Believing Sept. 11 to have been "hijacked by Republicans," President Obama had a secret plan to "flush 9/11 down the memory hole" in order to benefit Democrats, the author of a brand-new book is claiming.
According to "Subversion Inc." by investigative journalist Matthew Vadum, Obama sought to make the environment the prime concern on 9/11 instead of the worst terrorist attacks in U.S. history.
The president allegedly used his green jobs czar Van Jones and the leftist group ACORN to help orchestrate the transformation.
"The leftists at ACORN view September 11 as a 'Republican' day because it focuses the public on supposedly 'Republican' issues like patriotism, national security, and terrorism," writes Vadum, a senior editor at Capital Research Center in Washington, D.C.
"They complain that 9/11 was long ago hijacked by Republicans and their enablers and unfairly used to bludgeon helpless Democrats every election. MSNBC host Keith Olbermann summed up this ugly perspective, calling 9/11 'a brand name. A Republican campaign slogan. Propaganda of the lowest form.'"
Vadum explains that by June 2009, ACORN – the acronym for the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now – realized how much money was to be made by jumping on the "green economy" bandwagon. But the author calls a green economy a utopian fantasy.
"The kind of economy radical environmentalists want to force on America is heavily subsidized by the government and bans oil and coal, forcing people to rely on inferior 'sustainable' energy sources," Vadum writes.

And now that OBL is sleeping with the fishes, look for the Zer0 to tell the US it needs to look forward, turn the page, and other cliches, and make 9/11 a day of Service.
I thought it was Marx but he wasn’t born in 1870. The same for Engels. Let’s go for Lenin. The right one gets the prize - The Order of Lenin - as a paperweight.
By the way, I covered the first Earth Day in DC and it was a red show all the way.
I also got a story out of it and a Swedish blond. Not bad for one day’s work.
“The leftists at ACORN view September 11 as a ‘Republican’ day because it focuses the public on supposedly ‘Republican’ issues like patriotism, national security, and terrorism”
Isn’t that pathetic! ALL Americans should care about these things. More and more, I feel for all the old-style Democrats (like Pat Caddell*, Doug Schoen, etc.). They know their party has been hijacked - majorly - by radical leftists.

This would explain Obama’s “SPIKING THE FOOTBALL” tour.
Liberals are so F’n evil.
Are you referring to Ira Einhorn, or was there another murderer who co-founded Earth Day?
