Lesson for Van Jones: Don't get too uppity (Give it a rest)
Kansas City Star ^ | Yael T. Abouhalkah

Posted on 09/07/2009 11:03:36 AM PDT by big black dog

...Of course, for Beck and the rest of the white-America crowd, Jones got a little too uppity, especially when a group co-founded by Jones went after Beck and got some advertisers to pull out of supporting his show.

Yup, it was Whitey's fault.

Good luck with that.

Ooooh. Sorry, Yael. I was gonna read your op piece, but then realized by the time I clicked through your 15 seconds would be up?

Yeah. No, you only get seconds. Now hurry back and write about street lights.

Yael T. Abouhalkah is stoopid and uppity. Keep it up, and I'll call Abouhalkah racist too.

By all means flog racism every time.

People are all sick of it.

It’s the last excuse of losers.

Mr. Abullakahkah,

Your attempt to villify people for shining the light of truth on Van Jones' communistic leanings is a prime example of why mainstream media, especially the print media, is spinning down with it's last flush.

It was - at best - a cheesy attempt to invoke race into a political matter. Communism has no color and Jones has admitted to his sympathies toward communism.

You obviously have sympathetic leanings toward Jones, and Mama always said, "birds of a feather, flock together".

You don't like Glenn Beck - good enough...he probably wouldn't like you either. But with his viewership in the millions and your readership probably under 300, I wouldn't get too "uppity" about your wannabe role in his demise.

If you want to pander to the commie crowd currently occupying the White House, just call your messiah and maybe you can become a czar too. Maybe he needs a "Czar of bull$hi+ pandering"...that would be you.

You're truly, White America

Go on, Democrats. Keep on playing the race card.

You shot your wad with the “stupidly” comment.

No one believes you any more.

Oh please the man is on tape on youtube admitting that he is a communist. That is the reason why he stepped down, not any imaginary things it seems some balcks can dream up rather than taking responsiblity for their own choices.

The lesson for Van Jones is that if you spout hate, do it in private. Otherwise you have no political career. Thank God Van Jones, the hater, wasn’t smart enough to do that.

Agreed. But moron’s morons are what we have for news correspondents these days. It’s apparently a job requirement.
