Yeah...baby, YEAH!

One more bites the dust. San Fran Chronicle

But truly damning.....from Chicago.....the Chicago way

White House officials never defended Jones, a prominent California
community activist, and took pains over the weekend to distance themselves from Jones' statements.

We should have some sort of betting system in place for predicting how often HOZ is going to make a thread such as this.

California has about 3 million "prominent" activists. Need more than that.

He was an appointee of Obama's. In charge of green energy I think. The right has been posting about his past for a while now. He seems to be another Reverend Wright judging by his view of 9/11 and white America's treatment of blacks. What is concerning is like Wright this guys views were almost certainly known by the President. The two most damaging pieces of information comes from a public petition accusing the government of knowing about 9/11 before hand and a rap CD that Jones helped produced and sang on. The lyrics on the CD could have been copied from one of Wright's sermons. The administration investigated Jones like all of their appointees before hiring him. It is unbelievable that they missed either the petition or the published recording. Obama mustn't have had a problem with either until the right found them and made some considerable noise.

As a believer of the theory "you can gamble on anything" I think I could be in charge of this.

Find it strange that none of these czars are vetted in anyway. Because they arent official govt members, just these randomly appointed czars, they dont need to be vetted by the senate. Its a good thing they dont have any power whatsoever.

Who is the poster on this forum that has all the consipracy theories - this guys i probably his hero.
