This has pissed off a lot of local activists and is sure to create some interesting disputes later today. This *is* something new and demonstrates the arrogance that has taken hold among the IAC puppetmasters in ANSWER. Believe it or not, there are some activists within ANSWER who aren't happy about this.

I guess these fees are just going to be spent paying for some of those "toe warmers" that ANSWER says they'll have available today.
