[Marxism] Progressives for Obama: still intoxicated

[S. Artesian]

Now we're Obama-phobes-- an irrational, unfounded fear, preventing and 
limiting one's interaction with the real world.

Well, first I have no fear of Obama.  Secondly, I believe I, and others 
opposite Walter, have been entirely rational in our analyses, and capable of 
interacting with the real world-- something Walter can only do on rare 
occassion.

I would others interested in this subject to look at William Bowles resent 
essay on Obama, which includes his analysis of the ANC.  Bowles worked 
intimately with the ANC in South Africa for years, prior to and during its 
assumption of power.  You can read it here:

I expect nothing more from Walter than the usual smear attacks, "phobe" this 
and "ultra" that.    And I acutally could care less whether Walter ever 
stops singing long enough to notice that there is no music accompanying his 
off key wailing. I would however love to hear a big chorus of "Shut Up" in 
response.

Anybody  remember the incredibly vicious, offensive, vulgar, crude opening 
scene and lines for The Way of the Gun ?
