What a croc. He may very well have had a few commie names. But he smeared a lot of people for nothing more than being in the entertainment business. That is a fact. He was a despicable little man. The people trying to lynch Cain are no less despicable.

Wise up and give your head a shake. It is no secret that the Communists were attempting to take over Hollywood, and no less than our then-future 40th President experienced that first hand, and fought against it:

"In 1946, Reagan, then a Screen Actors Guild officer, vocally resisted communists as they tried to sway the guild and destroy the stagehands union. (SAG and the stagehands had been bulwarks against party infiltrators.) For this, Reagan became a marked man, and the FBI knew it. In an incident that he disclosed in his memoir — FBI agents appeared at his house on Cordell Drive, informing him of a secret Communist Party meeting where the keynote speech was 'what to do about that son-of-a-bitch bastard Reagan.'"

Senator Joe McCarthy likewise knew and understood (unlike you) that the Communist subversion in America posed a real, not theoretical threat to our national security.

The only thing we agree on is that there are a pack of dirtbags out there trying to lynch Herman Cain. But to invoke what you (and the left) call 'McCarthyism', is wrong, incorrect and misguided. Your view of history is fatally skewed if you buy into the lies that the left have perpetrated regarding one of the greatest Cold Warriors to ever serve in the United States Senate.

Once again, I urge you: give your head a shake and read up on REAL history, not the propaganda that the leftist lamestream media passes off as 'history'.

What is a croc is your pretension to have any knowledge of history - the investigations into the entertainment industry were conducted by the HOUSE Unamerican Affairs Committee. McCarthy was a SENATOR and not involved. McCarthy's allegations and investigations concentrated on communist infiltration of the government.

As to Cain, I do not know whether these accusations are smears or the truth. What I do know is that no accuser has, so far as I can tell, produced a single shred of EVIDENCE to back their allegations, and there are significant reasons to distrust the veracity of each accuser. And the media double standard is sickening. These sorts of allegations against a liberal would be ignored due to the lack of any supporting evidence. It's time for the media to put up (evidence) or shut up.
