You did not suffer under the delusion that Democrats are ashamed of their America-haters, cretins, adulterers, racists, perjurers, thieves, tax cheats, and other criminals, did you?
Did you now?
September 6 – Van Jones resigns under pressure as Obama’s ‘Green Jobs Czar’.
September 9 – He’s back at the Center for American Progress, where he was previously a Senior Fellow.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that (NTTAWWT), of course.
Make no mistake. Van Jones is well taken care of. Just like Louis Caldera, the fall-guy for that Air Force One fly-over stunt over Lower Manhattan, who also now works at CAP. Tom Daschle is getting along just fine, as is Perjurin’ Bill Clinton. And don’t be surprised at all if convicted felon William Jefferson (D-LA) is well-taken care of once he’s done his time. He’ll land some fat-cat do-nothing job under some leftist umbrella group. No Democrat is ever shamed out of public life; they’re merely transferred to a less visible position from which to continue the same subversion.
CAP is not just *any* old think tank. It is Soros-backed and operated by Clintonista John Podesta. It has a 180-person staff, including at least 10 full-time bloggers, and a $27 million budget. Podesta ran Obama’s transition team. CAP holds policy briefings that are reportedly packed full of reporters and lobbyists who want to get a feel of where the administration is going. They write policy that ends up in these 1,000 page bills Obama keeps trying to shove down our throats.
It is hard to tell where the Obama administration stops and Center for American Progress starts, no? The sad, sick truth is that this nut-job America-hating 9/11 truther will be allowed to influence policy and legislation probably no less than from his position as Green Jobs Czar.
Democrats are primarily about the accumulation and securing of power to themselves, and the advancement of government control over the lives of America’s citizens. It is the fatal flaw of flatulent braying camels like John McCain, Lindsey Graham, Trent Lott, Bill O’Reilly, populists, independents, Rockefellerians, and RMSP toads that they assume otherwise, in spite of decades of finding “Kick Me’ signs on their backs and having the Lucy-Charlie Bown-football scene played out too many times to count.
When you understand the nature of the enemy, you have a chance to defeat it — loosely rendered Sun Tzu. Driving Van Jones out of his position was a good thing. Success breeds success, and conservatives are lately on a tremendous roll that may yet topple the entire leftist gameplan, from top to bottom. Just don’t think because we take down a leftist orc that he’s *actually* down until we see his rotting political corpse burning in a pile with the other ones.

CAP and Media Matters form War Room
katesmith (Diary) Tuesday, September 15th at 2:31PM EST (link)Plumline blog 3/10/09, CAP joins with Media Matters, forms War Room to focus on driving White House message. Has important morning call to fire up operatives. Will work with White House “only informally.” Probably still a tax exempt group. Media Matters is 501c3, Is possible they’re allowed to lobby and still be tax exempt with 501c4.

bk (Diary) Tuesday, September 15th at 2:48PM EST (link)the Dems sure find it convenient to overlook how Soros – the guy who destroyed more wealth worldwide in order to pad his own than perhaps anyone in history (including Madoff and Enron folks) – has his hands and his money EVERYWHERE accumulating more money and more power.
I Still Think It's A Victory
crosley (Diary) Tuesday, September 15th at 3:01PM EST (link)I agree these people won’t suffer monetarily, but making these groups and individuals “radioactive” is a victory. Politicians will be more skittish about working with them, it will be harder for them to get federal funding, donors will be more cautious, etc. You know it’s a victory for conservatives because liberals are foaming at the mouth.
At the end of the day, conservatives aren’t going to destroy left-wing radicalism, that’s not really feasible. There’s always going to be fringe groups and individuals. What conservatives can do is is keep these radicals out of office, make them pariahs, and win elections so we can craft sound public policy.
I agree with all of that
E Pluribus Unum (Diary) Tuesday, September 15th at 3:18PM EST (link)Flushing Van Jones was a major and unprecedented victory, because EVEN TO THIS DAY the major media have not covered it. It was all done by New Media, aka the conservative blogosphere + talk radio + FoxNews.
It does sting them and it will hurt. I just want to make sure we all know that you have to kill them, then kill the pieces, the burn the pieces.

themississippideacon (Diary) Tuesday, September 15th at 3:35PM EST (link)If everyone around you is just as radio active. The truth is, and this is fact, not defeatist, we are stuck between a party that loaths our values and priorities and one that seems afraid to stand up and say, “you can’t do that”. They do what they please, the dems, and the republicans seem to refuse to cry foul or hold them accountable.
