Well, I dunno anything about the first part, except in knowing many 
freedom of speech anti-Dworkin activists who are members.  Was this just 
the opinion of members, or party policy?  ::shrug::  Leslie, a 
transgendered person, *is* a major figure there and contributes 
regularly to the newspaper.  So.... perhaps there *is* a division 
therin.  But I like to think that we can't *afford* to divide among 
ourselves, and must seek the good, while trying to reform, or at least 
come to terms with, our diffrences.  The latter bit sounds disturbing, 
but can only be attributed to one person.  And I've only found them to 
consistantly speak about transgender issues at all.  If there are other 
groups that do, however, I *really* wanna hear about 'em and get in 
touch with 'em!
