>>>> why wasn’t an FBI probe done on these people? <<<<

Unless they need access to classified materials, there is no extraordinary requirement for that.

And even if there was a need, Zer0 is still the boss of the FBI and (in his role as President) the ultimate classification authority in America.

His speeches seem right out of the Nation of Islam, Farahcon playbook. If anything, he may be worse than them because they espouse capitalism for black businesses when he’s an out-an-out communist. He does share with them the belief that government is a conspiracy against black folks.

>>> This could very well turn out to be obama's biggest mistake yet because the appointment came directly from the WH. <<<<

Only 6,999 appointment to go. The Plum Book has 7,000 Presidential jobs.

http://www.gpoaccess.gov/plumbook/

The Plum Book (United States Government Policy and Supporting Positions)

Published by the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs and House Committee on Government Reform alternately after each Presidential election, the Plum Book lists over 7,000 Federal civil service leadership and support positions in the legislative and executive branches of the Federal Government that may be subject to noncompetitive appointment, nationwide. Data covers positions such as agency heads and their immediate subordinates, policy executives and advisors, and aides who report to these officials. The duties of many such positions may involve advocacy of Administration policies and programs and the incumbents usually have a close and confidential working relationship with the agency or other key officials.

"If the hubbub over Jones gets too noisy and bothersome in the next couple days, Zer0 will most certainly kick him under the wheels without a second thought."

In Obamaland, I'll bet there's plenty more where he came from.

How is it that it took Glenn Beck to unearth this guy’s background? Doesn’t the FBI vet these people?

FBI report summary on VJ: Our investigations find that VJ is an anti-war marxist with international ties.

Obama to FBI. Thank you for confirming that he will fit in nicely with our staff.

Never has the country faced an administration that employs people like Van Jones. Someone tell Obama that “Green” is about conserving not confiscating.

Jake Tapper picks up the Rense page but he too misses the #### separating the Truther march from the anti-American newspaper announcement.

The White House's response should be interesting.

You know, folks, I dont know about y'all, but, sometimes, this VAN JONES scandal gets to a point here, on FR, on the talk shows, on Fox, on Glen Beck, Mark Levin, Rush Limbaugh, Jerry Doyle, Michael Savage, Greta, Sean, et al et al where we know it all seven ways to Sunday, that the guy is a COMMUNIST and a NATIONAL SECURITY RISK working in our government at a high level...and that the WHITE HOUSE IS IGNORING THIS COMPLETELY.

WHEN, are we going to hear a high level Republican lawmaker come out and say HE IS GOING TO SEND A CONGRESSIONAL INQUIRY LETTER OR F.O.I.A. REQUEST OR BRING IT BEFORE CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEE AFTER SUMMER RECESS IS OVER??

To me, the Republican Party seems largely silent on this. We need them to crap or get off the pot. Lead, follow, or get out of the way.

We need to be setting specific dates by which we will have specific acts of accountability taken and responses/clarifications provided, by our elected Government, and if these are not taken in a satisfactory manner, then we ramp this up to the next level. They are playing a 'wait us out, wear us down' approach to keep Jones in office. Their strategy could work. We need to sharpen our spears more, I think, after several weeks of this and no action anywhere. I just dont know what that next action could be.

Can someone Twitter Jake Tapper and let him know of his mistake about the Rense.com page?

"Van Jones, Barack Obama's Green Czar, was part of the organizing committee for a leftist effort to undermine the United States in the war on terror just months after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001."

is this really a revelation? I thought it was common knowledge that he was a democrat.

This is your own find?

Way to go!

>>> 0 didn’t think we’d find out what the guy was really about and second had to have thought he could get away with it if we did find out. <<<<<

There is no doubt a huge number of Socialists, Truthers, Marxist ideologues, and racists in the Zer0 administration.

And so far he *has* gotten away with it.

Look how he got away with pawning off the Bill Ayers biography “Dreams From My Father” as his own *auto*biography.

I’m sure the Great Spreader is thoroughly non-plussed about the furor concerning Jones as he is similarly taken aback about criticism of his other leftist appointees and policies. He probably thinks to himself “what’s wrong with this guy? He’s like all my friends.” Obama has lived in a leftist bubble practically all his life, so he probably thinks these crazy, leftist wackos are normal...like him. Where’s the arugula?

Shock and surprise!!!!

Bob Becktel on FoxNews wonders how the vetting process failed to week out Van Jones.


[Am shaking head in disbelief. No one on Team Obama has received proper vetting, including Obama. Not from the media, who claim it is their duty. Not from the FBI.]

Becktel predicts that Jones will be on unemployment by Tuesday.
