“A troubled and afflicted mankind looks to us, pleading for us to keep our rendezvous with destiny; that we will uphold the principles of self-reliance, self-discipline, morality, and, above all, responsible liberty for every individual that we will become that shining city on a hill.” — Ronald Wilson Reagan

Van Jones And The “Green Revolution”

Self-avowed communist and 9/11 “truther” Van Jones, who is President Obama’s “green” job “czar”, mentions revolution through the green movement (see video below).

This has already received plenty of air time and it appears Mr. Jones might be shown the door by the Obama administration [Article - 'Green Jobs' Adviser's Past Could Stir Trouble for White House at Critical Time]. Of course, by being “shown the door” I mean the door to the room where Tom Daschle is sitting as an unofficial advisor to the President. Of course, all Obama has to do is appoint another extreme radical who is just as bad or worse than Van Jones, although he can’t get much worse. Sadly, there are plenty of Marxist radicals to choose from in this country.

Who was responsible for vetting Mr. Jones? More importantly, didn’t the Obama administration know who Van Jones was before they made him an advisor to President Obama? What did White House Senior Advisor Valerie Jarrett say about Van Jones when he was in Oakland, California [Article - Timing Of Protest Is Suspect]? Is this another example of the kind of transparency that Obama promised? Should we take Obama’s advice and judge him by the people who surround him [Article - Obama: 'Judge me by the people who surround me']?

Hope and change! Skin in the game! Sacrifice! Sacrifice!
