As always, I warn folks new to to BookTV...if you tune in casually you
might get anything ranging from today’s airing of a presenation friendly
to Joe McCarthy...all the way to Code Pink celebrations!
You have been warned!!!
Worth noting that Evans is the guy whose research Ann Coulter used, with permission, when writing Treason. IIRC, Evans claimed that if he had known what Coulter was going to do with his research, he wouldn’t have given permission. I have no idea what to make of that.
-—excellent book—I’m going to give mine to the local library-—
Thanks for posting. I’m definitely going to tune in.
“Red Scare” then
“Red Blight” now
bump for publicity...
now I go to attend to last Thanksgiving Day preparations!
McCarthy’s crime was being right, and the consequences it had for the “beautiful people”, who only wanted to “help the little guy”. There’s no sorrier hypocrites than the Hollywood Elite, with their smug pronouncements. Now they hug Hugo Chavez.
I don’t need a book to know that Senator Joseph McCarthy, God rest his soul, bravely blazed a trail not traveled by the Washington elite, nor their Hollywood comrades. The “Democrat” Congress now seated cannot be described as anything but Communists bent on defeating the Republic.
Book or no book, I watched those Un-American Activity hearings conducted by McCarthy, and I knew he was right on the button in his interpretation of what was going on, and who was doing it. And I’ve experienced the pain of watching the elite take our glorious country down by infiltrating our public school system and sweeping God under the carpet. Because the American people refused to fight it, we are now where we find ourselves today.
So today, on Thanksgiving Day, I hope three hundred million prayers for restoration of our great nation go up to the Living God. And may God bless and protect each and every one of our amazing troops.
On now.
The worm is turning. Nowadays, with the internet and its access to unfiltered information, many hard-wired views of history are going to be threatened. The McCarthy story is just one of them, and it is going to slowly reveal that Joe McCarthy, all his faults notwithstanding, was a powerful force against America’s enemies, and that he was right a lot more than he was wrong.
Thanks for the heads up. It was very informative!
Even PBS had to admit that there were Communist spies operating in America. The “Secret Victories of the KGB” episode of their “Red Files” series (1999) provides details:

Thank you so much for posting this reminder. That was very educational. Thank God we’re living in a time when there are so many ways to disseminate information. I know it really chaps the left to have all their lies exposed.
“The McCarthy Era” is not what we’ve all been told it was:
