The White House Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) Chair Nancy Sutley announced yesterday that Van Jones – an early green jobs visionary -- will start Monday as Special Advisor for Green Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation at CEQ:
Van Jones has been a strong voice for green jobs and we look forward to having him work with departments and agencies to advance the President’s agenda of creating 21st century jobs that improve energy efficiency and utilize renewable resources. Jones will also help to shape and advance the Administration’s energy and climate initiatives with a specific interest in improvements and opportunities for vulnerable communities
Jones is the founder of Green For All, an organization focused on creating green jobs in impoverished areas. He is also the co-founder of the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights and Color of Change, and was the author of the 2008 New York Times best-seller, The Green Collar Economy.
Watch Jones’ panel at the first official meeting of the Middle Class Task Force in Philadephia:
"Your goal has to be to get the greenest solutions to the poorest people," Jones told me. "That’s the only goal that’s morally compelling enough to generate enough energy to pull this transition off. The challenge is making this an everybody movement, so your main icons are Joe Six-Pack—Joe the Plumber—becoming Joe the Solar Guy, or that kid on the street corner putting down his handgun, picking up a caulk gun."
Also, the webmasters have things messed up at the whitehouse.gov web site. The "announced yesterday" link goes to a press release about the International Whaling Commission meeting in Rome.
I have no idea what comments Nancy Sutley made about Van Jones.
I believe Van Jones is involved with the web site http://www.greenforall.org/.
That organization looks like a cross between one of Obama's "community organizer" projects and "save the world" anti-capitalists posing as "environmentalists."

FROM BROWNSHIRTS TO GREENSHIRTS
VAN JONES HAS BEEN APPOINTED BY BARACK OBAMA TO BE HIS SPECIAL ADVISER ON GREEN JOBS. HE WILL BE OBAMAS GREEN CZAR. WHAT MOST PEOPLE DONT KNOW, HOWEVER, IS THAT VAN JONES HAS A BACKGROUND AS A STREET RADICAL. AFTER GROWING UP IN RURAL TENESSEE AND GETTING A LAW DEGREE FROM THE WHITE LIBERALS AT YALE, VAN JONES BEGAN HIS CAREER OF AGITATION IN SAN FRANCISCO. HE STARTED A GROUP CALLED POLICE WATCH, A GROUP WHICH HAS SYSTEMATICALLY HARASSED THE POLICE OF THE SAN FRANCISIO BAY AREA. USING VIDEO CAMERAS, PROTESTS, LAWSUITS, ETC., VAN JONES FOUGHT TO PREVENT THE POLICE FROM PROTECTING US AGAINST THE SCUM OF SOCIETY. HE HAD POLICEMEN FIRED, HES RUINED LIVES, AND HES MADE US ALL MORE VULNERABLE TO STREET GANGS.
BUT IN THE LAST FEW YEARS, IT SEEMS, VAN JONES HAS MOVED ON TO A DIFFERENT CON GAME THE ENVIRONMENT. HE STARTED SOMETHING CALLED THE GREEN COLLAR JOBS CAMPAIGN, WHICH TRIES, AS HE CLAIMS, TO CREATE GREEN PATHWAYS OUT OF POVERTY. IN OTHER WORDS, CONNING PEOPLE ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING HAS BECOME MORE PROFITABLE THAN HARRASSING THE POLICE.
AND NOW BARACK OBAMA HAS BROUGHT HIM ON AS PART OF THE TEAM. HIS BACKGROUND DOVETAILS PERFECTLY WITH OBAMAS PLANS. YOUVE HEARD OBAMA BEFORE TALKING ABOUT STARTING A CIVILIAN NATIONAL SECURITY FORCE SEPARATE FROM THE MILITARY. LISTEN TO HIS WORDS AS HE SPOKE ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL LAST YEAR.
CHILLING. BUT IVE TOLD YOU BEFORE THAT OBAMA IS GETTING READY TO ORGANIZE AN ARMY OF GREENSHIRTS. AND GIVEN VAN JONES BACKGROUND IN STREET AGITATION, HE SEEMS LIKE THE PERFECT PERSON TO DO IT.
THERE WAS ANOTHER MAN ONCE WHO ROSE TO POWER ON AN ARMY OF STREET THUGS. ADOLPH HITLER HAD A FRIEND NAMED ERNST ROHM WHO WAS THE HEAD OF AN ORGANIZATION CALLED THE S.A.. THE S.A. WAS A POLITICAL ARMY WHICH PROTECTED THE NAZI PARTY LEADERSHIP, BATTLED POLITICAL OPPONENTS, AND TERRORIZED THE JEWS. ERNST ROHM WAS AN AVOWED SOCIALIST. HE REJECTED CAPITALISM, PUSHED FOR THE NATIONALIZATION OF GERMAN INDUSTRY AND REDISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH. VAN JONES, IT SEEMS, IS WORKING ALONG THE SAME LINES.
THE ENVIRONMENT IS BEING USED BY OBAMA TO CONTROL THE U.S. POPULACE. THE BROWNSHIRTS HAVE BECOME THE GREENSHIRTS, LED BY VAN JONES AND HIS STREET AGITATORS. THEY SEEM TO BE ON THE VERGE OF DEPUTIZING AND ARMING AN ARMY OF GANGS WHO WILL THREATEN, INTIMIDATE, AND ARREST ANYONE WHO REFUSES TO GO ALONG WITH THE NEW GREEN AGRENDA
