Nathan and I love to lurk among the freepers. I actually met some real live ones when David Horowitz "spoke" at UCB last yr. They were a 10 feet or so from the couple dozen Sparts.What fun!
On S.F. local media, btw, one of our older DSA members with decades in the CPUSA behind her, is under the delusion the S.F. Chronicle is a conservative paper.Think I'll copy their last editorial on Wolfowitz or U.S. miitary aid to Columbia for her.

Something else>...""MARGARET WARNER: Do you think this could spin out of control?
"ZBIGNIEW BRZEZINSKI: Well, it could spin out of control. In the meantime the United States and Israel are increasingly isolated internationally. This could hurt our ability to conduct the war on terrorism and last but not least--and this worries me a great deal --I think the Palestinians are being turned, largely by Mr. Sharon, into something like the Algerians: People absolutely determined to wage urban guerilla warfare brutally, ruthlessly, at any cost at enormous self-sacrifice.
"And the Israelis are becoming increasingly like the white supremacist South Africans, viewing the Palestinians as a lower form of life, not hesitating to kill a great many of them and justifying this on the grounds that they are being the objects of terrorism, which is true.
"But the reactions are all out of proportion, and all of that I think is a very sad spectacle and ultimately a spectacle of failure of American strategy."
