LOL. Funny what a difference 2 years makes....

[Napstrpsx]

Cenk was going a little over the top but I was the same way for a bit. I didn't have any real problems with Obama but I didn't get what all the fuss was about.

I thought he was inexperienced but he proved himself to millions of us. I'm proud to have him as my president now.

[andron333]

@Napstrpsx Obama is spineless and he sold out to corporations like all the presidents before him. Other than that he is a lot more reasonable than any of the republican clowns

[SeriousPsyche]

@Napstrpsx Just one question.,..... still proud?

[Skeptic87]

MIchael Shure is just a priest for the democrat party. Replace him with Misty would be better at least.

[Ceolfrin]

That's politics for ya: Michael Shure is usually very astute with his reasoning but when it comes to "his guy" reason dies. His argument devolved to the point where he could have thrown up just about anyone to run for prez because his only points for Obama were abstractions based on the verb "seem" a absolutely nothing more. Sad that Michael would come to eat his words, but that's politics for ya!

[taylorshiloy]

Cenk is a Dick. After watching a few of these old videos of TYT, I see why there's a lot of people that don't like Cenk. I honestly gotta say I didn't know Cenk could be such a Dick towards somebody in his own party that he really didn't know to much about.

[goldenshots]

WOW Cenk and Jill nailed it in this video on Obama...Especially the part where Jill said "Well, hes not a great leader, hes just a great politician" <--DEAD RIGHT

[synchronium24]

@BlindPacemaker lol, just what i was thinking. the thing is he actually did recommend specific policy changes later, but he refuses to (and in some cases genuinely can't) act on them.

[BlindPacemaker]

@27nupe94 Funny what a difference another 2 years makes...

[Ardias000]

Also Jill called it.

[Ardias000]

"Obama is too Green" well candidate Obama might of been but President Obama is only center-left when compared to Bush as a centrist.

Also I disliked Micheal before because I thought he was foolish and now I know for sure.
