Obama Official's Group Trying to Silence Glenn Beck

Once again, freedom of the press only applies to those that agree with Obama. "Green jobs czar" (what the heck is that, anyway?) Van Jones is co-founder of Color of Change, a group that has launched a campaign to force Glenn Beck off the air.

While companies obviously are free to opt out of advertising on Beck's program, having a group connected to an Obama official pressure companies to do so is something we would see in a totalitarian regime.
