I had to take a time out to send a little message to my friend Jack Cafferty at CNN. He has a blog post focusing on Van Jones and asking if the White House should have so many czars.
SNIP
The conservative attack on Jones, a swift-boating and a smearing that left Jones with a new national identity to build from. Yes, he's got to overcome the YouTubing he's gotten and he can do this with, well, new videos. Van's not the radical he was in the past, but you know what, Sean Hannity's not cavorting with the White Supremacist Hal Turner anymore either right?

To my conservative friends at the conservative website Free Republic, er, Freepers, (and yes I do have Freeper friends and agree with them on not a few issues) which give me so much traffic (thanks!) I've got to let you know that people who support Van Jones, like me, aren't "commies" and in fact have some of you as friends.
I know it makes you feel good to haul off and trash people you don't know, but I think you're wrong about Van and would like him if you met him.
Give him a chance.
To Van, I say this: run for Mayor. For some weird, zippity-do-da, reason only the Lord knows, you've been given a powerful platform and an giant army of really pissed off supporters around America and certainly in Oakland.
You can do a lot of good here. Run for Mayor of Oakland. Strike while the iron is hot.

It would be perfect continuity for Oakland - Commie Ron Dellum to Commie Van Jones!
Sure...why not. Could be an improvement.
Ain’t that right!
Not funny.
A giant army of supporters? I guess that’s why he resigned, huh. All those supporters.
Sure, why not? Why let a little thing like being called an @$$hole get in the way of a beautiful friendship?
You forgot about Dellums' predecessor, Mayor Moonbeam hisself. Talk about a double play combo! "Brown to Dellums to Jones" doesn't have the ring of "Tinker to Evers to Chance", but they're just as deadly!
As a viable stepping stone to AG of California, I say no. Let him drift back into obscurity where he belongs.

The guy is an out and out commie. Watch the video to see the manipulation. Straight out of the Communist Manifesto 1848.
And around 1230ish on the video he says we use the flag to commit “genocide”, etc., and we’re also “fascists’ and “bigots. Screw him.
Oakland fine. The WH not so fine.
“a swift-boating and a smearing”
These people are clowns. Pointing out the facts of the guy’s life is neither a swift-boating or a smearing. Perhaps the writer can tell us why Jones was less than honest in his security application?
As for running as a carpet-bagging mayor of Oakland, I would say that the dishonest and avowed communist Jones is the perfect man for the job. The only thing that would make it better is if the Bay Area seceded from the Union.
Uh huh. Remember those who said it couldn't get any worse than George H.W. and then George W Bush?
It can always get worse.
True - but Brown is in a universe of his own.
Frankly, that's enough or me.
This sort of thing simply isn't subject to rehabilitation!
Agree with nick - not one bit funny!!!
ON THE INTERNET:

Leftists in office are the primary reason this country is declining.
You’ve proven yourself crazy on the national stage, now come on home to Oakland and really f*** things up, bruh!
“Pointing out the facts of the guy’s life is neither a swift-boating or a smearing.”
Actually, it IS swift-boating, but not smearing.
You are only half right. IT IS SWIFT-BOATING. The swift-boat veterans simply told the TRUTH about John F'in Kerry (who was in Vietnam if you didn't know). They served with him and new him to be a phony.
These men were patriots that served their country in Vietnam and then again by outing Kerry for the traitorous liar he is.
It should be considered an honor by any true patriotic American to be accused of "swift-boating" someone, or participating in McCarthyism.
Thanks!
“Knowing CNN as I do, I figured they’d post this and Jack would read it on the air, and they did and he did.
They have their sources. It’s like Pravda in action.
Sounds like a post on the DU. They never learn history. I don’t think they want to learn.
Since Van Jones was run out of the Czar job, doesn’t that make him a QUITTER?
Why would you say this? It’s not funny, revealing, but not funny.
new=knew
Thanks Cindy, was wondering, and you saved me the trougle of looking it up.
Go for it.
Oakland has an unemployment rate of 10.5%.
Let's see what you can do VJ.
Yeah why not Governor Moonbean ran for mayor of Oakland. seems to be the place to recycle tired ole socialist.
Perfect. Oakland is a sh*thole and what more perfect candidate than a racist tool governing a city which is the Detroit of the west coast.
Excellent idea.
What is left of Oakland after Jerry Brown ran a failing city further into the ground could benefit from the supposed green jobs he claims to be able to ‘create’. Let him try. The real world and real responsibility bite back. Of course, in Oakland they would keep him in power for years upon years - but I am so confident in the magnitude of his ability of to fail that I discount his ability to ever get out of Oakland (politically) again.

"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.'"

Nice to see the SF Chronicle can afford editors.
I'd go for that just to see Jerry Brown's future in CA politics completely ruined.
It would be so easy.
Admitted Commie? Check.
Foul mouthed? Check.
Believed the U.S. committed 9/11? Check.
Supports Cop Killers? Check.
Gee, who wouldn’t like the guy?
You probably won’t believe this, but I followed your link —this lib writer claiming he knows freepers— and I actually clicked on that film segment featuring Zennie Abraham’s trip to CNN.
All I could wonder the whole way through his profoundly stupid, sophomoric clip (with super shaky camerawork, worse than a high-school cheerleader) was:
WHAT FREEPER IS “PALS” WITH THIS GUY...!?
He has BUDDIES here ?!?! TOTAL LIE..!
Has FReeper friends my a**. If he has any FReeper friends they are trolls.
