@whodatsed dont forget to add bush clinton bush reagan into that mix you missed out them guys too if you missed the fact that every U.S president has sold you out for the last 30 years.
and unlike fox news and the right wing he speaks in positives not just the cynical critiquing that has recently come from our esteemed republican friends many of whom rely just on denying and denial, ex: such as evolution (or should i say creative design) and namely global warming even those republicans who critique this party of "denial" such as john huntsman, who i greatly admire, are being shut down by the majority of the party embodied by a bunch of cynical fucks
van jones is an idiot with obama sex dreams and obession. you are an idiot and so is your yet dreamm of obama getting another term. are you reallt that stupid? yes. and so is anyone that's listening to you...
Very good speach!!! first time ive heard this guy talk but hes amakes alot of good points...yeah why the fuck are we still using fossil fuels (dead energy) when we can be harnessing the suns energy for free without harming things... SHIFT THE POWER!!!! why do people resort to alcohol to solve problems... smoke a joint, meditate... stay green, keep it clean !
Really?? You trolls certainly didn't watch the same video that I just watched ~ this is a non-partisan issue that affects EVERYONE. There is no "left is good ... right is bad" here ... it's simply SHIFTING THE POWER to the PEOPLE of this country from the select few who currently have the power and want to KEEP the power at the EXPENSE of the people. You trolls ARE the people, too ... even if you think you are not. He is trying to help you, too!!! Duh!
Very compelling speaker, but incredibly deceiving and divisive. He's not about unity at all, but about reinforcing an US versus THEM mentality in his listeners. By citing FOX news, the Tea Party, etc., and then setting them up as the Enemy, he sets up a false paradigm that basically says, "Left is good... Right is bad..." An animal farm mentality in which all animals are equal, but some are more equal than others..." I give him 4 Stars as Grand Manipulator of folks and facts.
An anti-everything that supports a Republic. Supported by George Soros and all who are anti-American. They want to remake America, so he ash cans his old clothes and head band for a suit and tie and lowers his voice and the sheeples stand in awe of him. Buy into the race baiting, rich-hating and the power will be shifted, Van Jones will one day be a person who will see to your supression. He lies and the clueless buy his lingo jingo hook line and sinker. Shamfull!
A leftist radical who wants to "shift the power". He" likes rich people but they tend to live up in the hills." Class warfare is not welcomed in the United States of America libs.
@pixelpetal now this charlatan is pushing the 'occupy [fill in the blank]' movements. These Useful Idiots don't even know that he is a trained professional at manipulating dumbasses to bring about a tyranny.
Van Jones is a Marxist thug. Google STORM manifesto for a real eye opener. Google Elena Kagan's 1981 Princeton thesis and things will begin to come into focus. The foolish liberal children have elected a Marxist agitator for President.
@7beers When you use words like demagoguery in a pejorative manner you're killing the debate. You don't use political arguments why you don't prefer his policy ideas on in this case climate change but rather those of another (interest-)group, party or specific person, but you label it with a word to make it seem like debating with him about the issue would be the wrong thing to do. It's like calling Obama a socialist, or Geert Wilders in my country a fascist. To summarize what I mean in 1 phrase
@TheRacistsMustDie Fair enough, but on a youtube forum, I don't necessarily have the space to adequately develop an idea. Nor the time, for that matter. Don't assume that just because I summarized my reaction to his speech in one sentence that that means that I don't have the wherewithal to explain my stance. If I have more time in the near future, I'll do just that.
@7beers :"He (Van Jones/Obama/Wilders) is a demagogue/socialist/fascist, thus everything he stands for is repulsive & should be opposed without debate". I hope I have been able to make you clear what I meant.
Van Jones, founding member of Green for All, host of PowerShift 2011. I love his line about Martin Luther King being 25 years old and the Founders being in their 20s and 30s... Shift the Power!
Stop fueling our society on death and start using living things!
Van Jones, founding member of Green for All, host of PowerShift 2011. I love his line about Martin Luther King being 25 years old and the Founders being in their 20s and 30s... Shift the Power!
On 311 the World woke up and decided NO NUKES and NO FLUKES. We ask for the END OF THE NUCLEAR NIGHTMARE ON EARTH. We DEMAND THE END OF TOXIC POWER SYSTEMS ON EARTH. Let us BAN HYDRO FRACKING IN AMERICA as this POISONS MILLIONS OF GALLONS OF WATER Let us DEMAND THE END OF THE MILITARY INDUSTRIAL CORPORATE COMPLEX NOW. Let us DEMAND THE END OF ENDLESS WARS ON HUMANKIND
Amen, brother! I've never heard anyone put it so well!
And I also agree that that kind of treason, if conscious, should be punishable by death! Fucking traitors...can't wait until Bush, Cheney, and Rove are in fucking GitMo where they fucking belong!
@alwayssmile4u66 So-called "conservatives" have destroyed this nation with their "free trade", "free market" treason. They are the redistributionists: redistributing costs of doing business by way of corporate subsidies, tax policies that promote offshoring of U.S. high tech jobs making worthless peoples' investment in their education, road building & other infrastructure building that subsidizes developers, pollution, and worker injury and death. That economic treason deserves a death sentence.
@FreedomInAmerica - Rather than attack the man's character, spend a few minutes to research his positions and then attack (or defend) his policy points. Character assassination does nothing to further this nation and actually reflects on the weakness of the respondent's (your) position. Please, provide a reasoned response based upon policy.
@FreedomInAmerica Attacking climate change does not mean we to adopt Communism. Rigth-wingers are so arrogant on every issue of political importance, especially the environment. Every credible scientist says that we must stop global warming within the next ten years to preserve a livable planet by the end of this century. Yet the Koch Brothers fund think tanks that deny climate change and brainwash large parts of the general public. Which keeps us hooked on foreign oil.
Ahh nothing like the moronic comments below from Teabaggers choking on the Kock brother's nuts. Keep it up retards. You might still be able to dismantle what's left of this fleeting republic.
Give MF housing owners tax breaks for installing solar and wind and/or allowing helping to build individual raised gardens. Foodstamps and other help to buy seeds/ dirt/ manure etc means owning more resources not more constant begging.
"Where are the jobs?" My question exactly. The GOP campaigned on job creation during the 2010 mid-term elections and has done nothing to create a single job since elected. They've certainly done plenty to cripple public workers, women's right to choose, and public media though. Awesome.
I've never heard so much ignorance in my entire life. Get real jobs people! Oh wait, there aren't any. Thanks BHO
