how does he expect to create all these jobs? by strangling whale oil revenues until the only option left is non-whale energy? how will we train all these people? imagine the shift of resources. the amount of jobs lost due to whale oil's death. all the other industries affected by this shift. Van Jones is a stupid ass, only concerned with moving forward with his anti whale oil agenda, and his own vision, without concern for the well-being of others who aren't whalers.

@mistiminott Oh, snap! I'm speechless. That whirlwind of right wing intellectual confrontation was just too much for me to handle. I will shut my "pie muncher" right away. Sorry for the inconvenience.

@nathanc1986 Please shut your pie muncher.

Van Jones is a god send

There's a stigma on this guy that I just don't understand. I thought this host was a frigid dismissive cunt. She dismissed him on every question/answer. And then suspiciously called him a "social activist." In white speak, she's saying he's an angry uppity black man. I'm not black, but I can see it written all over her face and in the tone of her voice. Why can't we appreciate what the man is saying without placing him in some fear based stereotype.

sam tookie williams never won a Nobel peace prize. That's a lie and you know it. He was nominated! He was nominated 5 times. Being nominated has very little meaning considering the hundreds of thousands of eligible nominators. Practically any college professor will do. IT'S NOT LIKE BEING THE RUNNER UP! These creeps like Jones lay dormant, buried in academia until they get a book deal and start the lecture tour. They then go straight to politics having  never worked a day in their lives.

Got any data on how many green jobs they have created thus far? He had 30 billion and wha, 7 months to get the green ball rolling, so where are the green jobs? Hint: Van Jones wasn't about creating green jobs. He was about social revolution. He said so many many times. He even split white environmentalists against minority environmentalists. The socialists movement has co-oped the environmental movement the way the gays tried unsuccessfully to co-op the black community.
