Yes, Van Jones is gone. After more than a week of Glen Beck calling him a communist, Van Jones just couldn’t take it anymore and resigned. It’s a very good thing…I’m glad he’s gone. I’m a bit concerned about who’ll take his place, though. But there’s a lesson in it for all of us. This is from Fox News<\/a>;<\/p>\n

Jones resigned late Saturday following mounting criticism over his past statements and associations. The tipping point came when it was discovered that he signed a petition in 2004 supporting the “9\/11 truther” movement, which believes the Bush administration may have been complicit in the Sept. 11 terror attacks. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I guess every side has a line it won’t cross. On the Left, they’re afraid to look like cranks if they are Truthers. On the right, it’s Birthers. Birthers have”indisputable proof” just like Truthers have – however it’s not so”indisputable” that anyone wants to stake their careers on defending one of them in public.<\/p>\n

Even though the Left is in charge and they can do whatever they want, the Democrats, the party of murdering unborn babies and warehousing the elderly, discovered that trutherism isn’t something they want to legitimize with the remnants of their reputation.<\/p>\n

So I’m guessing there’s a lesson in there for some of us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
