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

I agree.

This guy is a head case, and very dangerous. But most likely he’ll be placated with a fat job at GE or some commie NGO or university.

Middle of the night resignation. Similar to middle of the night passage of bills. It’s a start, anyway!

I am from the Twin Cities of St. Paul and Minneapolis. I did a search on Van Jones in both cities’ newspapers. Search results: 0 entries.

He is so personally close to the Resident, I expect Jonesy will show up in some other more discreet and powerful spot.

That wouldn't surprise me at all. I have always felt that people who are delighting on seeing Obama throw another one under the bus don't realize that being under the bus does them no permanent damage, and these people are simply out of view, not gone. I'm sure Ayers and Wright are in and out of the WH or being consulted by Obama's Blackberry on a daily basis.

Probably too late at night to make the papers, but you can bet there'll be a small note somewhere in the papers on Monday.

Excellent info. Ping for later.

Who’s next?

Don’t know if everyone’s seen this yet, but Jack Webb schools Zero. :) Very appropriate to the moment.

It’s tragic that we don’t have a press that will report on things like this so that most people would know about him. I’m talking of the networks and CNN and AP etc.

I thought this guy was the replacement to number 29?

Sure we need to do some, We the People vetting, but we need to demand 0bama answer for appointing these people.

And no Mr. 0bama the, “I don’t know response” is not acceptable.

"On the eve of historic fights for health care and clean energy, opponents of reform have mounted a vicious smear campaign against me," Jones said in his resignation statement. "They are using lies and distortions to distract and divide."

Smear campaign? Lies and distortions?

Look in the mirror, Mr. Jones.

I vote we let Glenn Beck lead the next charge, too. He’s earned the honor.

[savedbygrace]

What’s weird is that the link goes to a Fox News page with an AP story. The AP story says, “FOX News’ Glenn Beck repeatedly denounced Jones after a group the adviser co-founded, ColorofChange.org, led an advertising boycott against Beck’s show to protest his claim that Obama is a racist.”

Well, that’s not true, not the correct timing. AP is wrong. But Fox News just pasted the AP story, with the error, without comment, as though it were true, therefore maligning their own guy.

Weird.

Saw this bit of good news on Fox in the wee hours. He was stopped but not until after he had already been handed the keys. Ever vigilant, ever vigilant.

Dismantle the shadow government of obama-ayers.

[Freedom_Is_Not_Free]

Good list. Also, Mark Lloyd, FCC Chief Diversity Officer (another czar really).

[Right Wing Assault]

Down with the czars! These people are essentially heads of new cabinets made up by Emperor obie. We want Senate confirmation and accountability.

[Right Wing Assault]

I expect Jonesy will show up in some other more discreet and powerful spot.

No doubt he will be a 'consultant' the the new czar.

[Prole]

The democrat party has infiltrated many communists into our government that still need to be removed from office.

Heaven help you if you are trying to count them all!
