A fact from Card-carrying communist appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 7 October 2012 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that during the Second Red Scare, Senator Joseph McCarthy declared that the United States Department of State had been infiltrated by 57 "card-carrying Communists"?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2012/October.

"Card-Carrying" without "Communist"

Is this article about the phrase, "card-carrying", indicating membership in any organization, or the political slur, "Card-Carrying Communist", indicating dedication to the Communist cause? It seemed to be trying to cover both topics, and consequently was confused and imprecise. I have tried to remove all references to the mere phrase, "card-carrying" as irrelevant to the stated topic.
