For the environmental movement, Jones' resignation is a setback. One can only hope that his unwelcome celebrity of the past week will have the positive side effect of galvanizing support for his work; that it will call attention to urban poverty, pollution and his ideal of a green economy. To the extent Jones' agenda succeeds, it will benefit all of us. Even the polar bears.

How Low can this paper go by posting this on 9/11?

I had no idea there were so many polar bears in the inner cities, demanding a redistribution of wealth.

To: Haddit
In fact, he has been moving to the center, where the power is, for years. He has spent his time writing grants, appealing to city councils and working with legislators such as Nancy Pelosi on green-jobs bills.I guess I never looked at like that before. How could somebody working with Nancy Pelosi be some sort of radical, when she's such a moderate voice of centrist reason?
What this incident shows conclusively is that it is not possible to be too far left to be considered a whacko. Practically everybody on the right is a nut. Everybody on the left is mainsteam, no matter how badly they crave tyranny an despair for their fellow Americans.

Judith Lewis is one of the empty headed "true believers." She thinks she's above politics. Her idiotic gushing reminds me of Meg Whitman's. She writes in an almost romantic prose about Humbolt in

The LA Times would have more credibility if they stopped pimping this guy.

I wonder, does Sam Zell still own the LATimes? If so, following the path of his ownership in the Chicago Trib, he must be trying to drive the LATimes into bankruptcy,

To the extent Jones' agenda succeeds, it will benefit all of us Hussein Obama, his minions, and his handlers like Soros, Podesta, Emanuel, Jarrett, Axelrod, ACORN's Rathke, and the SEIU. 
For the rest of us, Freedom FAIL.
