Sunday, September 06, 2009

Former Democratic Party Chairman Howard Dean said Sunday that the resignation of White House green jobs adviser Van Jones is a "loss for the country."

The outspoken Democrat and former presidential candidate vigorously defended Jones, who resigned in the wake of criticism over his past statements and associations -- including his past support for a group that believes the Bush administration may have been involved in the Sept. 11 attacks.

"I think he was brought down," Dean told "FOX News Sunday," saying he just spoke to Jones. "I think it's a loss for the country."

What Dean meant to say was that, "Jones resignation is a loss of our marxist vision of the country."

Jones said he quit, and I quote, "after a vicious smear campaign against me."

Yep, Jones, it's those vicious smears of the truth that are the worst kind...ultimately, they'll get you every time. In the end, you can't run from who you are.

But the heart of this issue, which like with Gates, Wrigth, Ayers, etc. the mai stream media is not reporting, is this:

Look at Obama's inner circle throughout his life...and the picture is clear.

Van Jones = Frank Davis = Bill Ayers = Bernardine Dohrn = Jeremiah Wright = Tony Rezko = Rashid Khalidi = Raila Ordinga = Carol Browner = Rahm Emanuel = Henry Gates = John Holdren = Rosa Brooks = Eric Holder = Ezekiel Emanuel = BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

This is who the man is. A cauldron of corruption, greed, marxism and communism...with disturbing ties to Islam.

...he is also now the President of the United States of America, and he is going about, with a will, and very methodically destroying the free market and fundamental republican principle within our nation.

I thought that country had dissolved in December 1991.

I think he was brought down," Dean told "FOX News Sunday
How was he "brought down"?

Who has the power to "bring him down?"

The media didn't cover the story.

Obammy's party controls congress.

Everybody knows Glenn Beck is a bad guy and can't be believed.

So then who, exactly, "brought him down"?

Why did obammy pay attention to Fox News and fold on this one?

Is obammy a chicken-sh1t POS... or was Fox News (and Glenn Beck) ACTUALLY CORRECT???

Allow me to put this statement through the Transmogrifier: "I think he was brought down BY HIS OWN HAND," Dean told "FOX News Sunday," saying he just spoke to Jones. "I think it's a loss for the country WE USED TO CALL THE U.S.S.R."

There. That's better.

Not sure about the country, but Van Jones is a complete loss and he has been such for a long time.
Well, maybe not exactly complete, the bus is moving and that is what’s important for our Dear Leader...

Jones’ resignation means a scalp on Glenn Beck’s lodge pole.

I hope they keep talking that way. I'm sure it will help in the mid-terms to remind the country what scum they have brought in to run the country.

Really pegs Dean’s place on the political spectrum . He hid it to some extent before.

Valery Jarrett - closest adviser to the Dear Leader. She proclaim Van Jones a “visionary” and was bragging that he is coming to the Administration since March.

Not “the visionary”, of course, just “a”. “The” would be our Dear Leader.
