Cenk Uygur (host of The Young Turks) filling in for Chris Jansing on MSNBC presents a message to president Obama. Private insurance companies still control our health care and banks are still too big to to fail. If the GOP and right wing media are going to bash and attack you no matter what you do, why not push for bigger progressive change?

3. Amen brother Uygur
Bring the word. I agree with this guy so often it's unsettling. At least someone's in a position to express my opinion. Keep it up Cenk.

10. I sure hope SOMEONE in the White House watches it, and looks at DU!!!
They seem to be deaf to the message from liberals recently.

13. We know they watch Faux so one would think they'd be keeping an eye on MSNBC too
Rachel et al get called in for lunch with Obama occasionally. I sure hope Cenk gets that invite one day in the not too distant future...

24. The answer is painfully clear - Obama is not a progressive
he's slightly to the left of republican - which is slightly to the left of totally fucking awful. :(

25. Go Cenk. He's absolutely right.
All these half measures are only giving the GOP what they want. They don't want the economy to sufficiently rebound while Obama is president. That's the bottom line. So if Americans want to continue to be miserable, give the GOP more power.

31. This is far too dismissive of all the positive accomplishments and too soft on the RePUKES. Train
fire where it most belongs.

35. Because Cenk, He's Not A Talk Show Host or a Blogger, He's The President of the U.S.
and leader of the Democratic party. He made a choice, get the most positives things done that you can or bang your shoe on the table and scream at your opponents 24/7.

He chose option 1. Now, option 2 would be great for a TV show host or a blogger, but not so much for a president.
