1. I was unimpressed by "The Young Turks" until I saw that |
|
Go Cenk!
He's like me, only with a microphone and listeners! :D

How can you never have seen Cenk rant before?! :)
Granted, he's not always quite THAT pissed, but still, his rants are great. I actually like him better when he's more controlled than he is in the main clip above.
Here are a couple of classic rants (ear-muff the kids):

watching your links, but really, this guy just speaks what I think. So good for him. I don't need to hear it again. But to more directly answer your question, there's so much content, it's hard to see the good stuff ;)

4. You've seen the Wesley Clark Jr rant before? |
|
I loved that one, especially because poor RJ Eskow just sits there for most of it.

You didn't notice I included the rant links in my first comment? :) But instead of ranting, I'll just post the Wes rant again: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=385x186225

8. Unfortunately there is a 3 day rule for videos here. In order to appear on the front page... |
|
the video must have been posted on youtube within the last 72 hours.
On the plus side it I guess it keeps people from posting a zillion videos (which would be annoying because nothing would stay on the front page long enough to get any traction/views/recs). OCD posters have tried to argue that not having a video on the homepage doens't make a difference, but that's complete BS. It makes a HUGE difference. O
At any rate, 3 days is pretty strict. Personally it'd be nice to see that limit extended by at least a day or two, but maybe that's just me.

thanks for that. i didn't know that. so even if a video as old as this gets tons and tons of K&Rs it won't go anywhere? if that's so, maybe that part of the 3 day rule should be changed up a little. i understand the purpose of the rule but... it's a bit strict.

12. That's right. It could get 100 recs and it still wouldn't show up on the homepage. n/t |

10. That was fucking awesome! |
|
And with all due respect to his co-host, 43% of Americans should NEVER have thought Saddam was linked to 9/11. But since the news media carried water for Bush, they did. The media should not have done a "responsible" job of debunking what they previously reported, they should have gone hog, fucking, wild considering the ramifications of this erroneous belief.

13. K&R I don't care if it is an old video. |
|
It definitely needs to be said over and over again.
I was almost that wild around my friends and family for eight years. Loved it!
I didn't have a computer back then or I would have sent this to everyone I know.

14. Cenk is absolutely right. The MSM actively *pushed* the false Saddam-9/11 |
|
Edited on Fri Jan-09-09 10:10 AM by tblue37
connection and buried the bits and pieces of truth in the deepest pages of the papers--if in fact the truth was even reported at all, which of course it wasn't until long after the war had been deliberately facilitated by those same media.

15. Isn't it obvious why 43% still believed Saddam was in on 9/11? |
|
Those are REPUBLICANS. They HAVE to keep believing Saddam was responsible for 9/11, or else they'd have to admit they were WRONG! I'm bot giving the media a pass here, but I think putting it in the headlines wouldn't have changed most of those peoples' minds. They'd just dismiss it as 'liberal media bias'. Remember, Tinkerbelle's going to die if we don't all believe hard enough! As late as 2007 I was still getting into arguments with people who swore there were WMD's somewhere in Iraq!
