Impeaching George Bush is a damn good idea. But the full page ad in the Jan. 12 New York Times by ImpeachBush.org [2] appears to be a bid by the unrepentantly Stalinist Workers World Party [3] to garner mainstream liberal support, probably to keep pace with the Maoist competition [4]. The ad reads "Articles of impeachment drafted by former Attorney General Ramsey Clark." We have repeatedly noted that Ramsey Clark [5] is a totalitarian pseudo-left huckster who supports fascism [6]. The ad also plugs the March 17 anti-war march in Washington sponsored by WWP's front group International ANSWER [7]. Significantly, it does not plug the Jan. 27 march on Washington sponsored by the rival United for Peace & Justice [8]—which has the usual problems with elitism and timidity, but is, at least, not crypto-fascist.
See our last posts on the anti-war movement [9] and the idiot left [10].
