Actually, he exposed NO spies. No one McCarthy ever accused was convicted of espinoge.
One thing I've noticed about you, Comrade JoeB Stalin, is that you lie as easily as most people breath.
{We need to remember that during the entire period, from 1947 to 1958, no American citizens were interrogated without benefit of legal counsel, none was arrested or detained without due judicial process, and no one went to jail without trial. As George Kennan, no admirer of the investigations, stated, "Whoever could get his case before a court was generally assured of meeting there with a level of justice no smaller than at any time in recent American history." All through the "worst" of the McCarthy period, the Communist Party itself was never outlawed, membership in the party was never declared a crime, and it continued to maintain public offices, publish books and the Daily Worker, and recruit new members (admittedly a tough sell by then). }
Joseph McCarthy
You're a liar and a scumbag JoeB, in other words, a typical democrat.
A few were convicted of "perjury" when their testimony didn't line up with what Congress claimed...
While you are a stupid man, and thus a leftist, you should know that the HUAC and McCarthy were two distinct, and separate events.
Guy, just because we gave them a lawyer before we ruined their lives doesn't mean what happened wasn't completely terrible to SANE people.
Okay. Let's imagine this. Next election, Republicans get wiped out, and a Liberal McCarthy decides he's going to go after any conservatives...
I mean, as long as you get the same fair treatment accused (not really) Communists got, that's totally fair, right?
And most of these folks weren't even fucking communists, much less spies.
"...before we ruined their lives...."
Who was that again?
