    Be a man and ask him about the racist newsletters. I want to hear him lie again.

    You've never heard him lie in your life, and that's why you hate him.

    Boy, that straw-grasper was just your *best* santa claus gift, wasn't it?

    "I want to hear him lie again."
    Bull.................
    shit,
    asshole.

    Ha ha, very funny. Got me to watch MSNBC. Congrats. No Welch, and I'm now dumber.

  • Whappan?| |

    Yeah, "Around 6:00 pm eastern", I watched 'till almost 6:30 until I couldn't take any more.

    Football "graph" has Obama on the "left" side of the football field, the Republicans on the "hard right". Obama moves to the right, the football (which represents the center on the 50 yard line to start) moves to the right along with the Repukes moving farther right. He complains that they're all moving closer to the hard right end zone, but Obama is on offense here, so he's actually gaining yardage, according to this graph, which is opposite of what MSNBC shouting head intended to convey. Fail.

    Fucking football, how does it work?

    Matt Welch: Anonymous Ron Paul Supporter

  • Fist of Etiquette| |

    Ha, we at MSNBC love anti-government protesters in Egypt, not so much those in the United States lately.

  • Fist of Etiquette| |

    Still leaning forward here. Over the trash can. That I'm puking into.

  • Fist of Etiquette| |

    They refuse to put this joker's name on screen.

  • LibertyMark| |

    It amazes me how any time it looks like RP is getting any traction, there's someone who trots out the news letter thing. Like it is coordinated or something.

    Is that all you got? Because it is nothing, and it won't stick, and it doesn't matter.

  • Fist of Etiquette| |

    Joker should explain why he thinks being called a Muslim is a slur.

  • Achtung Baby| |

    Wait, what the fuck?! Why is Cenk bringing up the "Birther" topic? Is this really a hot topic right now?

    For the record, I thought Obama was a secret/closeted atheist/agnostic, freethinker. Well, that's what Christopher Hitchens (whose opinion I actually respect) and many other atheists were saying in 2008.

  • | |

    Free thinker? Are you serious? That clown was a wholly-owned property of Wall Street before he ever set foot in the Senate chamber.

  • WTP| |

    Wow. Does MSNBC think this guy can carry a show?

  • Bottom of the Barrel| |

    Hi, Cenk!

  • Fist of Etiquette| |

    Matt not in the house. Hopefully he was spared the first 40 minutes of the show.

  • Matt Welch| |

    I consumed every drop.

  • Fist of Etiquette| |

    I keep waiting for this joker to start shouting at Welch.

  • Fist of Etiquette| |

    Roads!

  • Achtung Baby| |

    Dude, that retard Cenk totally took that Ron Paul clip out of its context.

  • Fist of Etiquette| |

    He took pretty much every clip he showed out of context.

  • Achtung Baby| |

    Isn't that what Breitbart was accused of...Oh, hell. Forget about it.

  • Fist of Etiquette| |

    Okay, Matt's gone. Where's the remote.

  • | |

    So, is this asshole Cenk Uygar aware that the "young turks" were a pack of genocidal maniacs?

    Maybe some young Armenians should explain to him why the term is so offensive.

  • Most People| |

    Most people don't take the expression quite that literally.

  • cynical| |

    He's probably a descendant of GK, so take that for what its worth on the whole "slaughter, pillage, rape, raze" front.

  • Warty| |

    All the Turks I know are delightful people. My boss' name is Cenk, and he is one of my favorite people alive. This Cenk on TV appears to be an asshole, however. Are we sure he's an actual Turk? He might be some sort of Greek.

    I actually watched a bit of MSNBC, earlier. I didn't see Welch, but I did see Katrina vanden Heuvel (who has either had a facelift, or been soaking her head in Mobil 1 gear oil); if I may be so bold as to paraphrase:

    "President Obama, I am disappoint."

  • Mr. FIFY| |

    I'm not sullying my TV with that channel.
