Re: There is more than a passing similarity between Joseph McCarthy and Ted Cruz, between McCarthyism and the Tea Party movement. The Republican Party survived McCarthyism because, ultimately, its excesses caused it to burn out. And eventually party elders in the mold of my grandfather were able to realign the party with its brand promise: The Republican Party is (or should be) the Stewardship Party. The Republican brand is (or should be) about responsible behavior. The Republican party is (or should be) at long last, about decency.

What a long way we have yet to go.

Gadzooks, doesn't John G. Taft realize that even while he was a drunk, Joe McCarthy was right about the Communist influence taking hold in American Government. He was like Paul Revere crying, "The Redcoats are coming! The Redcoats are coming!"

Look at how a single complaint allows the doing away with traditions and morals handed down to us from hundred of years of our history. Look at the IRS deciding that Liberal Democrat political entities are acceptable and Conservative Tea Party ones are not. Look at the EPA issuing rules with the force of law that tell folks how to live and use their land all without any an direct involvement from Congress. Look at Obamacare being the law of the land via a re-write by Chief Justice Roberts and forcing people to buy something just 'because' they exist.

Ted Cruz is sober and like Paul Revere, except he is crying, "The Redcoats are here! The Redcoats are here!"

John G. Taft may proclaim "I AM a genetic Republican." Yet in truth, first and foremost, John G. Taft... AM a Liberal with a capital 'L' who marches with the Democrats rather that the Grand Old Party of his ancestors.

No, John G. Taft, you do not have a long way yet to go... you have already crossed the aisle to stand with your left wing brethren--

And John G. Taft belongs to ALL of their little clubs you can be sure— so THEY couldn’t be the problem now could they?

Not someone who’s a member of my club. My Progressive conservative club...LOL. What a joke this person is, so naturally the NYTimes in its doddering out of touch aging decline, publishes this covering screed for the Christies of the world.

To include McCarthy in an apologia at this point with all the confirmed FACTS about the Communists exposed— is quite simply laughable. Except the dude believes it. And Jeb Bush gave Hitlery Clintoon a Liberty medal— Honest. to. God.
New World national socialist order. Taft— for God’s sake.
