  • Great trailer man!! going to watch this in webmovietube

  • dude, these are hilarious!! saw this in webmovietube

  • But he voted for her...

  • Hopefuly this will show these people how well Ms. Sotomayor performs when wisdom and inteligence is required .

  • Ms. Graham, didn't someone teach you any manners when you were growing up in South Carolina?

  • Linda Graham was much funnier before her sex change surgery.

  • For the record, Senator Graham voted FOR Justice Sotomayor. So in the end, your little liberal spin on Graham's questioning is irrelevant.

  • So in the end, Graham was being a dick for absolutely no reason other than being a dick. In other words, HIS questioning was irrelevant. He has a voice like a leprechan.

  • in the end things happen for a reason. He was challenging her to see how she would react to him being a dick.

  • Sen Graham is a hypocrite

  • Congratulations, Madam Justice.

  • the young jerks defend a racist judge .

  • As opposed to that racially tolerant Rush Limbaugh, which hypocrite neo-Cons idolise?

  • Wow! He is talking about her judicial temperament, not anything personal. This was not racist, sexist, anything. If you can't question a person's judicial record/temperament, why the hell have a confirmation hearing?? Just let King Obama appoint whomever he so desires and if anyone questions them it's off to the gas chambers.

  • You cant read between lines? You can attack someone about their temperament, but subliminaly attack them as far as race, keyword, subliminal. Its not supposed to be visual to the naked eye, its supposed to be under the surface. And people like Sotomayor know this goes on, but she feels that it isnt worth it to expose it all. Personally, Id show em' up, like Alford did against Barbara Boxer.

  • yeah gas chambers... way to be a drama queen.

  • WHAT'S WITH LINDSAY GRAHAM'S TOUPEE?

  • my condolences for senator Graham and his Klu Klux Klan supporters... the wise latina got her confirmation for US Supreme Court... i forget her term is for life....

  • @riosgirald

    Um, Senator Graham voted for her, actually. And although I see you trying to portray conservatives as KKK members, he's not very popular with conservatives.

  • Lawyers are worse than Pigs. Now all of you can suck my big 9" dick and I was republican after this I changing to democrat and i will convince all my family and friends to become democrats. Republicans are Latin and blacks haters therefore they can suck my dick.

  • Sotomayor has just been confirmed now!! so, i hope you choke on your yourself Sen graham and eat a dick while its happening too you old lying ass fart!!!

  • The NRA will punish any senator that votes for sotomayor confirmation.

    People may take this as a threat of violence no we as group will vote for other senators come reelection time who are more interested in our god given rights per the constitution.

    So remember senators mark our words vote for her and you will be looking for a new job come reelection time. Vote for her and lose 33 million votes

  • please remind me who gives a flying fuck about the NRA?

  • Sotomayor CONFIRMED

    Eat your heart out.

    don't worry, we'll be getting rid of a lot more Republicans in 2010, don't worry.

  • Comment removed

  • gun+your face=world peace

  • este que esta hablando es un payaso buscon

  • America ~~ STILL a incidiously racist country.

    ~~

    Ffs, SORT IT OUT!!!

  • Where is there an unracist country? Were not most countries built on recognition of identity? This is what makes the "melting pot" experience so much racism. It's not a natural thing.

  • lindsey is indeed a cocksmoker

  • Hey Lindsey, How about appearing before a Congressman, who looks like an old lesbian, Who's a BULLY??? What's even worse one who'sAlso A Bigoted Racist ?

  • Did anyone see Stephen Colbert's response to Lindsay Graham. It was one of the funniest things that I have seen!

  • so what she will get what she wants in the end

  • The party has no choice but to approve Sotomayor. By doing this, I don't expect the party to gain anything. But, if it doesn't do it, it stands to lose some of the 30% of Hispanics who support the party

  • The Republican party has painted itself into a corner as your comments imply.

    The party can not win an election with only conservative white male voters.

    The party must expand its base, but in order to do so it must alter a few of its core values. The party has been taken over by people whose values are not shared by the majority of Americans and these people may not allow a shift in values.

  • Graham sounds like a lesbian.

  • Lindsay Graham DOES look like an old lesbian

  • After seeing hey whole quote about "wise Latino", I have concluded it was NOT a racist statment. THe last line where she says "a white male WHO DIDNT HAVE THE SAME EXPERIENCE" saved her. She was implying a white male that did have her experience could judge things as well. Thats not racist. And i am a hard conservative and saying this!

    My take? She is not a racist.

  • I think Jenk Uger has a temperature problem!!

  • lets hope so, for bigots have no end. anger aimed intentively gets rid of tyrants...

  • graham is such a creepy fucker if his constituates are ok with his questions then im really concerned. she is a really patient person if it was me and i was asked this idiotic questions i would not be so kind in my reesponses

  • Holier than thou , hillbilly rescumlicans.

  • obvious troll is obvious.

  • What a moron. Obvious troll is obvious.

  • Here's a mature comment...Graham gives me the willies

  • John McCain, does not have the judicial power, even as a president, that a supreme court justice have.

  • that would have been funny as hell if she just jumped up and started whipping his ass when he asked her if she thought she had a temperament problem.

  • Looking at her face, I can believe she's be a nasty judge to face. I wouldn't have her for dogcatcher.

  • OBAMA'S SMART! HE KNOWS Republicans are OBVIOUSLY afraid of Sotomayor, because they're afraid that the Latinos who traditionally vote Republican (but who bucked party interests in the 2008 Election, in favor of their OWN to voted DEMOCRAT) will see her as the true PROGRESSIVE she is (and as a valuable REWARD for voting for Obama), BE INSPIRED BY HER RESOLVE, AND LEAVE THE REPUBLICANS FOR GOOD! Because of their antics, Republicans SHOULD be VERY afraid; they pretty much GUARANTEED it WILL happen!

  • Anonymous sources? As far as I'm concerd Graham made this thing up because that's the kind of person he is, a liar.

  • Well, It must be okay to LIE....if you're gonna be a supreme court justice.

  • If any one of us You Tube assholes perjured ourselves like this Sotamayor bitch, we'd be going to jail not a position on the highest court.

  • Could you please refer to any one of those "perjuries", please.

  • Yes, which one would you like?

  • We have a two party system, so one party can propose a crazy ideas and the other party stops them. If the Republicans no longer belive in that, then why have them?

  • They should rename the Republican Party, from the Grand old Party to the Go Along to Get Along Party.

    It is no longer acceptable for the Republican party to just posture, suggest, oppose, argue, express outrage, and DO NOTHING!

  • 5:15 LMAO

  • Way to go! I love it when they get caught being hypocritical.

  • We had a terrible choice for President in the past election. John McCain a war hero who spent several years as a "guest" at the Hanoi Hilton. He endured years of torture. I can not imagine what those prisoners had to endure. I imagine I would be a bit pissed off and have a quick temper had I been through that. I do not think he would make a good President.

    The other guy is an empty suit who's prior experience consisted of community organizing and casting "present" votes in the state senate..

  • End of Times; Apocalypse.

    Obama carries the MARKS OF THE BEAST.

    This video will change your world and your life too soon.

    See it at my page's video.

  • Well you should go ahead and off yourself so you'll get to heaven faster. Beat the others to the rapture. IMO.

  • no i don't think good idea

    u have anything interesting to say or just trash like that garbage u just wrote ?

    u a moron ?

  • no need to hasten things, obama is ripe to fall any time now

    today trouble for him in the news

    soldier refuses to obey him

    box of worms for him tomorrow in the headlines bec of that

    left wing press gone crazy over that

    bad news to broadcast to people that the president POTUS can't produce ID

    smells rotten for obama now

  • Graham will most likely vote for Sotomayor so let us keep this all in perspective.

  • If she doesn't get this then the farce will have become reality.

  • i think she's writing i want to punch lindsey graham over and over again

  • Ha ha temperament,so what America is full of rude white bitches,at least Sotomayor is a top judge in this country.This racists cant stand a Latina as one of the most powerful person in the United States of America. And Lindsay ?,I thou this was a girl name.

  • I don't know if they have problems with Latinas on the bench. I think they have a problem with her bias and prejudice rulings.

  • Oh get off it. There hasn't been one case that any prejudice and bias could be seen. I bet you still believe that Obama is a muslim too huh? I'm sorry, you might not be that moronic, but where the hell are you getting your information to make such an ridiculous claim?

  • Well I read her quote on one case "Maloney v. Cuomo" in 2009. In this case, a man got arrested for possessing a nunchuck for martial arts. This is clearly unconstitutional under amendment 2. She claimed that the right to bear arms did not apply to the states. But any Yale law school student would know under amendment 14 the constitution applies to ALL STATES!! Now, with all due respect. I like the idea of a Hispanic justice, but not is she's biased and if that doesn't prove it, what does?

  • You'll never beat racism, so just join it!

  • Graham: condescending a^^hole.

  • Cenk, wake up. Maybe they aren't hating on Sotomayor just because she is latina but maybe because she isn't right for that position.

  • Maybe... But no, she is probably the most qualified!

  • Haha, did anyone else just see Pat Buchanan on msnbc with Rachel. He made it painfully obvious he doesn't want Sotomayor on because she's a Latino.

    Wow, the country is just going down hill fast.

    Maybe 2012 is really comming. Ya never know.

  • Yes, you gotta love Rachel. She had an excellent argument, in fact, the best argument for affirmative action. I felt sorry for Pat, he seemed like a total bigot. I actually think this whole Republican charade only makes them look bad...as white men bigots. Also, it's funny that Graham talks about her being a "bit of a bully", when he is being the bully in this case.

  • why the FUCK should I see a Newt Gingrich ad under my TYT video clip?

  • LOL thats wat i thought when I saw it too, they have other ads from some stupid conservative website called Sodahead, it's real annoying...

  • WoW I love how RACISTS use the word temperment when discribing minorities

  • he should have picked a more attractive judge

  • theres a difference when someone with a vivid understanding of the law like anton scalia feels emotional about a case and an admitted racist like sotomayor goes into a racialy motivated tirade and says things like "shes wiser than any white person because shes latino"

  • What an asshole.

  • I can't believe the shit this woman has been dragged through - she got the position, f***ing leave it alone and let her do her job, THEN pass judgement on her. Any white (republican!) male could behave in EXACTLY the same way and not get a fraction of the hassle. It's so transparent, and just...pathetic.

  • Scalia is a white guy, he can be an asshole and get a pass.

  • Say what u want about Cenk but he is so great at his reporting. He really pays attention and recalls things with attention to detail. His team is very excellent. Even if u disagree with him he presents good arguments and thats why I subscribe to this guy.

  • This is part of the process folks, and while we may think that he is being rude, these are questions that ALL the judges are asked.

    She does not deserve special treatment and frankly, I wouldn't want someone on the bench who gets it.

  • Wow! This man just read out a list of personal insults from lawyers who obviously didn't get things their own way - THIS is the best these guys can do? Pathetic.

  • I wish she would have just called him out and suggested a more reputable source than his anonymous lawyer almanac. What a fucko.

  • As biased as the Young Turks are, they do some damn good journalism.

  • I know this guy is so great I cant figure out why he doesnt have over 50,000 views a video.

  • Technically he does on his own site.

  • CENK YOU'RE THE BEST

  • Has Sen. Graham got a combover? Let's see some footage of him on a windy day.

  • Graham is a fcked up knobhead

  • there is no left or right. you are being hoodwinked. wake up.

  • wow that guy is such a dick lets stone him lol

  • lololololol!!!! lindsay graham asshole of the century.lol

  • I love how the whole time he's saying all that, the camera has a static shot of Sotomayor, and she's completely calm and collected.

  • Lindsay lol

  • These people that nit pick at her have nothing on her>.>. Out of all the things they've said to her she held her head high and was very respectable to them even though they clearly weren't. I've been watching this for the last few days and it's just so racist and borderline sexist at what these people are doing to her. They just randomly finding things that may make her look bad. But from what I seen of her on tv and from before all this she'll be a great judge.

  • Well they completely disregard that the American Bar Association gave her the highest rating they can to a judge along with the New York Bar.

  • You're wrong. You don't understand the process.

  • the process isn't that hard to figure out. Don't make assumptions about people if u don't know them. please.

  • Your grammar is disgusting for a University student.

  • Oh, wow. Sue me. My grammar. has never been the best. Try making a full discussion. like an adult. Instead of just making blunt statements and trolling. If u wish to have a chat with me that is fine. But at least make yourself seem respectable. Instead of like that of a child. I guess that is to expecting from someone born with the year 1989 in there user name. If u have nothing kind to say i have nothing more to say to you.

  • My intellect pales in comparison to a cosmetics specialist.

    You began your argument with "oh, wow." This makes you a moron by default.

    You should ignore me now because if you don't it only means that I win.

  • Thank fuck that cunt graham has absolutely no say whatsoever and never will again.

  • I did not know it was humanly possible to have your head that far up your ass, Graham proves me wrong.

  • 5:16 lmfao

  • He only did this because Rush Fatass jumped all over him for being easy on her and saying that she's a shoe-in.

    Scumbag.

  • Fuck him! he needs to go die.

  • Grahams an angry white man who's threatened by anyone of color. Seems to be the modus these days.

  • These republican morons just don't quit. You can't be on the bench your a hot tempered Latina give me a break.

  • if they have a southern accent in the senate

    the its 99.9% its a republican

  • She should have leaped over that table and choked the cracker for his absurd remarks about her anger issues.

  • LOL! How ironically right you are!

  • Lindsay is a girl's name... and graham is a cracker.

  • condescending, patronizing, and doing NOTHING for the GOP image problem of being a southern, white, male party

  • Why is it that Graham can get away with just the blanket statement that she "stands out like a sore thumb"? Doesn't he have any numbers? How many total reviews were there? Were they spread out over many years or were they lumped together?

  • Graham is an idiot

  • I know, and he has a girl's name, what's up with that??

  • Graham is such an arrogant asshole.

  • why bother even covering supreme court confirmations? It's always straight partisan politics. the arguments are always bullshit.

  • Do Republicans secretly compete with each other to see who can be the most unpleasant?

    The modern republican party seems to be full of people who are proud of how nasty and anti-social they are.

  • Yes, we have a complete reversal of the 1960s communication styles, when people like Abbie Hoffman were, in the interest of irreverence, extremely verbally aggressive and conservatives (at least in the north east) were the people in the room who could always be counted upon to behave like civilized human beings.

  • Sen Graham is a posterboy to keep abortion legal.

    Some humans just have no legitimate reason to exist, and Graham is one of them.

  • Fuck Graham.

  • What bothers me about Graham's litany of negative comments on Sotomayor was that they were cherry-picked, making it biased.

    WHO made those comments? Did he pull them out of his ass? He says that in some almanac of the Federal Judiciary , "lawyers anonymously rate judges and here's what they said about you" (as if it was unanimous). Later, he says and contradicts himself "In fairness to you, there are plenty of statements in support of you".

    What a fucking jackass!

  • people of spanish heritage which would be a mixture of spain and the new world

  • he read 20 excerpts of a 400 comment pamphlet......its easy to read all the bad ones and none of the good ones.........good job lindsey, youre a fag just like your dad phil

  • LOL this guy is a bullied elementary school kid grown up.

  • Who can like a lawyer?

  • Don't you wish these clips could be brought up in this hearing and shown to these bigoted Republicans...call them out on their own words, that they convienently forget when dealing with a Democratic nomanie.

  • Did Graham have any information about her collegues? Probably not.

  • What a condescending, smug, arrogant jerk--lecturing her on manners based on anonymous postings by lawyers who have come up against her. It's also quite possible she's percieved as a bully because she's a Latina woman--if she were a man they'd just view her as assertive.

  • The "only reason" Graham mentions it is because she isn't a Republican nomanie. If they showed anymore prejudice, they would implode.

  • What is Hispanic? Is it just someone who speaks Spanish?

    There is no latino/latina/hispanic race. It is hardly even ethnicity.

  • That was too awesome.

    Republicans play the victim card, ALL THE TIME, and the mainstream media let's them get away with it, with this popular saying...

    Well both sides do it, so both sides are to blame.

    Why is it, when Republicans fuck up, both parties are to blame, but when Democrats fuck up, they need to resign for the good of the country.

    Speaking as a Hispanic, I will never vote Republican, because their entire party is stained with racism.

  • Graham looks like one of the douche-bag that got his ass kicked when he was a kid (for being a little prick) and probably still these days.

  • what a douchebag

  • The only thing that stands out is how the Republicans are using race and hate against this woman,when they know that cant find anything else on her. All of the Republican clowns are doing are kissing up to their base and to Rush Limbaugh. The rest of the world are laughing at the Republicans now and they realize that they are the clueless and cowardly party as of this moment.

  • But the double standard on racisim goes into play forsure here. If the tables were turned and a white person said what she said they wouldnt even be considered for the job. And theres no deneying that. Now im not saying that shes totaly pejudice but the fact is she said it.

  • When you talk about closet-queers, Lindsay Graham stands out like a sore sphincter uh I mean thumb.

  • I keep reading these insinuating things about Graham being in the closet on Youtube. Is there actually anything to it or is it just rumors like the McCain black daughter? Is it just more gay baiting?

  • I sure would love it if Sotomayor, after ALL those different senators asked her about the same "wise latina" remark, she read that quote of Sen. Graham from the Alito confirmation hearings to them. Damn it would be sweet to watch her throw their hypocrisy back in their faces. But, of course, it would only enrage and strengthen the Republican opposition. Plus, she has too much class to do that. I don't though, so I sure would love to see it.

  • Let's talk about Linday Graham. What is he even doing. i say we sign him up for a job as human cannon ball. i personally would take care of the landing for him, with an "ow that must have hurt!"

  • He doesent sate any examples jof this behavior from sotomyr. just that some judge somwhere anynomsly through this out there and so it must be true. I thought in this country we belived that a defendant had the right to be prsented with evidence against them by their accuser. Could you imagine if the dems had used a bunch of anynomous quotes against allito or roberts. I f they had called them racist or terroprists

  • Sen Graham is a little bitch.

  • And this clip shows clearly how dipicable linsey ghram is. He says here this group where lawyers ANONOMISLY rate judges and here is what 1 said about u. Then he says that in your deffence there alot (I would bet alot more) that say good things about u but ghram is going to accept the one negative one as fact and disgaurd the rest. Also I would very much like 2 know where this opinion came from and if it came after she was nominated.

  • Im not going to claim any knowledge of Sotomayor before she was picked ... but the more I hear her speak the more I like her.

  • not in all cases but in most people that are completely against affermative action are not agaisnt it because white men are just so oppresed in society. They are mad that their right to oppress minorities has been taken away from them. Also there have been many afermative action cases of reverse descrimnation agaisnt whites that have been ruled in their favor because of affermative action.

  • She had great reviews for years and years, but had terrible reviews this past year. I think a few lawyers were mad at her and got nasty about it in the review. All her fellow appeal court judges deny that she is a mean judge.

    Senator Graham knows that very well.

  • Ms.Graham has the Vapors......he's a fucking self hating closet case!

  • Sen. Graham's concerns bear further study. But lawyers complaining (anonymously) about a judge sounds like sour grapes.

  • Attack lawyers.....isn't that a good thing?

  • Lindsay Graham is a mens room toe-tapper!

  • Those anonymous comments are all POV. If someione doesn't like the way they're being ruled against, they're likely to toss bad reviews in the hat.

    As for Lindsey Graham, I've met the man. I'd say that he's a total git, but that would be an insult to total gits worldwide.

  • wasn't she on WIll and Grace?

  • Graham needs to go down that road, any road and never come back.

  • All judges are menacing to some people. To me, for example. I never liked judges. I guess because I was barked at in court once for truancy in high school. I even got so nervous recently when I went to clear a traffic ticket that I asked a really stupid question when I was up there. That's just personal. It's quite stupid to professionally attack a potential supreme court judge for previously doing their job, and through "anonymous" critics.

  • I think Sen. Graham is a closet-case. I think when he's alone in his office, he dresses up like his mommy and asks Larry Craig to spank him. Which is weird when you think about it, because they both seem to be "bottoms." Gimme a break. I mean, really, is anybody really fooled by this bullshit? The older I get, the more like stupid dinosaurs these guys look to me.

  • Comment removed

  • If she attacks lawyers, she can't be all bad!

  • nice comb-over

  • this ass keeps interupting her

  • Nasty to lawyers eh?

    Let her go!!!

  • Can you send this clip to Graham or his people?

    This makes me so angry and I don't even live in USA.

  • I'm sure that is Ricky Gervais.

  • graham is a faggot

  • dopeskies - thanks - I was on my computer for less than a minute when I read your comment calling Graham a "faggot". I almost forgot that I am the lowest form of life because I am gay. Thank you for reminding me that the best criticism of this vile man is to say that he is like me. Why criticize his interviewing techniques when you can just use a insult that also attacks all gay people.

  • theres a difference between bein a faggot & bein gay.
