Taken away in a van

The New York Times tells Frit that “Van Jones resigned as the White House’s environmental jobs “czar” on Saturday, after weeks of controversy over his past comments and affiliations had slowly escalated”.

This, despite the fact that, as was pointed out elsewhere shortly before this resignation, a Nexis search revealed that the total number of words about the Van Jones controversy in the same New York Times was 0. Same results applied to the Washington Post, NBC Nightly News, ABC World News, CBS Evening News, etc. etc..

But, of course, the real issue is that only a president who is as big a joker as depicted in that now famous portrait could have given a job in government to such a clown with such a clown’s background in the first place. For this reason that individual shall be referred to as the “Multimillionaire White Mohammedan Joker President” on this site from now on.
