Alcoholic and un appealing,he (McCarthy) was ...

Big deal. So's Ted Kennedy.

Teddy Kennedy ,affectionately known as "The Swimmer"?The only thing I regret about McCarthy is that what he was bringing to the public was so important to the nation and he was giving ammunition to all the naysayers and lefty media types to discount the real Red menace we had to fight.He was right.

I always found it interesting that Joe McCarthy's counsel, prior to Roy Cohn, was Teddy's big brother, Bobby Kennedy. Bobby was determined to make a name for himself by helping McCarthy root out the communists but Cohn apparently convinced McCarthy that it would "look better" for his counsel to be a Jew. So Bobby was reluctantly forced out.

History can be full of surprises for those who care about it.
The ignorant, present-day Hollywood scumbags simply have no clue.
