ANSWER is very much a Commie front. Do some reading on Ramsey Clark, ANSWER's leader. Clark has sympathized with every Commie dictator in his lifetime. He has defended them all legally -- all of them: Castro, Milosevic, Hussein, Pol Pot, etc. He said that Milosevic didn't kill those people, that it was all just U.S. propaganda. No one has paralleled Clark's anti-American remarks, no one. ANSWER is funded by Communist regimes world-wide.
Kerry has spoken at every anti-American rally that ANSWER has put on. So has Sharpton. So have a lot of present Democratic leaders, most especially up north. Just look at any ANSWER rallies, and you will probably see that your Democrat leader has attended them.
For gosh sakes, even Willie Nelson sang at one of these rallies.
Kerry is definitely a Commie.

True, they have yet to abandon their goal.

Also, remember that CBS's Dan Rather interviewed Hussein recently. That interview was arranged by Ramsey Clark. CBS is now airing a series on Hitler. They say they are doing it to warn the public against Bush. In other words, Bush=Hitler.

Think CBS has got it wrong there. The same kind of thinking that produced socialism also produced Nazism. It is the Left from whom comes the greatest current threat of totalitarianism, not Republicans.
I wouldn't go to a KKK rally for any reason, though I despise Affirmative Action as a socialist mechanism. IMO, the KKK has more in common with socialists than it has with American traditions of liberty.

Well, you don't have to convince me about CBS's fallacy. It's ludicrous.
But as for the KKK comment, I said it was "like," meaning comparative.
It wasn't a comment on the KKK. It was just what it was. Willie Nelson's attending a "peace" rally put on by ANSWER would be like me (or you or anyone) attending a KKK rally to protest affirmative action.
(Just comparative.)

Oh, sorry, apologies for jumping on a soap box.
Yeah, I agree with you. Trying to figure out what to do with my Willie cd's now.

"Found this from David Horowitz:
"The main organizer and financer of the "peace" protests is a group called International A.N.S.W.E.R. -- a front for the Communist World Workers Party with tentacles stretching around the globe. Its leaders include Ramsey Clark, a former U.S. Attorney General, turned communist.

And this:
"The "anti-war" group NION (Not In Our Name), is the brainchild of Maoist Clark Kissinger. Kissinger, a leader of the Revolutionary Communist Party, and has a close relationship -- by virtue of his hatred of his country -- with the Maoist International Movement (MIM). MIM has called for the violent overthrow of our government. NION has become a coalition of far-left professors and Hollywood stars, including Martin Sheen, Sean Penn, Jane Fonda, Michael Moore, Ed Asner and Mike Farrell, who believe celebrities have a sacred duty to stand on their soapbox and attack America!"

You mentioned Mike Farrell? He and Ramsey Clark are GOOD friends:
Mike Farrell: Art of Deception
By Jean Pearce
FrontPageMagazine.com | April 3, 2003
By now, Mike Farrell probably figures hes got the nation fooled. For over 20 years, the Hollywood actor turned peace activist has flawlessly played the part of the pacifist patriot with Americas best interests at heart. Farrell is quite convincing when hes in character, as he has been since he propelled himself to the forefront of the Iraq war protest movement. Without batting an eye, Farrell will tell you how much it would pain him to see Iraqi or American blood spilled in the unjust war on Iraq.
Farrell is counting on the fact that no one remembers another part he played one Friday night, 18 years ago in San Salvador. For 2 ½ hours, Farrell, who played a surgeon on M*A*S*H, assisted Dr. Alejandro Sanchez in a real-life operation to restore movement to the arm of Nidia Diaz, a guerilla leader of the Marxist Central American Workers Party. Just two months before, the group had claimed responsibility for the slaying of four U.S. Marines, two American businessmen and nine civilians. Diaz is still barred from entering the U.S. for her role in the murders.
"Apparently, it was the most important role in his life," Sandra "Sand" Brim of Medical Aid for El Salvador told the Associated Press at the time. The U.S.-based Medical Aid, which was founded by Farrells long-time friend and radical activist buddy, actor Ed Asner, flew in the Los Angeles doctor because there was no surgeon available with the skills to perform the delicate operation. Because he needed someone to assist him, Sanchez asked Farrell, who at the time was in Central America at the behest of Amnesty International, for help on the way to the hospital.
"I know this is going to look like a publicity stunt, but thats too bad. It isnt," Farrell told the Los Angeles Times after the operation.
If not a publicity stunt, than what was it? A good-hearted effort to put a Marxist terrorist with American blood on her hands back in the battlefield to prey upon the very civilians Farrell claimed to want to help?
By 1985, Farrell and a small handful of Hollywood actors had become a thorn in the side of the Reagan administration, which spent millions aiding the Nicaraguan Contras in their battle against the Cuban and Soviet-backed Marxist Sandinistas. Farrell and Asners group, Committee of Concern for Central America, even went so far as to invite Nicaraguas Communist Sandinista leader, Daniel Ortega, for a nine-day publicity tour of American cities, the purpose of which, The Washington Post reported, was to counter the Reagan administrations "disinformation" effort against Nicaraguas communist government. At the final event, a fundraiser for the Committee of Concern, the Post reported that Ortega raised his fist in the air and shouted "If the United States commits the error of invading us, we know we will struggle with you at our side," which elicited cheers from the audience.
This is the real Mike Farrell Marxist sympathizer, militant anti-American, selective pacifist with a disdain for the American blood that flows through his own veins.
Like the other Hollywood radicals who spent years "helping" in Nicaragua and El Salvador in direct opposition to U.S. efforts to combat communism at Americas doorstep, Farrell would probably insist that they were merely trying to help Nicaraguan civilians who were suffering at the hands of the Contras the U.S. supported.
But in the1990s, after the people of Nicaragua deep-sixed Ortegas violent government and voted out the communist Sandinistas, the Hollywood crowd scattered like roaches from the light. When Hurricane Mitch killed 11,000 and devastated Central America in 1998 Farrell and his Committee of Concern were nowhere to be found.
So what exactly was Farrell up to while thousands of Nicaraguan children died of starvation? What could possibly have been more important to the man who once offered himself to the media as Central Americas anti-Contra protector and spokesman?
Apparently, sparing convicted cop-killer Mumia Abu-Jamal from the death penalty and setting him free took precedence. Farrells only public appearance of note in the months after the hurricane was a stint on 20/20 in which Farrell, who once co-chaired the New York-based Committee to Save Mumia Abu-Jamal, was summarily shellacked by ABC newsman Sam Donaldson.
Given his history, it would be easy to brush Farrell off if he werent so good at grabbing the limelight when he wants to make a point. Like lesser-known activists with Marxist credentials, Farrell seems to have the formula for using the media to reach the public down pat. He simply creates a protest group, signs up half of Hollywood, then uses their combined star power as leverage to weigh in on an issue. Its what he did while stumping for the Sandinistas, and what he did again with the help of actor Martin Sheen when he launched Artists United to Win Without War in September.
With about $300,000, a couple of ads and a web site, Farrell and his friends set up a virtual march on Washington to protest the war that resulted in thousands of phone calls and faxes from 80,000 people who signed up online to harass Congress and the White House with anti-war messages.
Once again, Farrell had gotten away if not with murder, then with aiding and abetting it .

Guess which Democrat Reps show up at ANSWER's rallies:
Organizers said speakers will include Rep. John Conyers Jr. (D-Mich.) and Jesse L. Jackson as well as religious and labor leaders. Musical performers will include country singer Willie Nelson and hip-hop artist Mos Def.
Also joining the Pacifica coverage will be Rep. Charles Rangel, who recently called for the re-instatement of the military draft.
Confirmed speakers for the rally include former Attorney General Ramsey Clark, former Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, Damu Smith (Black Voices for Peace), actors Jessica Lange and Mike Farrell, and Ron Kovic (author, BORN ON THE FOURTH OF JULY).
Starting to see the connection here?

This stuff is all kind of shocking to me, not to say enraging. I can't figure out why the media, when covering these "anti war" events, never mentions that they are organized and financed by communists. Except I guess most media types are sympathetic and don't want it to get out.
All those people are unbelievable, evil really. Which guy was Farrell on Mash?
I know there were large anti war protests before WWII, now I'm wondering if those also were set up by commies. Bet they were.
BTW, my wife has banned me from talking politics at the table :-D She agrees w/ me mostly, just got tired of hearing about it.

"Viet Cong by night is my guess." The Fedayeen (Saddam's goons) have been "fingering" innocent people for 20 years.
Don't you think after the dust settles, the real "shakedowns" are going to be coming from within the ranks of those who used to be on the Fedayeen's "recieving end" and now have the distinct pleasure of rooting the ba$tard$ out of their midst?

Bush War Bad, Clinton War Good
On Bush and the War with Iraq:
"It is inappropriate for the administration to trump up a case in which we are ballyhooed into war."
Source:
http://www.commondreams.org/headlines02/1210-09.htm However, when Clinton took non-U.N.-approved military action in Kosovo, Farrell said:
"...the bottom line is that I think its appropriate for the international community in situations like this to intervene. I am in favor of an intervention. Im not strong on techno war, however, and I think we have to remember that what they dismiss euphemistically as "collateral damage" is real human beings who are themselves not the perpetrators of either the ethnic cleansing or the slaughters that have been going on in Kosovo. I find myself in the peculiar position of being in favor of an intervention and yet unclear that what we are doing is the appropriate thing to do. On some level you have to say that at least somebody is doing something."
