A Truth Journal: Daily Show Comic John Oliver Interviews Sen. Gillibrand: Fight To Fix Military Sexual Abuse And More




A Truth Journal: Daily Show Comic John Oliver Interviews Sen. Gillibrand: Fight To Fix Military Sexual Abuse And More: 4 videos.  From Denny:  Did you know that the Daily Show's comic, John Oliver, is an American citizen?  Did you know his wife is career military?

You can easily guess who it was who suggested he interview Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand in her efforts to curb the Pentagon's so-called leadership values, refusing to give up even an ounce of command authority no matter how wide-sweeping and perverted is their corruption.  But then, that's the point, isn't it, to be able to have the authority necessary to cover-up that corruption and law-breaking.

In short, the Pentagon wants to do what they want, when they want and how they want without any real oversight or any consequences.  It's obvious those in Congress who should be exercising oversight are too busy with their fund-raising and insider trading to take the time to hold the Pentagon's feet to the fire and get those sexual assault and rape cases properly prosecuted.

That attitude has resulted in a rape culture that is at epidemic proportions in the U.S. military.  While it's clear it's acceptable to the highest levels of the military command, like Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Dempsey, it isn't acceptable or palatable to the rest of the country or women in general.

A Truth Journal: NSA Leak, Comic John Oliver Tells Us Sad Truth: Goldman Sachs Aluminum Pricing Scandal

English: John Oliver in 2007
Comic John Oliver of The Daily Show

A Truth Journal: NSA Leak, Comic John Oliver Tells Us Sad Truth: Goldman Sachs Aluminum Pricing Scandal: From Denny:  Yet another example of President Obama protecting Wall Street corruption.  If ever you doubted just how corrupt our government and financial systems truly are, then take a look at these funny video clips.

The Daily Show's temporary host, comic John Oliver, lays it all out in plain language that even an eight-year-old can understand it.  Oliver brings a precocious eight-year-old little girl on to the show to prove his point. But, apparently, the financial sector reporters are unable to see the obvious corruption and insider trading issues - or are too cowardly to admit their knowledge.

And President Obama and Congress are equally clueless, enabling daily the financial sector's glaring corruption.  Oh, yeah, President Obama's legacy will be just as glaring for all the corruption he did nothing to stop...

A Truth Journal: Funny Daily Show on NSA Leaker: Idiot Media Chase Wheres Waldo Snowden



A Truth Journal: Funny Daily Show on NSA Leaker: Idiot Media Chase Wheres Waldo Snowden: From Denny:  Comic John Oliver tells it like it is when he labels the U.S. government as turned into the "sad ex-boyfriend" when Hong Kong refused to return Obama reps' pleading calls about giving back NSA leaker Snowden.  America kept calling back like the ex-lover that leaves far too many annoying texts and phone messages, making a fool of themselves.

Next up? The unprofessional "journalists" in the media are the ones who have insisted upon promoting Snowden as the center of the NSA leak story like it's an episode of Where's Waldo? They should be focused upon how the NSA broke trust with Americans and the rest of the world.

Instead, the tabloid media chase Edward Snowden to Russia and board a plane Snowden was rumored to be on to travel to Cuba for refuge from the American government.  Of course, Snowden was a no-show on that flight.  What did the media do?  They took a 12-hour flight to nowhere without Snowden because they were locked inside the plane.  They took hundreds of photos of the empty airline seat and actually wrote reports like it was a news story and then tweeted the idiot photos.

Dennys Funny Quotes: Libya: Comic Talks Marketing Guru, Rebranding Libya

John Oliver, photo taken on October 11, 2009, ...Image via WikipediaDennys Funny Quotes: Libya: Comic Talks Marketing Guru, Rebranding Libya: From Denny: This Daily Show interview, conducted by comic John Oliver with former Libyan Ambassador Ali Suleiman Aujali, is a study in what we call in Louisiana "Crawfishing." Get a laugh and watch this 40 year loyal servant of Gaddafi walk backwards his life, his actions, and resell himself as a servant of Libya.

John Oliver: "Gaddafi is one of the most eccentric despots in the Middle East. This leather-faced, Ukrainian nurse-loving lunatic has been in power since 1969."

Then Oliver compares both their bosses as dictators: "We both work for charismatic dictatorial figures who don't like to leave their rooms unless it's to go on to TV. They are both addicted to the adulation of crowds. They both look really weird up close. They both like Jewish jokes - though probably for different reasons..."

Ouch Outrageous Obnoxious and Odd: Jon Stewart: John Oliver Pokes Fun At The Royal Wedding of Kate and William

Ouch Outrageous Obnoxious and Odd: Jon Stewart: John Oliver Pokes Fun At The Royal Wedding of Kate and William: "From Denny: Jon Stewart and John Oliver lampoon all the insane media coverage and excessive scrutiny over the royal wedding. No insufferable detail is left unturned. It turns out it's terribly important for the world to learn about how jelly molds are made for royal weddings. Listen to British comic John Oliver mock the craziness."
