You're quite welcome POF. Shoot me a PM if you find a free moment while reading it, I'd be interested to hear what you think about it. You mentioned being 'flabbergasted' by the revelations in the other books you mentioned and I've been that way often myself. Double Lives will do that too I promise. There were times I wanted to throw the book across the room. It's maddening to know gullible and stupid our countrymen can be sometimes, and infuriating to know how horribly we've been betrayed by those we trusted and admired. Also, in spite of the fact that Munzenberg served a wicked cause, he was so incredibly effective at what he did that you'll find it almost difficult not to have a grudging respect for him.

Nixon was a commie hunter too and look what happened to him.

That's WHY it happened to him.

"These truths are disheartening to me after 40-years of being scoffed at and called paranoid by friends and relatives when I tried to make them see what was happening."

Don't I know. It's sometimes like one of those old low budget horror films, where one person can see the monster and everyone around him is blissfully unaware.

Yep. And I’m having deja vu all over again when I try to warn people about the sneaky “smart growth” proponents of Agenda 21. It’s being implemented right in front of their noses but they’ve been conditioned not to see the elephant in their parlors.

The communist have been patient and the changes they have implemented have been slow and over decades. The socialist,fascist,communist group is waging war against God and in the end will lose.

Every American should watch this video as it lays out the communist agenda and pedigree to Obama. I think most Freepers are aware of the information in this video but it confirms that McCarthy was spot on and how the left have been so effective with propaganda in destroying our culture. Grinding down America

"Who gets to be the scapegoat?"

You touch on something that's extremely important I think. Utopian (eventually totalitarian) political movements invariably find some segment of society to marginalize, and as you say, 'scapegoat.' Hitler had his Jews, Stalin had his Kulaks, and now the utopian monsters in our own government are attempting to do the same thing to free-market capitalists and wealthy people. Though they are as rapacious as all other utopians, and are unequaled at dividing people by race, sex etc., the philosophical bedrock of the American left will always be envy.

It was such a tragedy that Senator McCarthy was driven to an early demise and even yet his name is used by the left. If it was not so, one could laugh out loud at the clumsy lies and posturing of his detractors. Page 244 is one of my favourite pages.

The Tydings Hearings concerning Senator McCarthy.

For there is one Senator Millard Tydings posing with a phonograph. Senator McCarthy had gone to Wheeling West Virgina in 1950. It was freely floated by the leftist press and their lackeys, that he had claimed 205 traitors within the Administration. Old newspapers shown, including the Denver Post quoted the Senator as saying "57 Reds" were within the administration. Tydings admitted under oath he had no such recording of McCarthy, as he indicated that he had. Tydings waffled and said he saw it in print.

The more things change, the more they stay the same. By all means anyone should get a copy. The detailed lists by the authorities released under freedom of information act are of immeasurable importance. I will never understand how people living under the First Amendment to the Constitution and likely living well, could espouse such a perverted cause as communism.

I have read “Double Lives” and given it to several people. It is a great book - showing that an agent of influence like Munzenberg is a thousand time more dangerous than a spy.

I don’t have respect for Munzenberg’s “brilliance” as much as I have disdain, loathing and lack of respect for the idiot “intellectuals” who allowed themselves to be influenced by him.
