Van Jones, about 2 minutes into this interview discusses then laughs about how Nancy Pelosi helped sneek legistlation into bills for him. I was a little shocked...

Hit the “report abuse” response button, tell the moderator what you want the title changed to

Yeah, it’s all about the 125 million. Just a drop in the bucket. But if it’s going to work, it has to be profitable and stand alone in the economy of the real world.

I can’t do that, yet. Can some nice FReeper please copy it? Usually my Real icon pops up and I can record it. Don’t know what’s happened.

Watched the clip. I am disgusted about how lawmakers conceal projects in legislation and then it gets passed and signed without being read. Now if I didn’t know anything about Van Jones as a communist ex-con, I would watch this clip and admire this good-looking, well-spoken black man who doesn’t need a tele-prompter to speak and think well of him cause he cares about poor people and cleaning up the environment. But, I know that global warming is a hoax, this is just another re-distribution of wealth scheme, and he is hiding his true anti-capitalistic beliefs.

More “green jobs” global warming nonsense. That’s how they cloak their redistribution of wealth...take it from us, pay themselves and their friends, tell the American people that they are doing something wonderful....

Did you see, approx 2 minutes into the interview they were laughing about sneaking legitlation into bills via Nancy Pelosi? If you didn’t get that far, you might give it a listen.

Whoever left the comment added a handy link that takes you right to that part of the interview. Van and the interviewer got lots of giggles from it, said Bush signed it but don’t know if he knew what he was signing.

I guess it’s funny when it’s our money! It boggles my mind how open they are about this. I guess they don’t have to worry about prosecution, so why not?

KIRO TV Sports Anchorman Tony Ventrella sounded like a infomercial salesman rather than a news reporter. Like many infomercials, you wait forever to find out the cost. In this fluff piece, you never find out how much the cost. So I did some digging. The High Point Family Center with its LEED “Gold” certification is described here:

The solar panels needed for Van Jones project in Seattle, will cost $250,000. Much of the money will be raised from donations. However, this High Point Family Center project costs $13 million. Did this money get snuck into legislation by Pelosi?
