?? BLACKLISTS ??
The irony of it all.
Hazing by the Donkey fraternity.
Socialists despise questions or dissent from outsiders. Any questioning or deviation from the Party line is viewed as traitorous. They would kill you if they could get away with it. They will do all they can to shut you up and marginalize you.
I take extreme exception to the term “McCarthyite”.
I know it is a rhetorical tool used on both sides of the political spectrum, but Joseph McCarthy should be venerated as an American hero.
The same way Donald Trump is hopefully buying us time as a nation, Joseph McCarthy bought us time in his multi-year campaign againt communists in the Federal Government. He personally made Communism disreputable (as it damn well should be) and delayed the onset of Leftist radicalism for at least a decade and a half.
It wasn’t until the late Sixties or early Seventies that they began to crawl back out of the woodwork into the light of day, and look where we are now.
I am formulating a thread that is going to compare Joe McCarthy and Donald Trump, as there are many similiarities, not only in personal temperment, but in both the public scourging by powerful forces.
The GOP is a total waste...we need a new party for Trump. voters

The problems Americans face should be obvious to everyone left and right and everyone should agree they need to be solved.
If people don't want to solve them, such as illegal immigration, those people clearly have an agenda outside that of the American people.
Yes. We need a two party system, and the Uni-party that we have now needs opposition. A new party that really emphasizes the Constitution, rights of the people, and the virtues of smaller government would be nice. The GOP isn’t the party I need.
They WOULD kill you if they COULD get away with it???
Nope!!
They “DO” kill you where/when they “CAN” get away with it!!
I have felt that way for some time, that the Republican Party has abused, ignored, and worked against the interest of their base...often (and disgustingly) with defiant openness. I “identify” with Republicans only in that I do not see any real alternative.
When I see someone who identifies with “Independent”, it is usually one of three things, none of which has a home: A Leftist who doesn’t want to be identified as a Leftist, a Republican who really is a Leftist, or the polyglot of other things such as Libertarians and such, none of which I subscribe to.
I am reminded of the story about Reagan. When asked for his Cold War strategy, Reagan said: "We win". That sort of resolution was the key. It was more important than the nuts and bolts of any strategy.
Illegal immigration is either a problem, or it's not. If it is a problem, then the strategy is: "We end it". Only Trump seems to approach problems this way.
"Do you believe illegal immigration is a problem or not?"
They could say no and equivocate but if they say yes, then Trump is in control of finding solutions.
“All the leftist masks are now off: the Democrats have unmasked their true socialist visage, and the fake news media has unmasked its longstanding alliance with the Democrats. “
The Cold Civil War is ON.
Agree 100%, the man is a hero.
Way, WAaaaaay ahead of his time.
Yet fox rushed to the aid of CNN and little Jimmy.
And if I am elected
I promise the formation of a new party
A third party, the Wild Party!
I know we have problems,
We got problems right here in Central City,
We have problems on the North, South, East and West,
New York City, Saint Louis, Philadelphia, Los Angeles,
Detroit, Chicago,
Everybody has problems,
And personally, I don’t care.
Joseph McCarthy, what he did, and his crucifixion and eternal damnation at the hands of the left were a milestone in my acceptance of what politics is.
Thank you.
“After America was attacked on December 7th, 1941, Joseph McCarthy enlisted in the Marine Corps. He served his country honorably, flying eleven missions and earning a Distinguished Flying Cross award.”
A TRULY great American.
