Yet as has been revealed for some time now McCarthy was correct.
Communism - McCarthy Was Right
Outrageously even to this day the democats/liberals/socialists/marxists/communists continue to villify and lie about him despite the fact they should know better and perhaps they do but as per sop they never let the truth get in the way of their narrative.
The Vindication of Joseph McCarthy - The Objective Standard
On This Day: McCarthy warns of communists in State Department
McCarthyism was the practice of making accusations of subversion or treason without proper regard for evidence. Guilt by association was the rule of day. Hundreds of Americans were accused of being "communists" or "communist sympathizers"; they became the subject of aggressive investigations and questioning before government or private panels, committees, and agencies. Suspicions were often given credence despite inconclusive or questionable evidence, and the level of threat posed by a person's real or supposed leftist associations or beliefs were often wildly exaggerated. Books that might be interpreted as leftest were pulled from shelves. Plans for movies that might be viewed as pro-communist were pulled from production or delayed. Teachers were warned about comments in the classroom that might be considered anti-American. Americans were encourage to report their friends and neighbors for comments that might indicate a communist leaning. This was an era when people were punished not necessarily for what they did but for their beliefs and opinions, a sad period for freedom in America. Thankfully, it only lasted a few years.
Bullshit!!!
Morons like the above have no problem bowing down to a liberal myth that sacrificed the truth for the benefit of leftwingers etc.etc. they need to apologize for all that and recognize Joe McCarthy for his heroism and try and understand the calamitous injustice that is currently being inflicted on America...........
I speak of...................The 'racism' hysteria which is currently afflicting America comes from the left of course...as a fanatic political mob sees racists behind every door. Their paranoia is not harmless, as they use the racist bogeyman to intimidate political adversaries – and sometimes erstwhile friends – while seeking to silence political dialogue.
This current insanity revealed its full absurdity via the ACLU’s Twitter stream, which had the temerity to post a picture of an adorable young toddler holding an American flag and a doll with the tag line “This is the future that ACLU members want.” Because the girl happens to be blonde and Caucasian, the ACLU was promptly attacked – the ACLU!
Immediately the politically correct rage mob commenced a digital protest led by credentialed injustice professionals such as Professor Nyasha Junior of Temple University who posted, “A white kid with a flag?!” Yes, Professor. In much of America outside of your faculty lounge, young American children waving Old Glory warms the heart and makes us smile rather than prompt thoughts of white supremacy lurking under the sheets.
Come again? This lovely young kid holding a flag equals “white supremacy”? Who even thinks of such things? Answer: the diversity hustlers. Shame on the ACLU, which apparently should have posted a picture of a gender-fluid dark-skinned child, holding a rainbow flag, perhaps with a COEXIST sticker on [gender-neutral pronoun] wheelchair.
Did the ACLU, a group once known for taking brave and unpopular stands, hold its ground or, better yet, simply ignore the online rabble? Sadly, no. The organization shortly responded with a Kermit the Frog image saying “That’s a very good point” and the post “When your followers keep you in check and remind you that white supremacy is everywhere.”
This is not merely social-media silliness it is insanity and a weapon used cynically and viciously -- little girls are apparently acceptable collateral damage -- by the left to isolate and demonize opponents, and particularly President Trump and his supporters. As msnbc's Donny Deustch said of Trump: “He is a racist -- can we just say it once and for all?” Such accusations are not rare. If I had a dollar for every time the mainstream media accused Trump and his voters of racism, I’d be about as rich as the recent Powerball winner.
I believe that people of color, for far too long, have been taken for granted by the Democratic Party. I also believe that the Trump movement represents real policy solutions for the woes of poverty and violence that burden too many Afro-American and Latino citizens. . Yes, today’s liberals are quick to use racism’s terms when it suits their purposes.
One of the main reasons America has succeeded as a country lies is our rejection of the tribalism that afflicts and paralyzes so much of the world. America is an idea, and one open to all who embrace it, regardless of skin color, heritage, or religion.
Instead of allowing a new scourge, this Racist Scare, to corrode our discourse, we must embrace our common American identity, rooted in our best traditions and elucidated in our founding documents. We should be difficult to offend and slow to accuse others of the disease of prejudice. As the incumbent president of the United States explained in his inaugural address seven months ago: “When you open your heart to patriotism, there is no room for bigotry.”
