    Carlos:
    Uhmmmmm ,,,,,As a tried to tell you in a private post:
    You are an strange fellow.  Supports politically DKPR
    (Kim-Il-Sung,) -- the inherited "Red" Kngdom ( I like
    that term) -- and yes, Kate is contradictory, but
    what in life is not); then you also supports the psychotic
    Senderistas and, I believe, you're also a member of the
    CPUSA.  Strange developments in the party of Gus Hall.
    As to your acussations, I heard them before.  Stalinist
    use to throw them away every time some Marxist will criticize
    the Soviet Union, Stalin ... etc.  The only problem is that
    with the increasing crisis and dissappearance of those
    "Socialist" countries they are left with nuts like Gonzalo
    or nation-prisons like North Korea.  Good luck to your
    organizaion!   You'll need it!

    P.S.: Is the CPUSA already organizing a solidarity committee
    with the Senderistas?
