Money Quote:

Jones was forced to resign, as the Marxist "progressives" at the Rag Blog website fully understand, because the investigation of Jones was getting too close for comfort for Obama and his inner circle. Sacking Jones was a way for the White House and the major media, just beginning to take an interest in the story, to move on.

True Identity???

I already know this guy is a Marxist and that any radical nonsense can come from him.

The only shock now would be to learn he was originally a woman....

Read the bios of Communist leaders. They always change their names at least once, many several times.

because the investigation of Jones was getting too close for comfort for Obama and his inner circle.

But the Van Jones story is not over. And we still don't know who hired this "obscure" official, as some on the left are now trying to refer to him.

Some of these controversies are currently being investigated by the new media. Blogger Trevor Loudon, who broke the story about Jones' communist background, thinks White House official Valerie Jarrett needs to be seriously scrutinized.

She appears to have had a family connection to Barack Obama's childhood mentor, Communist Party member Frank Marshall Davis.

[snip]

It's been reported that Van Jones is not his real name. He is really Anthony Jones.

By the same token, Barack Obama was once Barry Soetoro. It's not exactly clear when his name was changed, and when or if it was reflected on official documents.

Wonder why Van Jones' jail time isn't mentioned in the article?

Pinging anyway...

Vet Jarrett and audit her finances for the past year and 6 years up to now.

Then Vet everyone she has recommended as a Czar.

Thanks pissant.
[snip] Meanwhile, representatives of various George Soros-funded organizations are coming to the defense of the identified communist. John Podesta, the President and CEO of the Center for American Progress Action Fund, hailed Jones as an "exceptional and inspired leader who has fought to bring economic and environmental justice to communities across our country." Justin Ruben of MoveOn.org said Jones had "worked tirelessly to bring jobs and environmental progress to some of the poorest communities in our nation. His dedication and leadership are exactly what we need more of in Washington. And his resignation is a loss to this Administration." Josh Silver of the Free Press calls Jones "one of our most visionary and principled young leaders." ...In his statement, Podesta said that Jones, whatever his real name and true identity, had "chosen to resign because he believed he was serving as a distraction to the President's agenda. I respect that decision." Podesta was co-chair of the Obama-Biden Transition project and employed Jones before he went to the White House CEQ... It is apparent that Jones was thrown "under the bus" because too many of Obama's close associates, including Jarrett, are implicated in his hiring. Jarrett had said that "we" had recruited Jones. Who is "we?" ...But the resignation has not resulted in any coherent explanation of how he was hired in the first place... [Jones'] Marxist rhetoric about a "complete revolution" was made to "Uprising Radio" in April of 2008 and brought to light by Breitbart TV. Going beyond "systems of exploitation and oppression is a process," Jones said, that will take us beyond "eco-capitalism." ...the Green Jobs and the New Economy Subcommittee of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works... chairman... is socialist Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, a booster of Jones! ...For his part, Sanders responded that Democrats should have stood by Jones. "To surrender to them is ridiculous, because they're not going to stop. They're just going to go after the next guy. We need to be standing up to them more vigorously and exposing their lies." He did not identify what "lies" he was talking about. The fact is that Jones was nailed by his own associations and statements... Josh Silver of the Soros-funded Free Press says that "progressives" have a responsibility to "defend the public servants and innocent people who are being attacked..." Their idea of "innocent" is someone who openly associated himself with an international movement that has taken the lives of more than 100 million truly innocent people. International communism is still the biggest "death panel" the world has ever known. [end]
G'night all.

This regime is stock full of folks like this.Van Jones’ grandfather was president of Lane college in Jackson TN. A historically black college that is no more than a lousy high school. He is cut from the same cloth as Jerimiah Wright. It’s all about jailhouse muslims, seperatism and socialism. Jones is a product of the war on poverty
