Summary: Congressman Alan Grayson (a previous guest on TYT) added Cenk's take on his having http://crooksandliars.com/karoli/alan-grayson-introduces-public-option-act|introduced a Public Option Act> (aka, the above video) to his 'Favorites' section on his YouTube channel. http://www.youtube.com/user/RepAlanGrayson#g/f|Click Here> to check out Rep. Grayson's favorite videos. Special thanks to DUer Turborama for noticing this.

PS---TYT Network has officially launched our second show -What The Flick?! - which is hosted by Ben Mankiewicz (Turner Classic Movies), Matt Atchity (Rotten Tomatoes) and Cenk Uygur ("The Young Turks"). Roger Ebert (http://blogs.suntimes.com/ebert/2009/11/post.html|who compared Mankiewicz to a 'drive by shooting victim' because of 'At The Movies'>) sent out a tweet linking to the announcement.

31. This post has some serious problems. Why are anti-Democratic ads running under this video????
Edited on Sun Mar-14-10 09:15 AM by fasttense
While watching Grayson, I get to read the following ads:

Defeat Democrats in 2010.

Show Democrat Senators the exit

Support the RNC.

Vote Republican contribute here (web link provided).


It comes across as if Grayson and TYT are supporting the RepubliCON party.

Someone just coming to DU would seriously misinterpret this video.

Ads like this should not be encouraged by DU. What's going on?

8. As pure and as simple and as beautiful and as sparkling as a raindrop on a perfect rose.
Edited on Thu Mar-11-10 11:29 PM by ooglymoogly
But then what kind of nefarious kabuki theater, what kind of answerless riddle, what kind of enigma can be made of something so pure and simple and guileless; Simplicity is not the kind of dangerous toy congress likes to play with. It is not the black piece puzzle to grandstand on, to ponder the great illusion on, only to pull the rug in the end, without leaving so much as a gloveprint on its demise. This script will not be picked up.

28. Jesus, Oogly, that sure was expressed nicely. Are you a writer? I
may have to go to a enemy's web page today because they have a mechanism set up where you can notify your reps that you do not want the current HCR package.

Please take the requisite precautions; A good ham radio, a couple cans of spam would be nice,sunglasses and some paste mustaches. A good May West drag outfit can get you out of a heap o trouble. You never know when you will have to hit the trenches, so take plenty of beans and a good cloaking device. PS; you might need some kind of fan...you know...the beans ...otherwise the cloaking device will be useless.

30. Take it from me, Oogly, if I take beans before I go spying, the
entire village will know who is the spy.

And that Sen. Dodd watches Rachel Maddow! Maybe our progressive heroes aren't just "preaching to the choir," after all... :woohoo:

15. Big, big KnR. Grayson cuts through the BS.
There it is, a solution presented to us in a clear, plain-spoken manner. Go Grayson! Where are the other "representatives" of the people? Stand up! Or are you too busy counting the dollar bills handed to you by your corporate masters?
