LOL - Obama could have REFUSED the resignation
and Van would have obliged.
Instead, Obama opted for his standard compassionate response:

See how Axelrod tried his very best not answer Shuster's questions regarding Van Jones.
(Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.tv ...
...no he gave him a choice; either quit or sleep with the fishes.
if Jones was not hearing anything negative from up top then why did he quit? on a Sunday when everyone is busy going to the beach or barbecuing? liars. And if he did not hear anything negative from up top then do they agree with all his 9/11 troofer and racist and unAmerican comments?
Maybe so but I’d bet a dollar to a donut that he told him to do it at Saturday midnight on the holiday weekend.
Hmmm...Gregory did a good job asking pointed questions. The fact that he didn’t get answers isn’t surprising.
LOL
Nice tapdance, Chubs.
................no he gave him a choice; either quit or sleep with the fishes..................
Nah! Zer0 is so weak, and has never ever had a job where he has been responsible for people reporting to him, not even a lemonade stand, he wouldn’t know how to fire an employee.
Rahmbo sent “Van” a dead fish!
This is not the man odumbo thought he was but now that he knows resign at midnight on a holiday weekend. Then go on TV and cry about leaving, something stinks but it is just bo
What did Obama Know and when did he Know it?
Axelrod is a professional liar, and of course there is no way on earth that Jones quit of his own accord.
He was “a distraction” and Zer0 had him thrown under the bus.
The discussion between Axelrod (Mr. Public Relations) and Zer0 probably went like this:
Axelrod: “Mr. President, Van Jones has become caught up in some past statements that are becoming a distraction to our PR efforts with health care.”
Zer0: “I can’t have any distractions. Make them stop.”
Axelrod: “Yes sir, no more wee weeing. Righty roo.”
(Axelrod on the phone with Jones 10 minutes later)
Axelrod: “Van, I need your resignation by 5:00 PM today, Saturday.”
If what Van Jones said or did is defensible, then Obama could have refused the resignation, and told Van to “stick it out”.
Of course Obama did not tell Van to resign. He told Axelrod and Axelrod asked him to resign.
Axelrod is a paid mouthpiece. A role he plays perfectly. And probably another closet left-winger.
Wake up people. Axelrod is
the President.
No, 0bama gave Van a stack of stimulus cash to insulate the inside of Van’s freezer
"mmmm donuts"
That’s unfortunate for Obama.
