President Obama's "green jobs czar" is co-founder of a black activist organization that has led a campaign prompting major advertisers to withdraw from Glenn Beck's top-rated Fox News Channel program.
In recent weeks, Beck has done several critical segments about Van Jones, who was appointed as the special adviser for green jobs, enterprise and innovation at the White House Council on Environmental Quality.
-break-
Now Colors of Change, an activist organization seeking to "strengthen Black America's political voice" has led a furious campaign against Beck culminating in major companies such as Geico and Lawyers.com pulling their spots from the Fox News star's daily show. The group also says it has garnered about 75,000 signatories for an online petition against Beck to be sent to advertisers.
I AM so SICK AND TIRED of the democrats USING MY MONEY AND YOUR MONEY to pay for PARTISAN CITIZENS to SPREAD ONE MANTRA-uhbama's.
Is there no limit to these CZARS who answer only to the furer? Is there no way to uncover WHAT THEY ARE PAID and WHAT POWER THEY HAVE? After all, DO WE NOT DESERVE TO KNOW IF THEY HAVE POWER OVER US? Can these CZARS use the POWER OF THE WHITE HOUSE TO THREATEN BUSINESSES TO BEND TO THEIR WILL?
IF so...........then this is NOT a democratic republic anymore, this is a TOTALITARIAN STATE and the congress is merely a window dressing or distraction.
This is UN-AMERICAN, it is a bully tactic against conservatives that must be stopped.
WHERE in the HELL is the PRESS?
And WHY in HELL isn't my congressman, Dan Burton, and MY SENATORS, Bayh and Lugar, putting a STOP TO THIS!!!?
This is real scary stuff. They're taking a new approach to eliminating conservative radio.
Some rich conservative ought to file numerous lawsuits against this administration.
Here's another FR thread about this guy:
Mark Lloyd (FCC Diversity Czar)

Saul Alinskys goal was to slowly turn the United States into a Communist dictatorship; to this end he tried to convince various groups of poor people and labor unions to push for legislation in that direction; he did this by appealing to their self-interest whether valid or not instead of using charismatic leadership but now we have Obama, who is skilled in the Alinsky method and charismatic.
It worked. I checked the comments and apparently the E-Mail addresses don’t work. I copied the company names and will go to their sites. Thank you for your time.
There will be no outrage from the media. Beck is being used as an example to them.
Since these groups are “non-profit” your tax dollars, Republic - are helping hire street people and unemployed students...to stand up to real concerned citizens on “health care”...

President Obamas top priority for Congress is health care reform. Insurance companies are spending over a million dollars a day lobbying against the reform, while feeding myths and fears to America. It will take the same grassroots energy that got Obama elected to see the change we voted for. Our work isnt over.

Yes there is...There's even a petition thread on FR but I don't know how to find it.
I called my local State Farm Agent yesterday and told him that he's likely to lose my business if this does not change. He's on our side and he's going to a townhall meeting with me Monday. He's sending an email to corporate headquarters about the problems he's having with this decision...we'll see.
Everybody Do Something Everyday. (We're losing our country)
How can this be stopped? How can all of the legislation wherein funds for ACORN (under the name community action groups, etc) be DE-FUNDED? We MUST DO THIS. The people WILL NOT WORK FOR UHBAMA without the money. The money is the bribe, without it, they don’t care.
Beck isn't a staunch conservative. IMVHO
If 100 people from Free Republic called Chris everyday for a job.612-331-1434 Hmm
Obama is a racist.
The Republicans have let us down.
They have 'theirs' and you getting 'yours' is your problem. They're the new royalty don't you know...different rules for them, even healthcare is different and paid for by you. Just shut-up and pay your taxes.
HOW DOES ONE START A PETITION IN SUPPORT OF GLENN BECK TO SEND TO THESE COMPANIES AND WE PLAN TO BOYCOTT THEIR PRODUCTS
You are correct. I understand that there's as much as $8 Billion in the Stimulus package available to them. Neat trick huh? Use your money to hire people to fight against you.
BTW, if you don't like it, you're RACIST!!
FASCISM: Fascist governments forbid and suppress criticism and opposition to the government and the fascist movement. Fascist establish significant government control over business and labour.
Dem victim groups hire young people to impress brain-dead journalists like Maureen Dowd ( who thinks it's still 1968 and "young idealists" are political) to flood town hall meetings. Dems have been doing rent-a-crowd for years.
The "press" has been blind to it for years. And how do we stop them? We mock the "journalists" who turn a blind eye to this type of manipulation. That's all we can do - dems have all the power - the Presidency the House - and the Senate.
Van Jones sought refuge in the words and actions of civil rights figures such as Malcolm X and the Black Panthers, as well as revolutionaries like Che Guevara and Amilcar Cabral. Scary dude... Read it
