Senior White House adviser Valerie Jarrett will attend the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, on behalf of the Obama administration, officials said.

The Washington Post (NYSE:WPO) reported Saturday that the five-day, invitation-only forum draws leading business leaders from around the world.

White House National Security Adviser James Jones and economic adviser Lawrence Summers had been planning to attend, but will remain in Washington to attend to domestic issues.

"Valerie Jarrett, a senior adviser to the president who is in touch each day with elected officials, business and community leaders across the nation about the economic challenges they face, will represent the administration at Davos," the official said. "Mr. Summers and General Jones will remain in Washington to advise the president on the near-term issues he must address."

Valerie Jarrett, to the best of my knowledge has less than NO economic expertise. I think the Messiah is just rewarding a friend for the pain of not being selected by Crazy Gov. Rob B for Senate seat in Illinois.

I wonder how she is getting there? Gov't plane perhaps? Wonder what the carbon footprint of this trip is going to be? I wonder if she will even attend the meetings, my bet is she spends more time at the spa than sitting in boring meetings.

For what it's worth, Valerie Jarrett is the former daughter-in-law of Vernon Jarrett...

"The late Vernon Jarrett, a pioneer in Black journalism, was her former father-in-law, and Vernon Jordan, the lawyer and civil rights icon, is her great-uncle."

Ahem...would anyone care to explain why 0bama sees the National Security Adviser having such an important role in domestic issues?

The Nation of Islam is a Black Liberation commie front. It's no different than Rev Wright bogus church.

Excerpt from The American Thinker
Article:
Obama, Black Liberation Theology, and Karl Marx
May 28, 2008

Just one nugget from the Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, "Instruction on Certain Aspects of the ‘Theology of Liberation': "...it would be illusory and dangerous to ignore the intimate bond which radically unites them (liberation theologies), and to accept elements of the marxist analysis without recognizing its connections with the (Marxist) ideology, or to enter into the practice of the class-struggle and of its marxist interpretation while failing to see the kind of totalitarian society to which this process slowly leads."
--Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, Prefect, now Pope Benedict XVI; written in 1984

Understanding that black liberation theology is Marxism dressed up to look like Christianity helps explain why there is no conflict between Cone's "Christianity" and Farrakhan's "Nation of Islam." They are two prophets in the same philosophical (Marxist) pod, merely using different religions as backdrops for their black-power aims.

Malik Zulu Shabazz, chairman of the New Black Panther Party for Self-Defense (NBPP):
"We are happy today to be standing side by side with the Nation of Islam. We believe, like the Nation of Islam and the Honorable Elijah Muhammad believe, in a nation of our own. We believe in a Black first philosophy and a Black Liberation Theology. We don’t worry about the criticism. We love all of those who labored in the Panther Party from the ’60s. Many are with us today."

[1960s/original] Black Panther Party [BPP] Archives
From the article: REVOLUTIONARY HEROES

"On May 1st, May Day [1969], the day of the gigantic Free Huey rally, two of Alioto's top executioners vamped on the brothers from the Brown Community who were attending to their own affairs. These brothers, who are endowed with the revolutionary spirit of the Black Panther Party defended themselves from the racist pig gestapo.

Pig Joseph Brodnik received his just reward with a big hole in the chest. Pig Paul McGoran got his in the mouth which was not quite enough to off him.

The revolutionary brothers escaped the huge swarm of pigs with dogs, mace, tanks and helicopters, proving once again that "the spirit of the people is greater than the man's technology."

To these brothers the revolutionary people of racist America want to say, by your revolutionary deed you are heroes, and that you are always welcome to our camp."

Valerie Jarrett:Obama's "White House Senior Advisor and Assistant to the President for Intergovernmental Relations and Public Liaison"

Desiree Rodgers:Obama's personal secretary and (no joke) twice ws queen of the Zulu Social Aid and Pleasure Club

With (again not a joke) "tea bagging" victim Reggie Love, Obama's "Body man", these 3 will be the subject of many fun rumours over the next few years.
