How far have we fallen. Communist Goals (1963) - Communist Goals (1963) Documention below ________________________________________ Congressional Record--Appendix, pp. A34-A35 January 10, 1963 Current Communist Goals EXTENSION OF REMARKS OF HON. A. S. HERLONG, JR. OF FLORIDA IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Thursday, January 10, 1963 Mr. HERLONG.

I've seen this 1963 list of Communist goals in the Congressional Record back on WND, I think in an article by Devy Kidd. It's very sobering to realize just how successful they were in co-opting an unsuspecting public (which did not give proper heed to its responsibility to safeguard liberty). The American public is, by and large, incredibly dense (and apparently only getting denser). Were the state schools just that successful in dumbing us down that most no longer have the critical thinking skills to understand and resist skillful manipulators? Or in inculcating apathy in us? And how the ACLU gets away with the policies it continues to advance is just reprehensible... Alas, most of the socialistic muddleheads who have embraced these policies have been conned into thinking that these are the "enlightened" positions of "rational" people...

Sorry, I'll climb off my soapbox now...
