True, but do you think he would have said anything if Beck hadn't of been nailing Jones on this for the last two weeks?

"Our" representatives should have been out on front of this [Van Jones] as well as all of the other gross violations of this communist cabal, imo.

Better late than never is not cutting it anymore

Shoooo right. What strikes me as incredibly ironic at this point is that O may have an easy out—”discovering” that he was, in fact, born outside the U. S. may well be the least of his problems.

I posted earlier on another thread:

Probably the biggest drawback in a Republican take over of the House is it would put Boehner back in the Speaker’s chair— no lesson learned....

So, it looks like the Repub leadership needs to dip to #3 to get a response on this one. Let's get Van Jones out of the way so we can move on to the other radicals in the White House.....

Let the American people see just what kind of monster they have handed their country over to.

Agreed.

LOL. A perfect out.

See him packed at the White House with a UHaul, Michelle, the kids, middle of the night.

Off to Kenya.

Repeating what Pence said:

"The Constitution of the United States vests Congress with the responsibility to advise and consent in the appointment of high ranking officials by the president. To date, President Obama has appointed more than thirty individuals to ‘czar’ positions within his Administration without permitting the Congress or the American people to properly examine their backgrounds or public records."

Beck called Obama a racist.

VanJones called for Beck to lose his job.

Beck smoked out the commie.

VanJones is the one out of a job (real soon).

LMAO.

Hah, a Democrat - do the honorable thing and resign? That’ll be the day. Marion Barry, Cynthia McKinney, Teddy the Swimmer, his son Patches, etc, etc. They have no shame.

So....let me get this straight...

Jones is found to be a communist, marxist, anti-capitalist, anti-american RADICAL and not a peep....

But then they find he is a 9/11 truther and suddenly, they can’t have that?

I guess it shouldn’t matter the reason, as long as he’s sent packing. But my goodness if this admnistration doesn’t have their priorities all messed the heck up.

Our Representatives haven't been out in front on this because the House GOP has no leadership.
John Boehner is weak and pathetic, and as long as he remains the GOP 'leader' in the House, Republicans will remain the Minority party.

If Mike Pence was the Leader instead, things would look a lot different. We'd have a Loyal Opposition Party. The American people would once again feel that the Republican party was in touch with them.

Under John Boehner's 'leadership', the GOP has yet to reap any benefit from the public's loss of confidence in the Democrat party.
Republicans are still trusted even less than Democrats, because people like Boehner and McConnell do not speak for, or to, the American people. There is a lot of anger with the GOP still because they are still so clueless and out of touch that they don't even realize their own party needs a shake-up.

I don’t know. But, for all it’s worth, why doesn’t he just call on Obama to resign? After all, Obama hired Van Jones and Mark Lloyd and Cass Sunstein and Ezekiel Emmanuel and on, and on, and on! Why play games?

I personally think the Republicans are playing this perfectly. Stay out of the way, the train wreck is happening all by itself.

I think it is a necessary precondition for someone besides a congressman to point out these people in the administration. If Pence had brought this up he would have been hounded into oblivion by the press for playing destructive politics. Politics usually follows the press. Beck is a member of the press in a sense and since he has surfaced all the information a Republican congressman calling for that person to step down is legitimate. Not to say Pence isn’t going to catch hell anyway but he’s basing his call to resign on factual information coming from someone other than a member of the political class.

Perhaps, so far. I sure hope the stupid party doesn’t sit back while the grassroots do all the heavy lifting only to swoop in and feed us another McCain or Dole at the behest of the media again, but ya know what? I’ll predict just that.
