What's good for the goose is good for the gander, don't be selective for what suits your personal viewpoint of politics and ideology. Anne Coulter's revisionist views of McCarthy would hardly qualify as intelligent research in the subject, she's just another pundit, which means employing the otherwise unemployable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081447.post-92161541878460919942011-12-08T14:14:48.138-08:002011-12-08T14:14:48.138-08:00George is right aout McCarthy and misinformation a...George is right aout McCarthy and misinformation about him.

He never presented data/evidence and the only ones who complained he didn't name names were the other knuckle-dragging mouth-breather neaderthals like him. There was no due process and thousands of innocent lives were ruined. Furthermore, it is widely accepted that those who were involved in teh US Communist Party were doing so as a stance against Fascism.<br /><br />Please don't go on about communism in this blog, you know nothing about it. I do. Personally. Family members who lived in communist countries. Friends who did. Some still do. I know what it means. I don't think you do. <br /><br />I stand by my assertion McCarthyism is a valid parallel to what's going on in family law and their duty to BIOTCh, which they themselves can't really quite pin down.

And when he did, the accused really was a commie. McCarthy was more often blamed for refusing to name names of commies.<br /><br />Yes, I've read some of those articles about McCarthy. They always say that he was censured, but not what he was censured for. McCarthy was hated for a lot of reasons, but I do not agree with most of them.Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16032672334544228703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081447.post-42351558776120355522011-12-08T12:59:58.856-08:002011-12-08T12:59:58.856-08:00have a look and you'll see what I mean:

God help you if you question the intent of these good people in family law because they're experts and they're doing it all for the children. <br /><br />What eventually stopped McCarthyism and his Senate committee as well as the House committee on Un-American Activities was broadcasting some of the later hearings as well as sound investigative journalism by the likes of Ed Murrow.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
