Cenk Uygur has a new baby - Prometheus Maximus Uygur
As announced on MSNBC Ratigan's show....
The new baby's name is Prometheus Maximus Uygur.
Not sure the spelling is correct, but it's close enough ;)

Congrats Cenk!!!

19. Maximus is
probably an assertion of how he makes his parents feel.
The greatest!

2. Huh?
What kind of a torture artist would name their baby Prometheus? Is this a true story?

12. That kid is doomed to a hideous childhood of daily wedgies.
"Prometheus Maximus"? I hope they call him Max, at least.

4. Now it makes sense why Smerconish was filling in all week & not Cenk....
I've been mad at MSNBC all week for having Smerconish filling in Mon-Thur for Ratigan instead of giving Cenk a few days like they did last week.
So, now that the news is out that Cenk's new arrival showed up about four or five days ago ... it makes a bit more sense now ;)

He might decide to re-create his namesake's deeds.
