OK. Then's let spend some time an energy getting out libertarians and
right wingers who are against the war. It's all a matter of bodies, right?

I think most of you would agree that the bigger picture dictates that we
think beyond just putting bodies on the streets. We have to be critical of
who we work with and in this case, WWP/IAC/ANSWER is not just a bad faith
partner, but they are a disruptive element. They seek a unity scenario in
which the integrity of their competing demo is intact. They do this
because they will take credit for the overall demo, like they always have
done in the past. 

You won't find me marching with the WWP on A20 amymore than you'll find me
protesting with the Freepers. Different politics, same ballgame as far as
I'm concerned.

"...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."
