Obama official the “Green Jobs Czar” Van Jones Linked to Racially Charged Boycott of Glenn Beck

Boycott Progressive Insurance Facebook Group now available! Them chickens are coming home to rooooooooooooooost! A racially charged activist group called “Color of Change” founded by Van Jones, an admitted communist and Hussein’s “Green Czar” to the Obama Administration, is trying to silence popular radio and Fox News personality Glenn Beck by calling for a boycott of Beck’s TV advertisers according to Human Events and Red State

On July 28th, Beck made a comment on the Fox & Friends morning show about Obama’s reaction to the arrest of Dr. Henry Louis Gates Jr. During the discussion of “Professor-Gate,” Beck connected the President’s past association with Rev. Jeremiah Wright to Obama’s comment that Cambridge police officer, Sgt. James Crowley, acted stupidly. Though Beck acknowledged most of the Obama administration is in fact white, he concluded that the President’s world experience made him a “racist.”

Now “Color of Change” has bullied at least five of Beck’s big advertisers — SC Johnson, Progressive Insurance, Geico, Procter & Gamble and Nexus Lexis — to pull their ads from Beck’s national cable program. Jones, the founder of “Color of Change,” was named Special Advisor for Green Jobs at the White House Council on Environmental Quality — a key administrative post — this past March.

Putting tax-payer dollars to dubious use, the not-for-profit organization has hired well-heeled Hollywood publicist Ken Sunshine to further instigate the boycott.

Beck exposed Jones on his show today 8/24/09.

    The number of sponsors to drop Beck has grown closer to 20 although color of change has released some false information according to defendglenn.com. Our group is organizing a coalition of conservatives who will be ready to spring into action quickly when things like this happen in the future. Please join us:
