Re: [Marxism] Betancourt's halo [SIC] under spotlight

[Adam Richmond <adambrichmond@xxxxxxxxx>]

Wow, that was full of unfounded and irrational accusations.

1. "and Adam accepts this as God's own ultimate expose of Betancourt!"

Betancourt exposed herself by politically embracing Uribe and Sarkozy.  

2. "You ought to be deeply ashamed of yourself, Adam, but I assumethe factional 
commitments that lead you to view Betancourt as possessing a "halo" -- 
actually, noone claims that Betancourt is an angel rather than ahuman being -- 
that you are duty bound to remove By Any Means Necessary immunize you against 
second thoughts.

What *are* you talking about?  I don't have "factional" commitments vis a vis 
the Betancourt or the FARC. The bourgeois media handled Betancourt her halo.  
Now, apparently for personal reasons, two hired hands of the US have an axe to 
grind with her.  That's all.  What's your axe to grind with me or what appears 
to be some sort of defense of Betancourt.   

3. " Get a better grip on the class line, Adam. It is not just drawn between 
Colombians who have more money and US plain working-stiffs, who happen to be 
using their "labor power" to invade a country, their "wages" being paid by the 
Pentagon to force a government on Colombia that denies their basic rights.  "

Huh?
