Bogus. BOGUS!!!
Van Jones resigned: WOOT!
The reasons being "past" radical, inflammatory comments he made (particularly calling republicans a-holes --or so the story says) and something about being tied to a 9/11 Truther group through a petition. (I have no idea what that one is, sorry.)
Far more accurately, I think it had a lot more to do with Glenn Beck outing him, by Jones' own words, as a self-described communist and exposing his radical views that he expressed as "long ago" as March 2009.
How does the AP/Obama Administration get back at him?
Fox News Channel host Glenn Beck repeatedly denounced Jones after a group the adviser co-founded, ColorofChange.org, led an advertising boycott against Beck's show to protest his claim that Obama is a racist.
Bogus. BOGUS!!!!!!!
Beck was on his case WAYYYY before any of this pathetic boycott stuff started! He hasn't been injured by it in the least!
Beck has been going on about Jones recently, but that's also because he's been focusing on the Czars of Obama's administration in general. He's been hot on the Czar trail since Obama started unConstitutionally appointing them!
LIES!
But you know what's even worse about that story is who wrote it.
That's right.
PHILIP ELLIOTT!! HOW COULD YOU BETRAY YOUR IMPARTIALITY?!!
I defended you. ;_;
ETA: OHHH!! Who was right? Look what they added:
"The president of Beck's media organization, Christopher J. Balfe, said the commentator had begun focusing on Jones' "radical beliefs" on July 16, before the group started taking on Beck."
Who knows Beck? 8)
Only slightly redeemed, Mr. Elliott. The implications are still there with the particular phrasing, and I saw that barb at republicans; still taking sides.
