By Alan Caruba In his extraordinary book, “Dupes: How America’s Adversaries Have Manipulated Progressives for a Century”, the historian, Dr. Paul Kengor, stated in his introduction that “We now know that American Communists and their masters in Moscow were acutely aware that they could never gain the popular support they needed to enlist the support […]
By Alan Caruba Norman Thomas, a U.S. Socialist Party candidate for president, once famously said, “The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” Thomas ran for […]
By Alan Caruba After you’ve read history for a number of years, you begin to realize that the world goes crazy every so often. People and nations just lose their wits.

By Alan Caruba “Exactly thirty years after Bolshevism consumed St. Petersburg and Moscow, it created a firestorm in Hollywood and Washington, D.C. In October 1947 the U.S. Congress held dramatic hearings on the subject of Communist infiltration in Hollywood.” Now, decades after repeated attacks on U.S. embassies, U.S. Marines in Beirut, the USS Cole, and, […]
By Alan Caruba I have known a few Communists in my time. The worst of them are the unrepentant ones, still aglow from the 1960s and 70s when the college campuses and streets were filled with protesters of every description. Others have unhappy memories of the FBI keeping track of them. The best of them […]
By Tom McLaughlin “What is communism?” I asked the class after writing the word on the board. “I’d like to find an unbiased definition. One girl was looking in the glossary of her textbook for a definition. “I have one,” she said. “Okay,” I said, nodding to her. “‘Communism: economic system in which all property […]
By Alan Caruba It is no accident that April 22, Earth Day, is also the birth date of Vladimir Lenin, an acolyte of Karl Marx, the lunatic who invented communism as an alternative to capitalism. Earth Day is naked communism. To begin, it substitutes a worship of the Earth, Gaia, for the worship of God, […]
By Alan Caruba If you felt a frisson of fear on news that the Senate had passed Obamacare the day before Christmas, then you now know what it was and is like to live in a dictatorship. The voice of the People was ignored in a demonstration of raw political power. There was a time […]
By Alan Caruba I never cease to marvel at the environmental alarmists who create one “crisis” after another using wretchedly bad “science” to support their scams. On Tuesday, November 24, the Global Footprint Network is going to “release new data on the Ecological Footprint of 100 nations and humanity as a whole, and the current […]

The right has opposed Obama and the left has supported him, on the mistaken belief that Obama was a socialist. I have hesitated to call it as I see it for fear of being labeled a “paranoid,” but. Well now the cat is out of the bag, and media arms of both the right and […]
The other day Dr. Zero posted a thoughtful, well reasoned essay extolling the virtues of Big Business versus Big Government on one of my favorite sites, HotAir. The argument posited by Dr Zero is one of a battle that has raged across the planet since the turn of the last century. However, the American left […]
THE FOUNDATION “Go on, then, in your generous enterprise with gratitude to Heaven for past success, and confidence of it in the future. For my own part, I ask no greater blessing than to share with you the common danger and common glory … that these American States may never cease to be free and […]
My county tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty, Of thee I sing. Second only to Life, Jefferson listed liberty as one of the aims of American Independence, and yes, a God given right. Liberty is to the human spirit what air is to the human body. We inhale it’s fragrance and revel in it’s […]
By Ridge (The Australian Labor Party share the same Political ideals as the US Democratic Party) Australians fell hook line and sinker for the “Need for change” mantra (code for Communism.. oops sorry Socialism) in November 2007, the UN and its Australian lick spittle lackey, Dear Leader Lu Kewan aka Kevin Rudd are starting to […]
Exclusive: Could Barack Obama be a Fabian Socialist? Sandra Carney Who is Barack Obama? No one seems to have a proper handle on this guy, yet millions of Americans are going to vote for a man about whom we have virtually no knowledge. In the waning days towards November 4th, voters should ask what his […]
Obama recalled the Berlin Airlift of 1948 during his dramatic speech in the German capital last week. The airlift was an early & critical success for the West in the Cold War. It's relevant to today, the war in Iraq & the free world's conflict with radical Islam. But he misinterpreted the lessons learned! Maybe to suit his own agenda?
Nobel Peace Prize winner Jimmy Carter is spending quality time with terrorists again THE FOUNDATION “It is the madness of folly, to expect mercy from those who have refused to do justice; and even mercy, where conquest is the object, is only a trick of war; the cunning of the fox is as murderous as […]
