Was Van Jones a member of the Communist Party?
And before you get snarky, YES, I already used "the Google" and "the Wikipedia".
I just figured there'd be some rabid people here who would be more than happy to list out all of Van Jones's communist links, ties, innuendos, and pecadilloes. Along with some truly stunning Beck-inspired commentary, I'm sure.
Thanks! Do be sure to bite my head off, while you're at it. :)

Van Jones was still a Communist long after leaving College as this will prove.
Jones was the leader and founder of a radical group, the communist revolutionary organization Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement, or STORM. The group led a vigil Sept. 12, 2001, at Snow Park in Oakland, Calif. The radical group's manual boasted that the 9/11 vigil was held to express solidarity with Arab and Muslim Americans and to mourn the civilians killed in the terrorist attacks "as well as the victims of U.S. imperialism around the world".
"We honored those who lost their lives in the attack and those who would surely lose their lives in subsequent U.S. attacks overseas," STORM's manifesto recalls.
STORM's Manifesto was reposted but taken down within 24 hours of Van Jones being appointed Green Czar.

Yes, but instead of taking our word for it keep researching. You obviously are curious. Use your OWN mind read all you can.Then think what a person like this or a group of like minded people could do to our constitution.

I dated a communist girl once. I guess that makes me a bad person too.

Van Jones was a Communist in College.
Show me one person who didn't do something stupid in colege, and I'll show you someone who didn't go.
Judging people by what they did in college 20 years ago is foolish, at best.

i don't care so much that he is a commie ...i'm rather upset that he supports cop-killers and the jena six and is a racist. i can't believe that he believes that crap he spews in his interviews.
