[Marxism] Banishment

[Bonnie Weinstein]

I am appalled at the banishment of Walter Lippmann from Marxmail.  
Certainly, I do not support his appraisal of Obama by any stretch of  
the imagination. However, banishment from the list is not just  
ridiculous, it's totally against all democratic norms. Marxmail is  
not a political party. And, in fact, I have the same objections to  
Green Party candidates as I do to Obama!

So, therefore, probably a majority of Marxmail subscribers should be  
banished based on my criteria if I were to react as Louis has. But  
the purpose of the list-serve is to be able to have a dialogue--even  
with those  you disagree with on some or even many issues.

I am sorry I did not speak out about this earlier. I have been  
swamped with work. But I did and do rely on Walter's extensive Cuba  
reporting.

Walter belongs back on the list and this "banishment" stuff must end  
now.

Comradely,
