Valerie Jarrett’s Show

Van Jones was not an isolated hire but a key cog in Obama’s chief diversity operative’s government-wide operation.

The White House shouldn’t expect the furor over Special Advisor for Green Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation at the White House Council on Environmental Quality Van Jones to go away just because he’s resigned, says a former Obama Administration transition team member, because “the same problems that they created with Jones’s hiring are there for others and they don’t seem to care about the political damage these people may inflict.”

According to several White House sources, Jones was hired for his “green jobs czar” positions over concerns raised by the White House Counsel’s Office, after Jones’s background materials came back with several of what were termed “inconsistencies” in the Standard Form 86 Questionnaire for National Security Positions.

When confronted with the 2004 9/11 truther petition by the White House communications staff, Jones, according to sources, initially blamed his staff at the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights. The petition was spun by the White House as Jones simply not having read the material closely. Within an hour of the White House statement with Jones’s apology, another document came to light indicating that Jones had helped organize a 2002 truther protest march in San Francisco. Jones, according to White House sources, denied any involvement. “It’s clear we [the White House] don’t know enough about him,” said a White House source in the Counsel’s office, who spoke on Saturday morning before Jones resigned, and did so anonymously in the hopes that information about concerns raised by the counsel’s office about Jones might push him out of the Administration.

The source inside the White House Counsel’s office says that their office had recently begun to look into whether Jones had recently had contact with this friends and former co-workers at Color for Change, the leftist group Jones helped to found, and which launched the advertiser boycott against Fox News host Glenn Beck. Color for Change ramped up its protest of Beck after he began attacking the Obama Administration’s “Czar” programs, including Jones. The White House legal office was also looking into the timing of a website that was launched late Friday, VanJones.net; earlier in the week the site had been “Under Construction.”

The counsel’s office places part of the blame on the Office for Intergovernmental Affairs and Public Engagement, which is overseen by Obama Senior Advisor and Assistant to the President Valerie Jarrett. Jones’s “czar” job was created by the OIAPE, and Jarrett interviewed Jones for the position. In speeches before far-left groups over the past five months, Jarrett touted Jones’s hiring, in part, because the groups, many of which count 9/11 truthers and radical environmentalists and anti-capitalists as members, were familiar with Jones’s brand of anti-Americanism and economic radicalism.

“This wasn’t simply Valerie Jarrett rubberstamping her guy,” says a White House source. “You don’t fill a position like this without his hire being approved at a couple of different levels at least.”

But Jarrett did view Jones as a critical member of the administration for her outreach efforts, in part, because he was so well known and respected in the radical-left world the administration is counting on to help with issues like health care and cap and tax, and, more importantly, campaign efforts in 2010.

Playing to those types is another reason Jarrett’s office approved the invitation of Jameel Jaffer, who runs the ACLU’s “national security project,” to the White House Ramadan dinner last week. Jaffer, a Canadian citizen, attended the dinner, which President Obama said was being held for American Muslims.

Jaffer is a cause célèbre to the far left for his career of litigating against the United States in support of terrorists and radical Islamists, and has proudly touted his awards from groups like CAIR.

“We had other names on the list for invitations, but Jarrett’s office wanted Jaffer in the room. We were told it was important,” says a White House source. “It was made clear that his presence was something senior folks here wanted to happen.”

Jaffer has filed lawsuits challenging the FBI’s “national security letter” authority, the constitutionality of warrantless wiretaps, and has been a leader in pushing for the shut down of Guantánamo Bay, and providing legal rights to terrorists held by the United States overseas in such countries as Iraq and Afghanistan. His efforts enabled the leaking of “torture photos” out of Iraq and Afghanistan, and some sources inside the Central Intelligence Agency believe he was one of the lawyers who provided legal advice to the Department of Justice to pursue an investigation into enhanced interrogation techniques used by the CIA.

“Given the groups Jarrett cultivates and keeps engaged, she needs to be able to point to people like Jones and Jaffer to keep our base happy. You saw the response we got from Jones resignation, [MSNBC host Keith] Olbermann went nuts online and will probably cover this smear campaign for a week. That’s probably one of the best outcomes we could hope for,” explains the former transition aide. “What Valerie is doing is no different than what Rove used to do with conservatives. She’d dealing with our Norquists and Limbaughs.”

Jarrett’s office isn’t just about hiring anti-American presidential senior staff or inviting them to posh official dinners at the White House, though. Jarrett’s office, according to White House sources, was influential in advocating for the creation of a “chief diversity officer” (CDO) at the Federal Communications Commission, as well as numerous other senior positions on regulatory and advisory commissions within the federal government bureaucracy. 

“One of the reasons they held off on nominating confirmable positions at agencies like the FCC was so the White House could look at the structure of those agencies and where they could create jobs more in line with the President’s thinking, so they create a post like diversity chief, and then we have a blueprint for the nominated chairs or staff directors to follow. That’s how we got [FCC CDO] Mark Lloyd,” explains a former Obama transition staffer.  

Lloyd’s job is, in part, to look for ways to create more “diversity” in media ownership, a policy approach that is viewed as a backdoor way to put in place a kind of “Fairness Doctrine.”

those who were awake before the election knew that Obama was a radical--the information was there in broad daylight including his own statements during the campaign as well as well known past associations. All of the czars are problematical for me because there is no accountability except to one man. Obama yearns for total power --this is who he is and this is the Democratic.

Richard Baker| 9.8.09 @ 7:57AM

The Kenyan wants a Politburo or Presidium with himself as Leonid Brezhnev. The problem is that the Kenyan doesn't have the proper eyebrows for the job.

Nick in Virginia| 9.8.09 @ 9:06AM

Martin J Smith is right-on in his comment above. 0bama is going to find ways around the Congress (even though it is controlled by the Democrats, not all of them agree with 0bama's policies, and Reid and Pelosi have both already said they don't work for him, so cooperation is obviously at a minimum).

But now that the MSM has had to follow Fox's lead on this one corrupt appointee (Jones), they can not ignore subsequent similar information about others when they get uncovered. So the Jones resignation is beginning to shed light on Jarrett, and all that she is doing. This can only hurt 0bama's "master plan".

Marc Jeric| 9.8.09 @ 9:36AM

For better understanding of what is happening to us let me translate:
1) community organizations were known in the USSR as local soviets and in the satelites as block committees;
2) What we call the White House czars were known in communist dictatorships as komissars.
Are the things getting clearer?

It amazes me that anyone is surprised by all this. Our state religion idolizes Diversity, Choice, Tolerance, Hope and Change. Implementing those beliefs is simply a function of Faith. Unfortunately for us all, that Faith is misplaced as it represents adherence to Central Planning and elitist (statist) power over free markets.

President Obi-One, aka Al Naqis, is simply following through with his pledges to "fundamentally remake America". We got what we asked for, eh?

All you have to do is check Van Jones background and see what his perspective are. I did check and indeed he is radical. I am disappointed that Obama made his administration into a laughing stock.

You can see how to do this in the videos, but basically you need to jump up when the Hydra is about to strike. He will rear one of his heads back to attack and his eyes will bulge out. When this happens, jump up in the air and then try to land on top of his head. That head will get knocked out. When all five heads get knocked out, the Hydra will be asleep and you can click on him to get one of the scales. Poptropica I’ll have a full written walkthrough very soon, but in the meantime, here are some answers to some of the frequently asked questions about Mythology Island. Having trouble? Post a question in the comments and I’ll try to answer it!
Getting Hercules to Help You

Hercules won’t help you until you have all five items from Zeus’ quest. Once you have the five items, bring them to Athena. Zeus will appear and steal them. The big jerk! Once this happens, talk to Athena and she will tell you that Hercules will help you. You’ll need to have the magic mirror from Aphrodite because Hercules doesn’t want to have to walk. He’s so lazy!
Getting the Hydra Scale

They actually think that the Lemming Brigade is too mentally challenged to see that Sherrod firing blamed on Breitbart is an obvious fraud. This is the administration that shoves health care through and puts a Stimulus Bill through - both contrary to public oinion and doesn't care about the damage that the people know it will do to the US. They want US to believe that they cared about Breitbart or Beck. Audacity of HOPE that the people who elected Obama president are still acting like mentally challenged analysts. It is obvious with the 10% unemployment and incredibly poor Gulf oil response and increasing national debt that this administration is either inept or INTENTIONALLY DESTROYING FREE ENTERPRISE AMERICA! It is obvious to me by the people in power that the latter is the case. They have inflicted far too much damage to not intend to do it.
“The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.”

After reading this article, I truely wonder how many closet communists are in this administration? If Joseph McCarthy was alive today, he would have had a field day with this bunch, and then all the progressives, and The New York Times could cry foul until hell freezes over.

I completely agree with the above comment, the internet is without a doubt growing into the most important medium of communication across the globe and its due to sites like this that ideas are spreading so quickly.
