He's not the same guy who co founded Vietnam Veterans Against the War.

He's a company man now and a lot of people feel let down by it.

They have to show publicly they follow the system. Do you remember when he spoke truthfully and sincerly on Israel as an "apartheid stae at risk"? What did he got for having been outt of the MS way? A huge backclash! So Its only stategic. He often show who relly he is....but it ends with a forcefulled apology to stop the polemic.

BTW he didn't cofounded VVAW. He joined it only. Then he became its spokesman.

Simply because he doesn't agree with what you do and he would not handle things the way you would, does not mean he has abandoned his ideal.
