“…flinging the word “communism” around like parade candy.”
Great simile.
And after observing blocks and blocks of streets lined with smashed, uncollected, and wasted candy in our town the morning after our July 4 parade, I can only hope a similar fate for Trump’s hallow and meaningless words.
With your title, I thought some despicable lowlife had called you a vile name in response to your thought provoking columns. Thought provoking is to be frowned upon. Only believe what our glorious leader says. The religious angle, very thought provoking! Christianity as Communism? Well played Joan!
Also, Keith, it’s possible I have been called the c-word by some lowlifes somewhere but I think they might not be the type to read me in the first place. I appreciate your thoughtful responses.
Thanks, as always, for reading, Keith. I like to point out historical facts that people like to conveniently ignore, like the fact that in the early years of the Catholic Church, popes could marry.
Not apropos, but I recall George F. Will saying that Communism was actually practiced in only two places: Cuba and the English Department at Duke.
Hahahahha. I’m surprised Bill Buckley didn’t say that.

I have noticed the c word surfacing again. Even some our congressional folks are using it. Duh!
They’re just slinging words around recklessly, as per usual.
Wow, really? Leftover candy. I’ve seen a stray piece here or there but never a quantity. More to the point, though, I hope the same thing, Jim.
I believe the Amanas were settled as a communist community too...?
They certainly have elements of it.
