<b> Why Cenk Uygur left MSNBC after refusing to "tone it down"<br>
</b><br>
I was partial to Cenk not just because he is a Turk. He was also <br>
one of the sharpest critics of the DP on MSNBC despite being--in <br>
the final analysis--just another DP spokesperson.<br>
<br>
For the last week or so, Al Sharpton has been hosting his 6pm <br>
show. At first I thought Cenk was on vacation but it turns out <br>
that he was too critical of Obama and the other rightwing assholes <br>
in the DP. All he wanted was the DP to be more liberal. Fat chance <br>
of that.<br>
<br>
For those not familiar with American politics, Sharpton is an <br>
African-American one-time FBI informant and "radical" street <br>
demonstration organizer in NYC. He has "matured" into a total DP <br>
hack who can be called upon to spin Obama's latest rightwing <br>
offensive against workers and the Black community.<br>
<br>
Here's Cenk's take on what happened:<br>
