Former Democratic Party Chairman Howard Dean said Sunday that the resignation of White House green jobs adviser Van Jones is a "loss for the country."

Van Jones and Obama are so close why would he go thru the normal vetting process?

Don’t vet nominees

Don’t read legislation

Don’t audit stimulus money

Don't pay taxes

There you go...the only reason to not ask him to fill out the questionaire is that Obama and Valerie Jarrett already knew Van Jones quite well. So.....why bother?

They vetted the kennel that sold them Bo more thoroughly than they did Van Jones.
I can’t wait to let them run health care.
Or the economy.
Or the war in Afghanistan and Iraq...

No no, worse yet, signing a truther petitionk, being a self defined communist and calling Republicans names were viewed as plusses for working in this White House. These fools did not view this guy as controversial.

They vetted him. In liberal circles, having the kind of radical, hard left background like that is actually a resume builder. It’s kind of like being a rapper that gets shot. You aren’t considered seriously committed to the cause until you’ve denounced everything that makes America great.

Hey! Dats jus like Obama not filling out the Congressional questionaire that asked:

"What is the defacto location of your birth?"

Do we see a pattern here or what?

What about thise SS thugs he has in his security cordon?(Most of the former career SS guys are out of there.)Have these thugs answered a questionaire that says:

"Have you ever drawn a firearm on a US civilian without just provocation?" ( like they did while racing through Raleigh,North Carolina, with crowds of peaceful protestors against Obama on the sidewalks?)

Looks like a pattern to me.

And its the pattern of a pretend president,a national socialist with a hidden agenda of "historic justice" where the sons of the forefathers must pay for alleged sins they did not commit.

Thats fascism folks.

Do we see a pattern here ?

All you need to do for vetting is check out Wiki on he guy, which clearly says Van Jones is a communist.

Quote:
In 1992, while still a law student at Yale, Jones participated as a volunteer legal monitor for a protest of the Rodney King verdict in San Francisco. He and many other participants in the protest were arrested. The district attorney later dropped the charges against Jones. The arrested protesters, including Jones, won a small legal settlement. Jones later said that “the incident deepened my disaffection with the system and accelerated my political radicalization.”[14] Jones said he was “a rowdy nationalist”[11] before the King verdict was announced. In October 2005 he reported that by August of 1992 he was a communist. [11]

I certainly do...it's like when the black-panther/acorn thug said to the voter outside the polling-booth, 'the black man is going to rule you crackers!'

I always thought that the Cabinet members were his advisors, and his access to government programs.

I don’t ever remember a president requiring more than 3 or four ‘special’ advisors. I do remember presidents gathering task forces to study an issue of primary concern. But they weren’t there for the duration of his term.

Personally, I think these people are Obama’s team for when he gets the revolution he’s so drooling over, ready to take over the government.

This freaking Muslim intends to have his own jihad against citizens of the US. He is a truly disturbed child in a man’s body rejected by both his parents, but who always held dreams that his father would come rescue him from his lonely life at the elite Hawaiian boarding school where his white grandparents plopped him nicely out of the way.

So basically they are saying, “Yes, this is the most incompetent administration in the history of the USA.”
