Thank you, Glenn Beck.

Thank you, Glenn Beck. By helping force the resignation of Van Jones, you have done a great service to your country. But in the exact opposite way than what you intended.

Your vile and vicious smear campaign has helped reverse one of the worst examples of miscasting since John Wayne took on the role of Genghis Khan in The Conqueror.

Don't get me wrong: Van Jones was the best person for the job he just gave up. But the job was not the best use of Van Jones.

Contrary to the media caricature, the real Van Jones is a thoughtful leader who knows how to use words to move people to action. To stick him behind a desk, working out the details of tax credits for green jobs -- incredibly important though the job is -- was never the best use of his unique and abundant skills.

This is not an attempt to put a positive spin on an ugly episode. I've actually been feeling this way ever since Van told me he was taking this job.

2. The Becks and Company continue their desperate attempt to regain the Power lost
during the past 2 elections..

They bend the rules to suit their goals...never mind the National Consequences

They Lie Cheat Steal

They moan and groan with negative nits found on the ground level where their minds and brains are...

Never with positives...forever looking for the bad, they miss the answers to our collective Society...this has been really exposed during this past 2 elections and more so in recent weeks.

Glenn is now viewed as a Traitor to this Nation for not helping the National Recovery....he is an obstructionist and therefore
unpatriotic and unAmerican....

He is the essence of HATE
