WASHINGTON - An environmental adviser for President Barack Obama, Van Jones, has resigned amid controversy over past inflammatory statements, the White House said early Sunday.

Van Jones, an administration official specializing in environmentally friendly "green jobs," has been linked to efforts suggesting a government role in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and to derogatory comments about Republicans.........."

So, Justa, Ban Jaws resigned inside my, ahem.., famous good week?

LOL! Congrats for the first deification result: a thug, gutter-spoken, shitty, bastard, SOB, criminal, (if I carry on, I’ll be banned!)

Sorry for the colorful language but I had enough of usurpers.

Will be waiting for further deifications, including the biggest turd of them all!

I thought it was his statement that “white polluters” were poisoning black communities. That was vicious, or at least I thought so. Too inflammatory.

By far the worst was released tonight--his 9/12/2001 statement BLAMING AMERICA for the attacks. As John Hill of DefendGlenn said tonight--it was exactly the "chickens coming home to roost" rhetoric that Rev. Wright engaged in--except this was Rev. Wright in the White House! Devastating. They knew America would be outraged by this vile statement. I think that's why they cut him loose before the Sunday shows.

WOO HOO! Exactly as Fox News pundit Jeff Birnbaum (and others) predicted on Thursday or Friday night: "Van Jones will probably be gone by Tuesday, 9/8."

One self proclaimed communist Czar down... what is it, 32 to go?

Oh yeah. You’re so right!!!!!

He does take everything personal, to the degree that he has to comment on the slightest criticism.

It’ll be a personal feat for him if he can stop himself from mentioning Glenn Beck by name.

No kidding! We all have to be ever vigillant and keep these people in our sights.

I have to say, though, that Biggie O seems to be finally bringing out the best in more and more of our patriotic citizens! He doesn't intend to but he just might be the reason for The American Revolution....Part II!

I drive this route visiting family up north about twice a year, and I was shocked to see this. Last December there were crops galore. Now there are two hundred miles of dirt, because the federal government took away the farmers' water. Incredible. I'd like to know what the deal is!

They claim the "deal" is the Delta Smelt, a non indigenous species that was brought into CA in the 1940s. Supposedly the pumps kill them. So? They have survived this long what makes them think they won't survive longer and who cares if they don't?

The real deal is more sinister than that and I have several theories: One:)They are trying to starve people out as the communists have always done(most logical explanation since the greenies are nothing but an extension of the communist party). Two)It is a land grab scheme, make the farmers fail, then buy up the land for pennies on the dollar when they are forced to sell. Three)Simply a tactic to further destroy the economy and bring us to our knees.

It has to be one of those reasons. Why we are putting up with it in this state I have no idea. What is really bad is this law was passed while Bush was still in office in Dec 2008. Why did he sign this crappy law?

I’d like to know what the deal is!..

It’s called sustainable development; been going on for a long time and it’s everywhere. It means sustain wildlife and sacrifice human development and/or erase human carbon feet prints, etc.

It’s all a sick plan to starve America from it’s love of freedom..
