It didn't start with the Sparts...and it won't end there either, if these comrades keep it up...

Ay, carumba! All the Trotskyist parties in the world. I want some of the drugs these folks are on, well on second thought.. http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/Lobby/4192/trotskyi.html

Reminds me of a quote in Daniel Bell's ,"Marxian Socialism in the U.S," about the Marlenites the Leninist League) and the Oehlerites (Revolutionary Workers League- labor leader Sid Lens was a member, a very young Noam Chomsky was familiar with them) Bell quotes Max Schactman, "While definitely anti-gynaicocratic and taking no formal position on exogamy or endogamy, it is based fundamentally on the primitive gens in so far as one must be a blood relation of the immediate family, or at least related to it by marriage, in order to qualify for membership. This has the unfortunate effect of somewhat reducing the arena of recruitment, but it does guarantee against contamination." pg. 153, fn. 273. Well as Lenin said ,"Better fewer, but better."!

George Marlen a/k/a George Spiro authored tracts such as, "Earl Browder, Tool of Wall Street?"[well when you put it that way the answer is obvious] and tomes like ,"Marxism and the U.S.S.R.." In later years I believe he became convinced that the left was anti-semitic. I'll see about getting him an honorary membership card in the "socialist" group for neo-cons, Social Democrats, U.S.A.-still in the Socialist International btw along with DSA. Ollie North had Michael Ledeen use his contacts in the SDUSA/NED/Freedom House neo-con fraternity and the Israeli Labor and Italian Socialist parties to make the Iran-Contra affair come off.
