WANNA BET HE'S GONE BY THE 11TH?:

Pence calls on Van Jones to resign (Glenn Thrush, 9/04/09, Politico)

This sort of thing would usually be laughed off by Democrats -- a conservative Republican telling a Democratic appointee to quit.

But the Obama team isn't exactly jumping to back Jones today in wake of revelations that in the past he signed on to one of the "truther" groups that claimed 9/11 was an inside job. Oh, and he called Republicans a**holes in a video earlier this year before he was appointed.
