Cenk hosting today.  Glenn Beck has come out and pulled a 180 on his opinion of our involvement in Iraq.  He admitted that Liberals were right about the false invasion and that we need to get out immediately.  Harry Reid also spoke up about how he voted the wrong way on the Iraq War, due to being misled by the Republicans on the reasons to invade.  When it came to the Conservative conspiracy theories on the timing of the capture of the Benghazi suspect, the talking point is picking up steam with talkers, Fox News anchors, and politicians alike.  In response, Harry Reid called their pathetic desire to criticize Obama so great that they’ll disregard American successes.  Cenk notices the new, biting language from Harry Reid. One of the suspects involved in the Benghazi embassy is still on the loose.  It has been discovered that he was previously captured and held in Gitmo, until the Bush Administration released him in 2007 and sent him to Libya.  President Obama’s poll numbers are at their lowest point of 41% and MSNBC’s Chuck Todd thinks the message from the American people is that his presidency is over.  When Bill O’Reilly argued with Kirsten Powers over allowing immigrant children to stay in the country, she shut him down when she pointed out that he never complained about the costs of the Iraq War. Tesla owner Elon Musk has decided to make all of his patents public and explained that it is detrimental to the goal of ridding ourselves of fossil fuels if he keeps the secrets to himself.

  1. Wasn’t surprised for this praise of Glenn Beck because of Cenk’s usual short sighted vision lead him to miss the entire freaking elephant in the room.

    The entire Beck admission was nothing more than a purely racist diatribe against those ungrateful Arab slaves whom “we sacrificed 5000 brave Americans to bring “liberty” to them”. And if you disagree then think again, he said “it is in their DNA”.

    This isn’t the first time Beck showed his true colours (remember the Arab Spring) but for Cenk to miss that is rather sad.

  2. Can’t find the video version of hour 1. The download button has a bad link and the play video button brings me to this audio page. Please fix this.
