It will be fun to annoy the progressives I meet with the meaning of the word during the Korean War. Most of them probably won't know that the Progressive Movement began in the 1890's. Come to think of it, I am not sure modern progressives will be annoyed at being called Communist sympathizers I will have to see.

Sorry to split hairs Luigi, but there was a full fledged Marxist movement in America by 1848. The New York Socialist club was a who's who of north eastern city residents. Carl Marx himself was a popular contributor to the NY Post and was reprinted in five other newspapers. The failed Marxist revolution of 1848 resulted in highly educated Germanics fleeing to America and finding a political vacuum that they filled by taking over an old defunct Republican party, and eventually getting a borrowed Whig into the presidency. The roots of American socialism go back farther than most people could imagine. -Anymouse
