Cenk Uygur (host of The Young Turks) on his weekly Daily Rant segment on The Dylan Ratigan show on MSNBC explains the absurdity of popular tea party candidates who are against the separation of church and state. Watch Cenk with Ratigan every Wednesday around 4:45pm ET/1:45pm PT.

1. Damn I wish they would give Cenk his own show.

[theaocp]

3. They will.

Keeping Tweety around for a prime-timeish rerun slot can't hold up to marketing during an hour with Cenk. Dude carries a baby Kraken around in a briefcase, for emergency use.

5. ...but not during nap hour:

13. I agree, Cenk will have the 7 p.m. EST slot within six months

If not sooner. Rerunning Chris Matthews is idiotic from a marketing standpoint and Cenk will draw viewers.

2. That Was A Very Good Rant and..

A very good idea for a tv show for Cenk. Keep up the good work Cenk!

4. Great rant Cenk. Exactly right.

that exchange at the end was a little strange. Dylan asking Cenk if he has considered his own TV show. But, he fills in for Dylan occasionally. Was Dylan preparing him and his audience for an offer that is coming to Cenk? Or was it just some "tee-hee" banter?

8. By the sound of it

it sounds like not only do they want Cenk, but they want the name The Young Turks.

6. We should stop using the term, "Separation from Church and State"

It's Separation from all Religions and the State.

You know conservatives are easily confused. When they hear, "church" they think Christianity.

No dummies.

It includes all religions.

If they understood that they wouldn't be having a fit over Sharia Law.

Since they want Christianity taught in public schools it would only be a matter of time before Catholicism and Islam would have to be taught.

If that happened Conservatives would burn down the schools. Just like their cousins the Taliban.

So much for knowing the Constitution.

Fuc*&g Idiots.

10. they think it preserves our 'christian nation' from other relgions.

otherwise they wouldn't be trying to legislate their beliefs.

7. Separation of Church and State has been good for Religion

There is a church on every other street corner and religious programs all over the radio and TV. Religion is everywhere! It's stunning that those who hate government in their lives so much want government to force religion on them???? If the Gov. gets involved with Religion people will reject it by the millions.

9. Dylan Ratigan has a man crush on Cenk.

11. Separation of Church and State = a More Perfect Union.

Church and State get along much better when they have nothing to do with one another.

If these dopes want a church to run the state, I nominate the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

It's the best church out there.

12. Hyper-religious people annoy the *hell* out of me!

I'm not sure if it's because they believe such obviously false fairy tales, or because they reject any form of intelligence, including math and science, or because the policies they advocate are lethal for America, or because they unquestioningly worship worthless paranoid demagogues like Glenn Beck, or because they are just such damned unpleasant people, but I find them EXTREMELY annoying.

Whatever it is, I wish they would just GO AWAY. Forever. Leave America alone!

14. K&R, Plus One and give Cenk his own show!

That would be cool.

15. KNR! Love Cenk's rants!!
