[lbo-talk] Democrats and government

Dennis: "Fear not, I've been keeping track of the Libyan revolution, and the

no matter how genuine - would be wiped out long time ago.  This is
what seems to be happening in Syria now where genuine opposition sans
NATO air support is being crushed by Assad's armor.
