Self proclaimed Communist of the radical left to be given the image award Friday...NAACP President: "This country has a shameful history of taking people who have done great things and casting them-creating distractions, discrediting them for things deep in their past"...He calls Jones an "American treasure"...(CNN Exclusive report)

He calls Jones an “American treasure”...

Let’s bury him!

[FlyingEagle]

Van Jones is a self-described communist. America need not employ nor honor the sleaze-ball.

[Renegade]

Put him in a litter box and the cats WOULD bury him !

[mnehring]

When I think of “American Treasures” I think of those who have contributed to our artistic identity, done great things with politics, made great strides and discoveries in medicine and science, too leaps and bounds in the literary world, or contributed to our national identity.

On the other hand Van Jones has... well, he has.. he created.. well.... he discovered well...

OK, he has talked, that’s about it.. and not even uplifting speech that improves America, instead, he tears America down.

NAACP = National African American Communist Party?

Sorry if you've seen this on the other Van Jones threads tonight. But these 'details' need to be on these threads for when they show up on internet searches. Much of it is intended for dopey libs who still don't know, believe, or understand what is happening in our country today.

Van Jones became a revolutionary communist following the 1992 L.A./Rodney King Riots (58 dead)

"Jones was arrested during the L.A. riots and spent a short time in jail. "I met all these young radical people of color," he recalls, 'I mean really radical: communists and anarchists. And it was, like, "This is what I need to be a part of." I spent the next ten years of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary.'..."

By the late 1990s, Jones was a committed Marxist-Leninist-Maoist who viewed police officers as the arch-enemies of black people, and who loathed capitalism for allegedly exploiting nonwhite minorities worldwide. He became a leading member of Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement (STORM), a now-defunct Bay Area Marxist-Maoist collective that was staffed by members of various local nonprofits, a number of whom had ties to the Ella Baker Center.

In the early 2000s, Jones and STORM were active in the anti-Iraq War demonstrations organized by International ANSWER, a front group for the Marxist-Leninist Workers World Party. STORM also had ties to the South African Communist Party and it revered Amilcar Cabral, the late Marxist revolutionary leader (of Guinea-Bissau and the Cape Verde Islands) who lauded Lenin as "the greatest champion of the national liberation of the peoples." (In 2006 Van Jones would name his own newborn son "Cabral" -- in Amilcar Cabral's honor.)"

From David Horowitz's FrontpageMag.com /DiscoverTheNetworks.org:

"Throughout its history, one of RCP's [Revolutionary Communist Party] principal objectives has been to foment civil unrest in the United States. The most notable example of such efforts occurred on April 29, 1992, when RCP members looted and trashed the downtown and government districts of Los Angeles, triggering the infamous Rodney King riots. During the days immediately preceding the violence, RCP -- which maintained close ties to the L.A. gangs known as the Crips and the Bloods -- had circulated throughout South Central Los Angeles a leaflet featuring a statement by RCP National Spokesman Carl Dix, titled 'It's Right To Rebel' -- a quote popularized by Mao Zedong.

Encouraged by Dix, RCP activists helped lead the riots that would leave 58 people dead, more than 2,300 people injured, some 5,300 buildings burned, and $1 billion in property damaged or destroyed. On the ten-year anniversary of the rioting, RCP member Joseph Veale fondly recalled the violence as 'the most beautiful, the most heroic civil action in the history of the United States.'"
