Or just plain bullshit. After having been in these types of 
situations for the better part of 40 years, I have never heard 
this sort of exchange once. Leaving aside the crudity, it seems 
very unlikely that two politicos would be hurling such epithets at 
each other. Who would be the "reformist"? Who would be the 
"Stalinist"? I don't know if Ayers ghost-wrote this book or not, 
but he surely could have come up with this far-fetched incident.
