Here is video of Glenn Beck this morning on Fox and Friends where he said he would be further exposing President Obama's "Green Jobs Czar," Van Jones, as "an avowed Communist."
Beck did a piece on Jones yesterday, reviewing his radical past, which did not deter Obama from naming him. . . . . (Watch Video)

The slumbering giant is stirring, and he's waking up hopping mad.
A PETITION ON FACEBOOK FOR CONSTITUTIONAL RESTORATION
A 4TH OF JULY TEA PARTY SPEECH
...and on the lighter side, take your mind off the Obamanation for a few minutes and enjoy some beautiful Western US scenery slideshows.
Excellent. I want to see Glenn Beck continue to expose this administration for what we know about it and who all the 0bama “Czars” are all about. None of them are accountable to elected officials and haven’t been vetted by anybody but 0bama and Rahm Emanuel.
Go Glenn Go!

“Yesterday, on his 48th birthday, Pres. Barack Obama announced the Green the Block campaign “to ensure that low-income communities and communities of color have the resources and platforms needed to access the benefits and opportunities of the growing clean-energy economy.”
Launched in partnership with Green For All and the Hip Hop Caucus, the nationwide campaign will rely on a coalition of organizations to educate and mobilize young people about how to take action on things like installing energy-efficient light bulbs in neighborhood homes, planting a community garden, and writing letters to local officials asking them to promote the use of more fuel efficient vehicles.
Green the Block is just one example of how youth culture — and in particular, hip hop culture — is transforming the way we advocate for sustainable cities and transportation. And it’s not just in the United States.
Take, for example, the events planned for the World Urban Forum in 2006, where artists like Curtis Clearsky and other UN-HABITAT Messengers of Truth performed at the Global Hip-Hip Mainstage to inspire young people to change their cities for the better. The United Nations recognized that “Hip-Hop is more than a genre of music or dance. It is a social movement.”
It’s about mainstreaming the idea of safer, cleaner and more accessible urban communities, and you can see it happening through what’s commonly referred to as “the five elements:” emceeing, breakdancing, deejaying, beat boxing, and the art of graffiti. Here’s a few examples from around the world:
MASTER OF CEREMONIES
Obama, himself, is the quintessential emcee for America’s youth, supporting the power of hip hop as a vehicle for change:
“I love the art of hip hop; I don’t always love the message of hip hop. The thing about hip hop today is that it’s smart, it’s insightful, the way that [rappers] can communicate a complex message in a very short space is remarkable. A lot of these kids are not going to be reading The New York Times. The question, then, is, what’s the content? What’s the message?
Art can’t just be a rear view mirror; it should also have a headlight out there pointing to where we need to go.”

His decision about “where to go” was made clear through the establishment of the White House Office of Urban Affairs, which proves his commitment to “promote strong cities as the backbone of regional growth.” This summer, the Office kicked off a National Conversation on the Future of America’s Cities and Metropolitan Areas, essentially convening a whole community of urban policy “emcees” who will be talking about “ways in which Washington can be a partner and catalyst for community-based solutions, instead of a bureaucratic obstacle.”
Another public figure who comes to mind as a hip-hop-inspired voice for a new generation of sustainable city advocates is Majora Carter, who wrote a $1.25 million federal transportation planning grant to conduct a feasibility study for the South Bronx Greenway. As an African-American woman who grew up in the South Bronx, Carter understands that some people think cleaning and greening a city will “kill” hip hop because it takes away from the suffering, which often fuels the art form. But, she said in an interview, “if we have industry that employs people and communities — that are beautiful — then hip-hop can just flourish. It will just be something new. It will be happy hip-hop!” Hence her motto: “Green the Ghetto!”, which is also the title of her organization’s blog, which recently posted this pic...”
Barack Hussein Obama:
"We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national-security objectives we've set, we've got to have a civilian national-security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded."
"I have to side with Justice Breyer's view of the Constitution--that it is not a static but rather a living document and must be read in the context of an ever-changing world."

"Green for All" baby. Can ya dig it?
Does anyone really care? I mean the Libs, of course. They are ALL Commies and Marxists and Totalitarians, or whatever you want to call them. They're all cut from the same cloth. THEY'RE IN POWER NOW. They're having a field day. They don't care what you call them.
They are not having a “field day” in the least. They are running for cover because they have pushed too far and the American people are waking up.

They’d best get used to it.
Thank you for that video! I hadn’t seen it but I will share it with others. Patriots are beginning to awaken and will soon unite.
The politicians may be running for cover - but the everyday Commies & Libs certainly aren’t. The everyday Lib will “school” you in political correctness, if you dare to deviate from it. You are forced to tolerate their perversions, proclivities, etc, in the name of “political correctness” and “diversity” - as well as being forced to deal with their mental illness regarding the environment, climate, green-ness, etc.
But yes, America is waking up. I hope it’s not too late.
