Sage words, my friends. Left unmentioned: If you ignore his advice and crank up the crazy, you can always get a job as a czar in the Obama White House. They won’t even Google you.
Or will they?
According to several White House sources, Jones was hired for his “green jobs czar” positions over concerns raised by the White House Counsel’s Office, after Jones’s background materials came back with several of what were termed “inconsistencies” in the Standard Form 86 Questionnaire for National Security Positions.
The counsel’s office places part of the blame on the Office for Intergovernmental Affairs and Public Engagement, which is overseen by Obama Senior Advisor and Assistant to the President Valerie Jarrett. Jones’s “czar” job was created by the OIAPE, and Jarrett interviewed Jones for the position. In speeches before far-left groups over the past five months, Jarrett touted Jones’s hiring, in part, because the groups, many of which count 9/11 truthers and radical environmentalists and anti-capitalists as members, were familiar with Jones’s brand of anti-Americanism and economic radicalism…

I laughed when I heard him say this on TV. I expected him to scream, “And for Pete’s sake, don’t let them tape you and put it on YouTube!. It could come back to haunt ME.”
This speech was a total waste of time for Obama, the students, and the schools. It became a lame speech after it was protested so vehemently by parents when they learned that Obama wanted the high schoolers to show and discuss how they could “help” Obama and his presidency. It was to be another campaign speech to young, impressionable students and no one was thought to object. Now that his poll numbers have tanked, he is trying to revive them by unduly influencing young, impressionable minds. When he got found out, he backpeddled and made the speech that parents make to their kids weekly. What a waste of everyone’s time. What a waste of the presidency.
Vacate. Begone. Flee back to your native land before the peasants come with pitchforks and torches to evict you!

Certain irony here since they have hired some firm to harvest data (i.e. comments, etc.) from social networks where there is a wH presence—which is pretty much everywhere.
Yeah, kiddies, be careful about exercising those First Amendment rights.

Suddenly I feel like watching Frankenstein. Think ‘O’ got abbynormal’s brain?
Allahpundit doesn’t get it. Van Jones is a big hero! A martyr! A little dishonest, maybe - lied to his employer. A little goofy politically. Not an admirer of the U.S. or it’s economy. But a martyr nonetheless! And no matter what he says, what he does, or whether he lies about it, he can always get a well-paying job from his fellow leftists.
