Mine, too. I’m presently re-reading Paul Kengor’s book (The Communist) about Frank Marshall Davis. Yeah, it has. I ordered the Mad Mens last year & when they get to the 60s, it really jogged my memory about some of the things that happened (I don’t think they were necessarily trying to, but my mom & grandparents commented on them. Yikes, they hated the Smothers brothers & I never watched Bullwinkle). As I was growing up, I was really conscious- or maybe sensitive to, this stuff underlying what was going on (the “anti-war” movement). I wouldn’t say I was “fearful” of communists- I somewhat thought they’d gone away, too, but I was only half surprised about 0bama. I knew what a duck looked like.
I am surprised it seems to be- or it is, so metastatic.

I’ve seen it, but it’s been more than a year ago. Excellent movie!

Yes. The seeds were planted slowly and it all came together quickly with Obama.

We watched TV but weren't addicted to any particular program. Mom hated the Smothers Brothers. We watched Red Skelton and Ed Sullivan.
