This is hilarious. MSNBC’s Cenk Uygur had a Sgt Schultz moment on his Monday show.
When a representative of the Southern Poverty Law Center – a group that’s never been accused of being conservative – displayed a chart that listed black separatists as one of the leading hate groups in America, the MSNBC host chose to ignore it. Just plain acted as if he didn’t see what was right there in front of him. It didn’t fit the leftist template, so as far as Uygur was concerned, it didn’t exist. Said it didn’t make sense, so he skipped right over it.
Rather than subject yourself to more MSNBC than necessary, skip ahead to the 1:30 mark.
Cenk Uygur, one of liberal radio and TV’s self-designated Young Turks, interviewed corpulent corporation buster Michael Moore. What could go wrong?

Moore: You know, I tell you, these Democrats are disgusting. Wimps and wusses and weasels. You know, get some spine. This is why I have to admire the Republicans. They at least stand for something. They at least have the courage of their convictions. They get elected to office, they come into town, and they go “Get outta my way, there’s a new sheriff in town. This is the way we’re doing things. Get outta here.” And then they do it. You know. I mean what they do is crazy. But dammit, they are good at it. We should take a page out of their book.
It was almost as if Moore realized he had bitten the hand that feeds him, so he quickly took a shot at conservative Glenn Beck.
Cenk: I couldn’t agree more with that. So to finish that thought, if you were, for example, Van Jones, how would you have responded to Glenn Beck?
Moore: Fuck off! That’s what I would have said. But again, you mentioned Glenn Beck, and of course, he’s the guy that’s called for my removal from the planet Earth.
Whew! That’s more like it, Michael. We were worried about you there for a second.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0RCJdjUfO4Add a dollop of dementia. A pinch of paranoia. A smidgeon of socialism. Mix it all together into an ideological olio and half-bake at 450 degrees. Voila! You have the next MSNBC primetime host.
Ever since news got out that MSNBC wants to create a new show for its 7:00 p.m. time slot, fans of libtalk radio have been flooding the lefty cable network with unsolicited endorsements of various libtalk hosts
Two fan-based Facebook groups have been founded to promote Cenk Uygur of “The Young Turks” internet radio show and Sam Seder of Air America.
We say either of these guys is perfect for MSNBC. No one’s ever heard of them. No one’s ever listened to them. And no one will ever watch them.
