Lobbying should be illegal. Let we the people speak, as this country's intention was created to be.

We gotta hunt these people down.....

SOPA wouldn't only screw over the US citizens. It'd screw over the entire world.

Fuck SOPA!

Okay, I'm making another donation to Wolf-PAC. But I really think TYT is an invaluable thing in today's society. We have so very few people in the media who will actually be honest with us and tell us the truth about what is going on in politics today. Cenk cuts through the Orwellian double-speak and let's us know, in simple language, how they're screwing us. You can see why Congress would want to shut down the internet. It's the last bastion of free speech and a free press in America.

We should run over to France, get a couple guillotines, and execute all the senators and representatives that voted for it.

Did you know that the sponsor of the bill, Lamar Smith, actually has a Twitter account? He also has a Facebook account as well. Google these two.

I guess if your content was slightly compelling, it would be stolen, and you'd get to experience your God given talents being ripped off. The subtext of the Internet thus far is Internet=free stuff, times are changing my friend. Of course let's not forget the more common methods od enfi
