Thankfully, that kind of McCarthyism, yes, that's what it is, is not working.

The definition of McCarthyism is to falsely accuse someone of Communism to discredit them. I am not going to let you redefine McCarthyism to mean, accurately calling avowed Communists "Communist". ANSWER is Communist. Worse, ANSWER is Stalinist. ANSWER supports Kim Jong Il, and the Chinese suppression of the protests in Tianemen Square.

Worst of all, none of the other anti-war organizing movements have done or said ANYTHING to disassociate themselves from ANSWER. On the contrary, they treat ANSWER as an equal partner with the rights to blackball speakers.
