You must be young and not lived during that era. It is a time that I want to forget, a time living in America was an embarrassment. A time the average American was afraid to speak out or be labeled a pinko. It was oppressive and much like living under a dictatorship. However, if you think that this is good and a conservative value, have at it. I for one will never live that way again.
I don't think the posters age is relevant. He/she is uneducated about McCarthy. That shouldn't be the case regardless of age.
And your beloved Ted never even shows up, he has skipped quite a few votes since taking office and he almost never attends committee meetings and hearings.
Reminds me of Obama. At least he doesn't just vote "Present".
Or you can't find any evidence. Normally people on forums jump at the opportunity to present evidence for their case.
Truman. He accused Truman of protecting Communists.
There is a whole list of names whose careers he ruined based on nothing, and you should know some of those names. I could rattle off a dozen, but you sound lazy and I'm not going to do your work for you. Anyone who disagreed with him was accused of being a Communist. Anyone who went to one meeting discussing the topic even if they were uncertain of what the meeting was about, was accused of being a Communist.
Even the Senate censured him.
Look up the word McCarthyism.
And then do some reading because you're sorely lacking in knowledge about an important part of our history.

I'll look up the allegation about Truman. Still, you sound like you just heard this stuff from PBS and are repeating vague information you memorized that you don't even understand.

Are you serious or just new to the country?
EVERYONE 18 and older should know this stuff. It's taught in high school. I'm being vague because you are truly ignorant and I want you to do some work and look it up yourself instead of goading people to give you information that's at your googling fingertips.
If you don't understand what my post meant, you're not going to understand what you're reading about McCarthy, so don't bother if that's the case. I aknowledge that reading comprehension may be an issue.
The ability to interact with others online about politics is ruining the country. I'm a younger guy and I lean towards one side of the scale but it's stupid how intolerant some people are of others who don't agree with them. Posting threads on stupid message boards just to point out things someone can make fun of regarding a certain party is dumb and childish. I mean, have at it, but it won't change a single thing about the party you do or don't like at the end of the day. But that probably isn't the point. The point is probably to try and get as much agreement from people who agree with you and as much anger from people who don't as possible.
He had to be chided before he apologized for his crass words.
That disgusting traitor whose policies have sabotaged the American middle-class and made the poor poorer! that Biden? The one whose policies have killed million civilians around the world that he never shed a tear for as he was sipping champagne at parties paid for by the taxpayer, that Biden?
THE FATHERS SINS WILL BE PAID BY THE SONS. Biden should have read the good book before he polluted the world with his sins. Karma is a beyouch. Too bad the whole dynasty is still here.
