Beck's McCarthy Awakening

Glenn Beck has beseeched us not to compare him to McCarthy. He accused Anthony Weiner of using Joe McCarthy “tactics” when Weiner launched his unsuccessful and short lived smear campaign against Beck’s sponsor, Goldline.

Beck, like too many commentators who ought to know better, has long spewed the entirely false narrative about Senator Joe McCarthy. Until his recent McCarthy Awakening.

Liberals have been embarrassing themselves for decades with this McCarthy business. Point out an unsavory association, and they squeal like stuck pigs about the scourge of McCarthyism. In the mind of the liberal, Senator McCarthy was a deranged conservative finding imaginary communists under every rock and creating the fiction of the Red Menace. Note: they have the same attitude today about radical Islam.

Beck has been a favorite target of ignorant liberals who spit “McCarthyism” the same way they do “racism”. Beck’s fact-based exposes on communists in the Obama administration drives the left to use what they consider among the most vile of invectives.

Appallingly, too many conservative commentators share the left’s abysmal dumbness about the truth regarding the late Senator.

Liberals, evidently, have not yet been brought up to speed on the Venona project and other new information. Obama refers to McCarthyism as “cowardice” in Dreams. McCarthy didn’t vote “present” on matters of national security.

Isn’t his show on opposite Beck now? I like Church too.

[MozarkDawg]

M Stanton Evans is a national treasure. I hope Beck has him on often.

What fascinated me, hearing about how the official transcript of the Yalta meeting was edited, he dug deep and found the minutes with that incredible bit from Roosevelt, "willing to give up" millions of Jews to the commies.

Blacklisted by History”.. Looks like an interesting book.It will make you hate the democrats even more than you do now

[Irenic]

I agree, I love his personalty!

He gets me thinking and can cause me to laugh until tears.

I hope his docudramas catch on more, they’re fantastic!

Road to Independence is a great one to listen to while traveling for the 4th, or even sitting around the grill knockin’ back a few.

Sorry, I’m just a huge Church fan! :)

The Communist Takeover Of America - 45 Declared Goals
From Greg Swank, 12-4-2

You are about to read a list of 45 goals that found their way down the halls of our great Capitol back in 1963. As you read this, 39 years later, you should be shocked by the events that have played themselves out. I first ran across this list 3 years ago but was unable to attain a copy and it has bothered me ever since. Recently, Jeff Rense posted it on his site and I would like to thank him for doing so. http://www.rense.com

Communist Goals (1963) Congressional Record--Appendix, pp. A34-A35 January 10, 1963

Current Communist Goals EXTENSION OF REMARKS OF HON. A. S. HERLONG, JR. OF FLORIDA IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Thursday, January 10, 1963 .

Mr. HERLONG. Mr. Speaker, Mrs. Patricia Nordman of De Land, Fla., is an ardent and articulate opponent of communism, and until recently published the De Land Courier, which she dedicated to the purpose of alerting the public to the dangers of communism in America.

At Mrs. Nordman's request, I include in the RECORD, under unanimous consent, the following "Current Communist Goals," which she identifies as an excerpt from "The Naked Communist," by Cleon Skousen:

[From "The Naked Communist," by Cleon Skousen]

1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.

2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.

3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.

4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.

5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.

6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.

7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.

8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev's promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.

9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.

10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.

11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo.)

12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.

13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.

14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.

15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.

16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.

17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.

18. Gain control of all student newspapers.

19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.

20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions.

21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.

22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms."

23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. "Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art."

24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.

25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.

26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy."

27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious crutch."

28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state."

29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.

30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man."

31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the "big picture." Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.

32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture--education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.

33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.

34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.

35. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.

36. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.

37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business.

38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat].

39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.

40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.

41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.

42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use ["]united force["] to solve economic, political or social problems.

43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.

44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.

45. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction [over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction] over nations and individuals alike.


Note by Webmaster: The Congressional Record back this far has not be digitized and posted on the Internet.

It will probably be available at your nearest library that is a federal repository. Call them and ask them. Your college library is probably a repository. This is an excellent source of government records. Another source are your Congress Critters. They should be more than happy to help you in this matter. You will find the Ten Planks of the Communist Manifesto interesting at this point.

Webmaster Forest Glen Durland found the document in the library.

So. How many of their goals AREN'T achieved yet?

[MileHi]

I walked into B&N and bought Patriots History a few weeks ago. They had it in stock. Had to make them order Unintended Consequences back when. I love doing that to them!

[historyrepeatz]

"It will make you hate the democrats even more than you do now."

I don't think that's possible.

[uncbob]

I don't think that's possible.

Either did I until I read the book and realized their lies smears etc etc were even worse back then

[SUSSA]

Roosevelt was a real POS. His wife was worse.

[andy58-in-nh]

Regardless of how demonstrable or obvious it is, the truth never suffices to destroy the myths of the Left. Articles of faith do not easily bend to objective reality nor do they yield to empirical data. In this case, the myth of McCarthyism is not only central to the American Left's world view, but serves an important purpose as a rhetorical weapon to be used whenever and wherever a conservative challenges a liberal's loyalties, no matter how obvious the anti-American expression of the latter.

P.S. - I just started reading A Patriot's History. Great so far!

[pyx]

Would someone please post a complete copy of the actual minutes (in PDF) taken by Secretary Of State Edward Stettinius, Jr. of the Yalta Conference that was held February 4, 1945 through February 11, 1945 ? Apparently, there is a heavily edited and redacted version floating around, that would definitely not help.

On the Glenn Beck program from Thursday June 24, 2010, guest and author of the book, 'Blacklisted by History', M. Stanton Evans.

In the minutes recorded by Secretary of State Edward Stettinius, Jr. FDR is quoted as actually saying that FDR is willing to turn over America's six million Jews. This would be a vital document that must be preserved and is in Secretary of State Edward Stettinius, Jr. actual minutes.

[pissant]

I remember Beck’s ignorant digs at that uber patriot, Joe McCarthy. Beck has been reading history now for just a very few short years. He has much to learn.

[Pardeeville Liberator]

Joe McCarthy was the best Senator I ever had.

[Boucheau]

Woohoo! Call me tickled pink by this thread, FReepers, and Glenn Beck.

It’s happened a few times now that just when I have given up on Beck for something, he comes blazing back with a home run.

We’re looking at the past with all of this, but remember, we’re looking there so that we better understand what the communists are still doing to us today.

They will never give up, and we must never give up fighting them.

They win when we let them, period.
