  • This is funny. he's accusing the GOP of doing what the Dems have been doing for 50 years. The funny part of this is that everything he's talking about are the exact things the Dems have done.

  • @buisyman

    Not saying your wrong or right. But could you provide documented examples?

  • @ViralTofu Have you asked Cenk for proof? Probably not. But, since you've apparently been living under a rock all your life, here's a few video clips. /watch?v=ziIupInh_Xk

    watch?v=JCQGOP4jBbo&feature=re­lated  watch?v=5t6Nyy3zdf0 watch?v=eqrdAQchZ1g there are just a few examples. Plus, as an added bonus. go listen to the Dr. M.L. King speech "I have a Dream", then tell me where the liberals are even trying to follow that dream, ok?

  • @buisyman

    Whoa whoa hold on now. First of all I don't know who cenk is. But whoever this person is doesn't matter because I asked you. Also insulting me is not a good way to win me over or validate your points. Secondly your links do not work. Finally what does his speech have to do with anything? It seems to me you put your defenses on high and pulled a racist card quickly. which to be honest is very telling about you more then liberals or dems.

  • @ViralTofu You have to put the links after the youtube . com thing. They work that way. You sounded just like all those liberals out there who are demanding proof but offer none themselves. I didn't t;hrow any race card, I just suggested you listen to that speech, and make your own educated analysis. I've got nothing to defend, except the fact that liberals bore the hell out of me.

  • @buisyman I don't need to watch them at this point.I do not need to show you proof for a nonexistent stand point. I came not representing liberals or democrats. But asking a simple straight forward question. You grouped it in with insults and irrelevant arguments. It is clear to me at this point and let it be known i am making my own educated personal analysis here. That you prove this video right. You attacked fumed hate not answer a simple unbiased question. I am done here.

  • @ViralTofu Yea, that's what I thought. Another retarded liberal asking for proof, then ignoring it when it's presented. Go away, junior. Get a vasectomy before you pass along any of those stupid genes.

  • when I hear this,.. I want to say to every American here; Whenever Dutch Politician Geerrt WiIders comes to your country, to rant about Islam being a violent ideology,..TELL HIM TO FUCK OFF!! the man is in an all-time low these days...Im starting to think he watches Faux news..

  • republicans are SICK IN their mind ....

  • @mitchthemich That's true. I'm a Republican and I'm a heter. I'm also rich. I made my million by killing old people, just like Ed Schultz says. At night I raid nursing homes and kill old people in their beds. Then I put them in cold storage until I have several hundrd of them. Then they go by cold storage to India to the Bombay Pet Foods LTD. where they make several types of dog food. There is Mahatma-Meal for puppies, Gunga-Dinner for adult dogs, and Calcutta-Cuts for older dogs and cats.

  • @earlyhemibill all repulvicans sucks

  • I'm a bisexual Republican and I'm sick of this idea that the GOP are hateful to gay people- there are very many conservatives who have no problem with gay people (and even those who do mean it only out of love from the Bible). They do not "hate gay people" Cenk.

  • @JermzzzyFTW I agree that many conservatives don't hate gays (I'm a conservative too, and I don't give a damn what people do in their bedroom), but I think that there's a stereotype for conservatives to be gay hating, muslim hating, black hating bigots. Just like there's a stereotype for liberals to be pot smoking, welfare recieving hippies. It doesn't belong in the news though since they're just stereotypes.

  • Republican = party for the riches

    Democrats = party for illegal aliens

    ????????? = party for us common us citizens. JUST TERRIBLE!

  • @xoxak888

    Actually the Democrats and Republicans are both elitist rich people. Just one main difference...the Republicans want to control through money and Democrats want to control through Government. Well, not everybody in both parties think that way, but most of them do, what a shame.

  • What would this boy do without strategic soundbites, misquotes, outright lies, and Saul Alinsky's "Rules For Radicals" as a playbook? Independents, Conservatives, TEA-party adherents, and strait up Republicans curb-stomp boys like this daily with facts, reason, and logic. But he may have a future as a used car salesman. Today's sales pitch was made to "black persons, gay guys/girls, immigrants, and Muslim-Americans (in their right minds)". Way to telegraph your own racism. Where's Van J ones?

  • @stevehowedbproud So it's your argument that Republican politicians and talking heads have NOT vilified Muslims in this country, not opposed gays at every turn, not tried to cut programs that disproportionately impact minorities?

  • First it was "Ignorant", then "Racist", then "Violent", and now "Hate Speech". It seems to me that Liberals are justing throwing crap at a wall hoping it will eventually stick.

    Reminds me of the seventh grade.

  • @kartman13

    yo dawg

  • @kartman13 Reminds me of this show.

  • @kartman13 Actually I think all of the above work pretty well.

  • America was attacked, the WTC towers were utterly destroyed and this speaker (alias: traitor) wishes Americans to not remember it? What's purposely evaded in his rant is a sense of justice. American's should remain angry against a Muslim totalitarian regime that wants world control. I hope American's never get over being angry against injustice - against corrupt regimes - against darkness and irrationalities.

  • @yenom01 Clearly you've missed the point. You can be as pissed about 9/11 as you like. What you can't do is lump ordinary law-abiding Muslims in with extremists is still claim to live in a free and open society. You don't stand against darkness and irrationalities by becoming darker and more irrational. You don't defeat totaltarian states by becoming totalitarian yourself.

  • @toddsmitts You don't defeat them by laying back an "submitting", either.

  • @stevehowedbproud Who the hell is "submitting"? Does what happened 2 weeks sound like Obama is doing that?

  • @yenom01 You might want to research who was responsible for the world trade center attacks, there was an explosion inside the building a couple seconds before the first plane hit, and G.W. Bush has a video on you tube where he said he watched the first plane hit but went in to a class to read the happy little goat, then still did nothing after the second plane hit, and let osama bin ladens family fly out of the country, WTC #7 was IMPLODED, it wasn't even damaged by the crashes. BUSH DID IT.

  • Where's the vitriol? Oh yeah, it's on the left.

  • @Razor8472 Yes, in response to the lies and willful ignorance from the rightwing nutbags and republifreaks. I'm glad that your ilk is becoming less numberous, more ineffectual and obsolete. You're all a bunch of propaganda believing, buy bull revering, hearsay and superstition believing morons. As the Faux "news" watchers slowly die off, we can all rejoice.

  • @richwfd2002 less numerous? I'm glad to see one more cookie jar taker not understand election results. 2012 won't improve your mood much, either. Funny how life's losers want to suck from other taxpayers more and more yet have no idea how to improve an economy, protect sovereignty, or understand the 18 enumerated powers of the US gov't. So going by your "feelings" unless you print money endlessly, nevermind the consequences, you're just mean. What a retard.

  • @Razor8472 Yeah, right. Repubs are no different from the dems when it comes to fiscal irresponsibility. Wake the fuck up. Your "christian" politicians are making fools of you and they always will. Regardless of who "wins" in 2012, the song remains the same, dope. We all, as citizens, lose. This phony "patriotism" and party loyalty that republitards wave around is part of the problem.

  • @richwfd2002 What you're trying to say is "conservative" politics. You may be unaware of this but Christianity is a religion, not a party. Bush spent way too much money and was called on it by true conservatives. He was also called on it by libs, then they showed the world how to really waste money. No difference between the two parties? Um, okay.

  • @Razor8472 Noone can deny that the repub party and fundies have become almost fused. The lines have become very blurred. Deny it all you want, but it's true. This administration's fiscal policies are very similar to Bush's. Besides, you're using semantics in an attempt to sound knowledgable. Ain't workin'.....................

  • @Razor8472 Not so much mean as barbaric. It's true, "elections have consequences". Maybe Oh'Bama will use the newly spread wealth to finance a "57-state" vacation in payment to all the visigoths, huns, and anarchists who voted his communist butt into office. Not gonna happen. 'Cause individual voters aren't too big to fail! Remember, socialism is for the people, not the ideologue who forces it upon them.

  • Sorry Cenk, I like you, but Bill Maher was right. Don't put anything past your stupid country. The majority did vote for the party of hate.

  • So Dems are good for minorities? LMAO! Persian please. Any "minorities" that believe in ANY political party are out of their fucking minds.....

  • That’s exactly what Barack Obama said he would do to counter Republican attacks “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,” Obama said at a Philadelphia fundraiser Friday night. “Because from what I understand folks in Philly like a good brawl. I’ve seen Eagles fans.

    Party of Hate????????

  • @hokiefan181 Dumby.

  • Liberal talk radio host Mike Malloy on Glenn Beck, a recovering alcoholic, told his radio audiend "I have good news to report. Glenn Beck appears closer to suicide. I'm hoping that he does it on camera....given his alcoholism and his tendencies towards self-destruction, I am only hoping that when Glenn Beck does put a gun to his head and pulls the trigger, that it’s on television, because somebody will capture it on YouTube and it will be the most popular little piece of video for months.

  • @hokiefan181 It shows that their are sick arseholes on both sides...Malloy is vitirolic, creep with a very small audience.

  • “Never retreat Nancy, just reload. The most productive Speaker of the House in modern history has no reason to retreat from leading her caucus.”

    Posted on the Huffington Post 2 months ago & still on the Huffington Post to this day.

    It looks like Loughner must have been a fan of the Huffington Post.

  • I think this is how Muslims who aren't fundamentalists would see the Republican's comments on them:

    Palin: Worse

    Gingrich: Worser

    Pam Gellar: Worst

    I think they'd be fine in Achmadinejad's house, however. Ever notice how much they have in common with the actual practitioners of Sharia Law? Oh, the irony.

  • did not the great sage Jesus teach love, respect and tolerance. Looks like he wasted his breath and died for nothing sometimes doesn't it ?

  • Is this all your leftists have? These are not even facts. but disparate leftists say desparate dumb things. This is part of the leftists trying to start street wars, but will not receive it. They will rise themself, and will lose war. Leftists are bunch of brainwash morons.

  • @macdogq some country. And you are trying to export democracy to Afghanistan when you can't even have respectful dialogue with each other. I'm from Canada and what I see from here is loads of stupidity coming from the likes of Sarah Palin and many others. Respect and intelligence has nothing to do with left or right. Unfortunately I see very little of it coming from the Republican party. Also from up here, I see much more brainwashing and outright lies coming from the Republicans. Very sad.

  • @claudelebel55 I gues it all depends on what you perssonaly want to hear. I do believe things will turn against the democrats in comming weeks. Midterm elections has already proven that, and will be also in 2012. American people are not stupid, and has voted out the democrats in midterm election for various reasons, including because of show like this one.

  • @macdogq I did not say that americans are stupid. What I did say is that we are seeing a lot of violence and stupidity coming from the mouths of many and mostly republican public figures.

  • @claudelebel55 There is a lot of why most Americans are upset, is because of shows like this one is usually quick to blame the conservative movement. Americans should be angry is because of mismanagment of this country. If you have any common since, you would STUDY mankind, and the bible so you can make common since dicisions.

  • @macdogq I agree. Shows like this that simply ridicule are not helpful but you have to admit that it is hard to resist making fun of the likes of Sarah Palin. Very hard. Why is it that it is the nutty ones who get most of the attention ?

    As has been said by many a great sage - love breeds love and hate breeds more hate and violence and disrespect breeds violence and disrespect. This is why it has to begin with each one of us. How can I expect the other side to start if I am not willing to.

  • @claudelebel55 That is the problem. this kind of shows need to go. I would vote for Palin on basis of her love for the country, and the fact is she is a pro-constitutional candidate. Leftists are just desparate for an issue to score political points. This will not help them but hurt the left.

  • @macdogq well, we obviously will not come to an agreement because for me Palin is a huge problem. Big on image and flashy statements and getting people worked up but empty of substance. I believe McCain was happy to loose because of her. Enough said.

  • @macdogq But no one still cannot judge based on what media or anyone said. This a terrible reality when every leftists media is so quick to judge, but they are the divider themself. I just ask you to not to be quick to judge Palin, or the left.

  • @macdogq PS there seems to be an attitude of "the end justifies the means" and isn't that what all terrorists believe. The end is so important, having it my way is so important, being right is so important, that to hell with democracy, that it's OK to attack people either phisically or verbally. That's what I see going on and it can only lead to more violence. All in all, a very unhealthy climate. Any family that behaved in this manner would be termed dysfunctional.

  • @claudelebel55 This country was never founded on democracy, this was founded throught constitution, and you need to remember that this is a people's government, not government of people. this is a land of laws, and never was intended for men. If we had a balance of society, there will never be a division.

  • @macdogq actually this show is not just ridiculing. He is also making some good points. There is so much abuse and distortion coming out of the radical republicans - he is not making it up. I see it. Don't you ? and it's terrible. Where are the sane republicans hiding out ? why are they not out there denouncing these nut cases ? Seems to me that the republican party has been hijacked don't you think.

  • you americans are sooooooooooooo devided there is no unity..there is no american flag...there is no patriotic feeling.. you people are all so twisted and hatefull to each other...

    ulch....vies...echt vies...te vies om nog langer engels te schrijven

  • There are already several Shinto Shrines near Pearl Harbor, and, even though the majority of us are of course sickened by Nazis and what they stand for, we would be compelled BY U.S. LAW to allow anyone to erect a Nazi display next to the Holocaust Museum if such a person purchased the land legally and followed all applicable development code ordinances. Nothing could stop us however, from getting a permit and protesting the display (peacefully) from the sidewalk. We're all Americans.

  • America is becoming more diverse with every generation, meaning the Republican party's base of FWC's (Frightened White Christians) steadily becomes a smaller and smaller percentage of the population. So it will be interesting to see what they do, considering how many bridges they've burned already.

  • @toddsmitts Only 37% of whites voted Democratic in this election; less than 1/3 without considering the North East. The GOP has done better among latinos (38%) and asians (40%). If the GOP is anti-minorities, it is fair to say that the Democratic Party is anti-white.

  • @xaviqaz Well what policies have the Democratic Party enacted that are specifically anti-white? And no, things like paying court-ordered restitution to black farmers do not apply.

  • @toddsmitts I didn´t give you my opinion

  • @xaviqaz holy smokes, the GOP won 38% of Latinos and 40% of Asians? Are you talking about 2010 or 2008? this is fascinating and new information to me. Would you mind providing a link to the website where you read this info? I would love to take a look myself. I would be grateful to you if you would provide the link to the relevant website so I can read for myself. Thanks.

  • @tyt12327 2010, national exit poll (more than 17,000 respondents) in CNN

  • @xaviqaz thanks for the info, xaviqaz. It sounds like you are someone that pays attention to polls and such.. would you mind posting the link or URL to the CNN Poll that confirms your information? I would love to take a look at the poll myself if you don't mind. Please post the link to the CNN Poll that you referenced in your last post. Thanks a lot.

  • @tyt12327 edition.cnn.com/ELECTION/2010/­results/polls/#USH00p1

  • @xaviqaz hi xaviqaz, does this link really work? I just tried it and it sent me to a "Page Not Found" error page on CNN. Would you mind double-checking this link for me? I am seriously curious about the poll you were referencing that said the GOP won 38% of the Latino vote and 40% of Asians in 2010. Honestly, I find this dubious, but if you provide the evidence, I cannot deny it! Please send me a link to the relevant poll, because the link you posted recently sends me to a "Page Not Found" error

  • @tyt12327 It's not that hard. Type "cnn election 2010" in google and find the national exit poll.

  • @xaviqaz if it's so easy, why did you post a broken URL? i just resarched CNN election 2010 exit polls, but I did not see an ethnic vote breakdown on a national level for 2010 exit polls. seriously, you're the closest I've gotten to a right-winger providing evidence on youtube, and I don't want to give up on u! please help me prove you right! I don't believe that 38% of Latinos would vote against themselves, but i want to be proven wrong by you! I honestly tried, but could not find proof 4 u!

  • @tyt12327 Oh please, is not that hard! Enter the CNN Election Center 2010 and pay attention to the options. By the way, the link works for me. I only say that in THIS election, the "party of hate" did better among latino and asian voters than Democrats among whites.

  • @xaviqaz haha what a liar.. you're saying that the link you posted works? --> edition.cnn.com/ELECTION/2010/­­results/polls/#USH00p1 typical right-winger, just make up a lie on the fly.. come on, I'm trying to prove you right, but instead of posting your own evidence, you can't find any, so you just send a broken link. then you demand "do your own research!" which I just did without finding any evidence.. it's OK, I guess you're a typicall right-winger that doesn't need facts, just Fox News! :-)

  • @tyt12327 you are a lazy troll

  • @xaviqaz haha super original! once again, deflect deflect! this whole conversation is about you providing ANY evidence that 38% of Latinos would vote for a GOP that demonizes them everyday. Of course, you have ZERO evidence, so you want to change the topic! Once again, if you post evidence that proves you are right, I will definitely concede and say "You are absolutely right"! Please, I want you to prove me wrong! Please help me help you! jokester :-)

  • @tyt12327 38% of latinos (44% of men) voted R, and 37% of whites (34% of men) voted D. Get over it

  • @xaviqaz haha i love how you can't find ANY evidence, not a shred.. even after I research FOR you, there's nothing! It's OK tho, i see you're doing the Fox News method.. just repeat over and over, without any supporting evidence.. and because you WANT to believe it, that's all you need.. I'm sure Sarah Palin will appreciate your ignorant vote in 2012! Go Palin, xaviqaz loves you and hates evidence, hates facts, which of course is why he's the quintessential Fox news viewer! what a loser! :-)

  • I predict that the GOP will be gone in about thirty, maybe forty, years.

  • @WordFromYourMother Could be if the Socialist-Progressives get their way. But we would also be calling each other comrade.

    This turk the jerk says Muslims are hated here. Jews are still hated much more and I have no clue why. Muslims like turk the jerk and his dad should be fearful for what is coming in the next few years because Muslims world wide are not denouncing the terrorists who have been killing us.

  • America is not a center-right country. That's a Republican talking point that's completely false. They won simply due to 60% of the Democratic vote not coming out, not with people turning into Republicans. Mid-terms are always strong with the Rich and retired.....guess who they are. Exactly.

    Just like Republicans are fiscal conservatives? Republicans haven't balanced a budget in 30 YEARS. Republicans DESTROY budgets and want to cut everything except tax cuts for the top 3%. They out right lie.

  • Anyonr knows which country is the most relegious outside of the islamic world?

    USA.

    More than 90% of americans believe in GOD and almost 30% believe in ghost :-)

    So, Cenk I don't agree that GOP is going away anytime soon.

    Another fact for you... In the 2010 elections, 1/3 of gays voted for republicans..... go figure...

  • The Republican Party of Abraham Lincoln was a center left party. He would hate the current GOP. The old Democratic Party was conservative and pro slavery.

    How ironic that the two major parties switched ideologies. Now the GOP is right wing and very conservative, while the Democratic Party has adapted the liberal ideology of the Abraham Lincoln Republican Party.

  • How did those mid term elections work out for ya???HAHHAHH!

  • Dear 52 racists and FOX-trolls, kindly stop voting.

  • MSNBC, their hosts, and their "reporting" (is this what reporting looks like - don't think so - LOL) SUCKS. What a lousy excuse for a news station - it's hilarious.

  • And America got her voice back and has spoken. It just gets lefty liberals getting their way or TRYING to get their way one too many times, to wake up the sensible Americans who know what this country is supposed to look like; how it's supposed to adhere to the Constitution; that it's a democracy - not a socialist state; that the President is there to veto bills or sign them into law, be commander in times of war and not to fundamentally change the USA; and that it's time to fix what's broken.

  • Strong words Cenk. Just to clarify it's the duty of Islam to persecute other faiths and to

    destroy faith and freedom to all infidels. Thats everybody thats not muslim. Your profit Cenk was a pedophile a rapist a murderer and a thief. Did I forget to mention pimp as well. Peace be on him though. I can see why people get a little nervous though it is clearly very wrong to discriminate based on religion.

  • I love how elections only seem to be legit if the GOP wins. If it proves we're center right when Republicans win, what does it prove when Democrats win?

  • The Rebuplican party has alwasy been a party of hate and intolerence.

  • @Epyon986 Actually, not always. It used to be the home of forward thinkers like Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt. In the early 20th Century, Republicans championed anti-lynching laws. As recently as the 1960's, some were supporting civil rights laws. That they used to be so great makes what they've become that much sadder.

  • @Epyon986 GOP "always" has been a party of hate and intolerance? Actually, the Republicans have been asleep for the last damn 5 decades as liberal garbage has taken hold of this country. But we've woken up now. As a Republican, I can say that I hate our sovereign immigration laws being broken everyday, I'm intolerant of socialist agendas for our nation, I'm intolerant of those who enable and cheer on these big-government-is-the-cure-to-­all ills, I'm intolerant of "redistribution". Any questions?

  • @10com40cal Ah, 5 decades ago, before "liberal garbage" took hold, when a black man couldn't sit at a lunch counter in much of the country, when schools were segregated, interracial marriage was illegal, and for women doing any job other than a secretary or waitress was a crazy dream, those were the better days, huh? No thanks.

  • @toddsmitts From your profile age, you weren't even there 5 decades ago. You can only read (bias) texts about it. Did you know that in 1875, two Republicans (House and Senate) proposed the Civil Rights Act of 1875, it passed. Was signed into law by Pres Ulysses S. Grant (Rep). Supreme Court ruled it unconstitutional.

    Pres Kennedy campaigned on enacting another civil rights act, didn't "get to it" until 1963. 18 Democrats filibustered the bill. Percentage wise, more GOP than Dems voted for it.

  • @10com40cal Ugh, the tired old "Republicans supported civil rights and Dems didn't" argument. If you knew ANYTHING about the parties up until the end of the 60's, you know both had their liberal and conservative wings back then. I pointed out myself that, besides Lincoln, many Repubs pushed for anti-lynching laws. It wasn't until the end of the 60's that the south started turning Republican. You're assuming that Dem = liberal and GOP = conservative. It wasn't always the case.

  • @toddsmitts OK, why don't you just tell me what YOU think (not what this Turk thinks) the GOP hates? Which race do we hate? What peoples do we hate? Where is all this hate you speak of?

    Give me proof that the Republican party is the party of hate. I want REAL proof, not some opinion, like this idiotic liberal spouts who uploads his videos but doesn't have the guts to defend his opinion on here. It's easy to talk to an audience who thinks like he does. So, what's the proof? Put up or shut up.

  • @10com40cal Uh, he just posted several clips here, along with many others showing right wing pundits vilifying other races and religions, and stirring up fear.  Ultimately, whether it's real hate or just rhetoric doesn't really matter. It has the same effect.

  • @10com40cal And regarding your above post, is it your belief those things DIDN'T happen? That there was NOT segregation at lucnch counters and in schools? No laws against interracial marriage and no disparity in wages and opportunities for women?

  • @toddsmitts The Southern states had that problem (segregation), but then again those were states held and governed by Democrats. I went to school in that era (50's, 60's), several schools, and no, there was no segregation at all.

    Yes, it did happen, but in Democrat states.

  • @10com40cal First of all, I didn't say segregation was EVERYWHERE. Second, you're STILL operating under the assumption that Dems were always liberal and Repubs always conservative, something clearly disproven by even a casual knowledge of history. In fact it was that phasing out of conservatives from the party, and the similar shift to the right in the GOP that turned the south Republican after decades of being the "solid south". I specifically mentioned how the GOP HAD been great once.

  • Phony liberals. Liberals are worse than hypocrites with their self-righteous, self-inflating compassion toward whatever group they happen to think are "suffering" at any particular time at the hands of the 'mean bad bully conservatives'. They think they wear robes of righteousness for all to see, when in fact their robes are dripping with blood.

  • @10com40cal Well considering conservatives vilify gays and Muslims, tell women what they can and can't do with their bodies, and pass laws that hurt even Hispanics that are here LEGALLY, it's kinda hard for Dems NOT to look good by comparison. Perhaps conservative should instead ask themselves what have THEY done to reach out to any of these groups. The white Christian isn't the only one with a vote, after all.

  • @toddsmitts Those babies had no say on what can and can't be done with their bodies, did they, you hypocrite. You are so compassionate for gays and muslims and illegal hispanics, yet have nothing to say about those babies that were ripped apart in the womb, butchered with knives, sucked out with a vacuum. Where's your compassion for them? If you have no compassion for the defenseless innocent ones, then you have NO compassion AT ALL. So don't preach to me, you phony.

  • @toddsmitts Not vilifying. Just pointing out error. You should know about pointing out error. Liberals are so good at it, at least you think you are. While you're pointing out error based on your lack of reasoning and common sense (have ALL liberals lost common sense???), think about this most horrid error on liberals' part - the death of over 52 million babies since your beloved Roe v Wade decision.

  • @10com40cal First, I'll say that an embryo (let alone a zygote) cannot survive outside the womb, so it's quite dubious to consider it a functioning being yet. Second, if you wanna talk numbers, 20 million women worldwide have unsafe abortions using coat hangers, etc. and 70,000 die a year, a number that would go up even further if abortion were banned in the developed world. (Now that's all I'll say on the bottomless pit that is the abortion debade). As for the other stuff... (con't)

  • @toddsmitts That's all you'll say on the abortion issue? Of course, just sweep the murders under the rug, cover it with a "won't talk about it anymore" attitude that has swept this country, on both parties. Well, the babies haven't forgotten, neither has the Lord God, which you probably don't believe in, am I right? So that's fine, let time pass and let the history of horror continue without a word. You still won't be off the hook. The issue of viability is liberal crap, always has been.

  • @10com40cal Maybe they just don't want their black and hispanic mothers reduced to having "back alley" abortions with coat hangers and bicycle spokes, leaving them at risk of fatal infections or bleeding to death.

  • @10com40cal And for such an anti-abortion side, conservative oddly also seem opposed to anything that might reduce DEMAND for abortion, like, say sex ed in school or birth control (check out the Coloardo candidate's platform).

  • @toddsmitts Birth control, and morals. Gee, novel solutions. If every woman in America is NOT aware of the complete ease in getting birth control to prevent unwanted pregnancies, what would you call that - stupid? Yep. Now how about USING the damn birth control, another novel idea. So easy to prevent a pregnancy, but they'd rather kill the child inside them. So much easier, don't have to remember to take your pill everyday. On this page TYT has "6 Reasons to Have Casual Sex". No morals=no sense.

  • @10com40cal (Part 2) When law-abiding Muslims are compared to terrorists or Nazis ( 2:08 ), and gays in the military are implied to somehow be untrustworthy ("TYT GOP Senator - Can't Trust Gay Soldiers "), and Hispanics in places like Arizona are profiled because they LOOK illegal, then yes, they're absolutely being vilified. As Cenk points out in the vid, why, in God's name, would ANYONE from ANY of these groups vote for a party that makes them out to be some sort of sinister boogey-man?

  • @toddsmitts So you decide to get upset at Newt's comments, although he WASN'T comparing one group to another (and you obviously misunderstood that point), but you don't defend the Japanese? You left them out, but as Americans know, the trendy liberal thing to do now is to defend the muslims. Poor Japanese, so in the past that they get not a word from you in their defense. Should they? NO.

    Should Nazis? NO. Should muslims? NO.

    Why would you only choose muslims to defend? Have they done no wrong?

  • @10com40cal 500 characters is far too few to note every group Republicans have offended, so I'm sticking to the ones specifically mentioned in this vid.

    "Have Muslims done no wrong?" Have Christians, Jews, Hindus, or ANY religion done no wrong? Conservatives however seem incapable of telling extremists from everyday people,  Should no churches be built near the Olympic grounds in Atlanta or the site of the Alfred P Murrah Building in Oklahoma City?

  • @toddsmitts You didn't answer my question "Why would you choose only muslims to defend?".

    As far as the bombings in OK City and Atlanta, one guy in each scenario. Loners in their acts and lives.

    9/11 - many more than some lone lunatic, and many more than the 19 in the planes in the preparation of it. Then muslims dancing in the streets in other countries (not just in Palestine), jubilant. No muslim condemning the act. Denial and dancing. Such a great group. Google Bin Laden's Letter to America.

  • @10com40cal No muslims condemning it, huh? You must have missed the DOZENS of muslim groups, scholars and leaders (political and religious) condemning terror in general and 9/11 in particular. In Palestine, there were candlelight vigils and schoolchildren observed 5 minutes of silence. Even in Tehran, fans at the largest soccer stadium observed a minute of silence.

    But, hey, who cares? They're all America-hating terrorists, right?

  • @toddsmitts Do you know anything about islam? Have you read their "peaceful" quran? Do you know anything about sharia law? Do you know what they're doing in Europe and how the Europeans feel about it? Do you know what the Chancellor of Germany recently said about it? Do you know about taqiyya, which muslims believe in and practice in order to propagate their religion? Do you know about the islamic principle of naskh (abrogation)?

    For months after 9/11, I watched the news 24/7. Guess I missed it.

  • @10com40cal So people can use Islam to justify barbarism, huh? Good to know. Good thing nobody's ever used the BIBLE in such a way! (By the way, you've never worked on the Sabbath. have you?)

  • @10com40cal I never said YOU were trying to justify it. You were saying others did. And for the record, the only thing I lean towards is recognizing that EVERY major religion has ugly parts that can be interpreted as justification for terrible acts. But the VAST majority of people of all religions are not interested in hurting anyone else. They're just trying to live their lives as best they can.

    And no, I don't think 23% of the world's population wants to kill or conquer the rest.

  • @toddsmitts Laws that hurt legal immigrant hispanics...really? Give me proof of that "hurt". If you mean feelings, don't want to hear about it. If you mean physically hurt, prove it. Cite some examples of how this has happened.

    You're spouting what you've heard from liberal media brainwashers (mostly from hispanic "organizations"). You DO understand that they are the largest group of illegals (millions) here, right? So if they're breaking ANOTHER law, why is checking their legal status wrong?

  • Excellent commentary, Cenk! You hit the nail on the head. Republicans are a dying breed. I won't miss those selfish, lying pricks one bit!

  • Every night MSNBC televises nothing but HATE!! Big Ed, Mr. Maddow, Olberman, Chris (Tingle Down My Leg) Mathews, Dylan Ratigan.

  • And Democrat is the party of love.

  • Democrats started the KKK.

    That's all I have to say.

  • @st4ticblu3

    and now they vote Republican

  • Liberals living a lie. Don’t kid yourself; Liberals are using you just for your vote.

    A false hope because you are nothing but a loser in life looking for the government to bail your ASS out. Now understand you have been used for many years, the Liberal party is nothing but a lie based on false hope the government will take care of you, America is based on conservative values and always will be. Obama told you what you wanted to hear to get elected. Obama not Liberal enough? Get it?

  • @xxxmailbin You are trolling. You are not doing anything other than being counter-productive. Going from all the vids on this playlist, speaking your mind as if we haven't heard these lines before. If any of you had any decency or initiative to spawn a productive conversation things could be better. Since you only choose to chastize and offend those that you disagree with making you nothing but a fucking shill. We arent listening to you as long as you construct your dialouge this way.

  • @splicedenergy sorry you feel that way; shame to see what Cenk and Schultz done to a very small group of empty bag holders.

    Nov 2, 2010

  • @xxxmailbin You're a dying breed. If you think your physic, get your head checked.

  • @splicedenergy And you wonder why I don’t take people like you serious, just like America does not take Cenk and Redneck Schultz serious. A dying breed; tell that to the polls.

    I can only sit and wonder whether or not you advised Cenk and Redneck Schultz who daily chastise and offend those that disagree; the single reason for the shows failure.

    Get well soon.

  • @xxxmailbin If you actually listened to what he said, it's that demagoguery DOES work in the short term.  Stirring up fears to gain power is one of the oldest tricks in the book for a reason: it works. The problem is, long-term, it's self-defeating. The GOP forfeited the majority of the black vote, the gay vote, the Muslim vote, etc. because the people who hate them were easier to court. The catch is haters eventually become marginalized, forcing Repubs to move on to another wedge issue.

  • @xxxmailbin Actually America is based on the rights of the individual. Unfortunately, the GOP's policies for the last few decades have shown they don't give a sh!t about the rights of the individual, unless he's a rich, white, straight, Christian.

  • @toddsmitts Nov 2, 2010 will prove you wrong.

    The phony left media will agree with you, majority of Americans do not agree that the GOP don’t care about the middle class. America is a center right Country. America is clearly rejecting Obama; Nov 2, 2010 will prove America is a center right Country.

    America is tired of the old racists hate spin media such as MSNBC, NBC, CNN, ABC,CBS; the single reason for your comment. America is rejecting Obama's policies.

    Democrats use minorities.

  • @xxxmailbin The midterms may indeed be good for Repubs, just as they were in '94, but you haven't refuted ANYTHING I've said. You can gripe about how Dems "use" minorities, but a better question is, what have Republicans done to even try to earn the minority vote? Why should a black man vote for the party of the Southern Strategy? Why should a gay man vote for a party that denies his right to marry? Why should a Muslim vote for the party that suggests he's a lesser American?

  • @toddsmitts There is no gripe; Individuals who believe the GOP is racists Southern Style strategy towards African Americans are miss informed by people just like you. The majority of Americans believe in marriage between a man and woman; Gay individuals are mentally sick and are not able to share the majority’s views. Many Americans believe Obama is a Muslim, President of the United States; Imagine that.

    Nov 2, 2010 tidal wave is all about policies; not Race, Gay or Muslim beliefs.

  • @xxxmailbin In the same paragraph, you reference the large number of people who believe INCORRECTLY that Obama is a Muslim, yet accuse "people like me" of "miss informing" people?

    And one of those "mentally sick" people was head of your party and ran Bush's reelection campaign, so evidently he held a number of the same views they did. And if you think Mehlman is the only gay man in the GOP, you got another thing coming.

  • @xxxmailbin And yes, many minorities may hold socially conservative views, but do you really think agreeing on things like the definition of marriage is going to trump things like say cutting funding to their kids' school?

  • @xxxmailbin God you have no idea what the word 'Fact' means. Republicans are the Scientologists of politics. You're what ruined this country. Go watch Fox, there's no hope for you. You're far too brainwashed.

  • @liquifex Chump; Republicans conservative minds built America. TYT Cenk and Redneck Schultz feeds off losers just like you playing racists, hate to push far left ideology single reason this video. Phony left drive by media’s job, divide failures from the majority. I warned your ASS weeks ago; America is a center right country.

    Understand this ‘Fact” Chump; America is going to kick the far left’s ASS until you no longer exist “my second warning to all the failures”.

    Get well soon.

  • @xxxmailbin Hey "Chump", you're a complete moron who's trying so desperately to sound intelligent. You 'make-up' facts, Chump. Try harder. Conservatives and Republicans are 2 very different things, Chump. You can be a Conservative Democrat, Chump. Do you know what that means? Of course not, Chump. But keep on trying, haha. God you're so stupid. Another scientologist of the political world. Brainwashed lemming.

  • @liquifex America voted against everything you stand for Chump. You are very emotional; thin skin just like Obama. I know you feel very smart, just don’t understand why you need the government to take care of your loser ASS. 600+ seats taken by GOP.

    Listen Chump; I see losers just like you every day. I believe in free market capitalism, Conservative Democrats are far and few these days. Republicans kept Clinton’s ASS in check, stick the 30 years up your ASS.

    Get well soon Chump.

  • @xxxmailbin You're a closet homosexual, aren't you? I can guarantee it. Your type, the "conservatives" who claim to be so pure are the ones who pick up hookers and smoke meth, while you bash someone else for doing it. You're a sheep. A republican lemming, haha. You think your GOP is for cutting spending when they haven't balanced a budget in 30 years. You're a joke "Chump". The typical hypocrit who's fucking up the country.

    Good luck Chump. Glen Beck's about to start, hurry along.

  • @liquifex Cenk and Redneck Schultz need you to stick around listen to their bias racists hate spin show. Listen Chump, Cenk and the Redneck post daily video attacks to target Chumps just like you to divide minorities from the majority. Cenk and Redneck Schultz ratings in the doldrums.

    Have no plans to fuck the country up; just going to fuck your political agenda up.

    Hypocrite is the word you’re looking for, amazing how smart you feel.

    Get some therapy; you will thank me later.

  • Why don't we ask Richard Steele what he thinks!

  • Conservatives believe in liberating the individual, liberating them from all government protection so they can be raped by powerful corporations.

  • @sacredskeptic Both Obama & Bush are Corporatists - an unholy alliance between big business and govt; however, all economies since the founding of the Republic have been Corporatist - it's just become exponentially worse over the past 10 years.

  • Government is the only 'public" corporation powerful enough to take on the private ones. Private interests have tried to infiltrate our government and destroy it from the inside (like when bush put industry in charge of overseeing itself, or Obama put wall street insiders in charge of overseeing finance reform)-the government is not the problem- the people running it are). Unfortunately the tea party misses the point-and is replacing anyone they can with corporatists and/or crackpots-bad idea

  • @sacredskeptic Your are so right. To me it's a no brainer. What the hell are the teabaggers thinking?

  • sarah palin at 0:22 looks like shes ready to suck some heinous racist dick

  • Republican Party = White Christian Privilege Party

  • @jovialduke Conservatism (Tea Party + Republican party) = A big tent. It is the only antidote to tyranny. It is about having a stable society. It is about the individual. It is about maximizing liberty in the context of a moral & order society. It is about an economic market system that produces more goods, services & technologies that is more generous, helpful, and productive to average people than any other model on Earth, and it is the most humane system as well.

    ...continued

  • @Politics4Dummies It is the only philosophy that respects man's nature and seeks to nurture it and allow it to bloom. It is the other view of Obama and Cenk that seeks to control, torment, abuse, and break the human spirit. Conservatives embrace the genius of John Locke, Edmund Burke, Adam Smith and the Founding Fathers. Who does the other side embrace? They embrace Hegel, Marx, The Fabian Society, and the Progressives.

    .....continued

  • @Politics4Dummies Conservatives believe in liberating the individual. They believe in control. We believe in keeping what you earn. They believe in stealing it. We believe in American citizenship. They believe in global citizenship. We believe in American greatness. They believe in American arrogance. We believe in representative govt. They believe in Big govt. We believe America liberates & protects the world's victims, they believe we're imperialists and colonialists.

    ...cont

  • @Politics4Dummies We believe in limited govt. They believe in unfettered govt. We believe the people are in control, they believe in controlling the people.

    The U.S. has been confronting a counter-revolution to the American Revolution that rejects the limits placed on govt by the Constitution and rejects the notion of unalienable rights given to us by God.

    So, as you can see, Conservatives are not just White, privileged Christians, but just Americans and it is open to all.

  • @Politics4Dummies It's so laughably wrong that I shouldn't have to point it out to you. The Republican Party has done far more damage to the constitution and civil rights then the Democratic Party over the past decade. Especially with the passing of the PATRIOT ACT. The No Child Left Behind Policy essentially threw education standards out the window.. And they called for an unnecessary war against Iraq, totally unrelated to Afghanistan. They hide behind small government while advocating it.

  • @halo07guy2 I could not agree with you more. If the Tea/Republican Party does not address these issues head on, then there will be hell to pay.

    The Pledge to America will require Congress to site specific constitutional authorit that undergirds each piece of legislation. This would have prevented Pre-emptive Strikes without the authority Congressional declaration of war. The Patriot Act, along with initially detaining enemy combatants at Gitmo without Habeas Corpus rights.

  • @Politics4Dummies However, there are many things missing in the Pledge to America, such as term limits, the elmination of the Patriot Act, and a balanced budget amendment to name a few that makes the Pledge to America a betrayal to the T Party. The Republicans did themselves no favor yesterday with this Pledge because it just appears to be business as usual in Washington. It's like the cartoon where Lucy keeps telling Charlie Brown to kick the football, and at the last moment she pulls it away!

  • @Politics4Dummies The Tea Party planted their flag in the Republican Party so that they would not split the party as Perot did in 1992 - and so far that has proven to be very wise as this year's turnout for the Democratic primaries, as a % of voters, was the lowest ever recorded, whereas the Rep. turnout was the highest since 1970.

    The Pledge to America will force the Tea Party to rethink placing their flag within the Republican Party. They will move their flag. The question is when?

  • @halo07guy2 And the new administration continues them. That are all the same. Globalist puppets. Until people realize that, they are just watching a show.

  • Cenk: What you do not seem to understand since you were not born in the USA is that you don't fuck with New Yorkers, and by putting a mosque at Ground Zero without the Freedom Towers being built or the World Trade Center being re-built is the same as shaking a hornets nest. Also, as long as the you guys want to build a mosque at Ground Zero, the passion against it will never die down. You really underestimate the American people. We are "do what we want assholes" and we are not afraid of you.

  • @Politics4Dummies Cenk came to America at the age of 8. Am I mistaken, do American-born kids of 8 and under know something he could not possibly understand having not lived in the USA from that early age, or are you just another bitter anti-immigrant xenophobe? Cenk IS American.

  • @jovialduke If one goes to college and receives a degree in business, they learn to appreciate capitalism. I just don't see how somebody who can go to business school like Cenk did come out with such a hatred for capitalism and the American values it represents? Sure, he might be an American, but not by birth, and he harbors many anti-American sentiments. You must be a bureaucrat, teacher, college professor or somebody too young in college to know any better?
