For all your Trotskyist veneer, David, sure you aren't the great grand-son of Vyshinsky? http://www.cyberussr.com/rus/insults-vysh.html

("liars and buffoons, contemptible pygmies, pug dogs and puppies, attempting to mount an elephant... utterly base scoundrels...vile creatures." --A. Ya. Vyshinsky at Zinoviev trial )

Jenny is doing what used to be called, pre WLM, the work of Jimmy Higgins. http://info.greenwood.com/books/0313262/0313262462.html (Ex-CPUSA'er, neo-con Aileen Kraditor's book, "Jimmy Higins: The Mental World of the American Rank-And-File Communist, 1930-1958, " on sterile Old Left dogmatisms, drawn from volumnious archival research. Looks like she read every issue of the Daily Worker.) Michael Pugliese
