Note: Cenk is filling in for Dylan Ratigan on MSNBC Monday Aug 30th - Friday Sept 3rd (4-5pm Eastern, 1-2pm Pacific).

Summary: Cenk Uygur (host of The Young Turks) filling in for Ed Schultz on MSNBC explains why he doesn't accept (newly out of the closet) former RNC chair Ken Mehlman's apology for helping an anti-gay party and campaign.

13. Neither do I.
I wonder if he really, genuinely, honestly feels that he fooled anybody...

7. "Apology not accepted." I love it
Seriously, people are saying aww, how hard it must have been for him? So we're expected to admire people for gathering the courage and strength to compromise their values?

Oh, well I guess that's what we love about Obama.

9. All I could think of
was how many people he has hurt to advance his own career. I have no problem with anyone keeping their private lives private, but he affected the lives of so many people with his dishonesty. God only knows how many people in his own personal life were betrayed by him. I wonder what they think of his apology.

11. Ya right!!
If he SUPPOSEDLY disagreed and could not get them to change their minds QUIT!! Pretty simple but when you're probably getting a big pay check I guess prostitutes aren't the only one to get paid to screw people. LOL.

14. Ken should move to Uganda.
He sided with the haters so he should go live in their crowing achievement.

15. OMG - this is the first time I've DISAGREED with Cenk, here's why -
Mellman has the goods on the rest of the closeted Republicans!

We need to get him to bring these people out and really blow up the party!!!

Hey Cenk - how bout if you forgive him if he gives up the goods on say, Cheney, Rove, and the rest of them?

16. He talks then we forgive him. I will not forgive him prior to
his giving the goods. He's still giving big money to right wingers.

20. I cannot accept his apology. Did anyone here catch the Stephanie
Miller Show when RW Jerry called about his sister's suicide? I ended up crying all over my keyboard. Not acceptable, not acceptable, not acceptable.

In a couple of month's time, we'll hear about the big advance for mehlman's book on his personal journey.

:puke:

21. An unadulterated hypocrite asking us to forgive his
Edited on Sat Aug-28-10 10:48 AM by ooglymoogly
treacherous ass; Now so full of calumny it would take a knockoff of the aids aids quilt to cover the crap.... This is a perfect picture of a Republican looking into the mirror to see what he wants to see; While the sane, the people, the non pugs; See a Wildean monster metastasizing; The real portrait that lay hidden in the attic now so exposed in all its raw evil glory; The real Ken Mehlman.

This man is a crass and callous monster whose hypocrisy overrides the forgiveness he petulantly asks as if these are minor transgressions that did not murder and ruin innocent lives; And that they were not really his fault.

"Recently came to the conclusion"? Bullshit; His story is a lie from beginning to end; Puganese; The innate pug trait to duck and cover for every ignorant excuse uttered in the quest of extortion.

The evil of the devil asking for forgiveness, thinking he is fooling anyone.

It is an insult to the intelligence of the gay world;

He more aptly should be called a Twisted Republican; Though that hardly singles Mehlman from the flock. It is no wonder these hypocrites have to hallucinate a life they do not live; Cleaving to a hateful greedy, evil, hypocrite in the sky; The malignant hallucination; The mirror of a rotten soul they so blasphemously call Jesus or God; To cover their evil in hallucinations of the good and the glorious; So desperately needed to live with themselves and the evil they do.
