That’s because he IS a radical, left-wing nutjob!
Read up on his family background and life-long associations. You will come to the same conclusion.

Most of those entities are run by radical, left-wing nutjobs too!
I agree with the others that he probably will not go. He is everything that O-hole’s super far left big money supports want. He is good looking, and is extremely radical. For O-hole to dump Jones would be a huge slap at the radical money base and would cause O-hole to have erosion of his base support. Plus actually in a Machiavellian way, Jones is good for our side. He will make a great poster boy for the 2010 elections.
He is definitely an excellent target for conservatives.
Jones to me is like Obama II. I can see the left falling for his jive the same way they did Hussein’s and him becoming a factor once Obama departs the scene. Jones might be a step too far as far as radicalism is concerned but that will make the lefties adore him all the more.
Mark Lloyd is another one to watch out for, big-time.
Someone will have to explain to me the difference between a person who believes the government destroyed the Twin Towers and someone who thinks the government killed JFK.
Both groups have a similar, paranoid turn of mind, I think. And a strong willingness to disregard the evidence.
A rationalized belief system where all evidence can be fitted to a pre-existing conclusion.
I like that statement. It sounds like it came from a psychology journal.
I think that’s why folks like conspiracies, it beings order to a necessairly messy world, and confers on them a feeling of having power in the form of special knowledge.
I couldn’t have said it better myself. It’s one thing to disagree and play Devil’s advocate in order to check the expert’s reasoning but to simply disregard every fact is ridiculous.
My son came up with a great argument against the truthers. The largest “fact” they have is the Twin Towers came down just like a controlled demolition. His comment to the truthers is why on earth would the bombers use a controlled demolition if they wanted a large body count? Any terrorist or bomber would have dropped those towers like a tree guaranteeing a massive death count in the hundreds of thousands.
The biggest puzzler for me is why someone like Obama who knows he’s been accused of having far left tendencies would appoint a glaring commie like Jones to an important post and not think people wouldn’t notice and object? Is Obama that clueless, or he just so far left he thinks Stalin was a moderate?
He’s that far left...and more!
He’s got America-hate in his bones and this likewise anti-American, San Fran sissy Jones must appear like a twin brother to Hussein.
Zippy has his alter-ego in the WH now and I’m sure he thinks of axing Jones like cutting off his right arm.
