[lbo-talk] Virtually all Dems support Card Check Bill

With all due respect to you, Mike, have you been to an upper-level AFL-CIO meeting? If so, you must have had an unusual experience, if you think "Workers' Faction of the Democratic Leadership Council" is an inaccurate description. It's absolutely the truth, which is why a conflicted soul like Lacny spews so much acid. He knows it's true. Nonetheless, he spends his days (at the macro level he claims to speak about; at the micro level I'm sure he does great things) selling out, and his nights trying to manufacture cutting-edge radicalism from it all. His impulses are right, but his self-interpretation is as self-serving as you'll find. If he were truly brave, he'd say he has a great job and is doing honorable work, but that he hates his uppers' political waste of it all. This is assuming he's a union organizer, which is the aura he seems to have, given his (sophomoric) pontificating about details of AFL-Lack things, which he presumes none of us AFL-Lack members and officers know.

Can you two stop this? Between John's CPUSA rhetorical style of, "Objectively aligned with the ultra-right, " and your, "Workers' Faction of the Democratic Leadership Council, " all I see is a lefty cat fight where both of you are distorting each others positions.
