Is This Bravo Or What Are You Trying To Pull Of The Day (5-18-2012)

 

This might be a time to sit down because you don’t want fall down after hearing this. Van Jones was interviewed about his observation of Operation Fast And Furious. He backs the Tea Party on getting to the bottom of Fast And Furious. This is part of what Van Jones said:

Host Brent Munlin pointed out that the “tea party is the one speaking out about this [Fast and Furious]; they’re the ones saying, ‘Hey, people are getting killed, we don’t care if they’re white, they’re black, they’re brown.’ It’s bull crap: that people are getting killed because of a government program that is just letting guns go across the border.”

 

Jones agreed that “there has been too much violence.”

 

“I don’t know the details of the program [Fast and Furious] or what the Attorney General, Eric Holder, has done or not done,” Jones said. “I do know that we need to declare some kind of an emergency, and really look at the situation down there and figure out what is going on, and do better.”

 

Jones added that he has several gripes with Holder, and insisted that he hasn’t held back on them.

 

“Obviously I’ve never bit my tongue in terms of my frustration with the attorney general when it comes to a lot of things,” Jones said, putting at the top of his list “the failure to prosecute any cases with the Wall Street debacle.”

 

Jones also said that while he hasn’t closely followed all the developments on the Fast and Furious scandal, he will ultimately back conservatives who have pushed for greater accountability.

 

“I do know enough to know that something terrible is going on down there,” Jones said. “And if the tea party is going to lead the way to try and shed some light on it, I’ll be right behind the tea party on it. I just don’t know enough about it right now.”

I am not sure if I should give Van Jones a Bravo on this or “What are you trying to pull Van Jones”. I am sort of suspicious about it when he said he would back the Tea Party on this. Jones doesn’t like the Tea Party too much.  Jones is got this thing about disorder too. Of course, you want to give him a chance at being sincere. What do you think?
