Van Jones, president of the progressive organization Rebuild the Dream, joins The Last Word to discuss what Washington should be doing about jobs. Jones calls the US' deficit problem "phony" and made up.

"Hold on to your hats, we're going to have an October offensive to take back the American dream and rescue America's middle class," Jones told MSNBC's "The Last Word."

Jones warns of an "American Fall" like there was an Arab Spring.

Jones was President Obama's "green jobs czar" until he resigned in fall of 2009.

What happened was that they withered in the glare of daylight.

I thought about that as well when I posted and I agree that a lot of things didn't happen because they would have proven Glenn to be right. After all, Shirley Sherrod said the white house fired her because they were afraid the story would show up on Beck.

Van jones has george soros money behind him and followers who advocate violent revolution to overthrow the government. Doesn’t make sense because he has close ties to obama, but plug him into the top down/bottom up formula he fits the bottom up portion with baraq taking care of the top down portion.

Under normal conditions, he would be just another liberal moonbat, but there are way too many destructive things being done to our country by this admin and van jones is a very close associate of the guy in the white house.

Say, Van, would you mind explaining how the “middle class” (ie, the “bourgeoisie”) fit into your Marxist ideology?

Van Jones is just another Maoist. Revolution is not a dinner party.

“All political power comes from the barrel of a gun. The comunist pary must command all the guns, that way, no guns can ever be used to command the party.”

Frankly speaking, the Tea Party needs this ... nothing like something like this to re-energize things. Bring it on.

Yes, they seem to have a difficult time understanding the concept of independent thought. That so many of us have it, and reach intelligent conclusions without having to resort to talking points just boggles their wee little liberal minds.

Bring it on. In my time. That my children may have a hope to live in peace, and not in submission.

Agreed! These people scare the heck out of me.

He is still on the radio 3 hours a day. In fact, GB discussed Van Jones and that statement this morning. Also on 2 hours a night on GBTV.com. Fantastic program even more in depth than his FoxNews show was!

I thought the “Coffee Party” was supposed to be the big thing to counter-balance the Tea Party. I heard they actually had like 20 people show up to one of their events at Borders!

Van Jones is a moron. The “Spring” terminology came from the cold war, and he’s an idiot for using the term “fall”, that implies he’s leading a movement that will cause BAD things. Or maybe it’s simply a Freudian slip revealing his true intentions.

Didnt they have TWO rallies last year to “take back America”?

Remember those 'One Nation' groups? I had no idea there were so many lefty/commie groups.

Amen Brother!!

The Aiken County Tea Party held our monthly social meeting this morning at Golden Corral in Aiken, SC. This came up in the conversation; what can we do to re-energize ourselves? The 2010 election is over, the 2012 election is 13-14 months away. We're kinda in a dead zone. Someone suggested CWII. That would do it :)

Van Jones is also in a 1917’s type of mood and channeling Lenin's “Red October Revolution” that ushered in the age of Communism in the newly established USSR.

You can bet their banner will be the old standard red and black with a hint of the new green. The Bolsheviks in '17 waved the Bloody Shirt, but Van Jones can wave Michele Obamas Inauguration Night Dress
