I think he really meant to say Alger Hiss, based on the context in which he said how after the fall of communism some who were not thought to be spys in fact turned out to be. Then again maybe not, as there was a movement to clear the Rosenburg's name by their children that died when Kremlin archives showed that they were spies. In any case, people who are tried on espionage charges and found guilty are a different class, they could be Nazis or even Muslims or Israelis as we have seen. They all deserve to die. But Crazy Uncle Charlie? And what about Red Ted? What would the Village be without him.
