BlackElk, well said re: 290. Also, I do agree that Marxism-Leninism posed an even greater evil. Equally dangerous the modern politicians who revere the commies.
The same individuals who cozy up to Saddam and Arafat and Castro and the like and fret over their care and treatment (ignoring the harsh treatment meted out by Saddam, etc.), were the same ones who, a generation or 2 ago, cozied up to Lenin and Stalin and supported the 'pro-economy' agenda of Hitler. Sadly, this just serves as another confirmation of the infiltration of commies and others of ill-repute in the Vatican, just as they work so hard to infiltrate and push their commie agenda in secular places of power such as the devoted commies in our senate.
