If you think Cenk does a good show, support him. GE isn't going to do it. Pratt & Wittney's not on board. You can forget about Clorox. You get what you pay for. Its some of the best money I spend in my monthly budget. Cenk is closest to me in his political views out of all the political talk shows I've heard, and he broadcasts to a large audience. If he weren't on the air, I wouldn't feel represented. If he has any influence on the weakling organization of bucklers we call the democratic party, that's all for the better.

The forum and your perception of its usefulness should be unrelated to your decision to become a member, since you don't have to pay to participate. I became a paying member years before I even looked at the forum. During the primary I decided I needed an outlet to vent and this was the perfect place. Despite the trolls, you'll find over time that some of the posters here are very thoughtful. The community has other benefits, for example it is much smaller than other venues like Kos, and consequently it is easy to make friends (and enemies!). Not being homogenous in political outlook has other advantages. But I like your suggestion to be able to block users on an individual basis. On the whole it doesn't seem that necessary, and I would use it very seldomly (Kozlo and Chinese Democracy are the two I would single out). Perhaps you should have the right to do that as a paying customer. Kozlo is a special case because he is clearly spamming the site. Ken and bobo do not fit in that category in my opinion. It seems simpler to just skip over the posts you don't wish to read, though.
