Van Jones a ticking time bomb for Obama

By mid-Friday, it was clear that the days of green jobs czar Van Jones are numbered in the Obama administration. Forget radio shock jock Glenn Beck, who's trying to get Jones fired. Even White House spokesman Robert Gibbs offered only lukewarm enthusiasm for keeping Jones.

On Friday Gibbs said, "He continues to work in the administration..."

Oh, and Gibbs added that Obama does not agree with Jones' signing of a petition to investigate possible federal involvement in 9/11.

No kidding...

“I suppose Obama doesn’t agree with Jones’ signing of that petition in the same way he wasn’t in Jeremiah Wright’s church for some 20 years.”

Ya, or the same way he doesn’t agree with holder trying the CIA???

This wuss is putty in the hands of all that is evil.

[WhistlingPastTheGraveyard]

Forget radio shock jock Glenn Beck

1) He's not a "shock jock".
2) Forget nothing. Beck did this.

[FlingWingFlyer]

‘RAT apologist, Bob Beckel said this morning that the red “Green Czar” (Ho! Ho! Ho!) will be gone by Monday morning.

[omega4179]

One at a time.

[Eric Roelfsema]

I will take the over on this bet.

I think he will resign on Tuesday. The day Obama has his school speech and to make sure the news does not report on any part of the birth certificate hearing going on in Santa Ana, CA on Tuesday.

[sport]

Denial is a terrible affikiction and often fatal to the practioner.

[Jet Jaguar]

He knows who he is hiring. That’s why this guy is a czar and not the secretary of state. No senate hearings.

[wrench]

I suspect zero will use his child indoctrination sermon on Tues to twist and change the meaning of what happened on 9/11. The timing is too suspect.

[Sparko]

Obama needs to have Van Jones hang around him like bacteria around Typhoid Mary.

It’s a good thing. It will keep on giving.

[Starboard]

Obama’s ratings are crashing now (health care debacle, rising unemployment, balooning debt, etc.) so he may be forced to jettison Jones sooner rather than later. I’d be surprised if Jones still around come Monday.

[smedley64]

Van Jones sounds almost as retarded as his messiah. What a clusterfxxx of an administration. Oh, and thanks for healing the racial divide in this nation, Obama. Great job with that.

I don't know what the breaking point is, but this commie POS and his comrades are trying to find out, come hell or high water. Once he opens up Pandora's box, it's going to be impossible for him to close it again. These arrogant fools are dangerous simpletons.

Will BO throw Van under the bus?

STAND BY YOUR VAN
Tune: "Stand By Your Man" Original

Sometimes it's hard to be Obama
Backin' all the czars at your command
You'll have commies
PR tsunamis
Wipin' out your castles in the sand

But if you love him you won't dump him
Even though he's messin' up your plan
And if they throw stones
Oh, don't let go Jones
'Cause after all he's still your Van

Stand by your Van
Give him your imprimatur
Don't be a wimp about it
When whites attack your brother

Stand by your Van
And show Glenn Beck you back him
Keep backin' Jones--oh, yes you can!
Stand by your Van!

ME AND MR. JONES
Tune: "Me and Mrs. Jones" Original

Me and Mr. Jones
I took a green commie on
They all say that it's wrong
But I'm much too strong
To let him go now

We meet every day at the bust of Che
6:30, I know, I know he'll be there
Raising fists, making all kinds of lists
While we read a page of Mao Zedong

Me and Mr.--Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones
I took a green commie on
They all say that it's wrong
But I'm much too strong
To let him go now

I gotta be extra careful
That he won't give our secrets away
'Cause he won't postpone revolution
But me, I need till May

Me and Mr.--Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones
They want my green commie gone
They all say that it's wrong
Well, it won't be long
I'll let him go now

Well, it's time for me to relieve him
It hurts so much to pull the bus outside
Now I'll throw him under, and he'll resign
But tomorrow we'll tweet, the same plans, the same time

Me and Mr.--Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones
I took a green commie on
I gotta be extra careful
I can't afford to give our secrets away

I wanna meet and talk with Van
With the same plans, the same old Che, the same time
And we're gonna raise fists like we used to
We're gonna talk it over, talk it over

We know, they know, and you know and I know that it was wrong
But I'm hangin' strong
I gotta let 'em know now
That I kept a green commie on, a green commie on . . .

[GovernmentShrinker]

I really don’t think he does. It doesn’t do anything to advance Obama’s reputation or power to have to fire people he’s hired after their outrageous past behavior and comments come to light.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Amen.

[Ditter]

You must not have been watching Glen Beck. he had a video of a woman who is nObamas closest adviser and she is on video saying “we have been watching Van Jones since he was a Berkely and we are happy to have him in the WH”. they KNEW all about Jones and picked him for those reasons.

I fear that even if he is dumped nObama will replace him with someone equally as bad but with fewer videos for Beck to find.

[Candor7]

Van is about to be thrown undah the bus. The purge is just around the corner.

Obapurges! Bring them on. We predicted them as characteristic of fasscist evolution.

[Yardstick]

Forget radio shock jock Glenn Beck, who's trying to get Jones fired.

Yeah, as payback for Jones trying to get Beck fired. If I'm not mistaken, Jones was behind the Beck boycotts.

[ScottinVA]

“The Extreme Left Wing Radical Van JONES must GO immediately!”

I hope he stays for a while and day-to-day of revelations about Jones does a slow bleed on 0bama. The longer Jones stays on board, the better.

[yongin]

I’ll be contrarian and say Van Jones stays. The media is ignoring this story. If Republicans call for Jones’s resignation, the media will call them racists and trying to provide a distraction for healthcare reform. Then watch the GOP Congress fold like cheap suits. Notice that ever since Beck made those “racial” remarks about Obama, no GOP Congresscritter appeared on his show.
