Finally, the beginning of scrutiny.                                 click here to subscribe to the eddobloggo RSS feedsubscribe via RSS


The left's regular whipping boys -- radio talk hosts and Conservative columnists and bloggers -- were summarily dismissed last spring and summer when we leaned heavily on the questionable personal and political associations of then-candidate Barack Obama. 

So eager to buy into the "change" scam were 57% of the nation's voters and most of the mainstream media that they were able to blow off warnings about Obama's leftist voting record and his choice of preachers, power brokers and nefarious friends.  It didn't really matter what he had done prior to his political life and whether he was who he claimed to be.

"Organizing Chicago communities is pretty much the same thing as being a mayor or a small-state governor." 

"Rev. Wright, Tony Rezko and the Ayers were just friendly stepping stones...they'll never be part of the administration of this historic candidate once he becomes president."

"If the mainstream media had something on him they would have been all over it by now."

"The alternative is four more years of Bush/Cheney." 

Don't you wish you had a buck for every time you heard one of those talking points during the 2008 campaign?

With that kind of carte blanche plus a bullet-proof Congress going for him, is it any wonder that the executive orders and 30+ czar appointments began the moment the inaugural ball tuxedo got hung out for the White House dry cleaner?  Who could resist pushing the envelope in a scenario like that?

Well, the un-vetted -- or worse yet, vetted and accepted anyway -- Green Jobs Czar, Van Jones, has been forced to resign after a video surfaced in which he called opponents of President Obama’s legislative agenda a--holes. 

Earlier, Jones had signed a petition suggesting that former President George W. Bush willfully let the 9/11 attacks happen.  There are other videos wherein Jones uses foul language to demean non-Marxist whites.

The blank check has been spent.  The ability to profit from every crisis was already in jeopardy as a result of the president's lack of leadership and mishandling of nearly everything, including his own socialized medicine initiative. 

But now the Emanuel Doctrine has been neutralized as a result of being caught out, at best, by Obama's shoddy vetting procedures; at worst by intentionally appointing avowed communists and apparent racists to his administration.

The beginning of scrutiny could be the beginning of the end for the most dictatorial president in history.  He may actually be forced to provide some of the transparency that he has so hypocritically promised us.

 

Left-overs:

"I think it [Jones' resignation] is a loss for the country.

Howard Dean, Former Democrat Party Chairman

 

"Absolutely not -- this was Van Jones' own decision."

David Axelrod on NBC when asked if the president ordered the resignation.

 

At a Labor Day union rally in Cincinnati Obama announced his selection of Ron Bloom, a member of his auto industry task force, as senior counselor for manufacturing policy -- a/k/a Manufacturing Czar.

Yes, we need to vet out each and every slimeball in the administration so the American people can see firsthand the type of fleas this Dog has.

eddo, first, you know he was vetted, because they were bragging how they got him to join the administration. Second he is already telling anyone who will listen that he was brought down by lies and distortion. They played his own words from speeches he wrote, and interviews that he chose. So, I guess he was saying he was lying and distorting things? Or is it that the videos were edited? I just cannot keep the lies in Washington straight anymore. I wonder how the mainstream press will handle his resignation, considering none of them mentioned there were any questions being raised.

So many people are acting shocked about Van Jones, and the funny thing is the real shock would be if our president actually chose a non-radical. That would cause a major uproar, as people tried to understand the folly of a decision like that.

Where did these videos come from?  Opponents of President  Obama's programs ARE a--holes!  Bush II was told when he became president that Al Qaeda was planning an attack on the U.S.  What did he do about it?  The trade center had been attacked before.  Did no one think the attack would be completed later?  Nobody in Obama's administration, including the president, is a Socialist, Marxist or Communist.  The only brainwashing going on in this country for the last several years has been done by the Repubs.  Fortunately, most of us have awoken from their cruel and vicious spell

I remember when the "in the tank for Obama" lib news media made statements such as: Obama is "Brilliant", "Scary Smart" etc.

IMO, For such a "supposed to be" Brilliant, Scary Smart person to anoint people like Van Jones, and "MARK LLOYD"
(another Black Nationalist white-hating communist) to Czar-dom, I firmly believe Obama's dealing with very serious bouts of Lissencephaly. He needs meds ASAP before he totally destroys America!

[Las cucarachas odian la luz del sol.  Not to change the subject, but didn't they used to say those same things about the First Lady of Pants Suits?  Now she's just one of the roaches with a transparent cabinet job -- which means she has no power whatsover because policy-making is reserved for the secret czars. -ED]


One down and how many more "czars" to go. 0bama's creation of this puppet government that intrudes in everyone's lives is proving to be most problematic for him. Before it's over I want the 0bama's resignation!

[Now that the sunlight is scattering the roaches the "they snooze/you lose" media may just find the guts to do the probing they didn't do before he got elected. Personally, I think that once the Congress flips back to a reasonable balance, impeachment is more likely than resignation.  Either way, stamp this commie's birth certificate NULL AND VOID! -ED]


Jones is a symptom of the sickness, one of the many symptoms. Most have been ignored, maybe now more light will be shed on the disease.

All that has been done is take an aspirin for the fever......The republicans and the democrats had better wake up and join together and realize this is NOT a bipartisan problem. This is a NATIONAL PROBLEM.  We (the American people) have been lied to and duped and now we are in deep kimchee. One has to realize there are certain elements...that are also left wing RADICALS and want to see this country changed to at the VERY LEAST a european pseudo-socialist democracy, sorta like the one in Venezuela. I realize Venezuela isn't in europe but it fits this bill. Wake up people we are being attacked by enemies from within (domestic enemies).

[Yes, and among those would be the president and many in his administration and in Congress.  But that's what I've been saying since the 2008 campaign, so you are preaching to the choir here. -ED]


I think Jones will call into question the vetting process by the Obama administration...but unless something more drastic comes up I'm afraid its going to continue SSDD or same story different day.

The emperor obama is showing his lack of substance. When Robert Byrd questions the Constitutionality of the czar system, hope may be on the horizon. The progressives are forgetting the same tool they used, the internet, to organize and be sucessful in 2008 is working against them. The 57% are now waking up and are below 50%. The People need to stay strong and not give in to the lamestream media and its obama syncophants.
