I forget what public figure said it, but the other day one said that that there is indeed a gay mafia at work when they feel slighted.

The best metaphor for Eich's purge is from Orwell's novel 1984 where it was a crime, a thoughtcrime, to even harbor any idea contrary to Big Brother. What happened to Eich is also little different than the leadership purges in North Korea where even the families of those accused of thoughcrimes against Dear Leader are sent to concentration camps.

Does Mozilla Dumping Its CEO Over Prop. 8/Anti-Gay-Marriage Stance = McCarthyism*?

* Ignoring the fact that MCCARTHYISM is THE ROSETTA STONE OF LIBERAL LIES, in the sense that the word is used above ....

[Terry L Smith]

Yes, and in violation of U.S. title Code 18!!!

Pure hyperbole to compare to McCarthyism. I realize the comparison has to do with the tenacity of those going after Mr Eich. However, as loud and obnoxious as McCarthy was, he was not on a witch hunt as the media still likes to imply.

McCarthy was searching out Communists in our govt. seeking to harm us. History has proved him right. Richard Nixon and Bobby Kennedy actually worked together to out them, too, coming up with Whitaker Chambers (editor of Time) indictment, and ultimately outing Alger Hiss, a high govt official. However, the media STILL makes McCarthy the fall guy, ignoring all the additional evidence on Hiss and others that came out when the USSR fell.

In their own way, rabid homos are getting almost as detrimental to our country.

To answer the headline’s question, no. It equals fascism since it was an action taken by the head fascist at Mozilla, Mitchell Baker.
