Even if you aren't a TYT fan, I'm sure this clown's commentary on healthcare, corporations and how Obama is responsible for huge deficits (not Bush, and not because Bush made it necessary) will drive you crazy over the sheer stupidity. The scary thing is that this right wing nobody already has 9,100+ subscribers to his YouTube channel "HowTheWorldWorks'.

I suggest you rate this video 1 star, unless you agree with him. If you still aren't sure, get a load of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kky3Jz7vEW8

Someone also said he tried to "debunk" evolution, but I'm not going out of my way to look for that video which I'm sure is hilarious, in a sad way.

1. Is the whole thing narrated by the high-school kid heard at the beginning?
I only lasted about 40 seconds - and even that was a waste of my time. It's hard to imagine being harangued by a whiny child for any longer than that.

2. I don't know how old he is, but the fact that he's using the phrase "socialized medicine"
instantly discredits him.

Among other things.

3. This Violates The Geneva Conventions....
Listening to this dickweed may have caused permanent damage to my gag reflex. A prima fascia example of right wing self-fucking logic. I commented and rated *.

But the narrator is a real dick.

7. If nothing else, it's relevant as a classic example of someone who has completely fallen for the
corporate tripe masquerading as sensible policy that forms the core of Republican politics. His defense of trickle down economics is textbook.

8. We NEVER head disingenuous right wingers concerned about the cost of the Iraq War.
Only now; they are worried about the cost of things. Nary a word in the bush years.

9. Exactly. Now the RW starts crying about the budget deficit.
They're hoping that people wil think Obama is responsible for the huge deficit. After all, Faux News never mentioned a budget deficit when Bush was in office. Mus' be that Obama feller's fault.

10. If you watch the youtube link
you'll notice that the guy rambles on for more than 4 minutes and never once blinks his eyes. This is because the presentation appears to be a series of short, spliced segments. Either the commentator is very high, or he considers not blinking to be an important part of his delivery. Is this a common practice? If it is I never noticed it before.

11. I thought there was going to be some TYT here, not some snot-nosed liar
Truth in advertising, folks - don't use the TYT logo and not have Cenk on!

12. Michael Shure filled in for Cenk Tuesday while Cenk was on the East Coast.
He's technically a 'Young Turk'. Plus I didn't start off with TYT followed by the video title.

:)

13. Does this kid actually have anything?
:shrug:

Maybe he might try something of substance next time he decides to make a video...

16. I've run into this dipshit on YT
He's your typical Randriod suburban teen-ager that has never worked a day in his life or paid a bill. Some of the people I subscribe to have ripped him a new asshole numerous times. There is actually one guy that is even worse by the name of MRCropper that is a full blown Objectivist. Good times

17. I discriminate
Edited on Thu Jul-30-09 10:52 PM by Turborama
against anyone who thinks this twerp makes sense.

BTW you can give it a one star rating twice. Once on the video itself linked in the OP and another on the version of it in his channel's profile: http://www.youtube.com/user/HowTheWorldWorks

22. Apparently Cenk is going to debate this clown tonight on healthcare!
I can't wait.

24. I listened to it.
It was really good. I was taken aback at how calm and respectful they both generally were (Cenk moreso). No personal attacks or insults. The conservative was slightly bitchy at a couple points, but generally kept himself in check.

The only thing I disliked was that Cenk said he thought the pre-Reagan tax rates were way too high, and I completely disagree with him. At any rate, I'm not going to post it until Sunday or Monday. If it's posted tonight, 10 people will see it and Saturdays have low traffic. Sunday is "ok" but Monday has a lot of traffic as you know. I'm worried someone will beat me to it and not appropriately re-title the video to Cenk Debates Conservative On Healthcare!

The current video title sucks and no one will bother watching it.

25. I've just checked my subscription feed and it was there
Edited on Sat Aug-01-09 12:19 AM by Turborama
DL'ing it now to check it out.

I'd have thought Sunday afternoons are a good time to post relatively long ones like this...?

27. The Competitive Enterprise Institute is funded by Pfizer Inc.
Edited on Sat Aug-01-09 01:23 AM by Turborama
So it's no surprise at all that they want to eliminate FDA drug approvals.

They are also funded by the tobacco/petroleum industry and car makers. It wouldn't surprise anyone to hear their thoughts on smoking and global warming, either.

I like the way Cenk started with that question, pretty good ownage throughout. It seems that no matter how wrong he was proved to be, he always had to come up with something to try and prove his point and he had nothing. All he had was the ability to lie/twist the truth to try and prove it. Cenk was killing him with kindness but the only emotions these fools feel is greed, anger and fear. There's no way he'd feel guilty for lying on his corporate masters' behalf - after all, that's what he gets paid to do - and admit that he was wrong.

19. His link
The usual pablum about democrats somehow being pro-censorship or supporting gulags (where has this fucker been the last 8 years). Selective use of polls regarding whether Dem's wishing Bush to fail, ignoring the obvious conclusion of the poll that maybe we wanted bush to not get reelected, or maybe we wanted an elaboration of already existant bad policy to fail. His comparison of this to Limbaugh's comments are sort of a false analogy but since he doesn't seem to understand that CO2 actually traps heat in the atmosphere I suppose thinking is an alien land to this shmuck.

21. He is obviously a child with no perspective
He probably just started paying attention to politics a couple months ago. It will take that kid years to learn just how completely and utterly wrong he is.

20. It's crazy how he doesn't blink.
I figured out that the faster someone rambles some shit off at you the more likely it is that he's BSing you. Think used car ads or evangelical preachers. This guy is definitely full of crap.
