Van Jones, the Obama administration's "green jobs" adviser, told a group of listeners earlier in the year that the reason Republicans are stonewalling the president is because they're "a******s."

Jones' remarks were recorded in a video from February that was posted to YouTube...

This bit of wisdom from the guy that doesn’t know what constitutes a “green job” yet is in charge of making sure we have more of them.

Yeah, Beck has been having a great time skewing that lefty fool. Unfortunately, there he sits as the MSM has no qualms with him.

So much for President “I’m going to change the tone in Washington” Obama. I wonder if this comment will be brought up in one of his, seemingly endless, prime-time press conferences.

“VAN JONES, IN HIS OWN WORDS”

http://www.glennbeck.com/content/articles/article/198/29999/

“We’re going to take another look at our new green jobs “czar,” or special adviser to the president for green jobs or whatever they want to call him. But what I want to do is to really take a good, hard look at who Van Jones is.

We’ve told you for the last couple months now, that Jones is an avowed, radical, revolutionary communist...”

So the woman asked what sounded like a legitimate question:
How come Dems, even though they have the majority, aren’t able to push through promised legislation.

And this is the best analysis he can come up with? And the audience buys it?

When are Dems going to demand an answer to this question? It can’t be the assholes entire fault can it? The “good guys” have majorities in the House, Senate and a President who will sign what they give him.

When will the Dems demand a real answer?

I’d prefer to be an “A-hole” over a gutless, limp-wristed, control freaks who are incapable of sanity and logic like libtards.

It’s ironic and nearly inconceivable that somebody known as a “green jobs” adviser could call anybody else an asshole.

Even more “ironic” is that we have a President who refuses to provide his long form birth certificate.

I take that as a compliment.

Not only am I an @$$#013 I'm one of the worst @$$#013s these SoBs have ever met.

We should be their worst nightmare.

The concept that this commie a-hole just doesn’t get is the fact that even republicans pay his salary.

Let's not be hypocritical. Bush called Clymer an A-Hole...so let's not get all righteous.

I think the degree of generalization is an issue. Calling out one individual for anal-retentive behavior is one thing, branding at least half the voting public as the such is another.

So? Libs are morons. They have a mental disorder. Stand by your convictions. If Bush would have articulated the above opinion (held by most of us here)...I would have been much happier with him. So some lib things were A-holes. Who cares? I personally think there’s too MUCH civility in government. You got senators calling each other “my friend from the great state of _____” after they get stabbed in the back...instead of saying...”would the B&#!H from California please yeild?”

Maybe if the republicans in congress WERE assholes they would grow a spine and stand up to the asshole demwits.

Another fact he doesn’t get is that

REPUBLICANS CAN’T STOP ANY LEGISLATION AT ALL.

So, if you want to pass it, go ahead.

Your example is not even close. Yes, Bush called Clymer an a-hole but in a private conversation with Cheney that was over heard and reported. Van Jones made his comments as part of a speech.
