Arianna Huffington is co-chair of AOL News and Entertainment. Her world famous blog The Huffington Post beats out conservative blogger Matt Drudge's The Drudge Report in a 4:1 margin. But that hasn't stopped the founder Matt Drudge and his affiliate website The Fox Nation. These news agitation websites attract conservatives, and likely white supremacists. These folks can't stand the first Black president and the guy they claim is a "devout Communist racist!" The Fox Nation comes forth with a picture that Arianna Huffington took with her iPhone. The picture of Van Jones, former Obama adviser sleeping in a pod at the AOL Huffington Post office.
Van Jones the co-founder of The Color Of Change is pushing forth a national boycott against Rush Limbaugh and Fox News. His organization allied with rapper Nas to deliver a petition to Roger Alies, the CEO of the company. Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly and Sean Hannity are notorious conservative agitators. They've pushed the bar lower when it comes to driving wedge issues between the president and the American voters. The liberal activist has been in the crosshairs of the conservative media. They were upset that Jones called the Republicans a bunch of "assholes" for the constant gridlock and desires to defeat President Barack Obama.

In March 2009 Jones was appointed by President Barack Obama to the newly created position of Special Advisor for Green Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation at the White House Council on Environmental Quality, where he worked with various "agencies and departments to advance the administration's climate and energy initiatives, with a special focus on improving vulnerable communities."
In July 2009 he became "embroiled in a controversy" over his past political activities, including a public comment disparaging congressional Republicans, his name appearing on a petition for 911Truth.org, and allegations of association with a Marxist group during the 1990s. For these issues, Van Jones was heavily criticized by conservatives. Jones resigned from the position in early September 2009."On the eve of historic fights for health care and clean energy, opponents of reform have mounted a vicious smear campaign against me," Jones said in his resignation statement. "They are using lies and distortions to distract and divide."
Jones is currently a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress and a senior policy advisor at Green For All. Jones also holds a joint appointment at Princeton University, as a distinguished visiting fellow in both the Center for African American Studies and in the Program in Science, Technology and Environmental Policy at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs.

I know. Those guys are truly unhinged, especially when it comes to race, religion, class, ethnicity, sexual orientation, culture, and gender.
