2. K&R! Made a point of catching Cenk this afternoon...

He sure looked at home on the TV screen, confident, well spoken, did a stellar job! :applause: Looking forward to seeing more of him on MSNBC... :toast:

4. How can we come to any

other conclusion?

And just look at the fucking harm these people have done to our nation. I guess they will live in safe gated communities with nice surroundings and huge foreign bank accounts in their retirement years. The race to the bottom doesn't include the one with the starting gun.

12. So true.

5. Well done, Cenk!!!

More Cenk on MSNBC!

But still love you keepin' it real on Young Turks!

6. KR The pigs will have something to worry about

when Cenk gets his own show on msnbsc.

7. The tie really throws me...

Not that it's ugly, just that it's Cenk...

8. he's much better than some other msnbc guest hosts.

chris hayes and lawrence o'donnell come to mind. love them both but cenk performs circles around them. he's even got the early rachel beat.

9. I find it hard to believe that people would misuse their positions in government.

For their own profits! No way.

10. Great to see something like this on TV

Actually, I didn't get to watch it on TV, unfortunately, since I'm in another country right now. If anyone knows where I can see the Dylan Ratigan episodes where Cenk guest hosts online without it being blocked outside the U.S., I'd be grateful for the tip.

11. wasn't there some talk of a bill preventing staffers from doing certain types of work for x years

after they served? regardless, they need something that says they can't go into banking or regulation within 4 years after they leave, or within 6 after they leave if they're senior officials. there's other jobs they could get. I readily admit I'm no expert, but his comments make the case for something to be done. They seem to get PAID (wink wink) for making sure things are done the way they want them - and I don't want all the inner circle getting filthy rich from the disgusting industries that have torn apart this country's economy.

13. Our system is very ill

regardless of which party occupies the WH.
