Re: Just Wait!

NormanS: You might want to check these links. Joe McCarthy was anything but harmless. He ruined the careers of many Americans. Check out these links:

»www.nps.gov/archive/elro/glossary/huac.htm

»en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_McCarthy

If you have a chance, watch the movie: Good Night and Good Luck. It reveals how Edward R. Murrow ended Joe's tyranny.

Please re-read my comments. Sen. Joe McCarthy was a Senator, not a Representative. He had zip-all to do with the HCUA (your first link). That was damaging, yes. But not his baby.

The list he gave in his "Wheeling" speech (your second link) was not a black list, per se. He gave speeches (demagogue). His worst acts were investigations of VoA and IIA. He had nothing to do with what the HCUA did, or what happened in Hollywood.
