Special Open Thread: Van Jones Resigns

  • Bookmark and Share

Breaking just moments ago: Obama's controversial "green jobs" czar Van Jones has resigned.

Click here to see our archive of stories on the media's coverage (or lack thereof) of the Jones controversy.

Feel free to use this as an open comment thread on the aftermath. Will conservatives be able to get more mileage out of this controversy by drawing attention to Obama's heavy use of so-called policy czars? Or is this just a short-term setback for the Obama administration?

Well

Krauthammer and others thought it would happen Tuesday.

 1 down 30+ to go. Glad he's gone but the people who put him there are just as culpable.

Saturday in the wee weed hours of the morning

Too bad BECK wasn't on FOX during the primaries

I checked twitter to see what Beck was saying

I guess he is sleeping isn't he East Coast? 

~lbcdawn Religion is about doing. Christianity is about done.

Beck is doing an excellent job of picking apart Obama

Beck was on Headline News two years and on radio since 2002 when his radio show went national. I guess America only discovered him on Fox News. But some of us followed him a few years before. Another clip is here.
And a piece on him.

Beck is doing an excellent job of picking apart the Obama administration and showing us what it really is. It angers the left, who should see that they themselves are supporting everything they claimed to be against once upon a time; when the white house guy had a R by his name instead of a D. 

America can see that both parties are corrupt. The left even more so.  But the so called R party is doing nothing to stop him, barring a few people. It is taking the talk radio shows, fox news, blogs and websites, and the america people protesting and going to townhalls to keep Obama from destroying the country for good.

 

He decided to sneak out

He decided to sneak out during the quiet of a long holiday weekend - that's the only reason Krauthammer was wrong.  In other words, slinking out without honor.  But, then again, this slimeball from a sea of puss never had any.

Great that he's gone, but we have hundreds more to go.  

And, again, where's the state-run media (NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, the NYT, WaPo, etc.)?  Attending propaganda conferences in Caracas, perhaps?

New Boss - Same as the Old Boss

Van Jones will be replaced by someone else who thinks the same way he does.


Yes

This is mostly symbolic. The idealogy will be the same but at least now they know they don't get to flaunt it in our faces and get away with it.

 Additionally this sends a strong message to the people that our voices CAN be heard. Something like this steamrolls. Now that people have seen tangible results they will press even harder.

Exactly

much like all the rest of Obamas *changes* we the people are speaking. 

~lbcdawn Religion is about doing. Christianity is about done.

Now THIS is "change"

Now THIS is "change" !!

Yes we can!!   LOL

Question is: Will Obama's

Question is: Will Obama's poll numbers go up or down as a result? The MSM coverage of the resignation will be directly tied to the perceived poll numbers. Numbers go down -- MSM silent. Numbers go up -- lots of MSM coverage.

Not just that

It sends an even bigger message to Obama; we're watching.

And this ain't Whack-A-Mole.

Fire in the hole.......

Doesn't matter, as Jones will still be in Blackberry contact...

...with Obama for the duration.

How long is THAT BlackBerry's contact list

I will make a guess that the entire Chicago political machine, all branches of the ACORN tree, and Arriana too, are all in there.

Obama demanded to keep HIS BlackBerry over the initial objection of Treas (Secret Service). Then some ABC outfit exchanged it for a more "secure" unit.

I wouldn't be surprized if he had Mumia Abul Jamar's guards' ph number, and Chris Matthews' favorite brand of leg tingler.

One Down, 335+100+32+18+2 to go.

DeskPilot,

I wonder if this country will survive long enough for us to find out just exactly what Obama's communications on his Blackberry actually were.

Somehow I doubt it.

-Dave

Are 0's Blackberry messages

Are 0's Blackberry messages being preserved like other WH communications? 

Let's not even joke . . .

Let's not even joke . . .

By federal law, they are

By federal law, they are required to be preserved.  Whether Uhbama & Co. are obeying that law is the question. 

"Beauty is only skin deep, but liberal's to the bone." - me

Don't let up

There's more where he came from.

Fight on.

How refreshing!

Doing happy non-dance. 

~lbcdawn Religion is about doing. Christianity is about done.

And another one bites the

And another one bites the bus.

Obamatrons are all expendable in the service of their leader.  There are more where Jones came from.  By now, Obama has hired / appointed a whole warehouse full of these Marxist loons to high offices.

Then let's not rest, who's next?

And we'll find every one of them and expose them for what they are.

The FCC Adviser

Mark Lloyd should be the next to go.  Rahm is probably drawing up his orders to double down on going after Glenn Beck and the rest of those brave media people shining the light on the corrupt Obama administration and his czars.  

As long as he is useful

He will still be around, in communication. We must not let our vigilance subside for one moment, our country and our way of life is at stake. This is a smoke screen, watch closely, the progressive extremists have been building up to this for years I'm sure that set backs are anticipated. Van Jones is still as active and probably even more dangerous now that he can operate in the background and still have "Gods" ear.

Y'all can celebrate this all you want...

...but Van Jones isn't going anywhere.

He will just be relegated to an even further off the radar "unofficial" position.

Thus the coup continues, totally uninterrupted.

-Dave

Even when the government tries to kiss you, it is just a prelude to a good screwing. -Neal Boortz 

Exactly, this is how they

Exactly, this is how they operate...ah you caught me, so I will change the language a little but end up with the same results.

And the thing we have to drum is what did Obama know and approve...and if he claims he didn't know, drum his incompetence and demand he prove that he isn't Van Jone's twin.

CV,

As far as I am concerned, they are two peas in a pod.

I am not buying even for a second that they didn't "vet" this goober well enough.

They knew exactly what they were getting because that was exactly what they were looking for-someone they could rely on to help Obama turn us into Cuba.

-Dave

Even when the government tries to kiss you, it is just a prelude to a good screwing. -Neal Boortz 

Yep.  At this point,

Yep.  At this point, nobody's going to believe the old "That's not the Van Jones I knew" line.

I think the Messiah is starting to understand he is playing in the big leagues!

MM... We will know how

MM...

We will know how serious he is taking this come the big speech before congress eh?

Betcha anything it is the same TOTUS do as I say crap though.

What is really amazing........

is the fact that Zero thought he could pull this, and no one would notice it!!!  What arrogance!!! 

"A nation can suffer it's fool's, but cannot survive the traitor"

Cicero

America is under attack, the people are starting to stand up

America is under attack by Obama. Anybody who knew anything about him could see this.  The fact is Zero thought he could do all his things and easily manipulate and convince the American people it was good for them. But the American people are brighter than he thinks.

However, he is committed to his ideology and just will not give up which is alarming. So he must lose the next presidential election. I think, Van Jones gone is a great thing. But, it is just the start. Obama and his minions don't want to be reasonable. They want radical agenda at all costs.

It is is good to see that people, like Glenn Beck and all the tea party protestors. are making a difference.

BEG,

They were counting on the SCM to give this clown a pass by looking the other way, which they were willing to do.

What they didn't count on were that more and more Americans are watching Beck, Hannity, and listening to Rush these days.

What bothers me about this is that there are a whole bunch of others just like Jones hanging around Obama, and the repubs aren't saying anything. I only know of two who finally said anything about Jones at all.

-Dave

Even when the government tries to kiss you, it is just a prelude to a good screwing. -Neal Boortz 

Dave.....absolutely right.....

we knocked off one commisar.....got 42 more to go. I have a feeling Beck and the rest will be on fire this week!!!  The more Olberdork, and the rest try to demonize them, they just grow their audience, and more people become informed! 

"A nation can suffer it's fool's, but cannot survive the traitor"

Now

Valerie Jarrett -Senior Advisor and Assistant to the President for Intergovernmental Affairs and Public Engagement (whew!)- has some splainin' to do.

Van Jones? Never heard of him.

/ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, NYT, ....

What was new to Obama about Van Jones' history?

To President Obama,

It seems that you will announce soon that he has resigned, or that you have fired him, or that you are going to keep him in your administration.

Whatever you do, please tell me, what is new to you about this recent information about Van Jones? If you already knew about these aspects of his history, then why should you now fire him or ask him to resign?

If your actions are based on recent information, new to you, then what's new?

Andrew_M_Garland

I heard this over at

I heard this over at TeamSarah.org  LOL!

 

Meanwhile, Obama will replace him with another Garden Variety idiot.

Free, it won't matter. He'll just punch up the next # in his....

...Commies-R-us Blackberry phone list and continue on, totally uninhibited.

-Dave

Even when the government tries to kiss you, it is just a prelude to a good screwing. -Neal Boortz 

Good News!

It is good to know that the pressure can work. But, this is very critical information regarding a dangerous person that was virtually ignored by the state-run media. Now that Jones is gone, with no coverage, it's like he was never there anyway. Either that or his resignation will be treated as a sacrifice to the messiah, and they'll chalk it up to him being another victim of blatant racism by conservatives. What is mind boggling too is that none of them even blinks an eye when this clown spews that crap about Americans and our country.

Whatever the right hand is

Whatever the right hand is doing, pay attention to the left.  Here are my thoughts, based on observations on how Obama works.

Van Jones is Obama.  But he has a record.  They knew that Van's history would catch up to him...and people would pay attention to Van Jones...when in reality the play is over there somewhere.  He's a distraction right now.

He was a good soldier, he played his part...he will get some post in Acorn, SEIU, or elsewhere in Soros empire, he's still in the game.

Until Obama actually leaves office, we must be vigilent.

We must demand Congress to

We must demand Congress to pass a law, no more czars...they must be vetted in the open through the Senate.

Yes

Down with the czars.  Restore the Executive Branch to the form specified by the Constitution.

 

The law is already there. 

The law is already there.  The "czars" are what are known as "executive appointments without statutory basis", and they are illegal.  Every new administration has its share of problems with illegally creating new jobs at the executive level.  Typically, the experienced advisers on the staff raise a hand and say, "Wait--we can't do that without statutory basis," and the position is removed.

The problem with Uhbama is that his team is hell-bent on achieving his goals, which have nothing whatever to do with following the law, up to and including the Constitution. No one on his staff, nor in the press, nor in the Congressional majority, will raise that hand.

So far, I've only heard Congressman Mike Pence (R) raise a voice questioning the legality of the "czar" appointments, at least in terms of government officials.

(BTW, the name "czar" has nothing to do with the type of appointment or its legality.  The fact that we have called, for example, the "drug czar" by that name in the past is totally irrelevant.)

"Beauty is only skin deep, but liberal's to the bone." - me

Short term or long term setback

I'll take either at this point. Anything that blunts his drive to socialize the land. 

"If the man, with the power, can't keep it under control...some heads are gonna roll." -Judas Priest

We are currently under a Marxist blitzkrieg...

Don't think for a minute that the participants haven't made allowances for those who just might "fall short" and be removed.

Know that there are replacements in place for every position.

This is not a defeat for the Obamanistas, just a minor set-back.

-Dave

Even when the government tries to kiss you, it is just a prelude to a good screwing. -Neal Boortz 

This will be a hollow

This will be a hollow victory if Jone's communist past and anti-white statements are not covered in the aftermath by the MSM. If the offenses he made are contained to the troofer stuff and calling the GOP names the Dems can claim he was railroaded for quibbling reasons.

I did have one chilling thought. Valerie Jarrett introduced him at a speech and said that they thought greatly of him at the WH. Could it have been that they were grooming him to be Obama II in 2016?

Speaking of Valerie Jarrett, she should be the next one under the microscope. Her father-in-law (Vernon Jarrett) was a communist who an associate of Frank Marshall Davis, Obama's childhood communist mentor in Hawaii.

I wonder how many more

I wonder how many more commies will need to be unearthed around Obama before people finally wake up and realize what it is about Obama that many of us here have known for over two years now.

-Dave

Even when the government tries to kiss you, it is just a prelude to a good screwing. -Neal Boortz 

Was he a Czar of Black Supremacy?

Look... Van Jones IS a black supremacist....

THERE I SAID IT !!!

No matter how you want to dismiss it, just realize it.  His resignation will be reported by the Obie "in the pocket" media as an evil victory by Conservatives who really just repeated Van Jones own words.  Damn...his freakin' hate speeches are caught on video no less...but Conservatives will no doubt be the evil hangmen that lynched this 'good, upstanding' black man.

Czar Van Jones of the many czars we have now (and for what reason?)  espouses the black panther philosophy, has a distinct hatred for anything related to George Bush and that means Republicans, and has a background in sypathziing with communists.  Just like his president, he has a core hated for honoring this country's values that have stood strong for over 200 years that both black and white citizens in this country believe in.

Remember his own words and attribute them to his god: OBAMA

Personally, I think the wrong 'brotha' is gone.

Mark Levin, is that you? 

Mark Levin, is that you?  :)

This is a good night, regardless of the skepticism here.

Does Dearleader think we are not aware that these minions of his, do nothing that does not clear White House office in advance?

I was wondering how long...

it would take for Jones to bite the dust...Of course, this happens on Labor Day weekend, when no one is paying attention to the news, and I'm sure Obama and Co., are hoping that by Tuesday, when everyone has returned to work and school, and has plugged back into the news, this story will be old news...Fat chance...This latest PR disaster for "O" just highlights the problems concerning his numerous and often questionable  "czar" appointments.

Can't wait to hear how 'ol Gibby will try to spin this at Tuesday's press gaggle...

Thanks AP

Words missing from this lengthy article about Van Jones resigning from the AP: Communist, socialist, marxist, STORM.

his ideology has not been swept

Just because he has now resigned from the official made up position that he was given, his ideology has not been swept from the white house. There are many more and many worse wandering the halls and bowels of command. 

He fits in perfectly with this administration

I disagree with Mike Pence when he says

His extremist views and coarse rhetoric have no place in this administration..

Unfortunately, his views and rhetoric fit perfecty in this administration.  The correct statement would be

His extremist views and coarse rhetoric should have no place in this administration.

Congratulations Glenn Beck

He pushed to get this information out front to America all the while a complicit main stream media did everything in their small liberal minds to keep the facts from us about who Van Jones is. Do not for a minute think he is gone, he is a self proclaimed communist, by the comments of Obama's buddy Ms Jarret they followed his so called career from CA to Washington, DC. They are all involved, they believe the same things, have the same plans for us, contrary to our Constitution and our Bill of Rights. These associations mean something, their actions show just how quickly they want to ram legislation through read or unread. 

It's time to ask the question, What did Obama know about Van Jones and when did he know it? The I know nothing game is becoming very old fast.

MSM wonders why they are losing their audience & advertisers

"while a complicit main stream media did everything in their small liberal minds to keep the facts from us about who Van Jones is." VinncyG Sept 6, 2009 - 02:16 ET

MSM wonders why they are losing their audience & advertisers.  Could it be that they are not on top of the news?  Fox beat them out on the news by weeks!  Could it be that the people must go to talk radio or Fox Cable News to get real news in a timely manner? Could it also be that Fox Cable News and the talk show hosts do not belittle the American populace?

 

 

Censor news of interest to many...

...then cry about your company's pending bankruptcy and wonder why. If the SRM reported everything they might go out of business slower.

Lame Duck

President Obama...you are going to be a lame duck in November 2010. You gave it a shot and your commie policies didn't work.

It is far better to be three hours early than one minute late.

Did anyone notice the timeline change

Did anyone notice the timeline change in the Chicago Tribune article?  They implied that Glenn Beck went after Van Jones AFTER Beck's advertisers left his show.  [Fox News Channel host Glenn Beck repeatedly denounced Jones after a group the adviser co-founded, ColorofChange.org, led an advertising boycott against Beck's show to protest his claim that Obama is a racist.]

The timeline is the other way around.  GB exposed Van Jones for the Angry Racist (hates white people), Communist, Radical, domestic terrorist that he is BEFORE colorofchange.org went after GB's advertisers. 

Then again - it IS a newspaper from Chicago - so what else is to be expected!

I wonder if those advertisers who left his show realize that 1) they supported a hatefilled, radical, communist, truther, domestic terrorist over a loyal patriotic host  2) GB's show was top rated during the very week they had pulled their ads.  He jumped above other well established, popular hosts.  (talk about revenue loss)

Re Timeline

That timeline distortion is being presented in nearly every article there is on Jones, even on some not-so-liberal new and old media outlets. It's part liberal bias, part laziness.

A czar resigns and

A czar resigns and cbs/abc/nbc/WaPo/NYTimes/LATimes NEVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR even reported about it until the end.  Their readers/viewers must be saying "who is he and what did we miss".

Black Red Green Czar

"On the eve of historic fights for health
care and clean energy, opponents of reform have mounted a vicious smear
campaign against me," Jones said in his resignation statement. "They
are using lies and distortions to distract and divide." 

They are using his videos so who's lies?

Jones issued an apology on Thursday for his
past statements. When asked the next day whether Obama still had
confidence in him, White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said only
that Jones "continues to work in the administration." 

So what did he resign from? Besides being a American?

 Like the old lawyer joke: What do you call a bus full of lawyers at the bottom of a river? A good start. Now we can say what do you call a bus full of czars at the bottom of a river... We need a bigger bus..

“Less 1984 — More 1776"

Who appointed the Biz-Czar Jones.

I assume it was his immediate boss, Nancy Sutley, chairwoman of the White House Council on Environmental Quality.

Nancy Sutley, a former LA Deputy Mayor, was the first prominent lesbian to earn a senior role in the Democrat’s new administration.

Sutley supported Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton during the Democratic primary and was a member of her Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender steering committee.

Okay -- now I'm sure this lady has lots of on the record questionable statements, policies and agendas in her past.

Lots. Lets find them.

Check out a load of people who are part of the Obama administration, look at their resumes.

It is incredibly disturbing to read the background of these people. I can't find ONE who has worked in the private sector. EVER.

http://www.eenews.net/special_reports/transition/full_list

They have all gone from college into government sinecures. They have all lived of the public purse their whole lives. 

Government agencies. Universities, state agencies. It's actually unbelievable. They are all apparatchiks of the state and big governemnt.

This explains the crap hole.

"Ask not what you can do for your country; ask what you can do for your President..."

Jack, Obama doesn't need advisors with private enterprise...

...experience, as he fully intends to destroy every last vestige of private enterprise left in America.

The truly scary part is, he is not as far away from doing that as many people seem to think.

Wow! NO NETWORK COVERAGE!!!

Wow! NO NETWORK COVERAGE!!! Foxnews and a few internet sites singlehandedly brought down a Czar! (Opps I mean advisor.) Watch for network outrage. They were totally irrelevant.

Ryan - that's another big story about this

That's another big story about the Jones resignation.  The MSM wasn't able to control the situation and protect Jones and Obama from the fallout over Jones' beliefs.  If they get the feeling that they are losing control over what the American people know, the MSM will finally be realizing that they are becoming irrelevant in the overall scheme of things.

 

"I support the President but not his policies" - Blonde

God Bless Glenn Beck

Andrea Mitchell, Keith Olbermann, Chris Matthews - they must be livid.  Pray for Beck because the left is now going to turn every black in this country against him.

Good riddance

All I have to say is when are the rest of these Czars going to be called to the carpet. This prez thinks he can do, say and hiring anyone or anything. Every week I think that the week before was more outrageous and then the next week shows me more. He BO this isn't Chicago anymore, you actually have to be held accountable for your actions and now you're the President of the United States not some uninformed without any experience Senator that has to cow tow to his constituents.

 And the left said that cow boy politics was bad. They also said that going it alone was not good for the country. That's what this new president has been doing all along - going it along. Chicago politics makes Texax politics look like childs play. BUT GUESS WHAT? We will continue to uncover your corruption and the American people will vote you and your minions out!

January 20, 2013 - Nobama

This just proved the point that the term "green jobs" is...

...just the new codeword for political patronage and welfare.  Van Jones was just another "community organizer" who can't get a real job.

Hard Evidence! Proof That Obama's Hawaii and Chicago Linked

Not on Van Jones but this story is on Obama, Frank Marshall Davis and Vernon Jarrett (Valerie Jarrett's father-in-law) and how the same people in Chicago were/are responsible for the growth in the Chicago Communist and Black Nationalist movements .

----------------------------------------------------

It is now well established that Barack Obama was linked to the Hawaiian
Communist Party network through his boyhood/teenage mentor Frank Marshall Davis.

It is also well known that after moving to Chicago, Obama linked up with the local communist networks.

Manning Marable, a leader of the Communist Party offshoot Committees of Correspondence for Democracy&Socialism claims that Obama "understands
what socialism is. A lot of the people working with him are, indeed,
socialists with backgrounds in the Communist Party or as independent
Marxists. There are a lot of people like that in Chicago who have
worked with him for years..."

This leads to two key questions.

A Were the Hawaii and Chicago networks connected?

B Did Obama's connection to Frank Marshall Davis in any way influence his progress up the Chicago political ladder?

If the answer is yes to both, there are significant implications.

Sleazy Joe Romm

Soros funded Climate progress was celebrating a nasty appointment.  The envirionmental movement is  just a foul movement.  They applauded a hostile jerk appointment.  His leaving is even a setback because it shed light on the green agenda.

It was a racist attack on whites and conservatives.

Van Joans moans that whites were pushing pollution into poor black neighborhoods.

Tax and trade was reparation for slavery?

Van Jones Hammer and the MSM's Sickle

Soros funded Climate progress was celebrating a nasty appointment.

Amazingly, sleazy Joe not only celebrated a nasty appointment, but defended this piece of human waste even up until 2 days ago. Today poor Joe is in mourning. Absolutely shameful.

wow! didn't Van Jones

wow! didn't Van Jones "color of Change" go after Beck and thought he could get away with it, Beck did a great job exposing who this guy is.

but i think he was rearranged somewhere in the white house or will come back in a year, sort of like Samantha Powers.JAJT

Is Van Jones Really Out of the Loop?

That is the important thing, not his title.

If Obama says he is the boss he is still the boss.  Today people can run their offices and manage others from virtually anywhere  with a smartphone, computer and fax.

There are plenty of ways through organizations like ACORN that Jones could still get paid.

 

So he may have resigned from his official job but he is too well entrenched with Jarrett and in the system to be out of the loop.  You can bet on it.

 

 

No Ink for VJ

Never mind that the news release of this was in the lo-dark hours of a 3 day weekend originally designed by LABOR UNIONS, Never mind that it was not on a typical Friday news dump after 5:00.

What is MOST telling about the timing of this resignation release is that it won't see front page ink in national papers. Imaging the Sunday Editionof WaPo or NYT: OBAMA CZAR THROWS SELF UNDER BUS. A headline that could live for forever. No, no ink whatsoever. Sunday papers were already printed and in the distribution network. None print EXTRAs anymore. Labor day papers are nothing but pre-printed fluff, just waiting for the overtime paid pressmen to run on Sunday night, and Tuesday papers won't be much better.
This story is INTERNET and TeleProMpter (see: TOTUS) based only.

A complicit MSM sets the stage once again.

Most of America is completely unaware of Van Jones' racist, communist, ways because such was not reported on by MSM.

We will Barry you! - Russian prophecy

What's there to report, say

What's there to report, say the MSM? Czars aren't part of the Government; therefore, they don't exist, and certainly don't need to be reported on. Move on, they say. Nothing to see here.

Obama's upcoming Health Care speech

How will this affect Obama's health care speech next week? Will he mention this? I'll bet he will -- he'll use it to attack Republicans. That's his nature, and what he's done in the past. He still thinks his way is best, and he deparately wants to apease his base. It'll be interesting, to say the least.

Bring on the DEATH WAGONS,

Bring on the DEATH WAGONS, of course this aint China.

No Change

Just as Tom Daschle continues to run health care issues from outside the White House, public knowledge, Van Jones will be keeping in constant touch with his close friend, Valerie Jarrett, on issues he feels are important the White House propagandize to further influence and push through "their" agenda to fundamentally change the lanscape of America.

Jones' parting words probably were, "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.  So I'll be telecommuting to the White House from now on -- just like Daschle.  It's great for the "green" thing.  Have a great weekend everybody!  Talk to you Tuesday morning!"

We must stay vigilant

Van Jones will operate in the background, he is Gods trusted friend, he will not sever ties. Our next concern is the FCC Czar and his revolutionary talking points. The more Obama sees that we are wise to his shenanigans the more measured his approach, ramming things down our throats will be toned down. With that said, he will reach the point of knowing the game is over and could very well throw their entire plan into action against this country and create the chaos they so long want to see. We must be especially concerned that our voting rights stay intact and our right to choose remains unencumbered.

We should demand from the DOJ what background information was done on Van Jones and these other radical communists in this administration. This will also put Holder to the fire as well. We as usual can't expect the mainstream media to wake up they have their own agenda which doesn't include our right to know. 

notice the reasons he had to resign

None of the Democrats ever said he was wrong or he messed up. They believe the right wing conspiracy went after him. Money quote from the article:

Howard Dean, former head of the Democratic National Committee, told "Fox News Sunday" that he thought Jones "was brought down" and that his resignation was "a loss to the country."

How dare conservatives hold him to his own ideals.

Once again, it's perfectly fine for a convicted criminal and 9/11 truther to be in charge of spending tax dollars, as long as he's on our side.

John Dean said that all

On the Sunday morning shows - John Dean said that all Jones did was sign a piece of paper on a clipboard someone waved in front of him.

David Axelrod claimed he didn't know much about the issue because it "just broke" and he's been concentrating on health care. David Gregory did have the guts to ask Axelrod if the White House was upset about Jones' remarks and Axelrod stuttered a bit but did his usual tap-dance.

The mainstream media won't dare to push hard on the "right-wing conspiracy mantra because it opens up actually revealing what Jones has said and done (besides signing a piece of paper and making a disparaging remark about Republicans.

These left-wingers have no shame.

left the way he came in

"The resignation was disclosed without advance notice by the White House in a dead-of-the-night e-mail on a holiday weekend."

Small victory against an illegal power grab that will be painted as the machinations of the evil right wing conspiracy (A loss to the country?! WHICH country?!).  And he'll likely be replaced with someone who's been scrubbed clean and be far harder to argue down.

But hey, yay for the Constitution.  For once.

I love that Howard Dean (on

I love that Howard Dean (on FNC Sunday) that Jones was a Yale educated lawyer, really intelligent, a loss to the country, etc.  Dean then said Jones signed the 9/11 document because a clipboard was shoved in front of him and he didn't read it.  If all the other stuff doesn't prove Jones wasn't qualified, Dean's words prove it.  Who, especially a lawyer, signs anything without reading it?

is van jones REALLY out ?????

communists are like roaches they scurry under the light of scrutiny, so therefore i contend the obama admin has not lost his phone number or deleted his email, van jones has merely lost his spotlight and due to this it's going to make him an even more angry, bitter, hate-filled, vengeful, radical. he WILL still be active.

Van Jones won't go under the bus

The White House is saying that Obama absolutely did not ask him to resign.

Then it might actually be

Then it might actually be better this way we can, if we can at all, pin the label communist on Duh One.

And, no one is offended by

And, no one is offended by what van jones said: 

MR. GREGORY: But was the president offended by what he said?

MR. AXELROD: I haven’t spoken to the president about this. As you know, this thing has bubbled up in the last few days and, frankly, my conversation with the president has mostly been about health care, which is where our focus should be right now.

MR. GREGORY: Do you find what he said objectionable?

MR. AXELROD: Well, I haven’t read all of his comments, either, David

LOL.

It doesn't get any more in your face despicable than this...it really doesn't, thank goodness the American people have had it with the imbecile, pompous attitude these leftist arseholes have and are on the march.

BT, I for one am sure

BT, I for one am sure enough hoping that the dam has broke and that Americans have awakened for good. I've never seen a President's poll numbers drop so quickly. And I'm very hopeful that Obama's instincts remain true. I said during the campaign that if you get under Obama's skin, just a little, he lashes out bigtime, in a very immature manner. I'm waiting on him to really melt down now, soon. Pass the popcorn.

I've been one that is so sick of seeing his face everyday on some kind of a 'breaking news story' that wasn't breaking news whatsoever, I would immediately mute it or click it off..as bad as I hate to state this once again...bring it on 'O'...bring it on...please keep blathering with your mouth wide open at all times, this week is going to be so interesting by Friday it's not funny, we all know what the likes of the cartoon characters in msnbc are going to do on their funny show, along with the rest of their brethren...what is going to be interesting are the polls, the TH/TP people speaking out and marching to DC in the meantime.   ;-)
