I know; I don't know what's become of me either. And it's even worse than you think: I also root openly for the Hipster Grifter. #brangelina

What I love even more is that we're collectively ignoring Brangelina and Madonna & focusing on Bjork and Bai Ling. Good job, @all. #brangelina

And @snugbug: Dear God, that TV clip is nine kinds of fermented awesome. I may have been wrong about Bjork after all.

Yeah, that defense makes no more sense than yours of Van Jones, Pareene. So stop it. You're embarrassing yourself.

Or were you making a better point than that?

ANYONE who disagrees with anything for the next 3 (7, maybe!) years is a racist.
Why even debate it?

This guy, four years ago, signed his name to a document accusing the US government of killing thousands of US citizens as a pretext for going to war. Regardless of your opinion of the action, you have to realize that will raise concerns...

This is a good deal of webpage devoted to Mr. Van Jones. Probably more than he deserves. (And I love how Pareene colors this bio as if he and Van Jones are old pals).
He's still gonna' get fired. The more interesting story is can someone get the boot when no one else outside of Faux is covering it?
Magically one day Charlie Gibson will announce: Some guy named Van Jones stepped down today as Green Jobs Czar. Up next: More on the Michael Jackson funeral...

"..the petition that was circulated today, I do not agree with this statement and it certainly does not reflect my views now or ever."
But he agreed to have his name added. That is a fact.
"An administration source said Jones says he did not carefully review the language in the petition before agreeing to add his name. "
Worst excuse ever.
He is a Yale law graduate. Don't they teach them to read the full contract before they sign?
He may not be a radical anymore, but he and the WH should have know better than to bring up someone with this baggage and what seems to be a loose tongue. It just gives the radical right more ammunition and quotes. Isn't Biden keeping Gibbs busy enough?

Of course, he's probably spoken in front of thousands of audiences over the years, so his enemies will always be able to find ammunition.

Not that he's wrong...

If the administration fires him, it looks like they're taking a hit from Beck... and, in turn, they may lend credence to his other crazy ramblings. But if they don't fire Van Jones, they look like they're coddling yet another radical and the outrage over 'birthers' seems a bit silly...
What to do...

Oh it's easy. Let him stay and wait for the nutjobs to latch on to the next cause du jour.

You should take a tour of FoxNation.com sometime.
