"and their fellow travelers."

Upon hearing the name of Joe McCarthy, a columnist for a major American newspaper said to me, "Shhh. Saying something nice about Joe McCarthy can get you in a LOT of trouble." Are you kidding me? He died in 1957!

For younger readers, Senator Joseph R. McCarthy (R-WI) accused the American government, in particular the State Department, of hiring American communists and Soviet spies. American media at that time vilified and demonized McCarthy. The guy didn't realize the immense forces working against him.

"For my mother Josephine Stanton Evans who knew it all along and for Tierney McCarthy wherever she may be." With those words, M. Stanton Evans dedicated his immense work, "Blacklisted by History", or as Evans puts it, "The untold story of Senator Joe McCarthy and his fight against America's enemies". It's a detailed account of America's pre and post-World War Two years that that names names, something that American media quashed during the McCarthy era.

The influence of Moscow's penetration of our government continues to this day. In 2010 Russian spies were exchanged for an alleged American spy and American media immediately dumped the story. Nobody calls them communists anymore. They're now identified as the Left, Socialists or liberals.

Have you ever driven on a four lane road when all the traffic is in the right lane, leaving the left lane open? Swinging into the left lane, you have an open road before you. Suddenly a car pulls out from the left lane in front of you, slows down, and blocks your progress. I compare the workings of American leftists, liberals and communists to that car.

The interests of the communists in this country are not for we the people but for their international interests and their own pocketbooks. It's quite OK for their "fellow travelers" to financially benefit from government. It's not OK for the rest of us to benefit financially from free enterprise.

Of particular interest to the Polish community is Evans' documentation of the sellout of the Polish government-in-exile during WWII by our own President Roosevelt. It also includes the purloining of reports of Polish-American US Army officers who, as German POWs, witnessed the aftermath of the Katyn Forest massacre of Polish officers/Intellectuals. Their reports, that have since disappeared from our National Archives, directly blamed the Soviets (read Russians).

Unlike Joe McCarthy, it appears Americans are beginning to recognize those forces and their subsequent policies at work against us. Those policies are emanating from our own White House, aided and abetted by their fellow travelers.

It's my fervent hope that the wave I'm beginning to see from right-thinking Americans is able to overcome the immensely powerful forces of propaganda at work against us from within and without our shores.

Prosperity, yes, but for who?

Ya gotta love those Democrats today - they speak with a forked tongue.

Howza 'bout a campaign theme - "If you don't want to prosper, vote for the Left, unless you're a teacher or union member." They're prospering by virtue of a Leftist President funding them from our tax dollars.

One has to read that prosperity via taxpayer money is apparently good for them but prosperity via private enterprise is not good for us.

We have to change the old quote to now read "Black man speaks with forked tongue."

A MOSQUE AND MUSLIM CULTURAL CENTER AT GROUND ZERO?

The descendants of the Confederate States of America in Richmond, Virginia have a street called Monument Avenue. Along this street are statues, or monuments, honoring their Civil War ancestors.

Several years ago a debate raged there when the black community in Richmond successfully waged a war to have a monument to one of their own built there - a black homosexual tennis player named Arthur Ashe, Jr. Not to diminish his professional talent and achievements, but how utterly inappropriate to build a statue to him in that particular location.

City officials in New York City have given their blessing to the construction of a mosque and so-called muslim cultural center at or very near Ground Zero. How utterly inappropriate to build one at that particular location.

Both of the above instances are nothing less than power plays, or as some like to call it, the game of "who's on top?" Unfortunately, neither example took in the feelings of those who opposed it on the grounds of the location being inappropriate. It's kind of like building a McDonalds in a church parking lot.

I can only hope the honest American tradesmen of NYC don't allow this to occur.
