The Case Against Van Jones

I spliced together several segments from various Glenn Beck Shows making the case against Obama’s green job Czar Van Jones.

There is no way anyone can intelligently whitewash this evidence.  It is important to note the White House has not refuted any of the arguments made in the video.

Van Jones self avowed communist


In Van Jones’ own words about his conversion to communism:

“In jail I met all these young radical people of color — I mean really radical,  communists and anarchists. And it was, like, ‘This is what I need to be a part of.’  I spent the next ten years of my life [from 1992 to 2002] working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary… I was a rowdy nationalist on April and then the verdicts came down on April 29. By August, I was a Communist.”

In 2005 Van Jones said:

“I’m willing to forgo the cheap satisfaction of the radical pose for the deep satisfaction of radical ends”

Then Green Job Czar Van Jones in April 2008 radio interview said:

“One of the things that has happened I think too often to progressives is that we don’t understand the relationship between minimum goals and maximum goals. Right after Rosa Parks, refused to give up her seat, if the civil rights leaders had jumped out and said, ok now we want reparations for slavery, we want redistribution of all wealth, and we want to legalize mixed marriages that had been their, they would have come out with a maximum program, the very next day, they would have been laughed at, instead they came out with a very minimum program, you know we just want to integrate these buses, the students a few years later came out with a very minimum program.

We just want to sit at the lunch counter, but, inside that minimum demand was a very radical kernel that eventually meant that from 1954 – 1968, you know, complete revolution was on the table, for this country and I think this green movement has to pursue those same steps, and stages.

Right now we’re saying we want to move from suicidal grey capitalism to some kind of eco-capitalism where, you know, at least we’re not, you know, fast-tracking destruction of the whole planet. Will that be enough? No it won’t be enough, we want to go beyond ex-systems of exploitation and oppression altogether but that’s a process, and I think what’s great about the movement that’s beginning to emerge is that the crisis is so severe in terms of joblessness, violence, and now ecological threats that people are willing to be both very pragmatic and very visionary and so the green economy will start off as a small subset and we’re going to push it and push it and push it until it becomes the engine for transforming the whole society.”

And then, in the words of Glenn Beck, ‘way way way way way back last March 2009‘ Van Jones said:

“All we do is take out the dirty power system – the dirty power generation – in a system, and just replace it with some clean stuff – put a solar panel on top of this system. But we don’t deal with how we are consuming water. We don’t deal with how we’re treating our other sister and brother species. We don’t deal with toxins.  We don’t deal with how we treat each other. If that is not a part of this movement, let me tell you what you will have. This is all you will have – you’ll have solar powered bulldozers, solar powered buzz saws, and bio-fuelled bombers and we will be fighting wars over lithium for the batteries instead of oil for the engines and we will still have a dead planet.

This movement is deeper than a solar panel – deeper than a solar panel! Don’t stop there – don’t stop there! No, we are going to change the whole system! We are going to change the whole thing!

A Communist In The White House? 1992 And 2009

Following from PajamasTV:

The year was 1992. Bill Clinton had won the Presidential election, and he was preparing to make appointments to fill Cabinet positions. The leading candidate for Secretary of Education was an African-American woman who was head of his transition team for education, labor and the humanities, Johnnetta Cole. She was President of Spelman College in Atlanta, a highly regarded institution for black women, and sat on the boards of many corporations, including the Atlanta based Coca-Cola, and Merck pharmaceuticals. She currently is Director of the Smithsonian Museum of African Art. If you Google or Bing her name, there will be scores of sites linking to her solid establishment pedigree.

Only one thing is left out, and seems nowhere to be found. That is her longstanding ties to the Communist Party of the United States. That was not the case as Clinton was preparing to assume the presidency. …
