Van Jones: From Truther To (Maybe) Unemployed

Let’s mash two Van Jones articles into one here, shall we?

First off, we have definitive proof that Van Jones’ statement that “I do not agree with this statement and it certainly does not reflect my views now or ever,” was, well, how shall we put this diplomatically… a bald-faced LIE!

Enter the fine folks at Gateway Pundit, who did a quick Google search (does Obama just not know about Google?) and found the smoking gun, an ad from a 2002 “San Francisco March To Demand Congressional Inquiry Of 911,” and guess who’s name appears as one of the primary speakers? One “Van Jones, national executive director, Ella Baker Center for Human Rights.” Follow the link above for images of the brochure if you don’t believe me (or even if you do believe me, for that matter).

Apparently this is getting too hot for His Obamaness… Mickey Kaus says he is hearing rumors that Jones will be “gone by midnight,” and says that Mark Ambinder is also hearing the same sort of thing.

One might have thought that after the whole tax-problems brouhaha, the Obamaites would get the message and do at least a cursory Google search on the people they want to bring in. Instead, it seems that they’ve decided to keep them away from Senate confirmation and appoint them to “czar” positions, hoping that will keep things like this from coming to light.

Query for the Obama White House: Instead of trying to hide, deny, obfuscate, and flush things like this down the memory hole, why not just appoint reasonable people instead of all these wacko radicals?

Hmm… maybe because that’s the only kind of people Obama knows after all those years in Chicago?

    Hello CW. Glad to be back. I truly believe that Obama knows what type of individuals his “czars” are.

    Before, during and after his presidential campaign, he has continually alluded and has almost outright said that he surrounds himself with people who think like he does and who share the same beliefs he has.

    This is the Obama who was mentored by Frank Marshall Davis. This is the Obama who sat through and listened to 20 years of vile, vitriolic, anti-American “sermons” given by one Jeremiah Wright. This is the Obama who associated with home-grown terrorists like William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn. This is the real Obama. It disgusts me.

    People were warned what kind of person Barack Obama really was. Some voted for him because they wanted to help make history. Some voted for him for “hope and change”. Some voted for him because they are mindless, overly-emotional Obamatons.

    At least I can be safe in the comfort of knowing that I didn’t vote for Obama because I knew what kind of person he was and is through the investigative research I did. If he would have proven to be a conservative, almost Reagan-esque candidate, I would have voted for him. Instead we have a borderline Leninist/Stalinist disgracing the Oval Office. A sad and sorry state of affairs for the United States of America.
