Was Barry considered “off-the-charts brilliant,” a “genius,” one of the best law minds in the country, North American debating champion, etc.? I was just a tyke in 1964, so you’ll have to fill me in.
Dear Struggling with it.
McCarthy WAS RIGHT, as we now know.
At least some of us, perhaps you need to go
back to grade school, although I doubt it
would do you much good with Common Core and all.
What?
The Left's endless quest for multiculturalism has, predictably, ended up facing a culture that wants to kill homosexuals and all those who don't believe in and acknowledge their version of religion.
Even the densest among them are starting to figure out this makes no sense.
Clearly, the “new McCarthyism” is the push to tar good people like Ted Cruz with inapplicable labels in order to marginalize them for saying something that is indisputably true.
Rather than make a comment, I will quote my dad. “Consider the source.”
That isn't the only thing that's beyond your comprehension, Elias.
What we conservatives need to win the nomination is to get as many of our Conservative States together for one big primary.
People who have a reputation for brilliance often let it go to their heads and start getting off script. You might well want your opponent to think of himself as "off-the-charts" brilliant. Encouraging overconfidence could save you some trouble coming up with attacks.
For a liberal the global threats are: global climate change, patriarchy, fracking, white privilege and capitalism. There are no such things as Islamic terrorists, just victims of global climate change, patriarchy, fracking, white privilege and capitalism - so Ted must be wrong.
Yes, Joe McCarthy was right, which makes the rest of the piece pointless.
indeed, I apologize
Yes, he was...and the only thing that has approached "McCarthyism" since has been the "blacklisting" of conservatives/conservative thought by those who have controlled hollywood/media/academia for all the decades since.
Hypocrites of the first order...what else is new.
What they felt was hopeless. But I'm sure that everyone of them was thinking: "God, I wish I had a gun!"
You might want to do a search for "Estrogen in the water supply". Supposedly, we are drowning in the stuff. Women on birth control pills excrete it into the sewage system. Water treatment plants have no way to remove it.
Plus, apparently, other chemicals that make their way into the food/water supply act as synthetic estrogens.
So, I guess the answer to your questions is "yes".
And that is why Obama is going after the Washington Redskins?
The left wants to bury its head in the sand and pretend that Islam is something other than Islam, so they drag up the McCarthy boogieman to demonize enlightened people who understand that Islam is inherently evil and not to be trusted or considered compatible with the values of Western civilization. To justify their buried head position, leftists divide Muslims into categories they can deal with, like moderate, radical, fanatical, fundamental, terrorists, peaceful..., but they can’t tell us how we can know which is which, or how any given Muslim will act at a given time, because Islam makes that unknowable.
The more obvious it becomes that Islam doesn’t mix with Western civilization, the more radical the left will become in its defense of Islam, and the more fanatical they will get in their persecution of enlightened, intelligent people who point out the obvious faults of Islam.
