WASHINGTON - An environmental adviser for President Barack Obama, Van Jones, has resigned amid controversy over past inflammatory statements, the White House said early Sunday.

Van Jones, an administration official specializing in environmentally friendly "green jobs," has been linked to efforts suggesting a government role in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and to derogatory comments about Republicans.........."

Hell ,why not Holder and Emmanuel.

He claimed not to but in fact Charles has been attacking Jones' critics relentlessly and seeking to rebut specific criticisms of Jones as well.
Typical leftist anti-anti-communism. It's the old "I'm no communist but it is McCarthy/Nixon/Chambers who are the real threat to our freedom" line.

You can say that again. Here is his threat to his boggers from tonight's thread:

'Anyone who's tempted to gloat at me over this, despite the fact that I've said very clearly Van Jones shouldn't have been in that position, don't waste your time. Take it somewhere else. Post that garbage here and it will be the last comment you post at LGF.'

Looks like Charles is really getting an inflated opinion of himself.

Next its Valerie Jarrett

[mojitojoe]

Twenty two years ago Barack Obama was a Chicago Alinskyite “community organiser”. After hooking up with the Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism, Democratic Socialists of America, former ‘60s Maoists, Weather Underground supporters and Demos he managed to land a job in the White House.

Great news to wake up to! I really thought Obama was going to pull it off and this guy would get to stay.

Weekends are always great. Obama thinks that weekends are the time to do things that he doesn’t want anybody to notice. Idiot that he is, he clearly doesn’t realize that the real America never sleeps; the media may be home snoring in their expensive beds (not that they planned to report it anyway), but Americans are watching.
