Keep thinking of this in light of the current environment.

Are some of these men being Nifonged?

Reminds me of the newspaper ad where many of the faculty assumed the lacrosse players were guilty.

I posted this for the younger generation.

In many ways, McCarthy was correct.

[Arthur McGowan]

McCarthy??? MCCARTHY?????

You call yourself a “conservative”?

Here is the total, revealed by the Soviet archives, of all the people who were FALSELY accused by McCarthy of being Communists:

ZERO.

[Nextrush]

Its Stalinism and Mao’s Cultural Revolution.

Stalin killed his opponents and Mao’s died, too but many in China were reassigned to menial labor during the CR period.

Our “soft totalitarianism” takes people’s jobs away if they are suspected of or implicated in sex related matters.

[Bikkuri]

McArthy was correct in 99% of his suspicions... The Venona Project proven that.

I predict that between now and NOV 2018 every Republican candidate seeking election to public office, from dog-catcher on up, will be accused of sexual misconduct.

Accused of creating a bogus Red Scare and smearing countless innocent victims in a five-year reign of terror, Senator Joseph McCarthy is universally remembered as a demagogue, a bully, and a liar. History has judged him such a loathsome figure that even today, a half century after his death, his name remains synonymous with witch hunts.

But that conventional image is all wrong, as veteran journalist and author M. Stanton Evans reveals in this groundbreaking book. The long-awaited Blacklisted by History, based on six years of intensive research, dismantles the myths surrounding Joe McCarthy and his campaign to unmask Communists, Soviet agents, and flagrant loyalty risks working within the U.S. government. Evans’s revelations completely overturn our understanding of McCarthy, McCarthyism, and the Cold War.

Since the Satanists in the Democratic Party like the way things appear backwards maybe they should call them Yksniwel Acinom, which is Monica Lewinsky backwards.

[ballplayer]

Read Whitaker Chambers book,Witness,then look at the Venona papers to see if McCarthy was right

[Jim Noble]

McCarthy was right.

[a fool in paradise]

NONE of this will make (liberal) textbooks. The talking point will be about Republicans like Donald Trump, Clarence Thomas, and Roy Moore and a rise in “rape culture” on campuses because of “toxic masculinity” and “patriarchal hegemony”.

Here’s my message to the younger generation:

Johnny’s in the basement
Mixing up the medicine
I’m on the pavement
Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he’s got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off

Look out kid
It’s somethin’ you did
God knows when
But you’re doin’ it again
You better duck down the alley way
Lookin’ for a new friend
The man in the coon-skin cap
By the big pen
Wants eleven dollar bills
You only got ten

Maggie comes fleet foot
Face full of black soot
Talkin’ that the heat put
Plants in the bed but
The phone’s tapped anyway
Maggie says that many say
They must bust in early May
Orders from the D.A.

Look out kid
Don’t matter what you did
Walk on your tiptoes
Don’t try “No-Doz”
Better stay away from those
That carry around a fire hose
Keep a clean nose
Watch the plain clothes
You don’t need a weatherman
To know which way the wind blows

Get sick, get well
Hang around a ink well
Ring bell, hard to tell
If anything is goin’ to sell
Try hard, get barred
Get back, write braille
Get jailed, jump bail
Join the army, if you fail

Look out kid
You’re gonna get hit
But users, cheaters
Six-time losers
Hang around the theaters
Girl by the whirlpool
Lookin’ for a new fool
Don’t follow leaders
Watch the parkin’ meters

Ah get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance, learn to dance
Get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts
Don’t steal, don’t lift
Twenty years of schoolin’
And they put you on the day shift

Look out kid
They keep it all hid
Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don’t wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals
Don’t wanna be a bum
You better chew gum
The pump don’t work
’Cause the vandals took the handles

After Russia declassified and released Soviet spy documents back in the 1990’s, we now know that McCarthy was actually correct. The federal government actually did have scores of communist spies.

[Fiji Hill]

The term refers to U.S. Senator Joseph McCarthy and has its origins in the period in the United States known as the Second Red Scare, lasting roughly from 1947 to 1956 and characterized by heightened political repression as well as a campaign spreading fear of Communist influence on American institutions and of espionage by Soviet agents.

There was no "heightened political repression" in this country unless you were a Soviet agent or a fellow traveler. And from what we now know, we shouldn't have been scared during the Second Red Scare--we should have been downright terrified.
