Thump-thump, THUMP-THUMP! That’s the now familiar sound of another of Obama’s intimates being thrown under the bus. Van Jones has gone to join Reverend Wright and Father Pfleger in the happy hunting grounds of the politically congenial but overly loquacious. Some of Obama’s stalwarts on the left are getting restive. Apparently no one ever told them that the Illinois Democratic machine doesn’t exist to crank out noble idealists. Alas, poor Jones was caught on video committing the unpardonable political faux pas of acting like himself, or, to put it in the vernacular of the left, he was “smeared.”
