Oh brother, what a bunch of bullshit.

Perhaps McReynolds should step down from his socialist high horse and spend some time talking to rank-and-file activists about WWP/IAC/ANSWER. He'll find that antipathy towards these groups (actually all front groups for the WWP) cuts across the political spectrum. If there is one thing that local activists in Washington are unifed about, it's that we are sick and tired of the disruptive actions of the WWP/IAC/ANSWER.

Please, can somebody make them go away? Is there a paper we can buy to make them shut up and get back on their precious buses?

"...ironically, perhaps, the best organised dissenters in the world today are anarchists, who are busily undermining capitalism while the rest of the left is still trying to form committees."
