Did you know that Obama plans to spend upwards of $80 BILLION on so-called "green jobs" in the near future?! I sure didn't!! One more thing we have to put a stop to.

No mention of Jones' radicalism, communism or feelings that America "deserved" 9/11, of course!

Thanks to you, the federal government will now be spending about $80 billion on green economy initiatives without the guiding hand of one of the most knowledgeable experts in this field.

A devote communist has no clue on creating jobs. The Obama administration does not believe in using Capitalism to create jobs. The jobs that are created will cost 10 times more and be temporary in nature. Obama and his minions are buffoons.

The United States Congress gave Zer0 $800 billion in “walkin’ around money”, also known as “stimulus funds” which he can spend on whatever strikes his fancy with no further Congressional approval required.

Much of it has not yet been spent (illustrating exactly how “critical” it was to allocate this money), but a small amount has been, and a lot has gone to these stupid and economically unsound “green” ventures.

They’re trying to normalize the truther movement by moralizing the motive. Don’t let let them do it.

I am, of course, referring to Van Jones, who resigned this weekend from his position as adviser to the head of the White House's Council on Environmental Quality. Jones, once a civil rights activist, in recent years has become a leader in the green jobs movement, and as an administration official he was given the task of making sure that billions of stimulus dollars flowing to jobs in enviro-friendly fields (say, wind power) were being deployed in an effective manner.

Van Jones was best at
Getting the "Green Jobs" money
To the correct group.

The Chicago Way
Makes sure the graft money gets
In the right pocket.

David Corn didn’t used to be stupid enough to believe some communist organizer would have the ability to choose the “correct” businesses for green jobs, or efficiently direct the expenditure of 80 billion dollars toward that end.

We would be lucky if any single head of a corporation had such visionary insight. Such men are extremely rare. Usually, we count on 20-40 smart guys who are trained in business working for years running 20-40 companies, in the hopes that one of them will figure out the right thing to do, win the market, and the rest will follow.

But what’s really funny is how David Corn keeps putting “racist” in quotes, as if he doesn’t believe there is such a thing as a racist.

Jones was hoodwinked?

Then he’s too stupid to serve in a power capacity.

Jones apologist. Trying to make Jones into something he’s not, for the sake of Obama’s political agenda.
