Van Jones rallies Hawaii crowd in support of green projects, against Wall Street

Published March 21, 2012 | FoxNews.com

Van Jones is returning to the spotlight as a green jobs cheerleader, hosting a rally Tuesday night organized to promote a "green" bank to finance alternative energy programs.

According to the Hawaii Reporter, Jones gave the keynote address at Tuesday's rally, put together by groups who want the state to create a "State Partnership Bank."

Among the legislative proposals is one to have the bank be led by the governor, union leaders and board members appointed by the Democrat-dominated legislature -- raising concern among Republicans that it would facilitate taxpayer handouts for well-connected alt energy businesses.

Jones, the former green jobs czar under the Obama administration who left following several controversies involving his remarks and personal activism, reportedly did not speak specifically about the bank in his address. His remarks focused on inequality in America, as he lambasted what he described as "dream killers in America."

He said some, "especially on Wall Street," are breaking the rules and leaving those who work hardest behind. "That's killing the dream," he said.

We'll call it the OPM bank (Other People's Money). When all the investments fail we will be long gone with our share and the government will pick up the tab for the bailout. Sounds like a democrat plan, doesn't it? Will Jon Corzine be CEO again?

On Fox Nation, there is the 1965 Paul Harvey story. Then, we see this story on this pathetic fool. No wonder Mr. Harvey was dismayed; he forsaw these pathetic fools finding their way into the Administration. Mr. Harvey was a Great American indeed.

Anytime you hear or see the words "Green" coming from a liberal, just change it to "distribution of wealth from you pocket to mine!" It's a shame how nature is going to suffer by the communists hijacking the term. One example is stop offshore drilling in America. Right, because the earth is going to be cleaner if the oil comes from a foreign source tha has no environmental standards at all and has to be shipped across thousands of miles of ocean. Who is really Green?
