It sounds like Juan isn’t “black” enough for Georgie Soros. NPR now belongs to Georgie.

An analogy here is the way that Republicans and conservatives were generally tolerant toward McCarthyism between 1950, when Sen. Joseph McCarthy went after the Truman administration and liberals, until 1954 when he attacked the US Army, the respected general George Marshall and even president Dwight Eisenhower himself, in a way that exposed his recklessness and the fact that anyone could be accused of treason.

McCarthy had the names and knowledge of communist spies in the dim administration and state. This came from communication between the Soviets and their spies. So this guy continues to spew the same old lies of the left. To hell with them. So sad they don't like the monster they made.

What the writer doesn’t realize is that liberals have ALWAYS been far left extremists who cannot and will not tolerate anything but the official liberal talking points. And just like when the Russian people bought the lies of the Bolsheviks and got Josef Stalin.

P.S. Juan Williams was one of the useful idiots who bought the flowery platitudes of the “tolerant” left.

Not only that, but Joe Senior, JFK, RFK and lil’ Teddy were all fast friends with Senator McCarthy back then, something you won’t read in a history textbook today.

Well Imus wasn’t on the plantation, so he was fair game.

The first notable one that I remember that got out of the plantation and was totally abused was Clarence Thomas.

Yup.

The VENONA Project proved McCarthy mostly correct.

McCarthy's failing was that he became an alcoholic.

The book Witness by Whittaker Chambers is a must read for anyone interested in this subject.

Alger Hiss should have been hung.

To give you an idea of how far left things have gone, it was the founder of Time Magazine, Henry Luce who paid for the defense lawyers for Whittaker Chambers when Alger Hiss sued him.

Bill Buckley asked Whittaker Chambers to go into business with him and start the magazine National Review. Chambers declined because he thought his reputation would hurt the magazine.

Nope - not even this incident will get Leftists to wake up and smell the reality. Heck, they still think the Dem party and/or Obama cares about them!

$1.8 million from liberal philanthropist George Soros to hire 100 new reporters.

Wow. So NPR shill reporters only get $18,000 per year? That would certainly explain a whole lot, although somehow I find that hard to believe.

Williams has been a longstanding progressive that occasionally tolerates an alternate viewpoint. He's now reaping the results of the progressive mindset where any belief or opinion other than the far left is not tolerated.

PDS (Palin Derangement Syndrome).

Aside from that, however, I think it’s true that there are a lot of “liberals” who have no idea how their vehicle, the Dem party, turned into a raving, America-hating, Third-World oriented Marxist machine, and are just beginning to wake up.

Whether they’re waking up in time, I don’t know. Hopefully, in this election at least they will still be able to vote without Big Hard Left Brother looking over their shoulders - and who knows what little circle they will fill in on their ballots?

The left are such liers. And the propaganda media is their cammo. Generations of Americans brainwashed to hate a patriotic American. D@mn scools.

Thanks for the info Blam. IMHO they all should have been hung. But I am so with you on Hiss. The people of China sold into communist slavery b/c of that rotten b@stard. GERRRR. Makes my blood boil.

RFK even flew to Wisconsin (quietly) for McCarthy’s funeral. McCarthy was the godfather of RFK’s oldest daughter (the one who ran for governor of Maryland and lost).

I believe Eleanor Roosevelt said that Communists were just liberals in a hurry.
