Only about 70 people attended the Van Jones talk at Phillips Academy Exeter where Jones, Obama’s ex-green job czar, came to talk about green jobs for NH in a venue that could have held 500 or more.<\/p>\n

Mr. Jones was on his best behavior and said nothing controversial during his talk. One of the questions asked by a student was “How are we going to pay for your proposed green jobs?” <\/p>\n

The question WE still want to know is, how could Mr. Hassan (principal and husband of State Senator Maggie Hassan) allow a self-avowed communist to speak to the students?<\/p>\n

In case you’ve forgotten who Van Jones is, watch this video of him and of at Exeter. This is the guy who called Republicans vulgar names, called President Bush a crackhead, and said that the government planned 9\/11 and is trying to poison minorities…<\/p>\n

Update: One of our organizers who was at the event, was on Glenn Beck’s radio show at around 9:30 AM on 2\/24. She told Beck that one of her tea partiers got Jones to sign a copy of “Arguing with Idiots”. <\/p>\n

Here are the pictures of the book and signature:<\/p>\n
