“Green Jobs Czar” Appointed by Obama: Communist Van Jones
Posted By Vicki McClure Davidson on July 20, 2009
Self-proclaimed radical and Communist, Van Jones, appointed by Pres. Obama as 'green jobs czar'
Whoa, there… another czar? A man who is a self-proclaimed Communist and who has been arrested… possibly TWICE? Don’t we have enough czars by now? How many did old Russia have back in the day at any given time? I’m thinking it was just one, and if he was married, then there would be one czarina. This new “green jobs” one was appointed back in March… somehow I missed it. More czar-tastic shadow government-bloating audacity from POTUS.
Excerpt from The Examiner:
Van Jones, ‘Green Jobs Czar’, a self-described ‘communist’ arrested during Rodney King riots
By Kathy Shaidle
July 17, 2009Van Jones is President Barack Obama’s newly appointed “Green Jobs Czar”.
Jones’ official title is Special Advisor on Green Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation for the White House Council on Environmental Quality.
The 41-year-old Yale Law School graduate and civil rights lawyer is also the founder of California’s Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, “a non-profit agency for justice, opportunities and peace.”
Sounds idyllic, but Jones’ past isn’t so pastoral.
The Ella Baker Center was connected to STORM (Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement), a “multi-racial activist collective with Marxist influences” with which Jones was involved.
In 1992, Van Jones founded another STORM project, Bay Area PoliceWatch, a “hotline and lawyer-referral service for victims and survivors of police abuse.” This is fitting, perhaps, since Jones was himself arrested and detained briefly during a protest after the Rodney King verdict that same year…

From NewsBusters: Fox News Notes Communist Past of the ‘Green Jobs’ Czar
I think it’s pretty instructive what his past is…it’s the same sort of philosophy, the idea that government ought to be reordering society in accordance with some utopian vision that failed with communism and socialism, and will fail with this green jobs idea.

About the author
This action by Obama only reinforces the fact that he holds little if any regard for American democratic values.
He is a smooth (monitor aided) speaker who has issues with race as well as counrty.
Cannot believe the American are not waking up to his thinking.
Can a real Christian ever profess any alliegance with a communist period.
They are worst than an atheist.
Well said, George.
However, I do believe more Americans are starting to realize what we have in this president. His approval numbers are dropping and support for his socialized health care has diminished this past week. So, keep spreading the knowledge and information among your family and friends. Knowledge is power. The light shining on his agenda is becoming harsher, and the mainstream media is actually starting to question his judgment and his plans to “remake America.” Some conservative senators, like DeMint, are speaking out about his power grab efforts to turn America into a socialist, government-run nanny state.
If only we could easily remove the shadow government of czars that he has created & grown to mammoth proportions.
But for the skin or our teeth did we finally see what is going on. No one saw this with what happened to smokers? I don’t care if you never smoked a cigarette in your life and hated smoking, did you see what the government did? Wake UP! Replace smokers with Jews in Nazi Germany. Slowly, methodically they were demonized and were relegated to less than worthy; hence legislation that hurt them didn’t matter. I stood up for them because I saw what was happening but the sheep that didn’t like them or thought it might be a good idea went along with all the laws that turned law abiding citizens into criminals and outcasts. It won’t matter what it is, there will be another category; fat people, sick people, or whatever that will replace them. Wake Up!
