Check out the Sedition Act, the Espionage Act, the American Protective League and the Palmer Raids under Woodrow Wilson. Research the Overman Committee. How about Samuel F. Dickstein, a paid agent of the NKVD that helped establish the House Special Committee on Un-American Activities (1934-1937) Read through the Smith Act of 1940, passed under FDR. The McCarran Act of 1950, passed by a Democrat-controlled Congress over Truman's veto is always an attention-grabber - ya just gotta love that concentration camp clause!. Bear in mind, one of his co-sponsors championed making make mere membership in the Communist Party a felony in 1954 (Hubert Humphrey). Never overlook the fact that in it's 37 years' of operation, the House Un-American Activities Comittee was chaired by Democrats for 33 of those years.
Like I said, it's not surprising.
