Cenk plays the full clip of Van Jones telling the truth about why Republicans behave the way they do. Cenk agrees with Jones but predicts that it won't be long before it's announced that he has to "spend some time with his family".

Personally I don't care what BecKKK does with this, I was more interested in Cenk's take and am really looking forward to see how Jon Stewart reacts.

10. Cenk was unfortunately right, Van Jones just resigned.

Pathetic. Imagine a Republican in this situation resigning? It would NEVER happen.

4. As the old folks here in the south used to say...

Tell the truth and shame the Devil. Make it plain young man!

5. They do need him. He's absolutely right.

For instance, the Repubs were against the Sotomayor nomination even before she was named as a candidate. Their intention is to oppose anything Obama does, regardless of what it is. How long before he acknowledges that fact and works independently of them?

6. The only problem

is redundancy. Asshole and Republican are interchangeable. Can someone name a Republican who isn't an asshole? This is not to say all assholes are Republicans, but all Republicans are assholes.
Being on life's down slope, I refuse to speak with them. Time is too short to waste with liars. Once I hear a talking point the conversation ends.

7. As the crying wrestling fan says

"Thank you Van Jones for saying what needed to be said"

9. Van Jones RULES!!!

I've been hearing a lot of lies about this guy being a communist and this and that, using foul language, and the whole 9/11 thing. Who cares if he's a commie? I mean really. C'mon people, what's so wrong with communism anyway? Look at Cuba and its healthcare system. And as far as these baseless allegations of him being a so-called "9/11 truther," this is meaningless mud slinging used to confuse the real issue here: fear of powerful black men. I will even go so far as to say that if this guy signs on I'm willing to sign on as well. Those racist Johnny Reb bastard republicans are just trying to discredit the New World Order. How long are we supposed to sit back and let them take away the hopes and dreams that the forefathers of this great country stood for? It's a damned shame and we need to get up, get out, and get heard. If it was so important, then why was freedom of speech an amendment that by definition was an add on not included in the original? Because it is not a fundamental right. Beyond that, I'm hoping Van Jones does not get impeached and that he sticks around and makes a difference. Those republicans, they ignant.
