17. Instead of asking what he's done for us, why doesn't the blowhard ask what he CAN do for us.

Sometimes I wonder if Cenk even has the smallest amount of understanding of how politics works. What, exactly, does he expect Obama to do in his second term with a divided congress? Oh, that's right, in Cenk's world, where the only successful people are the bloated assholes who love to hear themselves speak, all you have to do is talk pretty and push a pretty agenda and everyone will hop on board! Those reaction, racist Republicans? They're that way because of Obama! He should push more and they'd give in because, apparently, in this world, that's all it takes.

Cenk is about as politically astute as Sarah Palin sometimes.
