Van Jones Scandal Threatens Obama Presidency (Accuracy In Media report)
Accuracy In Media ^ | Sep. 5, 2009 | Cliff Kincaid

Posted on 09/05/2009 9:28:17 PM PDT by Travis McGee

Reporting from near the home turf of embattled Green Jobs Czar Van Jones, Joe Garofoli of the San Francisco Chronicle says it's clearly a bad sign when White House flak Robert Gibbs is asked if Jones still enjoys the confidence of the President and merely replies that Jones "continues to work in this administration." But the White House has to know that, if Jones goes, the questions won't end. Who appointed him? Who looked into his background? Who knew what and when? Gibbs knows that the Jones controversy undermines confidence in the President, who bears ultimate responsibility for the appointment. Gibbs also has to know that, if Jones' background can sink Jones, the President himself is in trouble. Obama has decades of friendly associations with communists and terrorists, ranging from Communist Party USA member Frank Marshall Davis in his youth in Hawaii to communist terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn in Chicago when he was doing community organizing and running for political office. By comparison to Obama, when it comes to nefarious connections, Jones is a piker. Curiously, it's not Jones' communist background which has proven to be the most controversial. Rather, it's his two apologies in a week for statements calling Republicans "assholes" and having signed a 9/11 truth statement blaming the terrorist attacks on U.S. officials. It's the communism, stupid. As Professor Paul Kengor points out, "We now know that even the most authoritative sources, such as the seminal Harvard University Press work, The Black Book of Communism, were conservative when estimating only 100 million deaths at the hands of communist governments. The latest research, for instance, claims that Mao Zedong alone was responsible for the deaths of at least 60-70 million in China, and Joseph Stalin alone may well have killed 60 million in the USSR-

Not embattled anymore. He is, like so many, unemployed.

More and more Americans are learning that any confidence they had in president Obama was massively misplaced.

Van Jones organized the boycott against Beck. Beck is still on the air, but Jones is gone. Beck 1 - Obama 0

The Russians thought that having one Czar was too much, and it brought on a revolution. Obama has "30 Czars" remaining!

Gibbs is an idiot he knows nothing that is going on they don't tell him..Just like Uncle Joe Biden they keep both of the idiots in the dark..Gibbs is like the rest of the fools everything is Bushes fault if you don't know the answer..

Now we need to get rid of the scum that is going after the CIA I wish they would give us some dirt on them..They are all just trying to keep our minds off the Health Care bill so they pull all this crap..We are not like them we have brains and can handle more than one thing at a time and we sure can handle those idiots..
