The Real Van Jones Scandal: Why Glenn Beck Is Right
The American Spectator ^ | September 4, 2009 | Jeffrey Lord

Posted on 09/04/2009 5:13:28 AM PDT by Scanian

As a former White House aide myself, there are two incidents that tell me Glenn Beck is right in asking his questions about Van Jones. Two incidents that ask an even more serious question than anything asked about Jones himself.

The question: What did the Obama White House know about Van Jones and when did they know it?

The traitor-in-chief, the most successful communist traitor mole in history, is guilty of hubris and overreach.

He should have kept his radical communist pals in the background, like he did with Ayers.

Of course Obama knew all about Van Jones - that's why he, and all these other people, are "Czars" and not members of the cabinet. They don't have to go through any kind of scrutiny.

Anyone that says the White House didn't know these things about Jones is saying that the White House vetting process is inept or non-existent - either way - the Obama administration comes off looking BAD.

I want to know how:
1. obama got innagruated with questions about his citizenship hadn’t been settled.
2. obama’s appointments are not vetted by anyone
3. Where the hell is the congressional hearings?
4. Did the FBI get iced out of the process?
5. obama and his staff are violating the Constitution and NO ONE is stopping him?
6. Is anyone watching our borders?
7. Is anyone watching out for terrorist attacks?
8. Why are obama’s records still sealed?

Which begs another question, “Who and what is already in the WH or will be in the near future whom the Secret Service would and should not allow in?” I think we already know of more than a few.

God bless Glen Beck for being strong enough to say what needs to be said. This president however is not so much a racist as he is a communist who is trying to overthrow the republic guaranteed by the constitution (Article 4, Section 4).

I have to believe that zero knew everything about Jones long before he made him his “green car . . . er, czar”!. We may not like Obama, but he is (slightly) smarter than a 5th grader and knows what he is doing with his staffing selections.

He got the guy he wanted to get. I just don’t think he planned on having to cover for Jones as much as he is because the guy doesn’t know when to stop flappin’ his lips.

But, then again, neither does zero!

“Being a race-baiting Communist is not considered a liability for the Obama administration.”

That is absolutely correct. If you watch the Van Jones speeches, the people in the audience cheer wildly when he spews his hatred. There are plenty of people in this country who want what Obama has to offer.

Obama is a ‘person of color’ and the media along with a lot of the republican party are afraid of being labeled a racist by probing or asking questions that might ‘fan’ or create a nationwide racial incident.

Anything’s possible but I refuse to allow myself to be that negative early in the morning!

Vetted? There is no such thing as vetting this administration. Since the evil doers managed to get Hussein in, the vetting process is out the window as it seems Hussein has the first and last say. America was terminal when the GOP played into their hands by running the likes of McRAT. Remember, he’s the one who said we didn’t have to be afraid of Hussein. The minute he said that, it confirmed the suspicions I’d had for about a year.

Of course he knew.

He probably views Jones as a sort of commie kid brother whom he can bring along and groom as a successor.

The ‘Bama more likely considered Jones radicalism to be qualifications rather than drawbacks. This president is so arrogant that he thinks his charisma and the lock step support given to him by the MSM enables him to sell anything to the American people; even his own brand of facism.

It would have been less controversial if he had but how could he institute real, i.e. communist, change by using the usual Dhimmi hacks? He wanted the radical energy that he could on get from people like Jones.

The real question is “ Why with Obama tanking in the polls did they make such an idiotic decision to hire this guy ?”

Cuz, he don't care. He won. Time to implement his true agenda, that most of us in Freeper land already knew about before the election, but couldn't convince the morons that voted for him.
