[lbo-talk] Dobbs fumes about 'radical' takeover of immigrant rights

[andie nachgeborenen]

"Even 'anarchic'" organizations -- Chuck should feel
proud that the Black Flag considereda  greater menace
than the Red One. (Well, the Red Flag is pretty limp
these days, truth to tell.) Dobbs sort of missed the
point that May Day is an American holiday, well,
anyway, an international holiday created by Aussies to
celebrate the American struggle -- based about a mile
from here at Haymarket Square in Shytown -- for that
nightmarishly radical goal . . . . the Eight Hour
Day!Now once more lost to the working class in large
part, as recent posts revealed.
