VAN JONES(AP Photo/Carlos Osorio)Lawyer, activist and environmentalist Van Jones was appointed by President Obama as the Special Advisor for Green Jobs.   Conservative websites such as WorldNetDaily criticized him for his community activism and support for left-wing causes.  He became a regular target of Glenn Beck at Fox News, who referred to Jones as a “communist-anarchist radical.”  Color of Change, an organization that Jones cofounded, launched a campaign to drive advertisers away from Beck’s show.  Then, a video of Jones was posted on YouTube, in which he called Republican members of Congress “a**holes”.  And he came under criticism for signing a petition that made suggestions about the Bush administration’s role in 9/11.  The right-wing media machine was now in full gear, and Jones resigned.  Apparently, the White House did not lift a finger to save Jones from what he called a “vicious smear campaign.”
