1. "The Prayboy Mansion"

Classic

[Vinnie From Indy]

2. That is my new term for C Street

The Prayboy Mansion! Frickin' hilarious!

It also works as "Preyboy Mansion" due to the coercive nature of these extra-marital affairs.

7. Isn't Coburn reputed to be one of the most honest DC

politicians, or at least one of the most honest Republicans? I don't know whether to laugh or scream. Perhaps a bit of both will do some good. We are in soooo much trouble.

3. Man oh Manishevitz

Wonder how happy Tom Coburn's wife is. Hypocritcal Christian Republicans getting picked off one by one.

4. Our mentors

These anti-regulation "Family Values" Republiclowns are the same bunch that want to regulate our family values. Wonder if voters back home in their states know about their behavior.

[Plucketeer]

5. Yeah - it's one thing - what women can do with THEIR OWN BODIES...

..It's a totally different thing regarding what SOMEONE ELSE can do with a woman's body!!! :crazy:

Edit: for grammar.

6. This just could be the one we've been waiting for.

It has all the elements the media loves to cover. Each new revelation will lead to another. Each new person caught in the net will lead to two others. It's time to lay this whole creepy C Street "Family" business before the public. Go Cenk!

8. I wonder what "Businessman Jesus" thinks about all this

sinning? Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot that the "C Streeters" are licensed by Businessman Jesus to do anything they please with impunity as they are doing preparation for his forthcoming IPO.

[Roci]

9. "lost himself "?

the man didn't "lose himself."

His arrogance and hubris was such that he felt he could do no wrong, even in the glare of the public spotlight. Ask anyone who worked with or around him for any period of time, and you rapidly discover that his attitude was one of being untouchable, and never being wrong.

For all of his purported exposure to "Christian values" the man forgot one of the basic tenants of the faith itself: pride goes before a fall.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

10. Is Cenk on a show with a specific name?
