Van Jones, the onetime Marxist whose controversial statements about Republicans and 9/11 have made him a distracting lightning rod as Barack Obama's environmental czar in recent days, resigned tonight.
Now, the Sunday morning political talk shows (guest listings here) will have something really hot to talk about.
On Wednesday, as The Ticket reported here, Jones was forced to apologize when a video surfaced of his February remarks in Berkeley, of all places, using a reference to a lower anatomical orifice to describe Republicans.
The next day Jones again had to apologize for having his signature on a petition to then N.Y. Attorney General Eliot Spitzer seeking an investigation into the 9/11 attacks as possibly an inside job planned by then-Pres. George W. Bush to soften opposition to a war in Iraq.
On another video here Jones was seen mocking Bush physically and rhetorically as "a crackhead" for his addiction to petroleum.

Now. Was it ARod, Eman, or zero, or a combo call to get this commie into the ring or perhaps they where told by someone else. My bet is zero initiated the suggestion to hire the American Republic hater.
Thanks for the phone numbers. Hopefully the pressure will become so great zero and his team will cave in yet again and have Holder (what a joke) investigate how much Jones skimmed off the top and miss allocated elsewhere.
Thanks Ernest!
Couldn’t agree more! We cannot stop now.
I also want to know how well Obama knew this commie scumbag.
I hear he will STILL be part of the administration. We need to follow him closely.we’re doing fine so far . Isolate then attack..NeXT !!!!!!!!!!!!
ho noted that Jones has not been active with the group in almost two years
oooooooooooooooooooooooohh almost 2 years wow Im inpressed.
He’s a Communist bastard and they all know it .
He's a fellow traveler...but I think Valerie Jarrett was a key contact.
I wouldn't doubt it. I don't consider this administration as "politics as usual". I have been taking their nonpolitical words at face value since before the first primaries, and IMO, this is an attempt to destroy the United States of old. I hope more and more people see this, but they are going to have to look, because even Fox news radio was spinning Jone''s resignation as being the result of him believing that there was American government involvement in 9/11, when the informed know that there was far, far more to Jone's resignation. People are going to have to look for the real truth about what is happening, for I fear it is not going to be made readily available to them...
