Apparently, whitey is at the back of the bus when they start handing out the green jobs.
As for who Jones is, he gave CNN a brief look at his new office at the White House Council on Environmental Quality. On the walls hang pictures of his heroes, each Jones described with a different strength. Basketball legend Michael Jordan: dedication and commitment. Boxing legend Muhammad Ali: fighting spirit.
Finally, pointing to a picture above his desk, Jones' tone grew softer.
"This is Bobby Kennedy the day before he was killed. In Watts, talking to some of the poorest people in California. And look at him. I mean, he's just present," Jones said, his eyes focused on Kennedy's image.
"We want to bring green jobs to these kind of folks. We want to bring green jobs to people who don't have hope."

I wanted him to stay.
His “hatin on whitey” is THE main theme of the Obama Administration.

I think the WH is un-nerved by the links between communists Frank Davis, Valerie Jarret's father in law, Bill Ayers' father, the law firm Michelle, Valerie, and O worked for in Chicago and the radicals that went back to NYC when Bill Ayers and O were in school.
It seems not only this generation but the one before them were linked...and communists all.

Well, so much for the parody song I worked on for five hours and just finished at 3 a.m. our time about Van Jones.
At any rate,
