Uhmm..how people in the world know an actual communist? Its not like saying "I know a Methodist".
As to this editorial: there is simply no refutation, no wrangling with Van Jones previous declarations from his anti-whitey quotes to his revolutionary quotes, to his preposterous claim first that he didn't know he was listed in this truther signatory ad to how now he doesn't believe in the ad's message. Redmond simply says, "This is ridiculous" while not refuting any of the charges made about Van Jones based on his own statements and speeches.
Redmond obviously would never inquire, just like the rest of the liberal media establishment, as to why Van Jones had never denounced over the last five years his name being attached to this statement since he now claims he is not in agreement. He can't say he doesn't agree with the signing statement and then not show that he denounced his supposed involuntary inclusion on the list. That's simply a question Van Jones could never answer because he did indeed support it - his actions and lack of reaction provide no other possibility.
“But what amazes me is how quickly people who aren’t typically considered wackos have bought into this “
Yes, foolish people - believing that Van Jones actually meant what he said and did what he was caught on tape doing. Don’t right-wingers know that they should only “buy into” what the San Fran elite tell us to believe?
Yeah, it really “weird” that we actually take Van Jones words seriously as opposed to this author’s mindless adoration of all things associated with 0.
Thats because they now call themselves community organizers.
Or "environmentalists"
I'm sure this is likely what the enlightened Mr. Redmond sees at the political events he attends. I love your "Tim Redmond - Ace Reporter" hat. It's quite the ensemble dude.
That's Tim Redmond on the right, with the ponytail. So who do you believe? The conservatives, or Tim Redmond?
This is what I'd call a "no-brainer," even before you start picking apart Redmond's argument. And once you start picking apart Redmond's argument, you realize that it can be summarized in five words: "Take my word for it." If you trust the Tim Redmonds of the world to vouch for Van Jones, you're too stupid to be a conservative.
And the “Fox All-Stars” actually think that Zippy is going to axe someone who is that kind of icon to the left?
I really don’t think so! He’s already made the lefties mad enough by offering to compromise on Obamacare. He needs them and their money amd will not further alienate them.
Says a radical.
From the comments: ;)
“Rick H.:
Not being able to recognize van jones for the kook that he is more or less brands you as a kook yourself.”
Thats because they now call themselves community organizers.
Or progressive, or liberal, or Democrat.
I remember back in the sixties when a number of leftist radicals were asked if they were simply commies. Of course they all denied it. As it turned out, a great many of them were actual communists. In short, they were communist liars.
They are only going to defend 0’s commissars.
