but going full commie is a bit far. Not as far left as Beck is right, but still too far.
I know Beck enjoys saying he is not a righty, just a clown with common sense. Not too common, not too much sense.
How long before Beck resigns as well for the same reasons?
Just listening to the direct quotes he sounded quite reasonable to me. Alot of people have radical views when they are at University but mellow when they get older. Oh well. I would have preferred to see Rahm Immanuel go instead of this guy. Can he be next please.
Rahm can’t leave? Who would be president then?
Had to stop listening after a few minutes due to the crappy music library piano.
Beck is an asshat. As is Van Jones.
“but going full commie is a bit far.”
Jones stated he was a communist and proud of it.
“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.” In the months that followed, he let go of any lingering thoughts that he might fit in with the status quo. “I was a rowdy nationalist on April 28th, and then the verdicts came down on April 29th,” he said. “By August, I was a communist.”
In 1994, the young activists formed a socialist collective, Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement, or STORM, which held study groups on the theories of Marx and Lenin and dreamed of a multiracial socialist utopia.

In fact, to be really insensitive about it, Van Jones is a watermelon. Green on the outside, red on the inside.
Sheesh. Hell in a hand basket. This country is fucked.
So Obama decided to take out a commie when he was exposed. I don’t know what’s worse, thinking he didn’t know before and hired someone he didn’t have idea of who he was or booting him after his feelings were exposed. Hmmmm.
I would be very careful if I were you guys. The likes of this dude are way too close (and in a greater number than you think) to Obama. And there’s a definitive international monement to push these idiots to power.
#7 You have no idea how much. The illegal immigration movement will be used to further these nutjobs’ agenda in the US. I’ve been warning you all about it. These are the same nutjobs that seized venezuela.
Why so many extreme left and rights? Where are the moderates on both sides who compromised? Jones had obviously some extreme views and with Obama already having trouble with mending fences and getting things done. He did not need Jones.
Obama surrounds himself with people like him. This is why his ass will be a one term president. Far left progressive politics will never be supported at the national level. Think otherwise? Tell me why Cynthia McKinney only got a few percentage points. Pelosi only has to get the vote from the cornholers in SF. THe president has to get a majority from across the country. It was the independents that put Obama in the white house. It appears he has lost the independents.
Looks like Beck got the last laugh
the Left wing libs get a few advertisers he gets the green czar looks like a great trade to me keep up the good work Beck
#8–Pedro==I do recall Obama saying some pretty pro-illegal immigration things. Funny how the “far left” and “far right” both want illegal immigration. The left for social justice and the right for slave wages.
I guess the path to hell can be paved with BAD intentions too.
#10 Nobody will support that in today’s US. Wait until you get more illegal immigrants in, who can be easily bought with a fast-tracked nationality, nice words and some trinkets.
Anyone think Van Jones is really reformed, or will he go back to saying the same things again when he is out of the White House?
He went from saying that 9/11 was the US fault for its military industrial oil complex, and the chickens coming home to roost, to saying that it was an inside job by the military industrial oil complex.
What did the White House have to say about Van Jones’ views and statements?
Only thing I can find is Gibbs “doesn’t endorse but thanks him for his service.”
One need only look at the total absence of coverage of avowed Communist, racist, and truther Jones in the mainstream media up to this week to understand just what trouble American politics are in.
We might as well have Pravda and Izvestia as the NY Times, DC Post and ABC/CBS/NBC/CNN and the rest of the “thrill up my leg” media.
Who the hell vetted this dumbass in the first place? Oh wait, the Senate doesn’t get to vet them because all the Czars fall outside the Constitution. I’d guess about 20-25 of the Czars wouldn’t stand up under the scrutiny and maybe 5 or so couldn’t get a parking pass for a tour of the Whitehouse.
Hopey-Changey for a better tomorrow.
#8, So Obama decided to take out a commie when he was exposed. I don’t know what’s worse, thinking he didn’t know before and hired someone he didn’t have idea of who he was or booting him after his feelings were exposed. Hmmmm.
If he didn’t know beforehand, he’s incompetent. As we all know he isn’t incompetent, he obviously knew. Case closed. We’ve got a communist for a president.
#9, Where are the moderates on both sides who compromised?
When you compromise with evil, evil wins.
If Czars don’t fall within the constitution, then we don’t have to listen to or do anything they say now do we? Bravo to Beck, Dvorak, and commenters here.
One thing’s for sure, the title name fitted him perfectly. What else could you appoint as a Czar than a commie?
#16 said “We might as well have Pravda and Izvestia as the NY Times, DC Post and ABC/CBS/NBC/CNN and the rest of the “thrill up my leg” media.”
It certainly appears that way.
#12
Please. The far left could care less about social justice. They want illegal immigration for bodies to vote.
#12 You say political justice, I say political destabilization. But yes, both sides want illegals for their own benefit.
I love it when people call Obama “far-left.” They have no idea how far to the right you have to be to make Obama seem radically leftist. Listen to Democracy Now for a week and you will hear just how far from the “far-left” Obama is. The difference between Obama’s policies and any of the other presidents of the last 29 years is minimal. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss…
Mr. Obama, you are not inspiring us anymore. Day after day of incompetence is wearing us all out. Why didn’t the geniuses at NYT, CNN, MSNBC see this coming and warn us? They always had our back with Bush and Cheney. Now they can’t follow a very important story that affects all Americans(Amerikans?). So sad.
#22–Thomas==I agree but about half their spokesmen would throw in the idea of “being fair” to those who do jobs American’s wouldn’t do.
#23–Pedro==Illegal immigration and excess immigration leads to social instability and neither side recognized, claimed, or spoke to that issue.
#24–Jc==I agree completely and that is demonstrated by Obama being pushed by his left wing base AND why the rightwing nutbags are just that.
#25–Bill==”They always had our back with Bush and Cheney.” /// Huh? One of the few American Institutions failing to do their jobs as consistently as our government is the MEDIA. Constant fail. They toady to those in power instead of taking them on.
I have to question Van Jones’s intelligence. Besides being a Truther, the guy decides he is a Communist in 1992 — right after Communism collapsed all around the world. That tells me the guy is an idiot or he doesn’t read newspapers.
#27 Wrong. That’s when they started their attack on south america. That’s when chavez made his first coup de etat in venezuela (he was not the leader, but was the guy who gained notoriety when he was caught). It began way before that since they had to prepare him for that coup.
…he has been replaced by the Rev. Jerimiah Wright, now viewed by many as more moderate.
Interesting how many of you have no clue as to what Herr Obama is doing. Why does he have so many Czars “advising” him? Because these people have no oversight. They weren’t confirmed. WV Democrat Senator has warned Obama that what he is doing is unconstitutional. I hope Byrd pushes this and has Obama GET RID OF ALL OF THESE RADICALS he has unlawfully brought around him.
The guy is a self avowed communist? What else is needed to be known? He should NEVER been in there. And for those that still think he should not be in there? HE IS A COMMUNIST!!!!!!!
And next on the hit list will be the REAL crazies that are “CZARS”. The ones that espouse population control via the water supply and the forcing of a 1 child policy. As well as the maniacs that also believe strongly and have been caught on tape or in interviews stating flatly that they believe that medical efforts should be directed to those that would benefit the whole of society if they are saved. (Translated: All useless eaters are to die.) This was a cornerstone tenet of the Nazi policies regarding mass killings. People are always up in arms about the Nazis and the Jews. Well, guess what, out of 11 million people killed by the Nazi concentration camp system, only 6 million were Jews.
And for those that are totally unaware, the Nazis were secretly killing “useless eaters” WAY before they started killing Jews. They would lie and say that they were being taken to a special hospital only to be killed with carbon monoxide.
Don’t think it can happen here? Well it will if there are wackjob radicals like this allowed into the inner sanctum of the Obama administration.
Goebbels was recruited from a chicken farm…
Fox is laughing all the way to the bank with the mega-ratings Beck is pulling in.
CNN is scratching their head, wondering what happened.
“How did Van Jones get so close to the President?
There are only two possible answers.
1. The FBI failed miserably during its vetting process.
or
2. The President knew how radical Van Jones really was.
Answer #1 puts the President in danger.
Answer #2 puts America in danger.
So what did the New York Times have to say about Van Jones? So far all I see are AP and Reuters articles about his resignation, and one AP story on Friday. If you get your news from the print version of the Times, what did you actually learn?
How will Obama get revenge for losing one of his comrades? Close Fox and Drudge?
Obama, Reid, Pelosi and all the crooks they brought with them should ALL go! The sooner the better!
Little Bush wins with the most Czars so far. Obama has 32 czar position filled while Little Bush ha 36. In third place, you have FDR with 10 czar positions. Fourth place goes to Clinton with 7 czars and fifth place goes to Truman with 6 czars.
The next person to be president should be ready to appoint at least 40 czar positions in order to be Supreme Ruler.
Wouldn’t it be interesting that after all these years of pushing democracy on all other countries, USA finally becomes a dictatorship.
That’s one. How many more are in powerful positions?
Keep up the good work Beck
#30 The Warden said “I hope Byrd pushes this and has Obama GET RID OF ALL OF THESE RADICALS he has unlawfully brought around him”
#1 Obama is a Democrat
#2 Byrd is another Democrat
#3 Byrd will do nothing that could cost him (or his party) anything.
Not that a Republican in the same situation would.
Term limits – term limits – term limits
#39 – What if Byrd (rightly) sees that Obama’s lunacy threatens to take down the entire Democrat party?
Meanwhile the media continues to sit around in a circle jerk and feed us puff pieces about celebrity nonsense. Hell, this blog has more real news than the networks, NYT, etc. give us. America is in huge danger here.
#40 Toxic Asshead said “What if Byrd (rightly) sees that Obama’s lunacy threatens to take down the entire Democrat party?”
When Slick Willy got himself caught in a wringer I sort of expected some (not all) Democrats (including Byrd) to step up to the plate (not that I wanted President Algore). But, they closed ranks and now he is a hero – a rich one, at that. So, do I expect that Byrd might do the right thing? Not really. He is a party man, pure and simple.
But, false hope is better than no hope at all.
term limits – term limits – term limits
37 what do you mean next president? its pbama for life man, game over.
Slightly OT but how can any rational human being listen to Glenn Beck. He’s the phoney’s phoney. I will say this, he can make himself cry on cue (or is it some kind of tech trick, I don’t know)
Van Jones? Who cares, he’s gone.
The thing that took Jones out is freedom of speech. Jones used his freedom of speech to say what he said and he did what he did and when somebody (Beck) used their freedom of speech to and went to the trouble of making people aware of what Jones had said and done was Jones was out leaving the question of why he’d ever been in unanswered.
The problem isn’t with Beck. He did his job even if he is a nut case. The question is as others noted what happened to the rest of people that claim to be reporters and in fact act like an arm of the Radical side of the Democrat party.
If you want to know what’s going on you have to watch Beck and Fox even if you don’t agree with them because the rest of these people won’t report the news. They filter the news and give you their edited version of it.
To few people own to many media outlets.
“If you want to know what’s going on you have to watch Beck and Fox even if you don’t agree with them because the rest of these people won’t report the news. They filter the news and give you their edited version of it.”
deowll, I truly feel sorry for you. While I agree with you that the cable “news” outlets are biased to one view point or another, it’s absolutely ludicrous to exempt Fox (the worst offender) from that category.
What ever happened to independant thought?
#44 – Exactly. Beck and Hannity and others are over the top at times and difficult to sit through. I don;t agree with all their views and I doubt there are that many in 100% agreement.
The point though, is these people have research staffs that dig into this stuff and find facts. You can discount their viewpoint and simply listen to the facts and decide for yourself what they mean.
If you only deal with the MSM, you would believe there are no controversies at all. How many people on this blog even just said they never heard of Van Jones? How many had never heard of Jerehmia Wright? Integrity no longer has a place in the MSM.
#44 Well, I can give you names of the radical arm of the Dem party:
Oliver Stone: Serving as PR extraordinaire for third world country’s dictators, putting down the US in the process.
Danny Glover, Sean Penn & the likes: Doing the same thing as Stone, only a little less tracktion.
Those are just the loudests
Wow! Why wasn’t he the candidate?
