Another of the fine people with whom Barack Obama habitually surrounds himself has politically perished. “Green jobs czar” Van Jones, whose star has fallen noticeably even since I started typing this sentence, quit yesterday.
Things started getting dicey for him when footage of him calling Republicans “assholes” surfaced. Then, it came to light that he had signed a petition concerning the “truth” about the September 11 attacks.
Do you know about these folks, these 9/11 “truthers”? They rely on the substantial metallurgical and engineering expertise of people like Charlie Sheen and Rosie O’Donnell to conclude that the U.S. government did it, or allowed it to happen, or anything but the fact that radical Islamic fundamentalists hijacked four airliners and used them as missiles to murder 3,000 American civilians.
The specific statement that Van Jones signed called for “immediate public attention to unanswered questions that suggest that people within the current administration may indeed have deliberately allowed 9/11 to happen, perhaps as a pretext for war.”
(He says now that he didn’t read it closely, or something. Uh-huh.)
Buh bye, Van. I wish you’d tried to stand fast a little longer—it was entertaining—but at least we have your vituperative, everybody’s-fault-but-mine resignation letter to enjoy. (I love the irony of a 9/11 moonbat accusing his political opponents of “using lies and distortions to distract and divide.”)
So, screen door, and all that. I’d sign languishing book deals or anything of the sort really quickly, ’cause it won’t be but a few weeks before you’re just another…asshole.
Hey Barack! I think the guy you bring in next should be a hateful lunatic who babbles about the Zionist federal government inventing AIDS to kill the black man! Oh, but I guess you already dissociated yourself from your preacher.

Sorry, I am STILL smiling about this. Is this admin. just that incompetent or are they truly so arogant that they think us poor idiots out here will just smile & nod and agree with this shit? I fear it is that latter. I’m sorry, but this guy was just a big NO-NO from day one. And this business about not realizing what he had signed his name to? Listen, buddy, if you put your name to something, you better by God know what it is. To quote our favorite minister, these chickens have come home to roost….
And to blame it on a vicious smear campaign. WTF? I believe a middle-schooler with a pretty good internet connection and search engine would have been able to bring this guy down, unviciously and without smear. But, you know why we are against him, right……? Just like that congresswoman said last week. We’re all racist bigots out here.
And what about the Regulation Czar who thinks it would be okay to remove/donate the organs of those who didn’t explicitly say they’d rather not? The same guy who wrote in a book a few years ago:
“[A]nimals should be permitted to bring suit, with human beings as their representatives, to prevent violations of current law … Any animals that are entitled to bring suit would be represented by (human) counsel, who would owe guardian like obligations and make decisions, subject to those obligations, on their clients’ behalf.”

sorry for the misspelled/tyo-os – i was typing in anger 🙂
The double standard is lovely, isn’t it? Don’t worry about all of the verifiable lunatics in the White House. Nothing to see here. Move along.
Now if one of them suddenly started talking sincerely about his relationship with Christ, now that would be a nut case.
Looks like Pres. Obama needs a Vetting Czar. What an absolute tool. What’s next, Ray Nagin as the City Planning Czar?
I really need to read more slowly. I saw your Twitter “tweet” and read it as “Qwickie with Lea…” and thought “My man!” then got to “…and the boys” and thought “Ummm, ewww, huh?” I need more sleep.
Oh, Dan, thanks for a good laugh. Ray would be a GREAT city planning czar. And the Qwickie with Lea? I almost blew Chardonnay out my nose!!
I particularly enjoyed watching Juan Williams and Mara Liasson on Fox News this morning during the Round Table discussion of this topic. Priceless.
Ha ha ha, the Nagin comment was priceless.
