In a venomous speech this weekend, notorious ex-Obama aid Van Jones went on a hate-filled rant against “cheap patriotism” and “libertarians,” calling out his free-market opponents as “anti-immigrant, bigots.”

Jones was introduced by actor and Obama activist Edward Norton, who likened the disgraced former Green Jobs Czar to the Dali Lama.

“When I was on a panel once with [Jones] and the Dali Lama it was a toss up as to who was wiser, Van or the Lama” Norton mused.

Jones began his speech by citing his six months of work in the White House before launching into a tirade against the “so-called Libertarians.”

In citing the Libertarian principle of economic liberty, Jones stated “They’ve taken their despicable ideology and used it a wrecking ball, that they have painted red, white and blue, to smash down every good thing in America.”

Jones continued, “They say they’re Patriots but they hate everybody in America who looks like us. They say they love America but they hate the people, the brown folk, the gays, the lesbians, the people with piercings, ya know ya’ll.”

Libertarian = Liberal that likes guns, but doesn't want to pay taxes. Beyond that, no difference.

So all of the following (from http://www.lp.org/platform) are liberal positions?

2.0 Economic Liberty [...]

I notice you left out...

I notice you left out an answer to my question.

[Alas Babylon!]

Hey Ed Norton:

Death to Smoochy! You misreable ham, you! You suck at acting, and you were about the worse Bruce Banner I ever saw. Bill Bixby was a Swarzenneggar compared to you!

Sorry, getting a couple issues right don't cover up the insanity in the rest of the platform.

There is a reason they can't get elected to anything.

[JustSayNoToNannies]

So you were wrong to claim, "Libertarian = Liberal that likes guns, but doesn't want to pay taxes. Beyond that, no difference"?

[Dead Corpse]

Here we see yet another example of a Socialist using projection as a tactic.

As a Professor once opined, "This isn't right. It's not even wrong..."

I agree. Liberals seem to do that A LOT

[Jack Burton007]

He’s black so he doesn’t need any. And you’re racist for even asking /s.

It will be blowing off continuously for the next 7 months.

This is just a prelude.
