ROCK ON CENK!!! (none / 0)
Sometimes when I imagine Cenk... I think of him in a tuxedo shirt, because it says "I'm formal, but I like to party too."

Well done man! I love how "fair and balanced" CNN is. Wait... what? You are going after McCain's service record? You can't do that? But Wesley Clark was just sitting in an air-conditioned room during Vietnam with NATO. WTF?!!!!!!! And when you try to clarify it, I love how the anchor starts cutting you off. Uh oh, they are trying to spout off about how Wesley Clark was a War Hero too. He was only shot 4 times and still fought on to save his troops... nothing much ya know. Stuff anyone can do. And then was struggling to stay alive after he got to a hospital. BUT MCCAIN IS SO GREAT! WES CLARK IS THE DEVIL!!!! Good and Evil man. Good and evil, no gray ever. F'ing morons.

But Kudos to you Cenk! As Public Enemy said back in the day, "Fight the Power! We gotta fight the powers that be!" Best line in the whole segment... "I think you guys are crazy." BEST LINE EVER!!! And it was YOU GUYS. Both of them man! Cenk was the Lone Ranger come to fight the bad guys and bring truth to the land. And even the anchor was against Cenk. Insanity man. Insanity.

When did it become terrible to speak up against the President? I hear all these Libertarians and Conservatives who always say, "You can't trust the government. Do you want the government telling you what you can and can't do? No! You gotta get the Government out of daily life." However when we distrust Bush then it is, "It is unpatriotic to talk badly and bring unrest before the president!!!! SHUT UP AND FALL IN LINE!!!!" *Does the old cartoon head spin* WTF? Where did that come from?

Keep it up Cenk!

Whaaaaat the... Air America anouncement? (none / 0)

Did the host say Cenk was the new morning host on Air America? I haven't heard that yet, or am I just a day or two behind on my podcasts.

great job! (none / 0)
Cenk, you did really well under what was incredible pressure and not much chance to speak.  I could tell they cut you off just as you began to defend Wes Clark's record of service, bummer.  I liked that you laughed and called them crazy under the guns.  That made me feel like you were the strongest person in the room.  You look good on TV and I hope to see you there again.

Elbow............From the SKYYYYYYY!

 

Nice work Cenk, not letting him bait you into the "Who is more experienced" arguement. Stick to the key issues, bob and weave!

 

I love how you got the last word in "We were right, you were wrong"

 

Booyah! Wow..... times sure have changed, have they not?

My personal summation : (none / 0)

"a noble spirit embiggins the smallest man"

Cenk,

 You sir are the noble spirit. 

 P.S. I thought you were gonna lose the race.
