McCarthy’s crime was being right, and the consequences it had for the “beautiful people”, who only wanted to “help the little guy”. There’s no sorrier hypocrites than the Hollywood Elite, with their smug pronouncements. Now they hug Hugo Chavez.
Amen to that! It's interesting... because that was also "Reagan's crime" only he did it out in front of the American public and the liberal media just couldn't spin all of that "good news" into the demon they wanted to make out of Reagan.
McCarthy's other crime was being from Wisconsin where a deep and abiding affection for socialists, communists and other labor-union sympathizers runs very deep. They were only too happy to dump McCarthy overboard.
