In the aftermath of the Van Jones mess the questions about the White House vetting procedure still remained.
Are there a other people working at the White House with credentials that are much worse than Van Jones? If Jones was properly vetted, who overruled the vetting team and sponsored him to become part of the government? If the POTUS and his staff knew about Jones and his off the chart opinions, what does that say about the White House? Beyond his provocative statements, Jones is self described communist. Even though the cold war is long gone, that is still disturbing to most Americans. How could all of this slip through?
We finally have the answer, it didn't slip through--Jones was barely vetted at all. The president's use of Czars to get around Senate confirmation and congressional questioning of what the Czars are doing in office has come back and bitten the POTUS on his presidential posterior.

Good post, thanks. We knew Van Jones believed the Truthers. It is good to see his disavowal refuted by the source.
Keep up the pressure!
I would disagree with that statement. Jones was properly vetted and found to be perfectly qualified to spearhead The Kenyan's plan to "fundamentally transform America" with "green jobs", "green" being the new code word for communism disguised as environmentalism.
Obama and others knew about Rev Wrong, too....It’s all those promises that politicians make....
If we capture the House in 2010, is it possible to “unbudget” the czars going forward?
This needs to be repeated and repeated often!!!
What did Obama Know and When did he know It?
Fox News correspondent James Rosen spoke with 911Truth.org spokesman Mike Berger on Friday and Berger said Jones knew what the petition said and agreed with its contents.
"He did agree with that statement and he did sign on to it," Berger said in a phone interview with Rosen. Berger said the group's "original board members individually confirmed all signatories that had signed on to the statement." Asked by what means the confirmation was obtained, Berger said: "They did it through email or on the phone."
An administration official said Jones never hid his controversial associations or remarks from the White House.
A cult of personality arises when a country’s leader uses mass media to create
an idealized and heroic public image, often through unquestioning flattery and
praise.’
Now we know why the media didn’t question anything about Obama....And why Obama isn’t questioning anything about his czar’s.
Yeah, and World War II ended 64 years ago--and who would say the same thing about a card-carying fascist????
I figure Obama just wanted as many radical leftists as he could get in the White House.
Hussein and his handlers are so breathtakingly arrogant that it probably never occurred to them that one of their choices would be questioned. And should it happen, media silence would quickly result in a loss of public interest.
Cue “Watermelon Man” - green on the outside and red in the middle
Vetted? Obama isn’t vetting anyone. He’s just picking as many radical-types as quickly as possible.
Right, he didn’t have to vet him, he already KNEW he was a radical commie and he liked it so he hired him.
Obama wasn’t even vetted. Where is the documentation on his past?
It’s just like the Clinton Administration when all of those people couldn’t pass the background check, so they did away with the background check.
They are saying he did not fill out the questionnaire (lengthy).
That may or may not be a lie.
However, what HAS emerged this morning is that he filled out what is known as a S-86 (Special Form 86) where he listed in detail many things, which then created a discrepancy and raised *red flags*. In other words, he lied on it and they caught him. But the higher ups, (I assume Jarrett, perhaps Rahm, maybe even all the way to the President himself, OKed it regardless.
Van Jones documents on file cannot be destroyed. If somebody orders it, they must know that they face several federal punishment if caught. If any of them are lurking today, I would highly advise them not to touch such documents rather in hard file or data (soft) form, and just come clean on the whole thing.
I wish that was true, remember Sandy “the” Burglar?
ssssshhhh. i am warning and threatening them online. :-)
