Green is the new red...

A recent national poll, which included 80 percent self-identified Democrats, produced fascinating results: 76 percent of African-Americans want Congress to make economic recovery instead of climate change its top priority.

No offence to the constituency, but given Obama's redistributionist rhetoric and overwhelming support in this group, I wonder if they interpret economic recovery the same way I do. Do they interpret it as more government giveaways and redistribution, or as a growing of the working, private sector economy, with the increase in jobs and real wages that brings?

Jones,Ayers, and Wright believe America got what it deserved on 9/11.

IMHO, Obama and his wife have the exact same belief.

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

"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.'"

A teachable moment: John Podesta and the Center for American Progress embrace Van Jones.

I personally think Van Jones should have remained at his job. The American people need to have their noses rubbed into the caca they elected on a daily basis as reminder that elections do have consequences.

Laughably, the clown David Gergen was on CNN defending Jones as “brilliant”. How a moron like Gergen could possibly recognize “brilliance” even if he saw it is anybody’s guess.

Look at the list of the book’s endorsers: Al Gore, Gavin Newsome , Carl Pope, Thomas Friedman, Tavis Smiley, Senator Tom Daschle, Larry Brilliant, Arrianna Huffington, and Nancy Pelosi. To top it all off, the forward of the book was written by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. This list of supporters is a veritable “who’s who” of powerful liberal activists.

Hopefully the helpful media will yell this from the mountaintops.

[Col Freeper]

Let’s insist, as voting citizens, that Jones’ replacement focuses more on problem solving than rhetoric. Let’s insist that he unifies the races and classes with a balanced green strategy.

No to a replacement.

No to a "balanced green strategy."

Just NO, NO, NO!

Jones was apparently not a follower of the Rev. Ike.
