My point was that if Dogan wanted to hear arguments against the Senate Bill, he could go to places like the Huffington Post, etc. The liberal wing of the Democratic Party can provide him the information. I don't think the CPUSA was ever in a position to betray a revolution in the US or to sell out much of anything for the last half century. They have, however, finally bought the farm...the funny farm. There was an old IWW cartoon from the 1930s that depicted the CP looking admiringly at the billboard advertisement of the Great American Bull. Since, that bull on the billboard has developed the capability of fertilizing the entire field of U.S. politics with public relations, spin and dribble. And along comes the CPUSA, still following in its wake, mooning after the fleshpots of power. In order to hop into bed with Joe Lieberman, it scoffs at the position taken by people like Dennis Kucinich as an unrealisticly utopian and radical. I'm not just perplexed but even a bit scandalized.
