So What if Van Jones Resigns? Other Extremists Wait in the Wings

Van Jones, self-avowed Communist and Barack Obama's 'green jobs czar,' is rumored to be resigning.

So what?

Obama has more radical, leftwing extremists already in the White House and an entire pool of these nutcases from which to choose yet another Marxist for the job.

In fact, Obama's senior political adviser who has been with him since the early days of his political career in Chicago is another extremist. Her name is Valerie Jarrett, and her views on a variety of issues mirror those of Jones, Emanuel, Lloyd, and Holdren.

The biggest extremist is setting right in the oval office!

Pretty dumb question the author asks. It will give Glen Beck and others plenty of additional chances to continue to expose Obama and his ilk as the Marxist-Socialists that they are. The country is catching on and it is the unveiling of Obama’s “associates” that is a key feature of this situation. That is, if the One does not move to keep them from the airways.... and in that event, watch out.

Aside from the humiliation factor and a small amount of public embarrassment for Obama, Van Jones is just one of several “acorns” in the Obama organization, of which he’s the CEO.

Stupid voters elected him right along with the democrat majorities in both houses of congress.

Van Jones is not going away. He might resign, but he’s not leaving “the scene.” He’ll manage to do feed off the taxpayer by the billions and create hate and discontent.

I believe this may be the one hang-up the O Admin may have about sacking this guy. The minute they let him go it will only juice-up the witch hunt after any/all of the remaining czars. It will legitimize (in the MSM sense) more scrutiny of the whole bunch and I think they are afeared of that.

Here let me help. Then we will take the next one out like Israel did with Hammas leaders. Pretty soon all will know what a bunch of douche bags Obama has hired. Bring ‘em on!

At this point it isn't even about Van Jones. It is about Zero. Valerie Jarret makes it clear in the intorduction she gave him several months ago that he was brought in BECAUSE of his extreme opinions. Now it is about Zero himself. His lack of judgement at the minimum, if not his duplicity if he actually shares the beliefs of the "people he surrounds himself with" (his own words). Rev. Wright, Father Pfleger, Ayres, Doern, now Van Jones, and the list is growing. All radical Marxists bent on destroying America. No, as Van Jones himself said, "We are way past that now." Indeed we are. We are WAY past that now.

I hope Van Jones stays, and 0bama vigorously defends him in public.

“Pretty dumb question the author asks.”

Like saying if you kill the visible roaches there’ll be more coming out of the woodwork. Well I got news for him - we got more cans of RAID.

The best thing to do with these vermins is to keep shining some strong light on them - and spray and stomp on them while they scatter.

Its going to be like “whack-a-mole” ... bang one down and another will pop up. But isn’t that the “joy” of the game, otherwise who would every play it? (hmmm whack-a-czar ... has a nice ring ... maybe the beginnings of a marketing plan?)

[BRK]

Bingo! They have to be very careful. I am predicting a round of “the new McCartyism” accusations. That should do the trick.

[Clintonfatigued]

If Van Jones resigns, it will be a beginning. Perhaps the beginning of the end of the Obama Administration.
