Here are my thoughts on this news:

If they want to round out a progressive evening, I really think TYT gives a unique perspective. I don't see anyone being bored by the third hour of MSNBC prime-time even if they watch the first two hours (of Olbermann and Maddow).

I should mention that Cenk has been a guest on Countdown before (possibly twice but I can only remember the time Keith invited him on because he loved of labeling Fox News as "opinion media", ).

Also, (where Cenk also hosted the likes of and ). At any rate, make sure you watch these clips of Cenk on CNN Headline News and THEN tell me he wouldn't be incredibly entertaining on TV:

1.

2.

PS---Cenk already gets awesome guests. Naomi Klein, Naomi Wolf, Ted Kennedy, David Sirota and too many others to name. On TV, the possibilities are endless!

1. In reaction to the freeze-frame shot of OxyRush in the YouTube window:
Freud said, 'sometimes a cigar is just a cigar'...yeah, and sometimes it's a big, brown dick!

Thanks & a tip o'the hat to George Carlin.

2. I'm always surprised at how blunt the GOPers are about this:
"Why would I want (universal health care) to succeed? I'm opposed to that!"

They admit that they don't want a successful universal health care program because it would disprove their arguments about big government being an automatic failure. Their interests are purely ideological; they can't tolerate a successful government program because that doesn't fit into their preconceived worldview. Nowhere does the good of the American people factor into the equation.

3. At The National Zoo
Dress up a room with fake mikes and sound boards, lock these too dinosaurs in it and let them pretend they are relevent and interview each other for eternity. They could put in a 2-way mirror so zoo goers could see "Neocons in Their Natural Habitat".

4. Everyone has a grievance
I'm a white anglo-saxon male and I have a grievance I want resolved! The fact that Bush did not win an election but still sat in the Oval Office for 8 years anyway. Just look at the disaster it was! Court appointed presidents don't work!

5. As a black man, I find Limbaugh's statements about race to be
Edited on Sun Jan-25-09 04:25 PM by ejbr
comical. It's not that he's black, blah de blah. At this point, he IS the president! If you want him to fail because he is black, then you want the entire country to fail! The stupidity of racists must now be obvious to even them! "I can't want him to fail because he is black because that would mean I want to suffer because of this stupid notion of race." BINGO!

9. Victims? Oh please...
Even those who weren't born into wealth should have a chance to success. Isn't that the American dream?

Hmmm.... why would the Limbaugh's of the world hope this fails?

11. Completely tangential but this is the third TYT video that has been yanked for
terms of service violations.

I sense a bunch of brain dead ditto heads warming You Tube with complaints to shut them down.

Regards

12. The TYT youtube account is suspended.
Hopefully it's back up soon (this happened before, a year or so ago).

14. Some type of copyright squabble.
It's happened before and it took a little time for them to get back up. Worst case scenario is they can't reactivate the account, which would be disastrous.

At this point I have reason to be optimistic, but you never know.
