Some caravan members called the anti-war protesters communists and said they were "aiding and abetting the enemy."
Oh...my...goodness. Communists?!? Are these people for real? Are we back in the 1950's, with good ol' Joe McCarthy and the House UnAmerican Activities Committee? It's been said that conservatives lost their political footing when the Soviet Union collapsed, and had to come up with a new "other" to ensure their relevance, and this little tidbit made me believe it. Apparently, some conservatives still think that communists are the other...them and anti-war protesters.
