A Word to the Wise About Liberals

Think about this. Van Jones is a Yale Law School graduate (just like Glenn Reynolds) who according to a 2005 interview, had already landed a D.C. job after graduation but instead decided to move to the San Francisco area to become involved in a radical protest movement. He subsequently received a Rockfeller Foundation fellowship and, eventually, landed a “czar” job at the White House.

And yet, somehow, despite all his success, this Ivy League-educated Fortunate Son sees nothing but misery and oppression everywhere. Am I the only one who finds this bizarre?

The President of the United States of America sat for 20 years in the pews of a racist, anti-American church; the first lady only became proud of America once her husband started to have a shot at the White House; the Vice President is an ignorant fool; the Speaker of the House states that the CIA is always lying to Congress; the Majority Leader of the Senate has stated that everything he’s done since 2004 has been geared towards getting re-elected in 2010; the Chairman of the House Ways and Means committee is a tax cheat; the Secretary of Homeland Security worries that our troops might be terrorists-in-waiting; the Chairman of the House Subcommittee on Defense has used defense funds to have an airport named after himself; one senior member of the Senate Committee on Appropriations was appointed to his spot by Senate Majority Leader Lyndon B. Johnson in 1959; the Secretary of the Treasury is a tax cheat…Van Jones? He fits right in there – nothing odd about him at all.

This is liberalism, boys and girls – its all bad; based on a false premise, it can’t do other than go completely wrong.
