they really did not seam to know that there was so much more to it then calling repubs A** holes

That's because to most DUers and KOSers, the statements made by Jones were not inflammatory; they were inspirational.

real story is how he was anointed CZAR....Odumbo’s close friendship with another radical. It's better to dump him, rather than explain his relationship with him....now it will all go away.....they think

“On the eve of historic fights for health care and clean energy, opponents of reform have mounted a vicious smear campaign against me,” Jones said in his resignation statement. “They are using lies and distortions to distract and divide.”


His own words are “lies and distortions?”

Candidates’ stances on gun issues emerge
The Sacramento Bee - Wednesday, September 3, 2003
Author: Herbert A. Sample ; Bee Staff Writer

EXCERPT

One of the most progressive candidates in the race, independent Arianna Huffington , also backs further gun restrictions.

“People with power need to use that power responsibly and accountably,” said a spokesman, Van Jones . “Picking up a gun gives you a whole lot of power in that moment. We need to make sure that people with access to that power have been properly vetted, have proper training and can be held accountable for their actions.”

My research (which was done on a crummy 56K dial up line so it is NOT comprehensive) discovered several things.

First, most of the state-run media is covering the Jones story.

Second, none have the story as the lead.

Third, most of them have relegated this story to their blog section. Gee, I wonder why not.

The NYT piece is especially interesting (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/06/us/politics/06vanjones.html?_r=1&hp). They’ve got links scattered through the story, but none point to their previous reporting on this.

The communist took the communist down. His brain, his mouth, his deeds, his alliances.

Glen Beck only reported.

I worry for Glen Beck....he’s a target, but make no mistake, if there were nothing to report, nothing would have been reported.

Some words of advice for Glenn...

Redouble your security.
Put a 24 hour watch on your cars.
Don't ride in small airplanes.
Change your routes and times to work every day.
Don't arrive by the same entrance.
Keep your wife and kids on the move.
Don't sleep in the same place every night.
Redouble your security.

Glenn is now the titular head of our party. He was fighting while Limbaugh was dieting and hannity was selling speeches. Savage was good on this Communist outing but Beck was the leader. He must now be moved to the prime time on Fox and let the blow hard see how he can do at 4 pm time slot. Yes this was all Mr. Beck . Bill Kristol on Fox Wallace credited some obscure blogger no one ever read or even heard of. Beck was on this for MONTHS and Krisol sees party leadership being ripped out of the liberal old Rockefeller wing that stuck McAmnesty in the nomination and lead this party to annhialating defeat. Thanks Mr. Beck. Tell us what is next!!

Thank you GLENN BECK!

Unfortunately, now HE will be the target. We all need to watch his back.

Trust me, these people are the slimiest of the slime.

And they will no doubt lie about what Van Jones is all about, too.

Will we hear the same theme that Van Jones and his boss is a quitter like we heard about Sara Palin?

YES, that was my thought, too.

Please let us not waste anymore keystrokes on this loser. Chuckles handles criticism about as well as Van Jones.
