White House green jobs czar Van Jones had apologized twice this week for making regrettable statements and there may be another one coming.
His name is posted online in support of an October 2006 petition to stop police brutality posted by the Revolution newspaper, which describes itself as the “Voice of the Revolutionary Communist Party, USA.” The petition was created by a group called the October 22nd Coalition that seeks to "meet the intensifying nationwide epidemic of police brutality with resistance on the national level" and says it works with the International Concerned Family and Friends of Mumia Abu Jamal.
Other groups and individuals signing the petition include: Act Now to Stop War and End Racism, Freedom Socialist Party of San Francisco, International Socialist Organization of San Francisco, Justice4Palestinians, New Black Panther Party's New York Chapter and the Party for Socialism and Liberation.

One too many...OUT!
Van Jones, a rotting bleeding red albatross around Obama’s neck, is the gift that keeps on giving.
Another apology? We don’t need another apology - we need this guy OUT.
Where are the so called leaders on our side? Hiding under their desks? Friggin wimps!!
Yes, I am hoping they cling to him past Labor Day weekend in order to prolong this revealing episode in the BO presidency.
how about that statement...”White people poisoning people of color”—
President Obama knows who he is dealing with. The Reds in his administration needed no background checks.
Americans should have known they were electing a Communist sympathizer. The rhetoric was on record for all to see.
Every WH in history understood a guy like this had to go. This one is so arrogant it actually believes otherwise.
Is there a comprehensive list somewhere? I’m wondering if I know some of the names...
LOL!!
American bloggers doing the job the White House and Media won’t do....
PRICELESS....it just keeps piling up, and piling up....
“I’m sorry that you can’t handle the TRUTH as I see it!”
Like apologizing matters to him.
I don’t know . . . I’m kind of hoping he keeps Jones around for a while, for entertainment value, at least.
How many more Van Jones’ are there in the administration that have managed to keep thier mouth’s shut but would agree with what Jones has said publicly? My guess this is tip of ole’ iceberg.
The Pravda Media won’t don’t the job because they lie by omission. They refuse to out fellow travellers.
I can’t beleive he’s not fired. If he resigns, that will be a sign of humongous weakness from 0.
Another...”apology”??!! Was there a first?
Man, when I was a kid I never got away with saying, “I am sorry you were offended that I kicked you.”
“Another apology? We don’t need another apology - we need this guy OUT.”
He is probably more useful in his current job. He would be replaced by a similar nut in anycase (but someone who wasn’t so open about his views).
It is almost too easy to make political ads in 2010 and 2012 featuring these extremists..
Shuck and jive.
Like when Barack had to run to the middle as a “moderate” in the campaign. His base knew he only had to say these things to get elected.
Jeremiah Wright knew that Barack had to distance himself from the Reverend to get elected by the masses.
