red-baiting
The cartoon boxley offers up for our delectation (for them as have the stomach to click upon a WND link) suggests that the incumbent president was sympathetic to the East German regime and its sundry barriers. Any rational person who lived through the construction and demolition of that structure (I grant that "rational" excludes the WND staff and cartoonists and apparently many of the site's readers, including our own beloved box) would know that even the most extravagant factions of the American left from the Sixties forward had nothing but contempt for the Soviet model. It's interesting that Obama's foes are apparently still obliged, a year after his election, to have recourse to fantasy charges in their attempts to smear his character: He's a Muslim. He's a "Black Militant." He's an old-line Warsaw Pact Marxist. Box circulates these slurs without intervention of the thought process.
Interesting, though, that the O-man's foes are still relying on lies and hallucinations to get their message out, and on "useful idiots" like box to get the job done?
cordially,
