It's a clever picture, but not actually an error. The photograph was taken, as all promo photos are, during a rehearsal.
The water bottle's not in the film.

And doublets - my personal favorite.
Oh yes? McCarthy accused President Eisenhower of being a Communist dupe. Do you agree with him? You can agree that the Communists were a threat to the United States without believing that McCarthy was anything more than a dishonest snivelling alcholic.
In 'Troilus and Cressida', Hector (the one from the Illiad) makes a reference to Aristotle.
"You can agree that the Communists were a threat to the United States without believing that McCarthy was anything more than a dishonest snivelling alcholic."
I certainly agree with that.
McCarthy only loved power. The fact that he chose to gain and exercise that power in the name of a legitimate cause doesn't make him any less a scumbag.
I believe that after WW II Eisenhower's foreign policies left a whole lot to be desired. Why did we not finish the North Koreans? Why did we allow Castro to take control of Cuba? Why did we allow the Soviets to strengthen their stranglehold over Eastern Europe?
What exactly do the release of the Venona papers have to do with McCarthy's character?
