Jones out

I love these quotes from disgraced, resigning politicos. They’re always the same.

“On the eve of historic fights for health care and clean energy, opponents of reform have mounted a vicious smear campaign against me,” Jones said in his resignation statement. “They are using lies and distortions to distract and divide.”

More.

    Good riddance Mr. Jones.

    Watch as Jones will soon whip out several cards: The victim card, the race card, the capitalists are pigs card, etc.

    Glenn Beck will also be smeared by the left in unrelenting attacks. I’m sure he is now on the top of the watch list, and will be labeled a hate monger and racist.

      I don’t get why the discussion of Van Jones is continually referred to as a series of “attacks”. Quoting a man, playing video and audio of his speeches, informing of organizations he is affiliated with, and exposing petitions he has signed is hardly an attack. It is investigative report, something that is shocking that a bunch of bloggers and a conservative commentator did while the mainstream media picked then thumbed their noses.

        That’s the essential difference between the left and the right: The right use facts and the left’s own words; the left use, well, nothing really.

    Wow! Was not expecting that this morning as I irritated my kiddos with interrupting cartoons for a milosecond to surf the Sunday morning news. Came straight here in hoping it would be posted. Thanks Jason! I am cautiously optimistic that the voicing of our opposition just might be worth something.

    Let’s keep it up and keep it clean! Great job everyone! Maybe our Hope and Change will be better than what the “others” offer.
