 | Obama 's Green Jobs Adviser Quits Amid Controversy |
After being put through much scrutiny for the negative comments he made about the Republican Party and for signing a petition that linked the U.S. government with the terrorist attacks on 9/11, Van Jones, “green jobs” advisor to the president, resigned this month. Jones issued a public apology for the comments he made about the GOP. He also stated that he did not agree with the petition he signed and must not have reviewed the language in the petition well enough before signing. Despite his attempts to clear his name, Republicans still demanded that he resign from the position. “His extremist views and coarse rhetoric have no place in this administration or the public debate,” said Rep. Mike Pence of Indiana. Though Jones said he has been “inundated with call all across the political spectrum asking him to stay and fight,” he then went on to say that he could not in good conscience ask his colleagues to spend time and energy defending or explaining his past.
