I wonder if the NAACP thinks of Obama since they believe Van Jones is a consensus and not some radical nut job.

Around midnite on the East coast.
They wanted desperately to hang onto him, but figured this holiday weekend was their chance to dump him quietly.
Bye, bye Van.

Yeah well his staff better bring more than one mop. Apparently he has a urine issue when he gets excited. Well at least that is what rumors say.

Mr. Obama needs to resign: Anyone who would appoint communists, criminals, tax cheats, liberal fascists and dyed-in-the-wool socialists to his cabinet and “czar” positions has no judgement or common sense, in my opinion. Oh, and we’d still like to see a real birth certificate, school records, transcripts, voting record, etc...

The Fox News people were on target with this one. Who resigns in the middle of the night on Saturday of a three day weekend? What a loser.

Van Jones resigns over contraversial remarks made
NOTHING about his history or the fact that he’s a Commie.
Hard to report news without much of a basis of fact for the viewing audience of two...lol.
Of course, pmsnbc is showing LockUp right now.

So the muzzie in chief appoints a SELF ADMITTED COMMUNIST and CNN and the rest of the socialist press refuse to cover it.
Now that he has resigned we shall see the ultimate in propaganda, because I am sure they will continue to fail to mention the fact that he is a communist.

Now, OBAMA who let this vile P.O. S H I tee should tender his resignation as well. He let this fox into the hen house. It is OBAMAS fault for Van Jones’ failure. His alone.
Time for Americans to rise up and rally against this Stalinist push by the Obama faction. Push back hard.

All stories need a factual basis. I guess "contraversial statements" will have to suffice.
