Obama's green cszar a "former" communist

Van Jones, the guy is straight up radical.

"I met all these young radical people of color -- I mean really radical, communists and anarchists. And it was, like, 'This is what I need to be a part of.' I spent the next ten years of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary. I was a rowdy nationalist on April 28th, and then the verdicts came down on April 29th. By August, I was a communist."

This was in 2005, so its not like this was a long time ago. The guy as a long list of radical quotes and opinions.

My question is were is the media and who the hell vetted this guy? Why is Obama surrounded by so many far left communists/Marxists/socialists, but not one? Doesn't it bother anyone that Obama has appointed a self described communist to a position with no over sight?

Here is what Michel Savage said about him. Yeah I know, MS is out there, but what he says here is right on.

His group "colorofchange.org", he helped found it but according to their website he's not active in it anymore, is the one pressuring sponsors to drop their support of Beck over his "Obama is rascist" comment. He currently heads "The Apollo Alliance" who pretty much wrote the stimulus bill and the cap and trade bill.

There's a lot more info on this piece of work:

Much worse then promoting an oil man to over see his own industry.
I bet this slime bucket will double dip the compost sector and share his transgressions
with lazy people who don't work.

What we need is Joe McCarthy, he will limit the intrusion of government

When you understand this kind of stuff we can talk - until then it is merely a catch phrase of parochialism, a shibboleth of the intellectually disenfranchised a rally cry of the mentally feckless.

If you want a decent conversation - start a decent thread and be prepared to take on board the real meaning of things you have no idea about - things which are currently merely iconic generalizations of popular myths spun to part your mind.

Oh, well... by all means - please enlighten us. What I understand so far is that this guy has supported, and appears to continue to support, causes and philosophies that run directly counter to the founding principles of this country. If we are mistaken on that then please share.

He was in prison multiple times and has made clear that his goal is to force "change" of his flavor. He was not elected, he was appointed. He should not have the powers he does.

At the VERY LEAST, he deserves SOME media scrutiny.

I'm sure we can have a so called "intellectual debate" over the pros and cons of being an axe murderer too, but that doesn't make it right. We're not a nation of communists. We're a nation of freethinkers and liberty lovers. We're innovates and lovers. I don't care what new age, left wing rationalizations for communism you've been exposed too, but just know that many of us will fight against such a thing.

I highly doubt proponents of communism in America have either the motivation or balls to start such a fight.

Yeah, I know its Glenn Beck, but he lays out how these organizations are all working together to force change most people probably dont want. Its pretty sad that a wacky commentator like Beck has to be the one to do the investigating our MSM refuses to do. Its a democrat in office after all....

Your making the accusations - what are they exactly ? And where is the evidence.

Until then - innocent.

Glenn explain all of this really well in these clips. For a crazy man, he sure does present his argument really well.
