Van Jones destroys Glenn Beck with love. Despite the best efforts of Glenn Beck to ruin Van Jones, Jones is back, standing tall, a righteous man vindicated.

While receiving a prestigious award Friday night from the NAACP, Jones refused to lower himself to Beck’s level. Rather than giving Beck the tongue lashing he so richly deserved; Jones rose above the ugly, divisive, mean spirited little man that is Glenn Beck.

Rather than scorn, Jones instead offered Beck a message of love, and the country a message of hope and unity:

Last thing I want to say is this: To my fellow countryman, Mr. Glenn Beck. I see you, and I love you, brother. I love you, and you cannot do anything about it. I love you, and you cannot do anything about it. Let’s be one country! Let’s be one country! Let’s get the job done!

With that short, brief, powerful message of love and redemption, hope and promise, Jones destroyed Beck. The contrast could not be stronger: Beck is a petty and vicious snake in the grass, a vile serpent, a vessel of rumor, innuendo, and evil; while Jones is a hero, maligned but resolute, rising above Beck and the filth of the right wing smear machine.

Glenn Beck's personal attack on Van Jones was part of a larger campaign to instill fear in gullible Americans. Last year Glenn Beck obsessed on Van Jones, using his platform at Fox News to make outlandish accusations, advancing baseless conspiracy theories designed to prey on race-based fears.

While many encouraged Jones to fight the ugly smear campaign, Jones chose to quietly step down so that the country could focus on other important issues. His quiet, selfless sacrifice reflects true character. Van Jones fell on his sword rather than have President Obama expend precious political capital defending his reputation.

Jones made his remarks at the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) Image Awards where he was being honored for his work promoting a green economy.  In addition, Jones recently landed a position at the Center for American Progress, a Washington think-tank, as a Senior Fellow and leader of the new Green Opportunity Initiative, which will focus on creating economic opportunity in distressed communities. He will also be teaching environmental and economic policy at Princeton University.

    I know of at least one other examiner.com pretend journalist who, like you, was so detached from reality and wrote so many outrageously stupid yet hateful articles, that apparently someone complained successfully and got him confined to just one BS topic where he couldn't do any more damage. I wonder if your ranting might some day provoke a similar outcome? Here's hoping.

    If this guy loves you I'd say you better watch out.
    The only thing I can think of in his defense is that he is a communist. NO WAIT... that's a bad thing.
    Sorry progressives I know you really go for communists and all but you're a lunatic fringe on the losing end this time.

    The Wall Street Journal reports it takes 4,000 windmills to output the equivalent power of 1 nuclear power generating station. There are 104 nuclear power plants in the United States generating 20% of our electricity. To generate the equivalent power from wind would require half a million windmills located in geographical locations that support wind power.
    That to me sounds like a lot of jobs. I think everyone in the United States is going to have to move to North Dakota to Keep those windmills going.

    So, my question is: if we had a "White Image Award" how well do you think that would go over and how much lambasting do you think we'd get over that one? Van Jones has himself professed his anti-American leanings on many occasions. If this is the kind of people the NAACP wants to hold in high regard, perhaps they should fight to form form their own country and get out of ours.

    Van Jones says we have to change the whole system. You can take out the dirty power system and replace it with clean energy and solar power. But if we don't change how we are consuming water or how we deal with our other sister and brother species and toxins. If that is not a part of this movement I'll tell you what you'll have. You'll have solar powered bull dozers. Solar power buzz saws and bio fueled bombers and we will be fighting wars over lithium for the batteries instead of oil for the engines and we will still have a dead planet.

    I wish I had done a PHD on progressives. Some traits I discovered they all share to varying degrees are:
    1.) A really REALLY deep down atavistic hate for GB
    2.) GB's vibe drives them absolutely crazy insane
    3.) Reduced ability to control greed for power
    4.) The facts never interfere with their beliefs
    5.) Pathological
    6.) Completely intolerent.
    7.) Republican and democrat
    They don't have the facts on GB because they just cannot listen to him. It's like the truth is acid that burns their flesh.
    For the objective person this is like a splinter in the mind. You know something is wrong with them but what you know you can't explain.
    Seven months ago I didn't know this. I do now. Quite often when progressives see the facts don't support their position , their burning desire to want to control everything, they just make stuff up. They don't put even 5 minutes into finding out what makes a society work.
    Our elected officials prove this to be true every day.

    I confess, I am an idiot for watching and listening to Glenn Beck. I am unable to think for myself. I am just a moronic troll, a mindless servant to the cult of Beck. Beck feeds me hate and fear, and I like it. I am a failure in life and so I must blame progressives for my miserable life. I am in the end, a pathetic worm, suffocating in the excrement of Glenn Beck.
