I was just thinking that I would hate going through a normal white house vetting process, but it would be much better than being vetted by the press. Welcome to Washington Mr Obama.

I find it humorous that it is being reported that part of the reason that Van Jones resigned was the controversy over Van calling republicans "assholes." Does anyone really care about that? If anything, I actually appreciate Van Jones candor in sharing his real feelings on the topic. Since I don't think anyone gives a crap about the "asshole" comment, I think it is being reported as a way to show that conservatives have thin skin and trivializing the real reasons that Van Jones was targeted. I believe that our political system is really in the crucible now. In spite the mainstream media's complicity in the Obama revolution, the power of the press is proving to be a critical part of the checks and balances that our government was supposed to embrace. And if you are looking for a good investment...News Corp, owner of Fox News is looking quite peachy. stockcharts.com
