There's been a bunch of chatter regarding the presidential advisors and their roles of whispering in the ear of our president. More evidence is being found and released which suggests some of these advisors, who are also called czars, have some deep seated anti-American beliefs. Does anyone know how much influence they hold? Thought you'd be interested in seeing this latest story out this morning.
Obama Adviser on 9/11: Blame 'U.S. Imperialism,' Reports Aaron Klein
/PRNewswire -- One day after the 9/11 attacks, President Obama's "green jobs czar" led a vigil that expressed solidarity with Arab and Muslim Americans as well as what he called the victims of "U.S. imperialism" around the world, reports Aaron Klein of WorldNetDaily.
Klein previously reported Van Jones, special adviser for green jobs, enterprise and innovation to the White House Council on Environmental Quality, is an admitted black nationalist and radical communist.
Jones was the leader and founder of a radical group, the communist revolutionary organization Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement, or STORM. That group, together with Jones' Elle Baker Center for Human Rights, led a vigil Sept. 12, 2001, at Snow Park in Oakland, Calif.
STORM's official manifesto, titled, "Reclaiming Revolution" has surfaced on the Internet.
A review of the 97-page treatise found a description of a vigil that Jones' group held Sept. 12, 2001, at Snow Park in Oakland, Calif. The event drew hundreds and articulated an "anti-imperialist" line, according to STORM's own description.
The radical group's manual boasted the 9/11 vigil was held to express solidarity with Arab and Muslim Americans and to mourn the civilians killed in the terrorist attacks "as well as the victims of U.S. imperialism around the world"
"We honored those who lost their lives in the attack and those who would surely lose their lives in subsequent U.S. attacks overseas" STORM's manifesto recalls.
Also, Klein obtained a press release of Jones' vigil, dated Sept. 11, 2001, and titled, "People Of Color Groups Gather to Stand In Solidarity With Arab Americans and to Mourn the East Coast Dead."

Education is the Key- So Why Don't We Try It?
Having a solid education is the key for opening doors and opportunities. On this one issue, it would appear the president and I agree strongly.
With that said, I was shocked this morning to read an article about the lack of education in our colleges and universities. The report released indicates a serious lack of teaching students about American government or American history. Actually, it said that of the 100 leading colleges and universities, only 11% require these courses. Only 53% require mathematics.
How can that be? Is it more important to learn to be a free thinker or to be a free thinker with knowledge in your head?
Maybe I'll start a survey. Now seems just like the perfect time as I reflect on a couple of upcoming American history events.
Quick. Tell me.
What was the Treaty of Paris? Is any part of it still in use today?
When was the United States Constitution framed?
Do you know the answers? I do.

PJTV Attendance Count for Tea Parties Passes 540,000
VWV Note: Just thought you'd want to see the latest estimates in for the tea party. Today, the Atlanta Police estimated the Atlanta turnout to be over 15,000. And just think, it was peaceful.
/PRNewswire/ -- Pajamas TV (www.pjtv.com) announced today that its current attendance count for the April 15 tea parties has surpassed 540,000. That number will continue to rise as Pajamas TV tabulates additional reports. Over 600 citizen reporters filed text, video, and cell phone reports for Pajamas TV on tax day. Following the tea party protests, the Pajamas TV citizen reporter program has grown to include nearly 700 volunteer journalists.
"By any measure, the April 15 tea parties are a historic event and Pajamas TV has become the place of record for documenting the tea party movement," said Pajamas Media CEO and Co-founder Roger L. Simon. "We have committed significant resources to document this movement from both a reporting and attendance point of view. Pajamas TV is already planning to cover the additional tea parties that are being scheduled for July 4."
Attendance Passes 540,000
Pajamas TV has been tabulating attendance data for the tax day tea parties since they began. By the evening of Thursday, April 16 that number had reached 541,568. The latest numbers are available at www.pjtv.com along with breakouts of the top events, top states, and a map view (http://www.pjtv.com/?cmd=map) of attendance by state. A PDF file detailing tea party attendance by location is available at http://tinyurl.com/teapartyattendance.
The numbers are based on 40 percent or 350 of the 879 events registered in the PJTV database. The numbers came to Pajamas TV directly from the field and include accounts from organizers, police, and citizen reporters. "The top 40 events represent about 257,000 attendees and our last 20 reports average about 1,000 per event. It's highly possible that the total attendance number is between 800,000 and 1 million," Simon noted.
Pajamas TV Coverage of the Tea Parties
The PJTV coverage included reports from its locations in Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., New York, and Tennessee. In addition, over 600 citizen reporters were active on tax day. These reporters submitted photos, videos, cell phone, and even live wireless reports back to the Pajamas TV studio headquarters in Los Angeles.
In addition to its coverage of the tea parties which centers on the public outcry regarding America's financial direction, Pajamas TV is continuing its effort to quantify the financial impact on the next generation. Its Generational Theft contest offers a prize of $20,000 for college students and their professors.
