your own life'? REALLY? What you built your own house, grow your own food, make your own cars, medicines, computers, planes, clothes? WE ARE IN THIS TOGETHER - sheez...

  • julsHz : Bravo! Standing ovation for that comment!

  • @ fargenacle--Thank you.

    Peace for the New Year!

  • Thom could hardly get a word in. What a worthless segment. I would like to see Thom and Bill-O the clown go at it one on one.

  • Bill-o could never face Thom alone. He knows he would be outmatched. You see how they skiped over Thom's affirmative action comment.

  • For sure, I think many people can face Thom at all, the dude just tells the blatant facts, and seems to know them all. Very smart and well researched man.

  • Did you see the outakes of Bill-O against Jon Stewart? Even Stewart takes him down!

  • Furthermore, any "conservative" with any brains would be too embarrassed to have anything to do with the Republican Party. The Republican Party is the Party of Buffoons at this point. Look at Beck, Look at BillO and Rush. You want people like that teaching your kids at a University Level? All that Hayek Austrian Economic Friedman stuff is out the window these days for the GOP. The Republican Party is chock full of Schickelgruebers. If you deny it, then you are one but are too stupid to know it!

  • Coming from a guy that voted for Obama, a president that believes there are 57 states?

  • Says the guy who thinks what appears on Fox is unbiased and 'News'.

  • Isn't Obama that said 10,000 died in a tornado in Kansas and it was actually 12? He's such a tool.

  • And your hero Billo paid millions to a subordinate he sexually harassed. He is constantly caught in lies and talking out of his ass and is never man enough to admit it. Your 'News' channel labeled Iraq 'Egypt' on a map. Your party is filled with self-hating, closeted pervs, homos, and pedophiles. Keep telling me how proud you are of them all.

  • Mr. bpentium, would you be so kind as to direct me to your sources for these comments? I'd like to see the when and in what context Obama mentioned a 57 state union, and the thing about a overblown casualty rate.

  • They are easy to find on YouTube.

  • Make it easier, why don't you?

    After all, Liberals are too dumb to find things out on their own, right?

    Show me the links.

  • Ideologically a conservative would want a private sector job, why would a "free market" "greed is good" conservative who wants to slash public funding look for a job where his income would be limited? A "good" conservative is concerned with the Bottom Line for large Corporations, not the pursuit of Intellect or actually thinking. Perfect Example: President Bush II. A "good" conservative enjoys obeying his Corporate Masters. "Thank You Sir, May I have another?" slap slap

  • Thom can get tough, but part of me wishes this was one of those times. His points are valid: it's obvious that conservatives tend to want to make big money while liberals tend to want to give.

    I've had conservative fellow students whose minds didn't change because of having a liberal teacher- another good point Hartmann brought up towards the end.

    To be honest, though, it's kind of a goofy topic: as long as a professor *teaches* material well, his politics shouldn't matter in a democracy.

  • I don't think conservatives took over the banks and car companies. They are the party of big business.

  • Comment removed

  • REAL conservatives weren't for the bailouts. It's clear many fake conservatives didn't want the banks & car companies to die off. Sadly, the democratic & republican parties are connected to big money; sure, we have Kucinich on the left, Paul on the right, but the people are generally fucked. This isn't what the founders had in mind.

    Those familiar w/ Hartmann, Kucinich, & Obama know Hartmann & Kucinich are the progressives. Those familiar w/ Paul & O'Reilly know Paul's the conservative.

  • Thom is too polite

  • But wait, 1) conservatives think all teachers are communists anyway and 2) conservatives do not go for intellectual and aesthetic pursuits. Perhaps they should have checked the business curriculum or the football teams.

  • Liberals are lazy, get others to pay their bills. They lay around getting high and kill their unborn children. If they do have kids they shove them off on others to pay for. AND they are always victims of "something." Perpetual whiners and haters.

  • So speaks the whining, hateful conservative. Bpentium: projection much?

  • Watch liberal protesters. They won't let people speak, they interrupt others and they break things. Liberals say they are peaceful but are violent and they say they aren't racists but that's all they talk about.

  • Like how O'Reilly let Hartmann speak by talking over him? Or how the liberal civil rights marchers were breaking police attack dogs' fangs on their femurs? Or how liberals in Tienenman Square were violently breaking riot police batons & tanks with their bodies? Or how liberal coeds at Kent State were breaking police bullets with their brain pans? And heaven forbid we confront bigots for who they are. Better to just let their hatred spread uncontested.

  • This is pretty disgusting, buddy. I beg you to get informed instead of relying on people who get paid millions of dollars to spread Roger Ailes' agenda.

    My girlfriend and I are what many would call liberal: we pay all of our bills ourselves, use birth control, and don't whine and hate.

  • Maybe most Profs are liberals because Republicans are all about slashing funding for public institutions, including education? You know, cutting classes, dwindling financial aid, rising tuition...

    As a California public university student, I'm well aware of the damage the GOP can do to your average student.

  • To quote Michael Franti:

    "Why did they cut the Pell Grant/

    So they could build cells?/

    Ten years of prison/

    But no tenurizing universities/

    Is this ethnic diversity?/

    Or is it public policy?/

  • Republicans asking for affirmative action (Hartmann at 4:00)

    HaHaHaHa

  • According to the wingnuts, Liberals like to be educators because it is an easy cushy job....

    And I suppose being a conservative demagogue on Fox "News" is a painstaking occupation.

  • Thom won this one :)

  • wow liberals are more educated. what a shocker

  • hymean tiym i see you want the other enertainment channels to say glenn beck got a scalp dont you , i m glad you are aleast getting another view , with the big O , god old RACH ..its healthier that away

  • wheres the balance and fairness with corporate media ......they just tell enough of what you wnat here andthan  a person has to go out a seek his or hers own info on what was just told to them ... one sided news people ..

  • You guys should just stick with PMSNBC and Oburmann and Madcow. They could tell you all that the moon is made out of cheese and you'd all believe it. AND Keith plays that awesome scary organ music in the background. It's more the children's news than real adult stuff.

    Where was the main stream media coverage of Van Jones? Talk about state run media?

  • You said that already.

  • There are twice as many conservatives as there are liberals in the U.S.? I haven't watched O'reilly in a few years, but I can see he's still a complete asshole who makes up his own facts.

  • Hartmann mentions studies and BillO just dismisses them. It must be easier to live w/ such certainty. We need more profs to teach his black & white truths.

  • 2 republicans and 1 democrat, so of course the asshole gives the republican the last word. You wanna talk about organizations having an imbalance of political ideals, look no further than your own network, Bill.

  • Fox fair and balanced? Where was the balance in this segment? A conservative host and a conservative guest (along with a producer-goon harassing a provost) are pitted against a lone liberal. O'Reilly gave Hartmann only two or three brief moments to speak. And when he did, O'Reilly immediately interrupted him for an instant rebuttal. Is that a fair hearing?

  • Thom, why do you go on fox?

    Not only did we learn nothing, you kind of acted wimpy.

  • Fox News is one misrepresentation of the facts after another. Anyone listening to their drivel has a serious information deficit.

    Ask yourself this:

    If -- as is presented ion this clip -- the number of registered Democrat faculty members at U/Oregon is an example of "unbalance," how about we reveal the number of registered Republicans at Fox News?

    Fair and balanced? Only if you live in Conservo-nut land.

  • Fox "news" is the GOP's Ministry of Truth. Bill O' Reilly and Glenn Beck tell lies for a living.

    By and large, the more educated you are, the more liberal you are. It's a fact of life. Look it up. Everyone with a teaching job in a university humanities department is a college graduate so many of them are liberals. If you want to find conservatives on college campuses, head to the business school.

  • I wonder what percentage of the talking heads at Fox news are registered Democrats. Fair and Balanced?  I don't think so,

  • I wonder what percentage of the talking heads on PMSNBC, CBS, NBC, ABC are registered conservatives. Fair and balanced?

  • My point exactally! What does it matter what percent are democrats or republicans. As long as they are doing the job they were hired to do. Be it teaching students or reporting the news. But, Bill tries to make it sound as if the simple fact that there are a majority of democrats teaching at the school they are currupt. How does he make that leap when he is in a simular situation?

  • Actually most people who consider themselves true journalists don't register and don't vote. They feel if they choose a side they can't be objective.
