WINGNUT PARANOIA

UPDATE: The caller may have gotten the story from Free Republic.

I caught some of Billy Cunningham's Sunday radio show and one of the callers went on a diatribe about how Leon Panetta is actually a Marxist who once worked for the Institute for Policy Studies. The IPS is a liberal group formed in the early 60s and has nothing to do with Communism and the caller offered no evidence to support his claim. A subsequent caller told Billy that the Panetta story was scary and I guess that's the whole point: keep the base energized through fear.
