Obama's Ex-Green Jobs Czar Lands Quickly (Red Jones back at old job)

For fallen White House aides, the rallying cry apparently is John Podesta to the rescue! The Obama administration’s former green jobs czar Van Jones is headed back to Podesta’s Center for American Progress after stepping down from his White House post four days ago amid controversy over his leftist affiliations, the Daily News has learned.

Dubbed a radical environmentalist by his right-wing critics, Jones was linked to a group that had insisted the Bush administration was aware the 9/11 attacks had been planned, but did nothing to stop the terrorist plot. His supporters counter that Jones is one of the foremost experts in the emerging area of environmentally sustainable jobs.

Jones chose to quit rather than cost Obama the political capital it would have taken to save his job, saying now was not the time for the President to turn his attention from his agenda.

No, he belongs to a group that says the Bush Administration was behind 9-11.

Yes, that’s also true. Look at Beck’s flow chart for the Apollo Alliance and you’ll see, Podesta’s group right in the middle.

To what extent did any of these groups and their members participate in the deception using the COLB?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

“The Center for American Progress is a liberal[1][2][3][4] public policy research and advocacy organization. Its website describes it as “... a nonpartisan research and educational institute dedicated to promoting a strong, just and free America that ensures opportunity for all.”[5]

Its President and Chief Executive Officer is John Podesta, who served as chief of staff to then U.S. President Bill Clinton. Located in Washington, D.C., the Center for American Progress has a campus outreach group, Campus Progress, and a sister advocacy organization, the Center for American Progress Action Fund. Citing the significant number of its staff and former staff that have been appointed to positions in the Obama Administration, Time magazine recently declared that there is “no group in Washington with more influence at this moment in history.”[6]

so. Van Jones has only exited the stage, but he’s still behind the curtains...

Heck, he's one of those pulling the curtain strings. The more I learn about all of 0bama's shenanigans, mentors, thugs, cohorts, etc, the more I'm convinced that this has been well planned for years.

WTF? Van Jones has ZERO knowledge regarding enviromental eco systems. He's a "civil rights lawyer" whose expertise is in creating models to destroy capitalism and redistribute wealth as a form of reparations.

Green Jobs=Wealth Redistribution

Next time I hear someone in this administration talking about Green Jobs, I will know they are speaking code for America's conversion to communism and wealth redistribution for the purposes of reparations.

Special thanks to Glenn Beck for exposing this commie revolutionary.
