Van Jones was recruited not in spite of his wacky beliefs but because of them

Apologies to Queen:

Another One Under the Bus

Oh! Let's go!
Greyhound One rolls down K street
Barry’s head hangin’ low
Rush done got the scoop on another old friend
Now that sucka has to go

No time for tears, no time for good byes,
Just jerk him up out of his seat!
Open the doorway, toss him out,
He screams to the sound of the beat

Yeah

Another one under the bus
Another one under the bus
And another one gone
And another one gone
Another one under bus
Hey
He's gonna ditch you too
Another one under the bus

Barry knew if he went far not all friends could come along
But hey its cool, he doesn’t miss them when they’re gone
He lets them make him look strong
And then moves on on his own "You’re my friend ‘til I’m worried
So you better not bring me any heat
Or out the doorway you ass will fly And you too will scream
To the sound of the beat"
Look out

Another one under the bus
Another one under the bus
And another one gone
And another one gone
Another one under bus
Hey He's gonna ditch you too
Another one under the bus

E-he! Alright!
Hey
Oh take it – Under the bus
Under the bus, hey
Hey Another one under the bus
Another one under the bus, ow
Another one under the bus, he he
Another one under the bus, hay yay ya ya ya
Ooh shout

How many friends have made Barry look bad
And he’s thrown them to the ground?
There’s Bill Richardson, Tom Daschle,
Louis Caldera, William Ayers,
Granny was thrown too, and you know Biden’s soon to follow
Yeah
Van Jones, Father Pfleger and
Reverend Wright have hit the street
Out of the doorway they all flew
As they screamed to the sound of the beat

Another one under the bus
Another one under the bus
And another one gone
And another one gone
Another one under bus, yeah
Hey, He's gonna ditch you too
Another one under the bus

This is One down, we have 999 to go, the way I see it.

Van Jones - - - ZOT!!!!

Hannity and Savage and Coulter and Levin and Ingram and... well, heck - there are more talk radio shows out there who deserve credit than I can cite. In addition, JimRob and JohnRob and ALL the wonderful folks in the New Media (including all of us who pay attention to it) deserve a portion of the credit for this battle victory.

Thank you to them all.

Drink one toast to celebrate this victory... But don’t forget there is a lot more left in this war.

“There are many others like that in the Obama Regime.”

While it may have been used before, I like the "ring" of the "Obama (or a/k/a Zer0) REGIME.

INDEED!

Pardon me for leaving out those fine folks.

Ah, Michele M. and Mark Levine belong in there too!

LOVE ALL OF THEM!

We need to send them thank you e-mails for exposing these freaking monsters for what they are.

Van Jones didn't really need to "believe" any of his cr*p. That was just a schtick to attract and "lead" ignorant people.

Van Jones' personal beliefs aside, DO WE EVEN NEED A GREEN CZAR ? What the heck are we creating these useless offices for ? To take up space ? To take more of our money to fund the bureaucracy ? Why the heck are we allowing this to even happen?

It's just what the Obamistas are calling these people. There are a number of rooms in the Old Executive Office building that need to be filled, so Obama is doing what every politician has always done ~ he's sticking bodies in there.

He could have had Jones around for a long time but he got called the "Green Czar" ~ mostly because he wrote a book ~ and then he stuck out.

This is why he had to undergo a "beat down" ~

Here's another problem ~ you have to have 5 years of federal government employment to qualify for a federal retirement annuity (outside of the Thrift Savings Plan). Congresscritters get their 5 years in quickly by counting each year in Congress as 2 years of regular government employment. Just get yourself drafted, then elected twice, and you're in ~ for life.

With these appointees it's a 1 year service for 1 year credit.

They're getting into the government a bit late ~ 9 months? That means they need all of the rest of Obama's term, plus another 21 months under someone else to qualify for the basic FERS annuity.

If they had their 2 years as a draftee out of the way, they'd just make it, but they don't.

The question arises about where they are going to go to get the extra time, and I think that's the answer to my question about why Obama can't attract talent.

The talented people know how to count and they see this guy as a One-Term President at best, and it could be shorter (Rezko holds the key to some jail time for him). What that means is that they would need another couple of years government service somewhere else to get a retirement annuity later on.

Frankly, the smart guys just don't see that happening knowing that if you are tainted by working for Obama's clown car regime you are not likely to get into any other government agency, not even a Congressional staff, down the road.

This is going to get worse isn't it.

Yep it was purely purposeful, they are pushing the limit on what they can get away with.

Its good in a way Obama was elected.
The idea of a Black president in now history. We, as a nation, tried giving him the benefit of the doubt and he has disappointed.
It’ll be a cold day in hell before the people of this country will elect another racist, inept, inexperienced community organizer.

Van Jones is a clone....”WRIGHT” ????? I believe the greatest impact on BHO was his alleged "father" Frank Marshall Davis

I read the Wikipedia version of his Marshall's and the radical aspects seemed whitewashed to me. Do you agree?
