Bill Maher, Ed Schultz & Michael Steele Have Shoutfest Debate On The Budget

video
» 158 comments

When Real Time with Bill Maher’s staff booked both Ed Schultz and Michael Steele to appear on the show tonight, everyone involved had to be salivating over the potential for the two to get into loud disagreements. And when the panel debated politicians’ relative honesty and proposed Medicare vouchers, the inevitable came to pass.

It started with a mention of the already-infamous Jon Kyl/Planned Parenthood controversy, which Maher called “American lying at its finest.” Faced with the unenviable task of rationalizing Kyl’s handiwork, Steele noted there are “hyperbolic statements on both sides,” specifically about Republicans’ supposed desire to watch old people “get sick and die.”

This, though, prompted a retort from Maher – if Republicans don’t want that, what to make of Rep. Paul Ryan’s (R-WI) proposed Medicare voucher. At this point, things really started getting loud. There was Schultz yelling at Steele for mentioning President Barack Obama in the same breath as Kyl. There was Steele begging Schultz to “bring it down a notch.”

And there was Steele, when asked about what would happen to seniors who run out of Medicare voucher money:

“We don’t know yet.”

That one got quite the audience reaction, and Schultz clearly relished the chance to make an incredulous face. There was even a hint of a fistfight at one point, but Maher wasn’t too keen on the idea. Oh, and Amy Walter, political director for ABC News, was there also. Unfortunately for her, during the segment you’ll see below, she mostly functioned as Steele-Schultz buffer. (Which, come to think of it, was probably a key role.) Watch – and listen – via HBO.

    Holier Than Thou: How dare you even consider an abortion!

    Sane person: Whos going to take care of it when its born?

    Holier Than Thou: Not my problem.

    Sane person: And when that child becomes old and ill, dont we have some sort of obligation to care for him or her?

    Holier Than Thou: Not my problem.

    @ Moses

    Great point! In America, children are often left alone on the street. Nope… no adoption of children’s services to be spoken about. They just don’t exist.

    But let me add one more to your “conversation”:

    Holier Than Thou: “If you can’t take care of a child, why did you have unprotected sex in the first place?”

    Sane Person: “What was I supposed to do… not have sex, or buy a condom? Just because it’s my choice to have consentual sex, why should the results of that decision be my responsibility?”

    Thanks to the magnificent work of Paul Ryan, in Nov 2012 American voters will get to cast the most important vote of their lives — do you want America to go down “The Path to Prosperity”, or do you want America to continue to careen out-of-control down the lunatic-left d-crat socialist TAX-AND-SPEND “Road to Hell” plan to turn America into a HIGH TAX, LOW GROWTH, bankrupt European style ENTITLEMENT STATE – i.e. another Greece ?

    The lunatic-left, which knows ONLY TWO THINGS (TAX and SPEND) will fight the correct solution to the nation’s crippling debt (i.e. CUT SPENDING), and will instead come forth with massive new TAX INCREASES so they can continue to SPEND, SPEND, SPEND, SPEND the nation into bankruptcy and into even more subservience to the d-crat socialists’ banker, the chinese communists.

    Just as BIG GOVERNMENT can’t SPEND a nation into prosperity, it’s equally true that BIG GOVERNMENT can’t TAX a nation into prosperity. The fundamental basis of lunatic-left d-crat socialism FAILS on both of it’s key tenets.

    November 2012 can’t come soon enough for Americans to further TAKE BACK OUR COUNTRY from the extremist left who are destroying it.

    I can’t imagine how many elderly people will die in the first year of this “new medicaid”… or how many adults will have to take in their elderly parents because they’ve finished their alotted 15,000.

    The Republicans will essentially let people die, becoming a real death panel! IT’s ****in scary! Imagine if you were 80 and watching this on TV and wondering… what the hell do I do now? I’ve lived this long only to be thrown away like trash because rich people need a TAX CUT?

    Instead of taking care of our elders we are cutting taxes for the rich and giving corporations tax breaks. Just ignore Democrats though because they’re just being “emotional”.

    DUMBASS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • BruinAlum77

    And, of course, not a single one of you trolls can comment on the CBO’s analysis that Ryan’s budget:

    1) Barely reduce deficits at all over the next ten years ($158 billion over 10 years)

    “Despite proposing $4.3 trillion in what would be the most severe and wrenching budget cuts in U.S. history — two-thirds of which would come from programs for people of low or moderate incomes — the plan barely reduces deficits at all over the next decade. That’s because his budget cuts are offset by $4.2 trillion in tax cuts that would go disproportionately to those at the top. In essence, at least for the next decade, this plan is far less a blueprint for addressing deficits and far more a proposal to redistribute large amounts of resources from those at the bottom to those at the top. http://www.cbpp.org/cms/index.cfm?fa=view&id=3458

    2) Will force seniors to pay an additional $6K per year out of their own pocket for health care. 68% of the total anticipated costs of health care will be the responsibility of seniors.

    3) Seniors using private health insurance will face increased health coverage costs by at least 11% (CBO analysis) compared to the large market leverage of Medicare in containing costs. However, given the incredible rise in health care insurance over the last ten years, the projections of health care costs in 2022 are highly suspect.

  • BruinAlum77

    “highly suspect” in that future costs will be far greater than they are currently estimated.

    Yeah why not provide condoms? It’s just smart governing, a huge boom in STD’s will probably cause tons of trouble for the economy. Those are the types of things you don’t think of, the outside of the box.

    You don’t think corporations provide us with anything? Really?

    I assume then you’ve managed to build your computer from parts you made yourself… and connect to the internet via your own system. Otherwise, isn’t that an example of what I’m talking about?

    @ Snow

    So the government provides condoms to help some people from having babies and getting STDs. Okay… sounds great. But you know what else is tough, not having enough food… so the government should provide that free of charge too, because it would really help everyone out, and prevent famine and obesity. And while we’re talking about it, why not provide homes too… everyone needs shelter. Okay, and we all need a release, so why not provide televisions, cable, computers and internet too? That will help people be entertained and happier!

    And since they’re providing all that, why should we have to work at all? We can quit our jobs, and the government will just give us stuff! We won’t produce anything, and we won’t have money… but the government will make it alright.

    Yes, I can see your plan has a good and logical conclusion which will help us all.

    The House Republicans proudly take a Medicare-killing canoe ride down the river …. oblivious of the 200-foot waterfall just around the bend.

    Poor Congressman Ryan is disconsolate. President Obama rained on his “Emperor’s New Clothes” parade. American people to Mr. Ryan — it isn’t about you. It’s about what’s in the best interest of the vast majority of Americans. The people — not the corporations that finance your re-election campaign.

    I continue to find it quite perplexing that so many conservative politicians who purport to have business/fiscal savvy insist that the national deficit is solely the result of excessive spending, and that huge tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy and gaping corporate tax loopholes are irrelevant to this issue.

    This would be akin to a CFO standing before the company’s investors at a stockholders meeting, attempting to convince the crowd that the reason why the company has not turned a net profit during the current fiscal year has nothing whatsoever to do with the fact that revenues are down 50%, and that the red ink is solely the result of too much overhead.

    The CFO would be pelted with moldy cabbages, so why aren’t the Republicans who make the same inane statements reeking of rotten vegetation?

    Why don’t you guys just admit it? Liberal policy and over promised free shit for every one for ever has reached a brick wall. The money to pay for it isn’t there. There aren’t enough rich people in the country to tax, even at 100% to put a small dent in the liabiity and promises paid. The government can only tax us to 100%, so what do we do then?

    How much clearer of a picture do you need? Are you willing to have no income, and subsist on the nothing but the various government agencies? Or is that how you live now??

    @ lab

    Because the Democrats counter plan only includes increasing taxes, which would negatively impact everyone’s wallet (even the non-rich)… while increasing program spending.

    This would be like (to continue your example) the CFO saying, “Yes our operating costs are very high, and yes we’re only able to presently pay the interest on the money we owe… but if we just borrowed some more, and charged more for our product (even though nobody’s buying it now because it’s too expensive), we could buy some new stuff.”

    And then the Democratic audience would stand and cheer, because the CFO is so young, and handsome, and speaks so well! And the company would continue crumble.

    The House Republicans proudly take a Medicare-killing canoe ride down the river …. oblivious of the 200-foot waterfall just around the bend. Poor Congressman Ryan is disconsolate. President Obama rained on his “Emperor’s New Clothes” parade. American people to Mr. Ryan — it isn’t about you. It’s about what’s in the best interest of the vast majority of Americans. The people — not the corporations that finance your re-election campaign. I continue to find it quite perplexing that so many conservative politicians who purport to have business/fiscal savvy insist that the national deficit is solely the result of excessive spending, and that huge tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy and gaping corporate tax loopholes are irrelevant to this issue. This would be akin to a CFO standing before the company’s investors at a stockholders meeting, attempting to convince the crowd that the reason why the company has not turned a net profit during the current fiscal year has nothing whatsoever to do with the fact that revenues are down 50%, and that the red ink is solely the result of too much overhead. The CFO would be pelted with moldy cabbages, so why aren’t the Republicans who make the same inane statements reeking of rotten vegetation?

    When the goal is to slow down the use of a product or activity, the tool is to tax it. To completely stop the use of a product or activity, the tool is to tax the living shit out of it.

    Democrats (subscribing to the theory of the magic unicorn) will never get this through their emotional minds.

    The lunatic-left d-crat socialists added massive amounts to our $14+ TRILLION DEBT (with more than $5 TRILLION coming from the Speaker crazy pelsoi regime). They want to add another $1.65 TRILLION to that with their current year plan for that much of a deficit. And then they insult the American people by agreeing to ONLY a few BILLION in cuts, while keeping taxpayer funding for their leftist propaganda organ, npr, keeping taxpayer funding for dingy-harry’s Cowboy Poetry, further destroying American jobs with the out-of-control epa and keeping taxpayer funding for their abortion factory, planned parenthood.

    The lunatic-left d-crat socialists are PATHETIC, in addition to being out-of-control, irresponsible and a threat to America.

    November 2012 can’t come soon enough for Americans to further TAKE BACK OUR COUNTRY from the extremist left who are destroying it.

  • greenriverkate

    Good grief, do any of you have any intelligence between ya? My dad died in 1995 and lived in fear for years that his social security would be gone! This lie has been done for years by republicans. Many of you are too young to know the history of social security/medicare. All I see are a bunch of selfish self centered spoiled brats whinning they refuse to help others. That IS NOT what is AMERICAN! We, Americans, have PAID for social security and medicare so stop playing the “hand out” lie. It is OURS, not the government. However, the government has used OUR funds to pad their debt and left us with IOU’S. The time has come to pay the piper and the repubs are running scared that all their bs is about to catch up with them and their fake “bookeeping”. Many many (now seniors) people had wonderful pension plans but Reagan allowed big business to just flat take that money and “invest” in bogus crap and all these hard working people LOST their nest eggs they worked for and thought was safe.
    The middle class is all but gone. However, we WILL pay our fair share of taxes as long as big business and corporations pay THEIR FAIR SHARE. If we cut defense by half, we will still be leader in the word way above the 2nd runner up! If we put a means test on social security and medicare, it would cut it a great deal. Nursing homes are over $2500 a month and they are horrible. I did take in my grandmother (as she also raised me), I tried to take care of my Dad in every way possible. A job? Not! I loved my family and they did all they could do for me as a child. Call it a moral duty. Our elderly have been left with little after all they went through (several recessions), job loss’, cuts in pay, trying to do best for each and every one of you KIDS.
    Some of you say we are emotionally “charged”! Perhaps we are just Christians that know what we are suppose to do with family, or we are obligated to do all we can. There was a small work force when ss was developed but we survived. In recent years we had thousands and thousands giving into ss and medicare and it kept the elderly safe. We are NOT broke. It is a flat lie by the republicans to just do away with it. I have heard it is broke for so many years (at least 40) and it is a broken record. Social Security and Medicare are NOT BROKE. If we had passed a good healthcare bill with single payer, medicare would have been sound as it would have roped in high profit costs. Tell me, just WHEN has the republican party done ANYTHING for the middle class and poor. It is Greed and ya all have bought into that lie and caught the greed bug. I get social security but still have insurance through my husband so don’t use medicare. I also had to go out and get a job but all I could find was a part time job. My bills continue to go up higher and higher month after month but not my income. Two years ago, I could at least pay my bills but not anymore. This government froze jobs but not consumer costs and big business has figured out ways to ding you for every nickle and dime they can….like banks and charge companies. They operate illegally but no one is there to help us. The republicans can bring down gas by putting controls back on wallstreet. Just put back the rules before Reagan!!!! They can be stopped but congressmen/women are getting their cuts off these thefts. Yes, I blame BOTH parties but mostly the party of NO.
    Now that we have cut education, none of you will be smart enough to learn how to research canidates and issues, just what the repubs want, Most of the under educated belong to the teaparty. Trump leads in that party and he has no idea how many serve in the House of Representatives so ya know he doesn’t know their job. And they want “HIM’, as a president. A one issue idiots all about a lousy birth cert. Did anyone know the Supreme Court Justice that swore in Obama saw it and accepted it? I for one, don’t have my original. They didn’t have all this crap the teabagger are screaming about in many states. Shame on all of you. Get educated before you judge the elderly. You all are living off OUR hard work and we made the path (am not too sure if I am bitching or not but the Greed didn’t come from us seniors)

    The facts are somewhat different than PP will have you believe, almost 50% of their income is derived from abortions. Each time they hand out a condom that is counted as one (1) “service” so if they give out 97 condoms and perform 3 abortions, voila, only 3% of their “services” are abortions.

    If you’re all that good stuff, why the hell are you on an internet message board instead of MMA-UFC making millions? –Cobra

    Cobra, UFC fighters have a different mentality than I do, they are insane. I don’t have any desire to fight just to fight. I just don’t like bullies. I like to workout like an MMA fighter without the brutality of the acutal fight. I was just pointing out that I would destroy Ed Schultz with no problem at all. Which isn’t saying to much since he is almost 60 now. I’M an accountant after all, how tough could I possibly be? No UFC for me, Dos Santos scares the hell out of me. Think Lesnar may have a problem in June

    I was ready to jump all over you for saying “you hate bullies” while bragging about how you’d like to beat up a 57 year old man like Ed Schultz, but at least you acknowledged what you actually sounded like.

    As far as “bullies” go, Ed Schultz is a teddy bear next to the what Fox News and Hate Radio rolls out, so where’s your “hit list” on those guys?

    Challenge: Why don’t all of the conservatives who love to criticize how women look put THEIR OWN pictures in their avatars. Let’s see how all of these “handsome” and “beautiful” right wingers measure up.

    Yeah, because American’s just LOVE their insurance companies, who gouge them, deny coverage for pre-existing conditions, and cap them if the treatment is deemed “too expensive” or “unnecessary.”

    Tell me by Name, Lusty…who’s your favorite Health Insurance CEO?

    How about Silly Willy McGuire of United Health Group, who is the third highest paid CEO in America at over $124 Million.

    http://www.forbes.com/static/pvp2005/LIRRI3M.html

    What policies were United Health Group running BEFORE the “Obammycare” you deride?

    ” Health-insurance customers won’t risk losing their coverage when they become sick under an industrywide ban beginning in May on the practice known as “rescissions.”

    WellPoint Inc. and UnitedHealth Group Inc., the biggest U.S. health insurer by sales, said earlier this week they would no longer cancel customer policies without evidence of fraud or intentional misrepresentation.

    Companies will end the practice beginning in May, Karen Ignagni, chief executive officer of America’s Health Insurance Plans, the industry’s lobbying group, said yesterday in a letter. The health law signed by President Obama in March would have required insurers to stop all rescissions in September. ”
    http://www.quicknofaxpaydayloans.net/news/health_insurers_end_rescission_policy_dropping_sick_customers.html

    Damn that Obama for signing legislation like that, huh Lusty? People who pay their insurance premiums in-time and in-full should have NO expectation of coverage when they get sick, right Lusty? Silly Willie needs every dime of profit for his stock options and dividends, so how DARE policy holders make a claim, huh Lusty?

    This is the America you want, huh right winger?

    And I’m sure you would get your ass kicked big time. Shultz played football in college. What did you do?

    Lol. I love how you liberal idiots think that just cause he played football in college that automatically means he can kick everyones ass. Well I played football Divison I-AA McNeese State University , started at Will Linebacker for 2 years and you know what?? theres alot of people that can kick the living shit out of me. But back to ol Special Ed, I could definetly mop his ass up. And also heres a hint, since you’ve probably never got in a fist fight in ur lifetime, the guys that run there mouth all the time and try to sound all tough are usually the ones who arent about shit when its time to get busy. One thing I can also pretty much guarantee you is that with his attitude and bully persona, Special Ed has definetly beat up on a woman at least once, if not multiple times.

    People like you are just pathetic cowards. Go back and play with your legos. You’re just mad because he is right and your own party is leading you down a dead end.

    Libs are stupid idiots, we all agree. They whine and bemoan ‘millionaires and billionaires’ and how they need to be made to pay more taxes. But you never hear idiot Libs similarly bemoan the people and corporations who don’t pay any taxes to begin with. Why? Because Libs know that THESE layabouts are their PALS. These tax-dodgers are their FRIENDS. And the same stupid LIBS who wag fingers about higher taxes on the ‘rich’ on one hand, then go out and try to minimize their OWN tax obligation. Hello John Kerry and his yacht. Yea…Mr. ‘Common Man’ Lib John Kerry…with a yacht.

    Libs are inbreds.

    I also heard from a very reliable source that when Ed gets home most nights he goes down into his cellar and beats himself silly. Which is a good thing.I can’t imagine how tight he would be wound without it.

    Oh and back to you Obie one Knobi. My party?? so im assuming that u think im a republican? What just cause I disagree with Mr. Ed and said liberal idiots im a fucking right wing nut. Let me make this clear you Rachel Maddow loving dyke, I am neither right wing or left wing. My ideal politician is Jesse Ventura. Oh I’d love to see ur hero Special Ed debate Jesse, “the body” would eat his college football ass for lunch. Join the Dark Side faggot.

    And its actually your party thats leading me down a dead end. I work as a tool pusher on oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico. And it was Your f*****g President that put me out of work for about 8 months. And guess what, I didnt qualify to receive any assistance from the government, nor did i qualify for unemployment benefits. So all these little programs that you liberal idiots think Obama is giving us down here on the gulf coast, arent helping the people that actually need it. But its all good now, im back to work finally. But ol Barack knows for damn sure he is not welcome on the Texas- Louisiana gulf coast.

    saving money for usa
    volunteering for usa. saving medicare costs.

    Our young soldiers volunteer to die on battle. We older sicker debilitated nearly dead people can offer to die before millions are spent on non essential and non effective tests etc and procedures that make doctors and hospitals rich but do not improve our lives. These end of life non essential procedures cost the country a lot of money and do not get us to heaven happier.
    If we are unable to get weller and will die anyway don’t allow doctors and hospitals and labs to get rich doing procedures and tests and surgeries-like chopping out the stomach of someone that has no chance to live- already half dead but still have insurance to pay for this. .
    This is criminal waste of money and is practiced in hospitals to make them rich and not improve our last days on earth.

    VOLUNTEER TO GET STERILIZED
    Someone should put the word out that the planet cannot have any more increase in population. One can enjoy sex even with tubes tied.
    Families that cannot feed or educate their families should stop having children voluntarily to help the planet survive.
    If one has a history of perversions, criminality, psychiatric illness .AIDS or some other inherited disease that will cost the government millions should one not be encouraged and educated towards some kind of patriotic act. If one is penniless and on the street or homeless and one does not have a means to provide for a child can we not educate towards being patriotic and not bring more children to burden society.

    If ones wealth was created by clever and crooked deals and clever accountants so you paid no tax – should one not help usa and pay ones due and much more.
