2. ya gotta love this guy!

somebody tell me why he does not have his own show on msnbc

[Window]

6. I've been advocating that forever. I think Cenk is great. Thanks Tom

for bringing him to my attention.

:kick:

8. He'd be a better fit on HBO/Showtime but sure, why not.

3. If they do give that f***wad the money and a mob of former employees don't show up with pitchforks..

then we are a failure as a society.

[ejbr]

4. I kinda can't really blame the guy for asking...

Bush sends our country to shit, has abysmal approval ratings, breaks laws, treaties and wipes the constitution with his ass and what does OUR Congress do? They continually give him what he asks. We are all witnesses to this, just as this CEO is. Sure, he should ask since Congress seems to be too fucking stupid to appropriately respond to the most egregious behavior, why should $10 million to this loser mean anything to them?

[20score]

5. I want his job!

In the interim, he should should be banished to a cleaning crew in Albany.

9. " You should have' Epic Fail' tattooed on your forehead"

:D

You tell 'em, Cenk!

This is beyond ridiculous.
The nerve of that guy asking for $10 million
in a bonus.

No soup for you, no bonus either.
Move along now.

I wish Cenk had his own show, too.

Cenk,:yourock:!

Thanks, IHNB. :)

And Detroit is the problem. heh

11. I bet he sees absolutely nothing wrong with it either

Like he deserves it, lol.

[Connonym]

12. That makes me sick

and they talk about people on welfare having entitlement issues? WTF? They're screwing the consumer who has to pay extra for items to pay CEO bonuses, they're screwing the stock holders who get less return to pay for the CEO bonus and now they want to screw the taxpayers too? No fucking way. This kind of capitalism is why proles start thinking about revolution and socialism.

13. Ahhhhhhh. . .what a catharsis! Thank you, Sir!

Hearing Cenk is the next best thing to punching this CEO out cold.

Let me just add, this asshole John Thain. . .



won't get his 2008 $10 million bonus after all because the public is scrutinizing his every move now that we taxpayers essentially own his ass. . .

It's not that he was so accustomed to easy money. . .he was underestimating our easier scrutiny of him now in a post-bailout world. . .

I'm lovin' this change in that respect!
