The list of communist goals referenced here is hardly credible, it wasnt plucked from some Soviet spymaster's briefcase, its from a crank book written by Cleon Skousen. It seems that some people like to quote his book "The Naked Communist" while never mentioning his later follow up book "The Naked Capitalist". He believed the world was run by the Trilateral Commission, the Bank of England and various American "internationalists" like our current President's family. Simply put he was a charter member of the tin foil hat club, read it for yourself and tell me you cant see that. If thats the best defense one can offer for the disgraceful and embarassing public implosion of Joe McCarthy then I ask again, what exactly are you defending? I'd rather be associated with the Party of Lincoln and Reagan than the Party of Nixon and McCarthy.
Typical leftist smear of another good man. Funny how that tinfoil hat smear comes out against anti-communists. Skousen was a senior officer of the FBI, police chief of Salt Lake City and a full professor at Brigham Young University. I found the Naked Capitalist interesting in that Skousen points out that Oswald was a communist fellow traveler and that great effort was put forward to not make such a big deal out of that fact. In fact, the denizens of American Culture are still at it whether it's Ollie Stone's JFK or Clooney as Murrow, they still tow the party line. Face it, McCarthy drunk and paranoid, Skousen and his "tin foil hat", the "spurious" Wittaker Chambers and the rest were right. The were human beings with foibles. Big Deal. Don't make the Perfect the enemy of the Good.
