One of the (many) irritating things about being a Republican in the liberal Bay Area is the certainty that if there is a story out there that makes conservatives look stupid - like the protests against President Obama's Tuesday speech to America's students - then you know that wherever you go, folks are going to ask you about that particular flap. What do you think about Obama's speech to students? Or what about those nutty town hallers? Or what about those nasty people who claim Obama wasn't born in Hawaii?
I'm supposed to be grateful for the opportunity to prove that, unlike "the mob," I'm a reasonable conservative, a good conservative - perhaps even worthy to be included at the table when Bay Area luminaries look askance at middle America. All I have to do is behave myself and confirm their belief that everything would be right in the world were it not for the right's great unwashed.
Which is why I love the Van Jones brouhaha. Jones tendered his midnight resignation over the Labor Day weekend as Obama's "green jobs" czar after conservatives unearthed an embarrassing paper trail detailing his fringe political beliefs. Now the shoe is on the other foot - except instead of "birthers," the left has to deal with 9/11 "truthers."
When the left didn't own Washington, liberals had the luxury of ignoring their fringies. Now that Obama has put a true believer on the federal payroll, however, the free ride is over and the spotlight is harsh.
It would be wrong not to dwell on some of Jones' more interesting public moments.

If that woman’s a conservative I’m an ear of corn.
They are not nutty.
- Or what about those nasty people who claim Obama wasn’t born in Hawaii?
They are not nasty.

What happened to the Vichy Republicans who were impressed
by the One's suave and cosmopolitan Harvard sophistication?
Jones was both a ‘truther’ and thought the US of A deserved what it got. So, just to make sure I understand...Bush orchestrated 9/11 (Bush is bad), but we deserved it (so Bush is good?).
Sorry, I just can’t keep up with it all...
Only in Liberal fantasy land. It made those who brought attention to Obama’s somewhat foiled attempt at getting the youth to “help me” look pretty smart.
We have only his word that he ever went to college. No records says he's lying.

This dumb wench doesn’t acknowledge the fact that CONSERVATIVES are THE reason bambi changed his speech. If we didn’t raise a fuss and threaten to keep our kids out of screwel, the the kids would have been subject to pure leftist propaganda. How incredibly stupid this lady is!
LOL
I wouldn't worry too much about being served as a "side order" anytime soon.
Rest assured that should real Conservatives come to power, this "author" will suddenly remember that she was for whatever they were for .... before she was against it.
