Agreed. It is turning into the cultural warfare 0bama started. But he KNOWS he only won with Independent votes and he lost the seniors now. He is toast, he knows it so he will go all comrade.
Gee, I wonder if she voted for Obama?
She has a Masters Degree in Pretzel Logic. (snort)
She is single now, according to Vogue but she was married to John W. Rogers, the founder and CEO of Ariel Investments at one time.
All of this is out there on the web, I know she is a great networker and has been influential in many ways. Below from Whorunsgov.com.
Rogers comes to the White House after a career in business. Most recently, she was charged with heading up a new social networking site being launched by Allstate Financial, and before that, she spent more than a decade working for Peoples Energy Corp., first as the chief marketing officer for the parent company and later as the president of Peoples Gas and North Shore Gas in Chicago.
Rogers, whose ex-husband is very close to Barack Obama and played basketball with Michelle Obama’s brother Craig Robinson, has known the Obamas for years and been a prodigious donor to Barack Obama’s political campaigns since 1999. She will be the first black social secretary in the White House, but the title of “first African-American” is not something new for Rogers, who was also the first black president of Peoples Gas. “I would like to see the day when we can say we are not the first Black because there are so many of us,” she said when she left Peoples Gas.Wendell, Hutson, “Peoples Gas first Black president resigns,” Chicago Defender (Illinois), July 2, 2008 – July 8, 2008(2)Wendell, Hutson, “Peoples Gas first Black president resigns,” Chicago Defender (Illinois), July 2, 2008 – July 8, 2008
Senior Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett said Rogers will try to open up the White House “so it’s the people’s house again. This campaign engaged a lot of people in ways they had not engaged before. This is about continuing to capture that excitement.”Romano, Lois, “Friend of the Obamas to be social secretary,” The Washington Post, Nov. 24, 2008(1)Romano, Lois, “Friend of the Obamas to be social secretary,” The Washington Post, Nov. 24, 2008
John W Rogers is also all over the web. His new wife Sharon Fairley as well. Sharon has been executive director of Pharmacia and I read somewhere that she was an assistant to the US Attorney in Chicago or was it that she was the US Attorney??
I watched an interview with John and he recommends investing in the Housing industry as well as Healthcare. He stated, Make sure all citizens have a right to healthcare and how investing in implantable devices like hips and Knees can be a source of wealth creation.
(That gave me the creeps because I believe there is something in the Healthcare bill regarding medical device registry, etc.)
could be huh? ya think? :)

is that because of the 0bama avatar I wonder?
I would like to respond in kind:
"But if you go carryin' pictures of Chairman Mao, you ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow!"
heh, heh, heh
She has never met Napoleon, but she plans to find the time...
These are the very same people that were crying, “Dissent is the highest form at patriotism” just a few years ago.
Thaz right, Boz. ;^)
Jones' downfall is great news, but if the above were true, Baraqqi would not be President.
So true. Never thought about that. 0bama had strong kool-aid, magic powers that have worn off. He just doesn’t know it yet he is so blinded by radical power.
Communist comrade in the WhiteHouse. Throw them out!
Hasn’t been our media in a very long time. They are part of the propaganda machine. They have purposely ignored, twisted or denied facts for a reason. :-p

“In 1992, during the Rodney King riots in Los Angeles, Jones was arrested and jailed for his role in the protest. He said of his time in prison, “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 working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary...”
Bottom line: Van Jones is a rabid Marxist. I'm glad he is out of power.
