Glenn Reynolds and other ‘anti-idiotarians’ have been direct in confronting antiwar groups for allying themselves with the Stalinist troglodytes of ANSWER. I’ve joined them, both on my blog and in real life, as I’ve made it clear to my antiwar friends who sponsors the demonstrations they are supporting, and the moral devaluation of their case that this alliance causes.
Nathan Newman has risen to this challenge.
In a post tonight, he lays out the thuggish background of a group at the helm of a proposed April 1st pro-affirmative action demonstration in Washington D.C., and challenges his compatriots who support affirmative action to distance themselves from this group, ‘By Any Means Necessary’
Good job, Nathan. Thanks.
It’s great that he’s doing that.
I don’t support AA, but, I completely support what Nathan is doing.

N Newman did one excellent job there.
This is just refutation by denigrationand association – try dealing with the issues.

huh??
I certainly haven’t said anything that would suggest that I do or don’t agree with Nathan, with whom I’m usually somewhat allied.
I have hammered the anti-Iraq folks who ally themselvs with ANSWER, as have others; Nathan did a good deed by bringing this up and saving those who might be supportive of preferences from loising ground because they stand alongside thugs.
No refutation made, none suggested.
