Your Personal Page is fabulous, BTW. Recommended to all who might read this post.

Your Mom and Dad are the kind of quiet, uncelebrated American heroes who made this country great.

Phyliis Schafly is from my home, St. Louis.

I completed Whittaker Chambers superbly written, cornerstone autobiography this past summer. One can’t really understand fully 20th century American history without reading “Witness”.

I’ll be reading the seminal work on Senator McCarthy soon. Ann Coulter called it the greatest book since the Bible.

Thanks for your kind comments. I agree, and while I don’t look at my parents as being ordinary at all, that is the great thing about this country, is that they WERE ordinary. There are still men and women like them in this country, and as long as we have them, we have a chance.

I think what affected me most about “Witness” was the recognition that the tactics used by the media and the liberals of the day (using the new definition of liberal, not the old) are the exact same tactics used today. Exactly. That, and the fact that McCarthy was right. We DID have Soviet sympathizers and agents riddling our government, verified by the Venona Project. (I have always wondered what kind of access, if any, McCarthy had to that information at the time...)

I will be listening to “Blacklisted by History” on the 20th of this month...:)
