Here's a hint for you, if someone in an article agrees with you but works for something that sounds like this, "Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador", you might want to think twice about posting the article.

So you are saying that no one can post an article unless they agree one hundred percent with every organization everyone cited in the article is affiliated with?

You don't have that right.

# 1. Guilt By Association: This is used to damage someone's reputation by associating them with an unattractive person or organization. It doesn't matter if there is an actual association or not.

And you are hijacking the thread that was meant to provoke a discussion about the constitutionality of the CAFTA agreement into personal attacks on me. Nice.

No, I'm not saying that. I am saying that if you post an article and agree with a Communist quoted in the article, don't be surprised if people start to associate you with Communists.

If a Communist organization is unattractive, you shouldn't post articles quoting their agreement with you. It might damage your reputation.
