WASHINGTON - An environmental adviser for President Barack Obama, Van Jones, has resigned amid controversy over past inflammatory statements, the White House said early Sunday.

Van Jones, an administration official specializing in environmentally friendly "green jobs," has been linked to efforts suggesting a government role in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and to derogatory comments about Republicans.........."

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.

[Stentor]

Fittingly, the story seems to have been broken by the the American ANC house organ.

Time for Obama to resign now. Obama has surrounded himself with the radicals because he’s one of them.

Don't count on it he might say he has resigned but keep watching the scum bags in Washington..I can bet you he will still be hanging around and getting paid by George Soro’s..We need to make sure this scum bag along with the rest leave Washington,next impeach his friend Obama and the rest of the commies up there..Then vote out the scum in Senate and Congress..

Thank you Glenn Beck for keeping us informed..

Good Riddance..Throw all of the czars asses out. I am pissed Jones didn’t take Obama with him

CNN hasn’r reported a word of this story prior to this. HE IS A COMMUNIST.

Can or will the Sunday shows ignore it?

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

[Lancey Howard]

A few pundits thought he wouldn’t make it to Tuesday.

Isn't late Saturday night, after the Sunday newspapers are already out the door, considered by the scumbag politicians and their allies in the Democrat newsrooms to be the best time to unload politically damaging news?

UP NEXT: CASS SUNSTEIN AND JOHN HOLDREN

Hahaha. Hit the road, jerk.

[ABQHispConservative]

One down, about 30 czars to go. Way to go Glenn! I loath to go to dailykos or rat underground, but they must be banging their heads against their keyboards.

[NeoCaveman]

The MSM doesn’t matter.

Lets get the other czars Jones was bad, but not the worst.

Sunstein, Holdren, Lloyd.
