PC, what you wrote is 100% accurate, and I have a buck 3.80 that says, "there isn't a lefty on this board that knew this!" Also, it is also why the left HATED Nixon so much long before Watergate. Nixon was one of the main people that brought Hiss down, and rewrote History more accurately that at that time....the godfather of liberalism........had been under the control of Russia unwittingly; and we all know who I am talking about-)
Bet they also don't know that when Hiss was revealed as Stalin's agent.....Roosevelt promoted him!!!!!
Now I didn't know that one! Link that if you get a chance.
Leftists need to know what actually went on, how much PROPAGANDA Roosevelt had to fight to even get the US in the war, and then once there, the Kremlin had his ear almost as much as our government.
The major player in the Alger Hiss saga was fellow Communist, Whitaker Chambers. In his book, Witness, Chambers explains is disillusionment as follows. In 1938, he determined not only to break with the Communist Party, but to inform on the Party when he could. The reason was that he was informed that Stalin was making efforts to align with Hitler, in 1939, and “from any human point of view, the pact was evil.”
As Hitler marched into Poland, Chambers arranged a private meeting with Adolf Berle, President Roosevelt’s assistant Sec’y of State. Chambers detailed the Communist espionage network, naming at least two dozen Soviet spies in Roosevelt’s administration, including Alger Hiss.
Berle reported this to Roosevelt, who laughed, and told Berle to go f--- himself. (Arthur Herman, Joseph McCarthy: Reexaming the Life and Legacy of America’s Most Hated Senator, p. 60)
No action was taken, and in fact, Roosevelt promoted Hiss: named him sec'y-general for the new UN in San Francisco.
Almost a decade later, Chambers was called before the HUAC and named Hiss as a Soviet agent. Hiss sued Chambers, at which time Chambers presented “… four notes in Alger Hiss's handwriting, sixty-five typewritten copies of State Department documents and five strips of microfilm, some of which contained photographs of State Department documents. The press came to call these the "Pumpkin Papers"(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whittaker_Chambers#.22Pumpkin_Papers.22) And, of course, all doubt was removed in 1995, when the Venona Soviet cables were decrypted.
Instead of this, government school teaches that Senator McCarthy was baaaaddddd...and ruined innocent lives.
I love asking Liberals to name any such innocent lives ruined.
They can't.
Good stuff PC. Leftists always want to bend history, and I guess the saying is true that---->the victor always dictates what history says.
I probably won't be around when the history books are written on Obama, but they will not be kind to him unless.............Israel collapses without war to those Islamists who are radical, and Iran leaves us alone; and I do not think either of those scenarios is going to happen.
We all await a Trump presidency with fingers crossed.
Agreed PC. After a lot of thought on the matter, I don't think he was the best choice to fix what is broken, but I believe he might have been the only Republican choice that could have won because of the blue collar workers. He was the only one courting the blue collar vote of the Repubs, and his victory came because of the blue collar states he carried.
