Van's Line: "
You can't grasp the full craziness of Van Jones, Obama's
now-resigned 'green jobs czar' (actual job title: 'Special
Advisor on Green Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation for the White
House Council on Environmental Quality'), unless you watch his
speeches on YouTube.
In a nutshell, along with his anti-capitalism, Marxism, and
anti-white racism, Jones' big idea is that we should knock down
our prisons and create green jobs by having the nation's
murderers and rapists come over to caulk our windows.
Jones describes U.S. prisons as 'slave ships on dry land,' a
'punishment industry' that's disproportionately victimizing
people of color and profiting from America's ongoing 'racist
war.'
One of the victims of that racist war, trapped unfairly on a
'slave ship' in Philly, according to Jones, is Mumia Abu-Jamal.
He's the former community organizer and 'Lieutenant of
Information' for the Black Panther Party who was convicted of the
Dec. 9, 1981, murder of Philadelphia police officer Daniel
Faulkner.
Jones asserts that whites are the actual violent ones, shooting
up whole schools, not just one person at a time. 'You've never
seen a Columbine done by a black,' says Jones. 'Never.'
Perhaps. But the U.S. Department of Justice, totaling up all the
murders nationwide -- not just what happened on one day in 1999
-- reports that the offending rate for blacks who commit murder
is more than seven times higher than the rate for whites; the
homicide-victimization rate for blacks is six times higher than
the rate for whites; and 94 percent of black murder victims are
killed by blacks.
In any case, Jones' green-justice idea is to 'build a pipeline
from the prison economy to the green economy,' an innovative
solution that allows us to simultaneously achieve several major
goals. The 'historical victims' trade in their AK-47s for
caulking guns, the piggy public uses less energy, the polar bears
get back their non-melting ice, and the abused occupants of the
land-based slave ships will get out from behind bars and be
pocketing a public sector 'living wage' by applying
weatherstripping from a nonprofit government factory.
As Investor's Business Daily points out, Jones may not
have been truly original in coming up with this scheme: 'In his
2006 memoir, President Obama proposed government-subsidized green
jobs 'to hire and train ex-felons on projects' such as
'insulating homes and offices to make them energy-efficient.'
Labor Secretary Hilda Solis, who worked with Jones in California
as a congresswoman, has already put such plans into motion.'
Jones explains that it was in the aftermath of the Rodney King
riots in California that he became a communist. As he told the
East Bay Express in 2005: 'I was a rowdy nationalist on
April 28 (1992), and then the verdicts came down on April 29. By
August, I was a communist.'
In the same interview, Jones explains how he developed a soft
spot for felons, the future weatherstrippers of America: 'I met
all these young radical people of color -- I mean really radical:
communists and anarchists. And I was, like, 'This is what I need
to be a part of.' I spent the next 10 years of my life working
with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a
revolutionary.'
And so we ended up with a self-described red as a 'green czar,' a
special adviser to the president, set to distribute some $30
billion or so of our tax dollars in ways that he determines would
save the world from an Earth-killing capitalist system.
Jones outlined his strategy for a green and collectivist utopia
last year during an interview with leftist Uprising Radio in Los
Angeles: 'The green economy will start off as a small subset' of
a 'complete revolution' against 'gray capitalism' and toward a
'redistribution of all wealth.'
And how's the mundane caulking of windows fit in? It's just the
way to get Van Jones into the White House as a 'czar' of
something that sounds nice -- a way to get guys like Abu-Jamal
back on the street with our money in their wallets, ready to do
some real community organizing on a grand scale.
In one of his more honest moments, Jones explains the ruse, the
use of 'green' as a deceptive maneuver to destroy the existing
American system: 'We are going to push it and push it until it
becomes the engine for transforming the whole society.'
