Roll Out the Red Carpet

RADOSH CLAIMS THAT "the blacklist was a godsend". And that, far from a curse on our lives, the House UnAmericans gave communists (defined exactly as what and so what?) a "new life". For sure, the Red Purge and blacklists gave us a 'new life', all right. I'm glad Radosh missed the party. It wasn't a whole lot of fun. Radosh's captive mind still seems to believe that the American slaves of Soviet Stalinism built unions, fought race discrimination and laid their lives on the line as part of a wily plot hatched in the Kremlin. Yes, sure. He also ignores HUAC's Jew-baiting under cover of sniffing out Reds. Talk about revisionist history!
