Well, Glenn Beck was instrumental in getting Van Jones to resign, let's hope his luck continues:

As he makes a real impact in pushing conservative fringe attacks on Obama administration officials into the mainstream, Glenn Beck?s Twitter feed has become a must-read. In a message from last night, Beck told his followers to ?FIND EVERYTHING YOU CAN ON CASS SUNSTEIN, MARK LLOYD AND CAROL BROWNER.? They are, respectively, the nominee to head the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, the Associate General Counsel and Chief Diversity Officer of the FCC, and the Assistant to the President for Energy and Climate Change. Browner was also administrator of the EPA for all eight years of Bill Clinton?s presidency.
Beck?s ostensible purpose here is to expose the ?czars? who?ve been appointed by the president. Sunstein stands out like a sore thumb, as he?s been tied up by holds and filibusters for months, and Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) only filed for cloture on his nomination at the start of August.

Sunstein Supports Outlawing Hunting, Phasing Out Meat Eating, Giving Animals Right To File Lawsuits
Washington, DC ? The nonprofit Center for Consumer Freedom said today that Cass Sunstein, the Harvard University Law School professor tapped by President-elect Obama to head the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, has a secret aim to push a radical animal-rights agenda in the White House. Sunstein supports outlawing sport hunting, giving animals the legal right to file lawsuits, and using government regulations to phase out meat consumption.
In a 2007 speech at Harvard University, Sunstein argued in favor of entirely "eliminating current practices such as ? meat eating." He also proposed:
"We ought to ban hunting, I suggest, if there isn?t a purpose other than sport and fun. That should be against the law. It?s time now."Sunstein wrote in his 2004 book Animal Rights: Current Debates and New Directions that
"animals should be permitted to bring suit, with human beings as their representatives ? Any animals that are entitled to bring suit would be represented by (human) counsel, who would owe guardian-like obligations and make decisions, subject to those obligations, on their clients? behalf."
The Center for Consumer Freedom?s Director of Research, David Martosko, is available to discuss Cass Sunstein?s likely impact on typical elements of American life that involve the use of animals. Sunstein?s work could spell the end of animal agriculture, retail sales of meat and dairy foods, hunting and fishing, biomedical research, pet ownership, zoos and aquariums, traveling circuses, and countless other things Americans take for granted.
Mr. Martosko said: "Cass Sunstein owes Americans an honest appraisal of his animal rights agenda as America?s top regulator. Americans don?t realize that the next four years could be full of bizarre initiatives plucked from the wildest dreams of the animal-rights fringe. Think about every outrageous idea PETA and the Humane Society of the United States have ever had, and imagine them all having the force of federal law.
This doesn?t look good for hunters, ranchers, restaurateurs, biomedical researchers, or ordinary pet owners."
