“Having Medea Benjamin, crack-pot Commie, vouch for you is not helpful.”

It’s helpful to us to hear all the commies in mourning.

Such a Joke!

If that is really what happened we need to deploy the rest of the fleet.

And “Good Commie Hunting Gentlemen”.

Pointing out that an African-American is a no good commie SOB, an affirmativeactiona$$h*le, and a guy who hates his native land, is definitely racist. BTW, he doan know nothin’ bout no honkey environment, neither.

Precisely.

John Kerry slandered American fighting men during war, he served our enemy in Hanoi (and Beijing, and Moscow).

Van Jones furthered the Maoist "It's Right to Revolt", "burn down America for Communism".

Truth sank their sampans. Boo. Hoo.

He has never been issued a Silver Star mit "V" device.

He received The Pour le Merité with Knights Cross and Diamonds, the Croix de Guerre avec Palme, The cloud Banner with Thousand Elephants, The VC, The Southern Cross, The Congressional Medal of Honor, and innumerable other richly deserved awards. The work he so heroically did was so top super, cross-your-heart, if-you're-lyin'-you're-dying secret, that Lt. Kerry hisself had to write up the after- action reports.

I know. I was with him when we swam naked up the Mekong on Christmas Eve on the verbal orders of soon-to-be President Nixon. He earned every one of those medals. Me? Well, Upon Lt. Kerry's kind recommendation, I received my water safety merit badge and was sworn to silence until he became the Senior Senator from MA.

And that mission, Christmas Eve 1968, on orders from President Nixon, that was seared, seared in his memory.

Now there's a ringing endorsement!

It would have been seared, seared I tell you, into my memory, but it is tough to sear anything while swimming up the Mekong into Cambodia, while towing several captured NAZI river guards.

OOPS! I wasn't supposed to,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

He swift boated himself

Very true. Every thing I have heard or read by Beck or any of the bloggers was something Jones wrote or was caught on video. No "unnamed sources or people in a position to know".

Jones was complaining of a smear campaign but he did himself in with his arrogance.
