"a series of vulgar epithets"
More vulgar than "wee-weed up"?
Posted on 09/07/2009 3:09:43 AM PDT by JohnHuang2
Top White House advisers deflected questions Sunday about former "green jobs czar" Van Jones, just hours after he submitted his sudden overnight resignation amid a growing furor over his previous statements and political associations.
Politicians had been calling for Mr. Jones to resign after it was revealed in recent days he signed a petition supporting Sept. 11 conspiracy theories and called Republicans a series of vulgar epithets in a widely circulated video of a speech he made shortly before joining the Obama White House.

Here's your pink slip. Have a nice Labor Day!
B. Hussein Obama famously told "Joe the Plumber" that his whole scam to 'revive' the economy rested on doing what liberals enjoy doing more than anything else in life (even more than having sex with interns): Spreading the wealth around.
With almost 15 million people looking for a job in Obama's miraculously 'recovering' economy that's shrinking, "Joe the Biden" last Thursday marked the 200-day milestone of Obama's failed stimulus package by claiming it's working better than expected.
Why, just look at all those new high-paying "green-collar" jobs Van Jones had saved or created! Such as __________. And don't forget all these __________. And it only cost taxpayers $30 billion. (Jones resigned over the weekend to devote time to organizing a mainstream, middle-of-the-road group called, Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement to Stop Whitey from Pumping Poison into Minority Communities.
Playing the role of trumpeting happy news about a trillion-dollar stimulus package that has yet to create a new job, Biden tried to assure liberals at the Brookings Institution that all is well. No -- better than expected! The stimulating 787 billion "dollars are going farther and working harder than we anticipated," said Biden. In fact, thanks to Obama's stimulus package (designed by Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid), the economy is sinking more slowly and jobs are tanking better than expected! This should explain why Pelosi and Reid are the two most despised politicians in America today.
Biden insisted hysterically that the "recovery act is doing more, faster, more efficiently and more effectively than we had hoped." He says that "When we took office back in January, the job losses were staggering," but now "the recovery act is working." So, let's tick off the list of achievements:
-- The jobless rate soared to a non-staggering 9.7% in August, highest in 26 years, while 216,000 nonfarm payroll jobs were destroyed. (Or, as Karl Marx and Van Jones would say, 216,000 proletarians joined the vast army of the unemployed.) That's according to the payroll survey. The BLS's household survey -- from which the jobless rate is derived -- showed an even brighter picture, with 392,000 jobs destroyed in August, on top of an equally non-staggering 529,000 jobs lost in June and July. The underemployment rate -- which includes workers forced to work part-time in Obama's booming economy, plus people who want a job but have given up their fruitless search -- soared to 16.8% in August, from 16.3 in July. Five million Americans have been unemployed for more than six months. The recession is over.
In August, 65,000 construction jobs were lost, 63,000 manufacturing jobs disappeared, 23,000 financial activities jobs vanished and 6,500 temporary service jobs were gone. In response, Robert Gibbs said, "We are losing more (jobs) than we're creating, but we're heading in the right direction."
-- Heading in the right direction, 570,000 people filed new claims for unemployment in the week ending August 29. The nation's top expecters were expecting 6,000 fewer claims. In more upbeat news, continuing claims rose 92,000 to 6.23 million. The expecters expected a rosier 6.12 million.
-- Five more banks got shut down by regulators on Friday, "bringing the total number of (bank) failures this year to 89, as losses on bad mortgages and construction loans continue to plague the financial industry," with up to 300 more banks possibly getting shut down in the next two years, (DailyFinance, 9/5). When he heard the news, Obama swiftly responded with another round of golf.
-- On Thursday, retailers posted widespread sales declines for August as consumers, apparently unaware that Robert Gibbs said things are headed in the right direction, spent only on necessities. It was the 12th consecutive monthly drop. And, during the crucial back-to-school sales week, "chain-store sales ended up being a disappointment, according to ICSC-Goldman's same-store tally which fell 0.5 percent in the Aug. 29 week for a minus 0.7 percent year-on-year rate, (Econoday, 9/1 -- H/T, The Market Ticker, 9/1. The AP said the dismal numbers were "better than expected."
-- Also headed in the right direction was the entire service sector of the economy (which makes up 90% of the economy) which shrank again in August. The service-sector ISM index came in under 50 -- indicating contraction -- and its employment index was even worse. Liberals point to last week's manufacturing ISM data, thinking that cash-for-clunkers is a sound basis for economic growth. Just like spending your way out of debt. Or spending another $1.5 trillion to save on health-care. Or borrowing $787 billion in order to lose 3 million jobs. Or hiring a lunatic like Van Jones to showcase your keen hiring skills.
And if manufacturing is going so great, why appoint a manufacturing czar to spur manufacturing? According to news reports tonight, Obama decided he now needs the Car Czar chap from the already understaffed and dysfunctional Treasury Department to become a Manufacturing Czar in order to "rebuild manufacturing", a special talent this Ron Bloom fella must've acquired during his union honcho gigs. Relax. Czar Nicholas Bloom proposes to "rebuild manufacturing" through new and innovative ways, like suffocating it to death with union rules which have done wonders for Detroit. Surprisingly, Bloom's resume claims he worked as special assistant to the United Steelworkers Union president. When has a union official ever done any actual work? So, if you're a blooming idiot appointing a union man to figure out manufacturing, Labor Day becomes the perfect venue to make the announcement! But if the goal is to spur manufacturing, what you do is appoint an industry CEO as *Union Czar* to finish off the unions -- manufacturing would take off.
In rearranging the deck czars on the Titanic in this way, just a day after Van Jones resigned to spend more time with his Truther lunatics under the bus, Obama keeps trying to pile on the evidence that he was elected in order to make Jimmy Carter look competent.
Anyway, that's...
My Two Cents...
"JohnHuang2"
It doesn’t ‘cap’ a series of missteps.
It is just another misstep in what will be 4 excruciating years of missteps.
0 may think he’s looking past van jones, but clips from every socialist/marxist that 0 has been appointing will make delicious campaign material for ANY upcoming elections.
Ohaha gave Jones $30 BILLION to do with as he pleased. This conniving Communist surely found numerous ways to shovel US government money to himself, his friends and relatives, during his blessedly abbreviated tenure.
Freeper grampadave summed it up well:
(1) Jones "platinum exit package" needs investigation.
(2) We demand an external audit of every government nickel and dime this turkey Jones spent.
(3) We demand external audits and L/E investigations WRT any and all contracts he gave to so called non-profits, companies, enviral groups and green corporations.
(4) Every government contact made by this green communist must get an external audit;
(5) Any and all government contracts Jones signed should be scrutinized.
(6) We demand a complete external audit of his agency's budget.
(7) Companies that faced any Chicago-type of black/greenmail thug pressure to agree with this thug Jones, need to get their story out.
(8) Contact Glenn Beck to start the ball rolling.

They can look past him and on to the FCC diversity czar.
To my way of thinking it’s just a little bit harder to lie your way out of a situation where there is video of you saying what you are now saying you didn’t say. Politicians=liars!
Van Jones is just ONE COMMUNIST FACE in this ADMINISTRATION! Show me a NON-COMMUNIST.....there aren’t any!
This must end.
Constitutional issues arise when people who work for the federal govt are not vetted properly.
VALERIE JARRETT---THE SECURITY RISK Van Jones cheerleader Valerie Jarrett, and every Czar and enforcer, who works for Jarrett and Ohaha must be investigated.
Jarrett should also be audited by IRS and the SEC while the FBI does a "real" background check on her.

There was no misstep. This was deliberate.
Does everybody forget the lengthy application process touted in the media in order to work for this administration? Does everybody forget the questions about firearm ownership in that questionaire?
Van Jones was known by background, yet still granted top access to the White House. That can only come from senior members....President, VP, First Lady or Chief of Staff.
It was Michelle who was his personal advocate.
Liz,
YOu hit the nail on the head! Look up Northwest Progressive Institute, I found an interview they did with Valerie Jarrett on August 15, 2009.
Excerpt from article, “What’s it like to get to work in the White House?”
“There isn’t a single day that I don’t come to work that I don’t pinch myself... about the opportunity we have to change this country,” Jarrett said.
More from the article, “Has ethics reform (specifically, the “revolving door” prohibitions) made it difficult to hire good people to work in the Obama administration?
Not really, according to Jarrett. They had so many applicants to choose from that they felt they were able to hire the people that they really wanted. Jarrett also explained that traditionally, lobbyists would bring their clients to the White House to introduce them to the administration; Jarrett has abolished this practice, and lobbyists aren’t happy about it, to her satisfaction.”
More from Jarrett follows and I quote, “Jarrett said “Regulatory reform is something that we’re going to be asking for your support [as it moves through Congress].” She also explicitly mentioned that the President remains committed to creating a new consumer protection agency, an idea that has faced opposition from the chiefs of the FDIC and the SEC.”
VAN JONES IS JUST A SYMPTOM OF A MUCH LARGER PROBLEM AS THE ELOQUENT VALERIE JARRETT ILLUSTRATES.

Read the whole thing for more enlightening words from good old Valerie.
Great find, azkathy.
If Jones is any indication, all of Ohaha's czars are security risks. Jones cheerleader Jarrett and every Czar and enforcer who work for Jarrett and Ohaha must be investigated. Constitutional issues arise when people who work for the federal govt are not vetted properly. Jarrett and the czars should also be audited by IRS and the SEC while the FBI does a "real" background check on them.
WE ARE NOT LETTING THIS GO WITHOUT GETTING SOME ANSWERS

"a series of vulgar epithets"
More vulgar than "wee-weed up"?
Children say the pledge of allegiance to the Flag, they are taught about the country and its founders and former leaders, Presidents, etc. They have never been asked to write a paper how a current 8 month old president inspires them and how to help him. Once again its all about Obama and he tried to force our children to think that is OK. This current Pres is dangerous, he really does have dictator type behavior plus he has a worse swagger than BWB by a mile.
Hahaha, “Union Czar” , you got me with that one.
Good article.
