Speaking of the Iraq war, be sure to check out this awesome clip where Cenk crushes two Iraq War Myths: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=385&topic_id=116919&mesg_id=116919

PS---You can always watch TYT Live from 3-5 pm ET, with a Rolling Post Game 5-7 pm daily Monday-Friday at www.theyoungturks.com (both shows include a live chat). The RPG often contains political talk but also many non-political topics to lighten things up (and yes, that audio may not necessarily be work-safe).

Also, if you can't watch live, the 3-5pm portion of the show (politics) streams the rest of the day, all day right after the Post Game Show ends leading up to the initial show at 3pm.

1. This will not make me start watching the view, but I have to give them credit!

They really did ask him tougher questions than anyone in the mainstream media has. And Cenk is right about Wolf too! :)

2. Replace Wolf Blitzer with Joy Behar!

3. They're just lucky

That they didn't start joking around about how he is going thin on top. I hear he is a smidge sensitive about that.

4. I'm glad you brought that up

Obviously you're referring to the story Cliff Schecter wrote about in his new book 'The Real McCain'. He actually joined TYT earlier this week for a segment to discuss that incident as well as some other McCain related items: http://youngturks.wmod.llnwd.net/a591/o1/4-8-08Schecter.wmv

In fact, McCain also joined TYT yesterday for a special edition of Republican Sexcapades that focused on John McCain: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x3144057

5. Hell, Wolf Blitzer gives Glen Beck a platform.

Wolf is completely controlled. The corporate media would never allow Joy to ask the questions we want.

6. So Mc Cain says, Bush badly botched the begining of the war.

If Jot really wanted to nail Mc Cains ass. She would have hammered on that. So the problem wasn't that we invaded Iraq. The problem is that we allowed a moron to lead the invasion of Iraq.

[LiberalLovinLug]

7. Could've been even tougher on him

But that's not The View's job. That is for Wolf Blitzer and others like him. I mean I wish Joy had pulled up all the quotes from ex-generals who have said how catastrophic it was to go into Iraq. And all the examples of people who had doubts about the 'intelligence' like Joe Wilson etc..
But its not Joys job. sigh

I think Wolf is so 'blitzed' out on Valium and anti-depressants to be able to do such a mind-numbingly banal job for his corporate masters. He talks and acts like a zombie, and seems to have absolutely no research to confront his guests with. All we hear is his monotone, "that's interesting"

8. I think

I'm developing a secret crush on, Cenk. Must. Resist. Now.

[ihavenobias]

9. Why resist?

He's awesome.

[CherylK]

10. Bump!

[Cha]

11. The comedians are saving

our collective ass! Props to Joy Behar, Sinbad, Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Chris Rock..who else?

john mccain is such a liar..Obama will beat in a debate on Iraq..Obama has the moral authority.

mccain's still parroting the line that we should have gone in.

[ihavenobias]

13. You make a good case n/t

[Cha]

14. Cenk is one of the best..

thanks for giving me the heads up 'cause I'm not much of a political video watcher per se.

[krkaufman]

16. Don't count your chickens. The comedians are part of the reason we got Bush...

... because they all bought into the bullshit story lines about Gore, and didn't bother doing any of their own research into Bush to figure out what a total moron he was. It was all to easy and convenient to jump on the Gore-bashing bandwagon, rather than creating any fresh material.

[OhioChick]

12. K&R

:kick:

[krkaufman]

15. Ol' McSame ain't gonna be stepping back into The View any time soon.

Babs et al will be personae non grata w/ his campaign.

p.s. Way to pump TYT, nobias. (from plooger)
