1. That teapartier is just as ignorant as his befuddled followers.

His lack of intelligence is nothing less than disgusting.

[Dawson Leery]

2. Judson Phillips has already exposed the tea parties for what they are.

Judson desires a world where only property owners have a vote. Judson desires to move back to the original constitution which permitted slavery and denied women the right to vote. Jason Loughner too desires to move back to those "simpler" times. :eyes:

3. 'allow me to make a statement & then go check later to see if it has any truth...' -Tea Party

typical, typical, typical... unintelligent responses by someone with no knowledge of the facts

[WorseBeforeBetter]

4. When Tweety calms down and lets the other person speak...

and show their ignorance, etc., he's quite effective. And that fucking dumbass Phillips just admitted that guns shouldn't be anywhere near situations in which tempers could flare -- that's A LOT of situations.

[JBoy]

5. Tweety was seething. Came out swinging and had him on the ropes the whole round.

[MannyGoldstein]

6. That's how you deal with those types

Attack.

No "both sides do it", no appeasement.

[LandR]

7. pounding

Fantastic exchange on behalf of Matthews - that's what I'm talkin about!

"I'll give you three years and you won't come up with one!" haha nicely done - this kind of humiliation of idiocy is what we need.

[MartinTurtle]

9. At 2:30 judson said he had never seen a gun at a political rally...

Then before the 5 minute mark he said he was at a political rally in AZ where he saw guns and he felt "completely safe". I'm sure. It was his army! Liar.

[Turborama]

15. Remember this guy?

[Crowman1979]

37. And this guy!

[CLANG]

18. Good Catch!

[Enthusiast]

28. Plus one...nt

[indy legend]

19. Very true, but this asshole is literally to stupid to humiliate.

It's hard to humiliate a group of people who are too damned ignorant to know they have been humiliated. I am surrounded by these rw shit stains here in indiana and they are absolutely too fucking stupid to know when you are insulting or humiliating them. They prove every day that you can't win an argument with a moron.

[LandR]

20. Yeah but this has to stop

I understand what your saying, especially since I'm in Georgia, but if you can't win an argument with reason, you have to do it with making them feel utterly incompetent. Though, the nature of these idiots makes it somewhat dangerous to provoke them, but we cannot continue to turn a blind eye and let these imbeciles suppress our thoughts. To make a difference, we have to be the difference.

[Enthusiast]

29. Similar observation here. nt

[JJW]

8. Stupid is as stupid does

How would you ever pick out an assassin with a gun, if everyone is carrying a gun?

When the Tea Baggin Party held their convention the prohibited members from carrying their guns into the building. So typical of the right-wing to be only concerned for themselves and not others.

[TxVietVet]

10. Chris smashed that teabaggin' kkklucker pretty good.

I noticed the teabagger had smirk and never ever realized he was made to look like the fucking idiot he is. I can't believe Matthews gave that dilwad air time. He showed the political community how ignorant teabaggin' kkkluckers are.

[whatacountry09]

11. Let's talk for a minute about the REAL issue here...

IRREGARDLESS IS NOT A WORD! IT'S REGARDLESS AND I HATE when people use that word incorrectly. Also, the phrase "in regards"! That too is INCORRECT. It should be in "regard"... there is no 's' on that and people should recognize this.

And about that 'other' topic mentioned in this video. Fox - their entire staff (except Shep) and their followers are the responsible parties here. There are better ways to get your point across - even if your spinning the truth - promoting violence ISN'T ONE OF THEM. But... they won't recognize it and therefore... it will not end.

[Raschel]

16. And "your" is YOU'RE!

[ProfessorPlum]

33. heh heh

[Rhiannon12866]

39. +1

:D

[pacalo]

12. K&R. Thanks for posting this.

[FarLeftFist]

13. Tweety acts surprised that teabaggers DON'T know American history...

I'm surprised when I find one that does even a little.

[Enthusiast]

26. Me too.

The Tea Party understanding of American history is a caricature. We know this by the absurd signs they carry and by their words.

[HR_Pufnstuf]

14. I remember an era on DU when Tweety was despised.

He's still a big establishment political hack at (bailout tax payer funded) GE helping to perpetuate the idea that WE have a choice in our candidates on either side of the aisle. THEY control our candidates by who they give free publicity on TV.

Did you see any stump speeches or interviews by Green or Libertarian parties last election cycle? No.

Did they place extra negative emphasis on the Kucinich UFO comment, or the Dean scream. Yes.

Media is full of shit (still).

[Turborama]

21. Does that mean you don't agree with what he said in this video? n/t

[Enthusiast]

27. Tweety is correct some times.

He did a great job with the Tea Bagger. At other times -not so much.

[Frisbee]

17. I call Bullshit!!!

At 2:33 this lying piece of shit (I only call him that because what I'd really like to call him might get me in trouble on DU) says' he hasn't seen any guns at political rallies, but at 4:58 he talks about political rallies he attended in Arizona which were open carry and that didn't bother him. Which is it you lying son of a bitch, and I can't believe Matthews didn't call him on that. Typical tea-party asshole, say's whatever comes into his mind, truth has NOTHING to do with anything he says' only what he thinks will advance his position.

[BklynThirtyThree]

22. saw this live

I was stunned when Tweety didn't let him off the hook. Called him out for saying "this only happens in 3rd world countries" and then failing to come up with A SINGLE EXAMPLE. great stuff. If this is the 'leader' of the Tea Party, they're in much worse shape than I thought.

[Kablooie]

23. Interesting how Tea Baggers work so hard to believe fairy tales.

He's so shocked that this kind of thing can happen in America!

It seems that they are so afraid of life that they have to convince themselves that fantasy stories are true to get through the day.
Reality terrifies them so they retreat back behind stories of the unbridled goodness and safety of the American dream.
That would explain why they are so stalwart in their views in the face of total contradiction.
If they let go of their fantasies they would fall apart.
It also would explain fanatical RW Christians.
Same mind set.
They have to have a protector and believe blindly in some supernatural good because the nitty gritty of reality is too damned scary.

I would pity them if they didn't try to force their insanities on the whole country.

[rbrnmw]

35. that fake tone he had He was lying out his ass

there is no way in hell you could be that mans age and NOT know about the violence of the 1960's MLK and RFK were shot in a few short months of each other. If you ever attended HS you know that.

[kaffy4x4]

24. After years of this language

the media finally has something to point to as a direct result that will stick and stick good. We've all talked about how violence was a big part of the tea party. It's very foundation began with violent disruptions of town hall meetings! They got a way with this outrageous behavior, then took it up a notch by exciting with lies, the ignorant and fearful. Then it was bumped up another notch by the likes of Limbaugh, Hannity, Beck and Palin. More lies and scary stories that were meant to really get them going. At a fervor pitch, the politicians jumped on board. They took it to the halls of Congress, adding the lies and distortion to their arguments on the floor. Validating and justifying more violence. All was ok with that crowd until one of their own was shot in the head. No big deal when a nut takes a gun and shoots up a "liberal" church. Barely a mention on the news. No big deal when a guy follows through in his desire to take out "liberals" at the Tides Foundation. But now it's gone too far, one of their own has shot a Congressmen in the head. Now we can call the Tea Party crowd for what they are...violent ignorant people.

[Enthusiast]

30. The Tides Foundation story and

the church shooting is still barely mentioned by the media. One would think these and the killing of Dr. Tiller would be used as examples in the media. It is crystal clear who controls the media in this country. And THAT is the problem.

[AsahinaKimi]

25. Tweety nailed him to the wall

The entire Republican party and Tea baggers love their guns, and want to intimidate the left. They are saying "Here's my GUN, I can use it on any of you, just give me an excuse!"

[SemperEadem]

31. pop quiz question? You're the one who made the assertion!! You should know enough about it

to back it up, since you're basing your nonsense on something you dont' know anything about.

Just like spalin--all you know is shit because all you talk is shit.

[florida08]

32. nice clip Turborama

Faced with facts and held to them the way Chris did will always unravel a tea partier. This should be happening everyday to expose their hypocrisy. Hammer them about their hostile rhetoric toward their government. It's time to marginalize these hate groups.

[rbrnmw]

34. Tweety I love you that was priceless

[Crowman1979]

36. The Teabaggers have collective amnesia.

They are also the first ones to get in your face if you don't remember the constitution or MLK's "I Have A Dream" speech verbatim.
