"Do you remember how overbearing, intimidating and feared Sen. Joseph McCarthy became before his crudities and chilling attacks on patriotic citizens was stopped?"

McCarthy doesn't come close to this clown:

"Rep. Barney Frank calls Scalia a 'homophobe'"

I listened to audio today of Barney Frank browbeating Edward Liddy for the names of employees who got bonuses, which Mr. Liddy resisted because of threats against them such as: "...All of the people should be executed with piano wire around their neck..."

Barney Frank wanted Liddy to "Name Names".

We all remember the person who is best remembered for "Naming Names", and that person is the Evil Joe McCarthy.

What these despicable liberals fail to point out is that the people who wanted to "Name Names" (when Joe McCarthy was acting in our best interests back in the early fifties) were LIBERALS. THEY were the ones demanding that McCarthy "Name Names".

McCarthy resisted those demands, because he knew how terrible and complete the power of government could be when brought against people who were neither tried nor convicted.

It was LIBERALS who wanted the names of untried people thrown into the public domain. And here we are, more than fifty years later, and liberals are doing it again.
