Are we speaking about the same Van Jones?

The one I know of is the racist who said this recently:

“... even the most liberal, well-intentioned white person has a virus in his or her brain that can be activated at an instant. And so what you’re seeing now is a curtain falling away.”

Same guy, reverting to his more typical form, and at his worst with those comments. I wonder if he realizes that statements like that make him the kind of racist he speaks of? Probably not.

As I noted, the cognitive dissonance must induce some pretty interesting mental gymnastics in people like Jones.
