Bay Area environmental activist and White House adviser Van Jones is under attack from Republicans for signing a 2004 petition calling for a congressional investigation into the actions of the administration of former President George Bush surrounding the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

Read about half way through the article. You'll find that Jones has support fron a great deal of the mainstream environmental community; indeed, he is very much one of them and one of their leading lights, as can also be seen from this earlier Fox News story:

All of this means he's going to be a very hard turd for the Illegal Alien to flush, especially because it would be such a gallingly large victory for Glenn Beck, Rush, and the alternative media.

The Chronicle is a whole news cycle behind. Today's "discoveries" regarding Jones' background are even more "fun."
This guy is the gift that keeps on giving.

This is making me crazy -- these people are all focused on the truther petition, the *mean word* he called Republican senators, hey presstitutes!! How 'bout Jones laying out the entire program for taking over the country, he has exposed their methods in no uncertain terms, no problem with that??!!!
Once again, they can't see the forest for the trees, pathetic.

Read about half way through the article. You'll find that Jones has support fron a great deal of the mainstream environmental community; Rush has been saying for two decades that the environmentalist movement was the new home for communism. Glenn playing the video of Jones that Breitbart found and sent to him just confirms the long-standing contention of El Rushbo.

Remember this is an article in the hard left SF Chronicle. Any thing they publish is going to have a leftist slant to it. This article about the attacks on Jones also equally attacks his opponents. Obviously this article was planted in the paper to show that the only people attacking him are the far right crazies and this guy is really mainstream, at least in SF.

The Obama Administration is melting down in record time and as buffoons like Van Jones are exposed it can only get worse. This Administration is filled to the rim with wacky types like Jones. After Jones is thrown under the bus, we can start working on the other lunatics who now have the title of Czars. Good Grief!
I'm not surprised the so called mainstream environmental groups are supporting Jones. Most of these groups (Sierra Club, National Resources Defense Council, etc) have been taken over by radical types a long time ago. You see the radical lawyers are one hell of a lot smarter than the people who consider themselves environmentalists. They were easily duped by these scum bag lawyers. I know a number of long time members in the Sierra Club. They are just now beginning to understand that their leadership cares nothing about the environment but is interested in pushing hard left socialism. They are embarrassed that they have been made to look like fools but they are trying in vain to regain control of their organizations. They are fighting a losing battle because as I said the scum of the earth lawyers are a lot smarter than them.

America definitely needs a Czar reform bill. These jerks should either be elected by the people or nominated by the president and confirmed by the Senate. The bill should also do away with all those cabinet positions already in place that are supposed to be doing the jobs that these czars are being hired to do. One of the problems with BIG government is that there is entirely too much redundancy. Someone needs to make up their mind. Do we want cabinet members or czars? America can’t afford to have both. Our country is broke.

I posted this article mainly to show how much support Jones has from thd far left and the environmental community, something the leftist slant of the aricle does a vey good job of. Hence, no barf alert. Unlike most other dog gifts (apologies to my two wonderful dogs), he's going to be really hard to scrape off the administration's shoes. Of course, when it comes to this administration and the Illegal Alien, it's hard to see where the dog gift ends and the rest begins.

I agree with you analysis, and the proof of it is the fact that Van is still there.
Obama has the speech to the kids on Tuesday, and another address to a joint session of Congress on Thursday. If they allow this Jones business to percolate along until Tuesday Morning, all you’re going to hear is Republican after Republican coming up to the microphone and calling for his immediate dismissal. This will only get worse, and Obama has already sustained tremendous damage, whether he is smart enough to figure that out or not.
Van Jones is a gift to the Right, if only they can find a way to use this gift effectively.

Under attack? No, our country is under attack by him and his kind. We are just revealing the truth about him. If that is an attack, then OK. I’ll go with it.
To: libstripper
