Meg Whitman Blasts Van Jones

Weekly Standard ^ | 09/04/09

“My husband and I met him and many others on a cruise sponsored by National Geographic and The Aspen Institute. He talked about supporting job growth in California, but of course I did not do a background check of his past over dinner. As these reports have surfaced, it’s clear that he holds views that I entirely reject; any suggestion otherwise is ridiculous.” --Meg Whitman

Flip Flop....OUT!

[Snickering Hound]

Guilty, next...

[ryan71]

Another fool.

[pissant]

At least she has the good sense to immediately address this.

[ansel12]

Mitt Romney moved to California to help install her as Governor against any conservative that might have risen to challenge her.

"I'm not a partisan politician. My hope is that, after this election, it will be the moderates of both parties who will control the Senate, not the Jesse Helmses."

[BunnySlippers]

It does not sound like a flip flop to me. Sounds like she just met him and now he is VERY obviously a NUT.

[heiss]

I don’t see any problem here so attacking her based on this is just dishonest. Even serial killers often seem nice if you meet them in some social event.

As for the McCain pic in this thread, even that wacko free-speech hater, Fred Thomson was in much more connected with McCreepy.

TOO little, and too late...won’t patch up this damage that has been done. Need to keep a better eye on the other team...Meg W.

Of course? You interact with people without learning if they want to kill you or not? You can’t ask: “What are your politics?” Beat it. This isn’t a game of elitist self indulgence.

[Carl LaFong]

I’ll give Meg neutral feedback.

She had to do this. Her opponent’s side is already on this with a Love Boat Parody.

[Reagan Man]

Meg Whitman says she is opposed to the radical views of Van Jones. Yet her support for abortion rights and the anthropogenic factor related to global warming are more in line with Van Jones and Obama then those of most conservatives.

Whitman is a liberal Republican and would be better suited if she joined the Democrats. And she should take Mitt Romney with her.

I don’t think Czars are accountable to anyone or anything but 0bama.

[Earthdweller]

Another, cronie, socialism indoctrinated (Harvard), socialite, game player, spoiled rotten, appeaser, insider, out of touch, Romney cheerleader, elbow scratcher alert.

[ansel12]

This is much worse than that, here she is trying to sell the guy much later on video.

Hey Meg, your knee-jerk reaction was to bend over backwards to publicly support the guy, just because he was black. Simple as that. And you telegraphed who you really are, another mush-head proponent of political correctness.

[RummyChick]

I am giving her negative feedback. She is selling a line..and as a buyer SHE CAN’T NEG ME.

It’s a one way street, baby,on Ebay.

And the great thing is...it won’t take too many negs to have her selling privileges revoked. Just a few low numbers on her Dashboard and she is out the door.
