Is Van Jones a quitter?

Posted on 09/06/2009 8:06:45 PM PDT by Halfmanhalfamazing

I'm just curious. Because it wasn't all that long ago that we repeatedly heard again and again and again from biased liberal journalists that Sarah was a quitter.

Dude, where's my objectivity?

Good point.

Van Jones did not “quit.”

He was thrown under the Obama bus, with the announcement at MIDNIGHT ON SATURDAY OF THE LABOR DAY WEEKEND. What sniveling cowards.

Well, in order to get proper media uncoverage, they have to throw a bone to the media so as to keep some propriety of objectivity on their part.

IOW, it would be harder for the media to ignore this if it were to happen say on a tuesday or so. But now they can convince themselves they have an excuse to ration the fact.

Yeah, I figured I’d get a lot of laughs out of the question.

I was laughing when I thought of it.

Well, if you listen to the Kos Kids, Van Jones is nothing short of an ingenious b@st@rd. He resigned so he could throw off the shackles of a government job and go after Glenn Beck with everything he’s got.

Isn't that what Sarah Palin did?

Except she was effective?

Yep. I’m thinking that’s where they got the idea that Van Jones is a genius.

For links of people - like Jessie Ventura - being critical of Sarah P. for quitting, go to:

google.com ==> news ==> search on palin +quitter

Results? 1,530 news articles

Then, search on "van jones" +quitter

Results? Zero (0) news articles

Wait a few months and try it again, and the number will still be close to zero.

Van Jones became a revolutionary communist during the 1992 L.A./Rodney King Riots (58 dead)
various sources

Posted on Sunday, September 06, 2009 10:19:07 AM ET by ETL

"Jones was arrested during the L.A. riots and spent a short time in jail. "I met all these young radical people of color," he recalls, 'I mean really radical: communists and anarchists. And it was, like, "This is what I need to be a part of." I spent the next ten years of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary.'..."

From David Horowitz's FrontpageMag.com /DiscoverTheNetworks.org:

"Throughout its history, one of RCP's [Revolutionary Communist Party] principal objectives has been to foment civil unrest in the United States. The most notable example of such efforts occurred on April 29, 1992, when RCP members looted and trashed the downtown and government districts of Los Angeles, triggering the infamous Rodney King riots. During the days immediately preceding the violence, RCP -- which maintained close ties to the L.A. gangs known as the Crips and the Bloods -- had circulated throughout South Central Los Angeles a leaflet featuring a statement by RCP National Spokesman Carl Dix, titled 'It's Right To Rebel' -- a quote popularized by Mao Zedong.

Encouraged by Dix, RCP activists helped lead the riots that would leave 58 people dead, more than 2,300 people injured, some 5,300 buildings burned, and $1 billion in property damaged or destroyed. On the ten-year anniversary of the rioting, RCP member Joseph Veale fondly recalled the violence as 'the most beautiful, the most heroic civil action in the history of the United States.'"

Van Jones was not under attack by the MSM - he is a self avowed Commie. Palin, however, is a red blooded American, and was under attack by the MSM for such outlandish stance, so when her tactics changed, she "quit."

The MSM is a cabal of commie filled, corrupt, lying stinkers.

Don't think Van Jones is gone from the stage. You can be sure that Mr. Van Jones is going to be running something, somewhere...for this administration. He may be off the green wagon, but one thing's for sure.

He's pissed off.

Hope it's not training or leading BHO's private civilian army.

Van Jones can easy cause more harm unrestricted and on the streets than sitting behind a desk in D.C.

As posted above, I’m sure he’ll be in the news soon - he has a bone to pick.

Olberman has posted asking anyone and everyone to send him all the information they have on Glenn Beck (at Daily Kos - are we allowed to post that name? yikes.)

It’s going to get ugly.
