Long time Worker's World Party/Party For Socialism and Liberaltion leaders Brian & Richard Becker have been deliberately promulgating a lie that their March 17th event in DC is the anniversary not only of the Iraq war, but also of the 60's era March On The Pentagon. Looking to cash in on the cache of the 60's anti-ar movement, they lie. It's all bout bring out the smelly old hippies and today's wannabes for some Hate America nostalga. The March on the Pentagon anniversary is OCTOBER 22. That is 219 days after the communist front groups claimed "anniversary". Communists like Brian and Richard Becker count on the term "useful idiots" being correct. So far, they are right about the left.
I just saw an e-mail from them claiming that March 17 was the anniversary of the Iraq War.
They must have replace one lie with another, because the war started on March 19.
That one is a lot closer to the truth. It's the closest weekend.
I think they are getting nervous about their turn out vs ours. The American Legion has been gathering people in addition to the FR threads.
They [ANSWER] may not have as many people confirmed vs. the numbers coming in for the counter protest [FR/MIL/Vets].
MoveOn even sent out a survey requesting feed back on how they are doing so they can improve themselves. I've never seen that before since I signed up for their email service (4 years ago).
And with these people, close to the truth is a close as you're ever gonna get.
