Cheers to NBA Hall-of-Famer Charles Barkley for being an all-too-rare voice of support for gay people in the world of pro sports. Barkley told ESPN’s Chris Berman, “I think if [gay people] want to get married, God bless them.”
And on the same tip, cheers to actor Brad Pitt for stating, in the September 19 issue of Esquire magazine, that “Angie [Angelina Jolie] and I will consider tying the knot when everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able.”

What do we in the Revolutionary Communist Party want people to learn from all that is exposed and revealed in this newspaper?
"What we see in contention here with Jihad on the one hand and McWorld/McCrusade on the other hand, are historically outmoded strata among colonized and oppressed humanity up against historically outmoded ruling strata of the imperialist system. These two reactionary poles reinforce each other, even while opposing each other. If you side with either of these ‘outmodeds,’ you end up strengthening both." |

"In a world marked by profound class divisions and social inequality, to talk about “democracy”— without talking about the class nature of that democracy and which class it serves—is meaningless, and worse. So long as society is divided into classes, there can be no “democracy for all”: one class or another will rule, and it will uphold and promote that kind of democracy which serves its interests and goals. The question is: which class will rule and whether its rule, and its system of democracy, will serve the continuation, or the eventual abolition, of class divisions and the corresponding relations of exploitation, oppression and inequality." |
