  • What a cunt

  • AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WTF! I'm proud to live in a world with people like her...

  • wtf, bush was pres during the 9/11 attacks for about 9 months how can he inherit it???

  • @8ball403 Because we were repeatedly attacked by the jihadist on Clinton's watch, he chose not the prosecute a war against them. They felt that President Bush was no threat, so they went after the towers. They got their answer when we invaded Iraq.

  • Mary Matalin is a political spin artist. I love how she tries to rewrite history. But you can always tell when she's lying. It's easy - her lips move.

  • Socialism: having to do with social society, usually the government owning industrial production.

    So the government owns the private interests. Must I go further?

  • @EmmaLG3 You're argument is completely laughable (lulzable). The stock market always goes up under Democratic presidents.

  • lulzable? please leave, the internet thanks you soldier!

  • @OhZoneFan And the stock market is doing what right now ?

  • is that woman stupid or crazy?

  • both, always both.

  • national socialism=facism

    facism= right wing ideology

    right wing ideolgies include: theocratism, totalitarianism, falangelism, nationalism, and conservatism just to name a few

  • hitler was a socialist.

  • I assume you flunked history.

  • Nope. Hitler was a socialist. The only thing that made him remotely "right-wing," is that he did not allow labor unions.

  • Just saying something does not make it so.

    Define 'Socialism' then show me how Hitler's political views fit the description.

    National Socialism has as much to do with socialism as the former German Democratic Republic had to do with democracy.

    There can be some kind of case made for calling some of his policies 'socialist', if you broaden the term to silly levels, but you are now saying that Hitler was not right wing?

  • @revjimbob "National Socialist Party" was the NAZI's. The left has tried for years, to say the the Nazi's were on the right. But they were socialists plain and simple. Do some research and you will find the answer.

  • @MrJburzynski Oh you need to do some research, NOW!

  • Whoh! that's funny , inheriting a tragedy. Now economies take time to destroy . What asshole was in charge when the current economy took a huge downturn in the last 8 years?

  • @IM1deadMONEY Barack Husein Obama ! Do I win a prize ?

  • That woman must be on drugs.

  • You've reached the lowest point possible in being a human being whenever you make it your job to inform millions of people on what is going on in the world, but choose to side with somebody based on what political party they belong to instead of who they are as a person and what they have done as a person.

    What a terrible woman.

  • Does ppl belive this shit? If so, man you are stupid..

  • Its infuriating to see how people are blaming PRESIDENTS for acts of terrorists. 9/11 and many of the other attacks would still have happened under anybody's watch.

  • They sit there, with the thought that they hold an appealing worth to logical people. Speaking of debt, while she wears gold earrings.... People like this sicken me.

  • I thought it was a surplus they inherited.

  • This is why FAUX "news" is a joke!!!!

  • you mean cnn

  • Say what?!

  • Funny how they can stir the walking dead when they touch upon thier "Party". As if they are not all in it together. You folks are really dead when you defend your sworn enemies. "Stockholm Syndrome" comes to mind. Interesting how they all get along behind closed doors. YOU really are the walking dead. You all sound like sound bites from the talking heads. Just read your comments.

  • Absomuthafukinlutely

  • pharaoh hits it right on the head

  • ... gas prices in 1998 averaged to be 1.08...

    what exactly did you inherit?

  • uhmmm clinton was the only president where we actually had a surplus of money

  • @systemofazeppelin666 The liberal media is responsible for propagating that lie, that the Clinton White House put out there. Anyone who knows, can tell you, that there are more than one set of books the government keeps on the economy, presidents, even President Bush had the same system. Clinton's however were wildly dishonest.

  • really fucking stupid HOW THE FUCK WAS ANY OF THIS CLINTONS FAULT BUSH DIDN'T INHERIT IT HE PUT US IN THIS GOD DAMNED RECESSION AND 9/11 HAPPENED ON HIS WATCH YOU DUMB FUCKEN REPUBLICANS YOU LOST THE ELECTION ITS OVER

  • i love home shopping netwerk.

  • how can her husband not choke her out...i guess they dont discuss politics much at home.

  • There is a basic fallacy here. It's the idea that a president actually controls every aspect of what happens in the entire country while he is president. 9/11 was a terrorist attack that could have happened under anyone's watch. We have put in place more strict security since, but that is because of the event. Economics are also very complicated. I'm not forgiving Bush for anything. I didn't think he was a good president. But to blame 9/11on Clinton ir Bush is ridiculous.

  • the recession was partially inherited from clinton, as under him there was deregulation of the banks

    the real people at fault for the recession though are the banks who made bad loans out of greed

    personally, i think that the creation of credit should be completely controlled by the government

  • @apbrit2009 That was Fanny and Freddy thing that put the banks in bad straits. Clinton made this happen with his Community Reinvestment Act.

  • We inherited it from Clinton? I had to rewatch this entire video to make sure I heard that right. >:(

  • If Iraq attacks the US now, THAT would be inherited from the last president.

    The 9/11 attack was inherited from almost every president you've had these last 50 years.

  • inherited the 9/11 attacks?

    Yes, but not from Clinton exclusivly. I think the FBI and the 9/11comission report got it right. The attacks were the result of a misguided Middle East foreign policy for over 50 years.

    To say you inherited in from Clinton is a Fukuyamian misreading of recent history.

  • @hyperseauton Clinton is partly at fault, because we were attacked several times, under Clinton's watch. He never responded because of his liberal idealology, plus he "loathed the military." USS Cole come to mind ?

  • Bush bashing? Thats kinda gross

  • Matalin is officially a liar now.

  • All of need to be more proactive against this kind of crap.

  • This bitch needs to die. Just sayin'.

  • @AIexandar Kinda extream don't you think ?

  • I dont blame Bush or Clinton for the attacks. I blame the terrorists.

  • @jawsjaws4 Now here's a thinking man !

  • How silly. Americans know that it was Junior Bush and the RepubliCons who were asleep at the switch on 9-11 despite all the warnings.

  • @AtlasShruggery Please fill us in on what you know about the subject.

  • Sarah and John should of been running this country. It would have been a better off place.

  • @lilbuggers3 If Failin' Palin were running things, we'd be no safer.

    In fact, I'd argue that we'd be in more danger, because we'd also have a fanatic in the White House AGAIN.

  • @BoredomCorner Tell us why you say that ?

  • What?? whatever it is dont smoke that shit anymore. You are talking nonsense, lady. Republicans again trying to soil past administrations for their stupid and tragic mistakes that has America in such bad shape.

  • WOW. I don't think there's anything else to say. How is this lady able to speak on television? That is one of the dumbest statements I've ever heard.

  • @hellogreenstar What are your qualifications on this subject ?

  • This woman is a joke, like CNN, who given this nonsens air time.

  • Amazing how Bush inherets a 9-11, 9 months after he is in office, and Obama causes a recession 2 years before he gets elected.

    Do Republicans actually wake up in the morning and believe the crap out of their maggoty-mouths?

    Well of course they do, THEY ARE FUCKING INSANE.

  • Vadik, you speak nothing but truth

  • Bush win a war ...good one...lmfao

  • @emmathird

    DIDN'T I TELL YOU FOLKS, THE FACTS ARE ALWAYS SOMEHOW TWISTED SO THE DEMOCRATS ARE AT FAULT, AMAZING.

    EXCUSE ME, WHO'S THE ONES ALWAYS ALLIED WITH BUSINESSES FOR HIGHER PROFITS? Republicans would sell their mothers for a profit so shut the fuck up about who sold out the country. Last time I checked no bid contracts were being given to Republican buddies

    Oh a far as the spineless Democrats being in charge of Congress last 2 years, didn't Bush veto everything they tried to do?

  • Darth'sVagina,

    Nooooo.... Bush DID NOT veto everything! Why do you think Republicans were mad at him? When your (R)President acts like a (D)... it pisses conservatives off!

    It's not the R that are getting money from the rich businessmen.... it's the D's, why do you thiink Chris Doud is dropping out? You do understand... he is being investigated for the money he has received... maybe he hopes... if he drops out like Governor Blag from Obama's state, IL... they will forget about charging him!

  • Nice to see you live inside your make-belief world.

    Like I said, you Repuvblicans are pure psychopaths, and you're the proof, just look at the crap you're writting. You cant make up facts, or change timelines just to make your story true.

  • @DarthVADIK Gee, I didn't know there was a "V" in Republican.

  • @Auggie56

    You're right, my mistake, I should have wrote RepubliKKKlan

  • Never mind that Bush had already been president for 9 FUCKING MONTHS before the September 11th attacks.

  • Replubicans always blame Obama on addressing that attempted bombing on that plane. But when Bush address on 9/11. They didn't say a word. What do you think?

  • Conservatives are morons.

    nuff said.

  • @EmmaLG3

    People like you need to just fuck off and die along with the rest of the old senile and delirious conservatards in this country.

  • JustBullShit,

    What is it with you DimWits and the F-word?

    I'm senile? I'm not the one, who can only think of F-U as an reply.... because YOU don't know shit about what the hell is going on in this country!

    What is it like to be the Party of Dumb... Dumber... and Dumbest?

    I knew O'BoutMe was going to screw up America.... I just did not know, that there would STILL be brain-less-twits like you, who thinks the DemWits care about you?

    Wake Up! Grow a Brain!

    You ARE embarrassing!

  • @EmmaLG3

    Yeah, people who are smarter than you will tend to embarrass you.

    You might has well get used to that.

  • JustDumbest!

  • LIES

  • The economy was booming during Clinton's entire presidency. Was the economy beginning to slow down when Bush was elected? Yes. Was the tech bubble burst going to happen whoever was president? Yes. Would the recession have been nearly as bad if Bush hadn't refunded the Clinton surplus and decided to run the country on credit and Reaganomics? No. As for 9/11, was it Bush fault? Probably not. But he didn't "inherit" 9/11; it did happen on his watch.

  • GhostlyFog,

    You think Bush DIDN'T inherit 9/11?

    Hmmmm.... Let me refresh your memory!

    93' attack on World Trade Center-6dead/1042 injured

    96' Khobar Towers bombed in Saudia Arabia - 20dead/372injured

    98'American embassies attacked in Kenya and Tanzania 223 dead/4,000injured

    00' attack on USS Cole in YEMEN 17dead/39injured!

    ALL ATTACKS WERE DONE BY AL QAEDA under Bill Clinton's WATCH!

    When you treat these low-lives as criminals instead of terrorists.... YOU GET 9/11!

    Please tell BO!

  • how are people that are labeled as "terrorists" also known as low lives?

    do you understand their lives enough to make an unbiased judgment concerning to their lives?

    maybe your the lowlife and need to understand why the attack happened

  • @EmmaLG3 Well Emma, if you have no sense of capacity or morals, then what makes you any better than the terrorists?

  • Emma didn't kill thousands of people.

  • by saying that you are a man of no morales sense or human capabilities

    it is a shame you call your self an American

  • @EmmaLG3

    The stupidity of your argument is that you believe that harsher punishments will deter terrorists from attacking our country.

    If someone is willing to die for their cause and risk the possibility of torture, do you honestly think that any terrorist considers the consequences of their actions?

    And if you suggest that Bush inherited 9/11 from Clinton, than you have to believe that Obama inherited the Detroit attack from Bush as Obama maintained most of his military policies.

  • Well, let's just forget that Bush "protected" us by throwing us into a recession, destroying American civil liberties in the form of wide-spread phone monitoring, and eliminating the idea of human rights for anyone even suspected of ties to a terrorist or terrorist organization. Yeah. That's a great job of protecting us there, especially considering the fact that there were still incidents (shoe bomber) that occurred.

  • It's no coincidence that she looks like a fascist.

  • Fucking conservatives are going head first into bizarro world as they are grasping at ways to blame Obama solely for the terrorist attack on that plane to Detroit.

    9/11/01=Bush. period.

    The latest terrorist attack could had been averted by improved intelligence and full body scans, such proactive measures weren't done by Obama, but also not by Bush.

    Fortunately, conservatives are called on their stupid shit.

  • The deficit was at an all time low when Clinton left office, wtf is she talking about?

  • Maybe I'm missing something, how exactly do you inherit terrorist attacks?

  • @Orygyn A will. A terrorist will.

  • LOL.

  • @Orygyn

    I guess Clinton wrote it in his will.

  • @Justin,

    Clinton did not have time to write shit.... he was to busy... sticking a cigar... up and down... and up and down.... and up and down....

  • theres a saying that goes around which suits this moment.

    "Only in America"

    and its true. Only in America would someone this dumb be allowed to appear on television in a debate

  • JamMit,

    Name calling? Yes.... I find it very entertaining.

  • Bugger, you're right. I should have just kept feeding the troll. :C

  • Bush did nothing to prevent 9/11 even thought he was warned by Clinton and Richard Clark. C. Rice called Clintons warnings "historical information".

  • Unfortunately for liberals, she's right. I bid you all good day.

  • Ummmm...9/22 happened ON Bush's watch, and Bush's downright stupid actions caused a world wide bankign crisis. Unfortuantley for cosnervatives, this is illegal and wrong.

  • You mean, of course, 9/11.

    Other than that, I agree with you wholeheartedly; conservatives are being idiots about this shit.

  • our actions in the mid east didn't start with clinton or bush.the blame goes to recent presidents and decades back.

  • fuk dem facts yo, bush invented reganomics

  • Why let a little facts get in the way?

  • Yes, because September 11th, 2001 took place during Clinton's term, which ended in January of 2001. I know that it's common right-wing practice to make shit up, but you just can't hold him responsible for something that did not happen under his watch.

  • TheSteakSauce,

    Right Wing Practice? Pleeeaaassseeee!

    BaRacket Hussein O'BoutMe is ALWAYS blaming EVERYTHING on Bush!

    You don't know your DemWit Party very well.... do you?

    It doesn't hurt the DemWits... to have the Leftist Media either... push their agenda... OR make disagreeable stories about them disappear!

    If you think I'm wrong.... why don't you ask all your brain-dead Dems what they think about O'Bama's terrorist buddy, Ayers or his race-baiting Rev.Wright?

  • I'm by no means saying that the Liberals are honest either, but that response shows why I lean left. Talk about brain-dead.

  • I'm supporting them because I support their actions more than I support the actions of the opposing party. It's called having an opinion. I wouldn't jump off a cliff if everyone else was doing it, because I am an individual. You really should stop insulting everyone instead of posing a legitimate argument, you're making an ass of yourself.

  • I support a woman's right to chose to terminate a pregnancy if it threatens her own life, and to terminate the pregnancy before it gains sentience.

    Illegal Aliens do deserve rights, it's not like they're taking the good jobs anyways.

    Not big on NAMBLA, but they're not bothering me, and they're not forcing boys to have sex with them.

    So, yeah, I don't see things in black-and-white.

    And Al Franken is awesome, and always has been. Really, what problem do you have with Al Franken? Now I'm curious.

  • Woah, sorry to hear it. I really don't care for NAMBLA, but I wouldn't have brought it up if you hadn't.

  • An embryo isn't a baby, you flapping quack. Your life doesn't begin until you're born.

    Also, you don't support welfare? Please explain where supporting impoverished families conflicts with your moral code.

  • What's wrong with trial lawyers? You need lawyers for trials; that's part of the foundation of our justice system. Hell, I'm working towards getting a law degree so I can be a district attorney, myself.

    Oh, by the way, the ACLU also loves making sure Christians have rights too. Of course, Christians are quick to forget this when it suits them.

    The Democratic Party does not officially support NAMBLA, as NAMBLA advocates something that is currently illegal. NAMBLA is basically dead now, anyway.

  • Except NAMBLA has become statistically insignificant. Reliable reports suggest that all that remains of NAMBLA is a website maintained by a handful of enthusiasts. There is literally no reason remaining for a politician to extend favors to NAMBLA, even if they personally supported the "organization".

    It is not a lawyer's job to create wealth or take it. It is a lawyer's job to advocate a viewpoint in court.

  • I'm glad I don't live in her Bizarro world. It sounds terrifying.

  • This never ceases to blow my fucking mind. Why, why, WHY are these fuckers so good at this? How can you, as a newscaster, just sit there while some goggle-eyed shithead tells you blatant, obvious lies and you smile and go "aw, shucks"? Has the entire fucking planet gone insane?

  • Hahahahah jesus christ US politics would be hilarious if they weren't so completely terrifying

  • I can't believe james carville didn't jump in and correct her, did CNN ever release a statement to correct her claim?

  • Limbaugh Hospitalized With Chest Pains

    kitv(.)com/politics/22094469/d­etail.html

  • They examined him and found nothing.

    No heart, no brain, nothing.

  • EmmaLG3,

    Please tell your mother there's still time to abort you.

    You're nothing but a festering corpse anyway.

  • I still say you're a POE, which makes you even more worthless that a republican or a christian.

    Whichever, I'm finished with you. You can TRY your caps TACTICS somewhere else.

  • Why are YOU capitalizing SEEMINGLY random words in YOUR comment?

    It ONLY makes you LOOK EVEN crazier THAN you are.

  • November 2010 Put a End to this obama /  democrat Madness.

  • She's right, obviously the person who posted this video doesn't know much about anything. You should be embarrassed right about now.

  • I'll give you the ression but 911? Bull. I know its just politics but this is why know one trusts politicians and those who spin. There a bunch of sick people who will gladly lie to you face.

  • How's that 3 trillion dollar war in Iraq going? Find any WMD's yet? Wasn't it a mission accomplished?

  • bout as well as that 700 trillion dollar bailout.

    has Dear Leader fixed the economy yet? I'm HOPIN' for some spare CHANGE.

  • well, i would question the 700 trillion number pulled out of air, but consider this: for $8,000 of stimulus in the US, it generates $100,000 in economic growth.

    Better than borrowing it from China and giving it to Iraq.

  • hahahhahah hook line and sinker.

    can't wait to see all this economic growth next year when you run out of people to buy your toxic assets and your economy goes all the way down the shitter.

    PS you don't borrow shit from China, they already own you and at any time they can sink you by not backing the dollar.

  • Well, your from Albania. So, your at the shit end of the stick. You might not hope for world economic collapse too much.

  • don't believe everything you read on the internet ;)

    plus lots of other countries weathered the economic shitpile a lot better than the US because buying everything you own on credit that you can't pay is a US invention.

  • Clinton left Bush a surplus? Really!?! You believe that nonsense? Our government keeps three books of deficits. It is a friken shell game an accounting gimmick. Pull your heads out of your asses and wake up.

  • rofl @ these fucking morons defending bush hahahaha,  so many clueless retards in this world....

  • What is she talking about? After the Clinton administration the country had a surplus (for the first time in a while!). Some people lie with the straightest faces.

  • @boomtao

    does the definition below say anything about surplus??? why don't people think before they post? We could have the largest surplus in the world and still have an economy in decline retard!

    recession: the state of the economy declines; a widespread decline in the GDP and employment and trade lasting from six months to a year.

  • She is talking about the deficit and debt (within the first 5 seconds even).

    A budget deficit occurs when a country spends more money than it takes in. The opposite of a budget deficit is a budget surplus. Debt is essentially an accumulated flow of deficits.

  • obama FAIL

    11 Months

    30 Terrorist Attacks

    15 Million Out of Work

    obama / democrats Spending Trillion Dollars of out Tax Dollars for What?

    Health Care, Now The Goverment will tell Ur Doctor how to Treat U.

    READ THE BILLS

  • 3 Terrorist attacks

  • It was the president who changed the international standard of beign even handed with all nations. Once se stopped being even handed then nations started hating the USA. When did the even handedness top? WHen the USA govt started listening to Kissinger and all his cronies.

  • i hope this stupid fucking cunt gets hit by a truck!

  • agreed

  • the world is going to end in 2012 get ready and prepare yourselves!

  • people sayed the world will end in 2000 too even the mayans today say that the world wont end, and why would you trust the mayans there civilization ended already get over it

  • there are no mayans today and the 2012 thing is a is a phenomeon with in our galaxy that accours every 2000 years the humans species has been on this planet for about 1million years this has happend before in our history i have no reason to belive that we are approshing the end of days here

  • yes there are mayans today they are the desendents of them and if this 2012 phenomeon happened every 2000 years why is there no written evidence of the end of the world

  • well lets see about 2000 years ago would be right around the time that jesus was walking on this earth and way before the invention of the telescope and way before any true astronomical studies were being done back when rome was still standing the reason i say every 2000 years is because of nasa's just as a staring point should you decied to do some research try planet x

  • and the reason i say there are no mayans today is because even though i can go trace a persons ancestors back to this tribe i would bet anything that if i asked them hey what are you they would not respond mayan they would say im mexican and when you say even mayans today say the world wont end in 2012 thats like me saying no no my great great great great grand father (man dead way before my birth) didnt mean what he said back in 1820 when he called your great great great great grandmother a hoe

  • sorry typo 2000 years is because of nasa's study that there is a rare aligment of the planets every 2000 years wich will accour in 2012 the mayans were known for thier knowledge of astronomy the calander is based on their astronomical knowledge it also predicts the aligment of the planets this is what people worry about were the fear strikes that the worlds polarities will just go crazy and we are ingulfed by the sea because of it but there is no real data to prove this theories

  • if this did happen then souldnt the ROmans have had something written about seas engulfing them and what not

  • sigh when i said the seas engulfing thing i refered to the erational fears that people today have i do not belive that this will happen or has ever happend and my only disagreement with your comment was "even the mayans today say that the world wont end" as if todays desendents had any realtive background of the knowledge that their ancestors possed. i am not saying the world will end i do not belive in the theory and specially one based on the mayan calander they could have simply gotten tierd

  • Actually, the Mayans exist today as the indigenous peoples of Central America. Many of them have mixed heritages with Mexican, Spanish, Caribbean, and African ancestry. I once met a guy who was a quarter Mayan, a quarter Korean, a quarter Mexican, and a quarter African.

  • I wonder if it ever occurred to these 2012 fanatics that maybe the Mayans just stopped making their calender, figuring they had enough done to last the rest of their civilization and beyond. O.O

  • @brownnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

    what do you mean "the world is going to END"? The world is a practically round object, it never "ends". Not even in 2012.

  • the clinton administation said osama binladen was not a threat tho he attacked US embassys

  • WHO FUCKING CARES?

    They All Have The Same Goal But Just Take Different Paths Getting There. It's Not About Being A Democrat Or Republican. They Are All The Fuckin Same

  • @XXXXXMintYCQyz no my friend they arent the same republicans are not socialist they dont vote that way
