Former Obama Green Jobs Czar Van Jones’ Anti-Government Rap: “Raise Your Fist Against the Real Terrorist – Uncle Sam”





But don’t worry, according to Time’s ultra-lefty Joe Klein it’s not Van Jones committing “sedition against the US,” instead it’s Sarah Palin…

On this anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing, with all the ginned-up media concern over the potential for tea party fervor to morph into acts of domestic terrorism, just wait until the media catches wind of this virulently anti-government song published by a very prominent political activist:

F*ck the government, they never done sh*t for me
For my people their defeat is a victory

“The man” wants the whole world under his thumb,
Plunders the globe and tries to buy us off with the crumbs…
That’s not your flag, not your government
Not your war, not your President
Now is not the time to be silent
Raise your voices, raise your fist
Against the real terrorist – Uncle Sam.

Whoa – the American government is the “real terrorist”?

Now I’d say that this is going beyond reasonable political discourse. Except of course this song was not published by any tea party activist. And far from generating any concern within the mainstream media, they completely ignored it when the discovery of this song spread like wildfire throughout the conservative blogosphere just a few short months ago. In fact, far from being condemned, the man most responsible for financing and promoting the album in which this song appears is now a senior fellow at the most prominent liberal think tank in the nation, and will soon be teaching at Princeton. Oh, and he was also recently awarded the highest honor given by the NAACP.

I’m referring of course to the former White House green jobs czar, Van Jones.

The Ella Baker Center, founded and run by Van Jones, was the “sponsoring non-profit” for Freedom Fighter Music which in 2003 produced and published an album entitled “WarTimes: Reports from the Opposition.” An album narrated by convicted cop-killer Mumia Abu-Jamal, and which also featured an interview segment with Van Jones himself.
