The Jones departure recalls another Democratic surrender: The indicated willingness to abandon a plan to fund voluntary end-of-life consultations after they were miscast by Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as death panels.
"As we've seen before, succumbing to these types of propaganda attacks from the right wing only emboldens the aggressors. This controversy will go away and they will trump up another one tomorrow, said David Brock, founder and chairman of Media Matters for America, a group that has taken on conservative commentators. No good comes from appeasing a lunatic bully like Glenn Beck."
"If Jones left under pressure from the Obama administration then we are in for a very long and painful four years, said Melissa Harris Lacewell, a political science professor at Princeton University. I would hate to think that Glenn Beck can simply shout down any member of the administration he chooses to target.

What is really funny is I don’t have cable (I’m in MI and we are cutting anywhere we can) so I watch Beck on TikiLive. There is a constant chat going down the side.
The conservatives give talking points
The libs throw kindergarten insults.
It’s entertaining!
” It wasn’t the speech itself, so much as the growing opposition to Obama. “
And I hope that continues after “ Sham Wow Barry” does his infomercial to congress on Wednesday.
Interesting comment by Bill Cristol on Fox News yesterday. He stated that Obama has now spoken 27 times on Health Care.
Hopefully people will realize that this shows he can’t think and deliver.
He can only read what someone else has written............
” Beck is going to take the czars down one at a time.”
And in doing so he will also expose Bill “ O Gas Bag” O’Reilly for the great bloviator that he is.
He’s the one who touts he is “ looking out for you”
Well Bill, Glenn actually walks his talk........
Too little , too late O Great One.
Back in the early 80s, I was the only white guy in a 10-piece funk band. I remember auditioning for a job in a black night club. The club-owner looked at me and asked the leader of the band, “Is this a mixed band?” When the leader said, “Yes,” the club-owner looked at me and asked, “How mixed?”
I’ve seen both sides of racism. It’s ugly from either end.
I think that eventually Beck will go to Hannity’s spot then into BOR’s.
But only when his fight is over.
Two weeks ago when I started watching on the internet, Blinkotv had around 700 viewers for Beck. As this played out, if you didn’t get in at the top of the hour, you were shut out (at 1000 viewers)
I then went to TikiLive. At 1000 viewers, the screen darkens and you can still hear him but it’s hard to see. That began to happen within five minutes of the show starting.
Beck is pulling them in.
” I think that eventually Beck will go to Hannitys spot then into BORs.”
Let’s hope so.
O’Reilly had his chance to expose Barry early on, but gave him a cream puff interview.
Beck would have chewed him up in an entertaining way, and exposed him for the lightweight he is.
Glenn cares for this country, Bill only cares about himself.
“He stumbled upon an accurate statement here, though:
They turned an anodyne presidential pep talk to students Tuesday into an illustration of the wide discomfort in parts of the country with Obamas presidency.”
While that statement is in fact accurate, you’ve got to look at it in the leftie code-speak in which it’s written: to the libs, “wide *discomfort*” means ‘all those stupid crackers who can’t accept a black guy as president’.
Of course, there’s no evidence that any significant fraction of the Obama opposition gives a rip about his race, so they usually try to approach that topic in veiled terms. But make no mistake about it, what the authors are trying to imply is that our poor commie-in-chief is getting harrassed just because he’s black.
” But make no mistake about it, what the authors are trying to imply is that our poor commie-in-chief is getting harrassed just because hes black.”
And the sad thing is that he is Bi-Racial, and they want to keep the shadow discrimination theme going.
Barry himself also fails on this point.
As Dr. Phil would say, “How’s that workin’ out for ya?”
Follow the money!
BTW, Love your tag line.
Just like gates.

No, but if they manage to do so, in the words of Obi Wan Kenobi:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
He is a minor player, he has no power, no budget, why take him?
Uh-uh...he had a $30 billion dollar budget baby. That is why we are demanding an audit.
Taxpayers demand a complete audit of Van Jones’ federal agency (capital toll-free 800-828-0498)

In its first 14 months, Green For All has grown into an organization with a multi-million dollar annual budget, 32 staff members and an online network of 70,000 people.
It has won a string of victories, most notably $500 million for green-job training as part of the $48 billion for job training and education in President Obama’s Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
It’s bad enough that we have the Chicoms and the Russians but a Communist reporting to POTUS, give me a break.

if you go to
www.melissaharrislacewell.com
you’ll see that she’s just an msnbc whore, but you can tell her what you think
This once again proves that nothing is going to be fixed in this country until something is done about media. They are the enemy and the front line. Beck can go after anyone he wants but as long a they have their backs, it is irrelevent.

Yeah Yeah Yeah...
Van was a low level nobody would did not have an impact in the White House.
Then why are the MSM and 0bama officials SO UPSET Van had to be thrown under the Bus?????
