Joseph McCarthy is one of the greatest men who kept up the fight against godless pinko communists. Do you agree?

Every time Caliph Obama sneaks another rat-bastard Communist like Van Jones or Anita Dunn into some position in his regime, Joe McCarthy is vindicated.

We not only desperately need MORE Joe McCarthy's, but we need to re-establish the House Un-American Activities Committee and the Senate Internal Security Committee.

A truly great man, defending us from the Communist, anti-freedom ideals of free speech, free thought, and freedom to assemble.
Truly great.

Heh, yeah, right. And fostered an atmosphere of fear so thick that you couldn't get people to sign their names to the Bill of Rights. Well, done, Senator.

The two counts on which the Senate ultimately voted were:

- That McCarthy had "failed to cooperate with the Subcommittee on Rules and Administration," and "repeatedly abused the members who were trying to carry out assigned duties..."
- That McCarthy had charged "three members of the [Watkins] Select Committee with 'deliberate deception' and 'fraud'...that the special Senate session...was a 'lynch party,'" and had characterized the committee "as the 'unwitting handmaiden,' 'involuntary agent' and 'attorneys in fact' of the Communist Party," and had "acted contrary to senatorial ethics and tended to bring the Senate into dishonor and disrepute, to obstruct the constitutional processes of the Senate, and to impair its dignity."[92]

On December 2, 1954, the Senate voted to "condemn" McCarthy on both counts by a vote of 67 to 22.

Now I just came back from vacation and discovered the new system, so if I'm not allowed to say this here you are free to have a mod delete it or you can report it to a mod and I'll deal with it. McCarthy ruined the lives of many, and the most of the "pinko commies" that he and Richard Nixon, "investigated" where African-Americans and Jews, now I'm not denying that maybe some of them where communists, in fact some where, but that does't justify ruining all the people's, who actually weren't commies, lives. That is all I have to say, and like I said, if this is't allowed here you are free to report it. EDIT:
