…While the Gettin’s Good: Van Jones Resigns
NewsReal Blog ^ | September 5, 2009 | Ben Johnson

Posted on 09/06/2009 5:53:45 PM PDT by HorowitzianConservative

This just in: Van Jones has "resigned" his post as the Obama administration's Green Jobs Czar.

In his statement, released early this morning -- over the Labor Day weekend, curious timing that -- he made the dubious claim he had been "inundated with calls -- from across the political spectrum -- urging me to 'stay and fight.'" But black-hearted "opponents of reform have mounted a vicious smear campaign against me.[1] They are using lies and distortions to distract and divide."

Now, he finds himself under the bus, with Rev. Wright, Bill Ayers, and other Obama associates who embarrassed the president by leaving a paper trail of the extremism that unites them. But his departure can't bring closure. Jones is a racist, anti-American, self-described Communist with a soft-spot for cop-killer Mumia Abu Jamal and an unshakable notion that 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina were conspiracies. (Read my piece "Conspiracy Czar" in the weekend issue of FrontPage Magazine.) He once likened his rage to those who join guerrilla forces. He was so devoted to Messianic statism that he once said green jobs would "repair our souls." (I feel defiled even quoting that line on a Sunday.) Everyone who voted for Barack Obama has to ask himself how he managed to tap Jones as "czar" over an entire sector of the U.S. economy.

Proud to be an opponent of reform. Their reform is to change the country fascist/socialist. Always proud to stand against that.

Very serious business indeed.

I particularly want to get into his FBI/Secret Service clearance procedures.

That may take a F.O.I.A. request or an official Congressional Inquiry or letter from several Congressmen to the White House, backed up by internet pressure.

That is a WHOLE CAN OF WORMS right there.

The man is obviously a racist! He said right out loud “black hearted Opponents” Next thing you know he will be calling sponsors, who refuse to leave/boycott Glen Beck, niggardly cowards. Perhaps he can avoid saying that conservatives have been swallowed up in a “black hole.” Oh, the horror of his abusive, racist language!

Yes he bee gone from the Hip Hop MTV Posse in the Whitehouse but I am sure Wright or Ayres will find use for him.

Er, with all due respect, your Ebonics sucks. Half my family speaks it fluently, so I know what I’m talking about.

I can take a joke, but apparently I pushed a button on you. Your last sentence is especially demeaning, and really uncalled for.

That's no way to talk to a fellow patriot.

You’re the one thinking its cool to be fluent in that jungle pig-latin, not me. All I was doing was making fun of it.
