The Blaze was the first to report on the stunning remarks made by Obama Czar Van Jones at an Occupy Rally over one week ago in Los Angeles. At the time, he blasted Libertarians saying they hate, among other things, “brown folk.” But everyone must, at times, answer for the things they say, and Jones is now retracting, sort of, his Libertarian criticism from his speech, “All In For The 99%”.

Here’s the full quote from his earlier remarks: “They say they’re Patriots but they hate everybody in America who looks like us. They say they love America but they hate the people, the brown folk, the gays, the lesbians, the people with piercings, ya know, ya’ll.”

Every word out of Vannie’s mouth is projection of his own hatred onto the people he hates.

How does this man KNOW that I hate him?

Mr. Jones makes so fairly strong presumptions, does he not?

My word.

Pretty much all the truth about the US today, comes from the foreign press.

US MSM Jurinalists are the best lying Communists we have on the planet today.

I know, I also listen to shortwave radio and hear stories that way too. I think it would be a good idea for everyone of us to have a shortwave radio.

One of my Navy friends was a Ham before being a radio officer all his career. The local socialist city council made him take down his antenna mast in 1998. It had been raised by his father in 1950.

With modern equipment I don't suppose it is necessary, but it is indicative.
