    I will never support anyone who thinks he can bulldoze over the rights and freedoms we Americans cherish.  That's what McCarthy did.  You are misguided to think any part of that is "right".  It's right-wing, not right.

    You mean about Communism?

    Yes...the US shouldn't be Communist.

    As far as witch hunting...that's something a Communist would do.

    He was right. Sen. McCarthy was an American hero. We need someone brave like him today. Except this time, they need to finish the job.

    That fat dumb POS was FAR Right.  The only good thing he ever did was kill himself through his alcohol and morphine addictions.

    Yes, far far right.  Communist ideas really do threaten your evil empire.

    No, McCarthy was an antifreedom loser. The socialists were right.
