Cenk is incredibly annoying. One has to wonder why hes got a show.

[Seraphim]

Schiff was also right - those tax rates had huge deductions...and NO ONE paid the 70-90% rates...lol.

[robertwerden]

Cenk is brainwashed and has a god complex when it comes to the economy. Peter made one huge mistake, and that was trying to talk over a guy who thrives on having the loudest voice.

[Seraphim]

Schiff is that guy! hahaha

It was like watching two gorillas pound their chests.

[vita3]

I found them both very annyoning in this clip.

[LibertyEagle]

He is completely misconstruing what Schiff said. Schiff is against corporatism too, in a major way. But, the only way to stop it is to reduce the power that the federal government has. If the government does not have the power, then they cannot offer it for sale to special interests.

[Seraphim]

It's amazing how this simple and flawless logic does not take hold with so many people.

Exactly. I'm not sure why people don't understand this.

[brandon]

lol he really does need to learn to shut up some of the time.

[specsaregood]

oh cenk, so close to getting it, then gets reeled back in

[specsaregood]

Exactly. I'm not sure why people don't understand this.

because it requires admitting they were wrong

[Tod]

I found them both very annyoning in this clip.

I agree. Schiff for being overly pushy and impolite and Cenk for being wrong and not listening to what Schiff was saying.

[skilt]

Seriously, He is factually correct, but instead of trying to have a dialogue with Cenk (who by his exposure of the media in regards to RP, we all agree is at least very reasonable) he won't take a breath and listen to another person, and then offer his opposing points. He consistenly turns people off. It doesn't matter if you are 100 percent right if people aren't listening because you have a big f-ing (does that pass the censors) mouth.


sk

[acptulsa]

LULZ

Cenk says shut up about things you're wrong about and, being right the whole time, Schiff doesn't shut up. And then Cenk says that Schiff's wrong about the fact that it wouldn't do the bankers any good to buy the politicians if we didn't allow the politicians to exercise that power. How can that be denied? If you don't want someone to zap your ass with a cattle prod, take away the cattle prod.

Insanity. Cenk says, 'I want to blame the bankers, which you can't do anything about, and the politicians, which you won't do anything about, and here you are saying don't trust the politicians to do the right thing, take away their power to do the wrong thing, and that means you want to put off dealing with the problem so you can steal some more.' Huh? That's the only way to nip the problem in the bud, bud. That way you don't have to lead the politicians into temptation, then fire them when it's too late. You just don't let them be tempted, and have them arrested for stealing if they do it anyway because they aren't authorized to touch that money.

[Chester Copperpot]

Yeah they both agree but neither could seem to convey that to each other

[acptulsa]

Yeah they both agree but neither could seem to convey that to each other

They don't agree. Cenk says politicians should have the power to give our money to bankers, and then should be fired for doing it, and thinks that's the surest way to stop it. Schiff says they shouldn't have the power at all in the first place. That way, they can't give it away before we fire them at the next election.

Or, to put it another way, Schiff's obviously right.

[schiffheadbaby]

Cenk is an idiot trying to promote his show and brainwash the masses?

Was Cenk warning about the financial crisis? Does he have a clue about monetary policy?

No, he is an obese liberal trying to get viewers who probably have 0 net worth (or are about to have 0 net worth after listening to his crap)

[trey4sports]

schiff and Doyle are the future of talk radio.

[NYgs23]

I haven't seen the clip yet, but let's face, Schiff never is willing to shut up. Of course, everything he's not willing to shut up about is right.

[schiffheadbaby]

I'm always amazed schiff tolerates such nonsense. He has a higher patience threshold than I do.

Cenk has no clue and the people in this forum who support him bewilder me.

He constantly preaches government intervention in the economy, looser monetary policy, less economic freedom etc and some ppl here actually think he is a decent American?

[gerryb]

I hope Cenk has Adam Kokesh on the show -- Adam is the best debater we have for the Occupy/Liberal crowd

[schiffheadbaby]

Schiff is a bossdog,

problem is most progressives will never learn. They suck off the tit of the government and they won't bite the hand that feeds them.

Cenk openly proposes debasing the currency to fund these crazy programs. How is that beneficial for the middle class? It isn't but it helps keep his obese stomach well-fed

[moderate libertarian]

Both libs and anti war folks have been messing with his mic now and then. Here is another off the record interview when mic was turned on:

Peter Schiff shocks supporters with support for strike on Iran
http://politicallore.com/blog/?p=642


Google owners seem to have deleted all those vids of him but there are some still online.

[roho76]

Cenk....Shut up. It is socialism.

Corporatism = Corporate Socialism

He says Peter wants to bitch about the government and not the bankers and then proceeds to say that the bankers buy the government. The bankers wouldn't have anybody to lobby if they government didn't have the power.


Why can't they see this vicious circle. They only concentrate on the business side and want the government to regulate more.

This is so frustrating.

[kuckfeynes]

LOL what a buffoon.

Though continually talking over the host, even an interruptive O'Reilly-esqe host, is probably not the best idea if you're trying to get on more shows...

[Inny Binny]

Schiff has got to be one of the most annoying people to watch. He reminds me of Wayne Allyn Root, which isn't exactly a compliment. I have no idea if he's right all the time or not, all I know is that I can't stand listening to him, and I can't get far through this video.

Cenk doesn't hang up on Paul, so I'm pretty damn sure it's got everything to do with Schiff's fuckwittery and not his politics.

[ca4paul]

Cenk = illegal alien?

Schiff is a Boss.

[cordscords]

Scroll down to paragraph 9 to see where Schiff is coming from. Nominally Cenk is correct, but as Schiff notes it doesn't tell the whole story.

[devil21]

It's amazing how this simple and flawless logic does not take hold with so many people.

Cenk is demagoguing the issue, not trying to discuss it intellectually. Cenk strikes me as the type that really just regurgitates sound bites he (literally himself) finds on the net, without any real understanding of what the causes are behind the sound bite. This is why he was canned by MSNBC so quickly. He's not a strong enough personality to own interviews (like O'Donnell) and he's not smart/informed enough to have any chance of owning his interviews that way (Maddow). So what was he? He's pretty much just acting like a politician. Peter is Peter and Peter doesn't back down and pretty much owned the segment. This interview is why Cenk's show didn't last long.

[emazur]

Cenk was spewing bullshit and refused to back down. Peter refused to let him off the hook. He probably went too far, but so did Cenk. His "independent" analysis will be absolute bullshit

[Diurdi]

To be fair, they're both pretty "vocal".

I just happen to share Peter's views more than Cenks.

[low preference guy]

I'm almost always in complete agreement with Schiff but very often must turn the radio off. Last time was Tuesday when he interviewed a guy and started off talking about how great his book was.

[speciallyblend]

Cenk was spewing bullshit and refused to back down. Peter refused to let him off the hook. He probably went too far, but so did Cenk. His "independent" analysis will be absolute bullshit It is cenk's show but if i had one word to describe peter schiff. Arrogant would be one word in his list.

[Revolution9]

Schiff=loudmouth makes my eyes glaze over. Same talking points over and over and over.
Cenk=bloviating blowhard makes my eyes roll. Same talking points over and over again.

This clip..They deserved each other. Now Schiff should invite him on his show and cut the mic.

Rev9.

[Raudsarw]

Cenk and Schiff have similar personalities. They both always want to be in control of the discussion and won't back down, ever. I guess there just isn't any room for both of them in the same place.

that sums it up plus the post below yours above mine

[osan]

Cenk is incredibly annoying. One has to wonder why hes got a show.

Is this a serious question? I'd think the answer was too obvious. Or is it meant as sarcastic humor?

[Lothario]

Schiff is a bossdog,

problem is most progressives will never learn.

No, problem is, Schiff needs to learn how to debate like an adult. His vast and important knowledge is obscured by his hyped up, over emotional, and often childish delivery. If he would ever take the time to add some rational, logical debate skills to his arsenal, he would be much more successful in loading Austrian Economics in other people's brains.

i kinda miss the old Peter Schiff (2009 and before). Now, he seems arrogant, repeats the same ol' talking points over and over and cuts people off.

While I tend to agree, I think he learned debating in a bad place...mainstream network news. In that environment, it really is the case that the loudest and brashest party gets the most time to share their talking points, which they have to insert quickly without stopping.

LOL. He go so owned. Cenk is a dink.

[schiffheadbaby]

Good, I'm glad jmdrake agrees with me.

Those of you who support that fat central planner Cenk really make me wonder, his solution is always more government control.

Cenk is a loser who has flamed RP on his show.

Peter Schiff has exposed millions of Americans to real economics.

Well said. This Cenk guy isn't worth a shit. Who cares if they got him saying some nice things about Ron Paul part of the time? He'll turn on him when he's ordered to. His little schtick about getting thrown off MSNBC because he wouldn't play ball with the programmers was all spin. They threw him off the channel because he sucks as an anchor. He doesn't have the chops, and he tried that little BS story as a way to curry favor for his internet show.

[Corto_Maltese]

TO ALL THE PEOPLE THAT THOUGHT PETER WAS RUDE

I also dont like when he talks over people and i dont think he is a good interviewer on his show, BUT he pointed out today in his radio show when discussing this interview that he had told the producers before it started that he almost couldnt hear anything through his earpiece, so he simply didnt hear the new question at the end and just kept talking. He didnt have a tv that he could see cenks face, so he just kept talking. Sounded at least like he told the truth. You should listen to that segment from todays show, its early on.

[JasonC]

It's amazing how this simple and flawless logic does not take hold with so many people.

Simplicity is often the key to brilliance...

[Thrashertm]

Schiff explained today on his radio show that he couldn't hear Cenk while he (Schiff) was speaking; there was an audio problem.

[Athan]

This has got to be the funniest interview ever. (Ok, I skipped to the boot after seein' Schiff completely run away with the interview from the start.)
Both of them agree with it, yet get somehow it still falls apart with minor details!

[Zap!]

Liberals are poison. Libertarians can keep telling themselves that we can work with them or convert them, but us paleo-cons never wanted anything to do with them in the first place. I hate them all.

[emazur]

Converting liberals should be on the back burner but it's not futile. Cindy Sheehan and Matt Gonzalez (Nader's VP) endorsed Republican John Dennis, who ran on the Ron Paul platform, over Nancy Pelosi in 2010. Though I think I recall a couple months ago Sheehan bitching about Ron Paul. But Nader has been very supportive of Paul this campaign and I wouldn't be surprised if he winds up endorsing him.

[JuicyG]

Cenk is clearly a liberal and he defends welfare state. However one should be careful not to alienate one of the few members of the media who spoke favorably of Ron Paul several times.

http://ronpaulflix.com/2011/12/cenk-uygur-ron-paul-hate-from-establishment-republicans/

I think it`s wiser to bring people together not tear them apart. Common talking points should be emphasized, like the corporate influence in Washington and how that impacts and hijacks the interest of the people and misrepresents them. The tax issue should be left alone when talking to liberals.

Ron Paul`s alliance with Ralph Nader and Dennis Kucinich:
