Nancy Pelosi compared Cruz’s behavior to McCarthyism. Growing up in public school history classes, we were led to believe that McCarthy was this idiot Senator with no manners. As an adult, I have to believe that McCarthy was actually a damn good senator. Am I off the mark?

If I may....each and every day that passes, the late Senator Joe McCarthy is being vindicated. His name has been racked through the mud by the same people that are tearing our country apart, today.

He (Senator McCarthy) was spot on from the beginning, for those of you on the Left.

The Venona papers were a collection of Russian telexes back to Mother Russia. They were released in the early ‘90’s due to expiration of security classification. They demonstrated that McCarthy was right in virtually everything he said; Democrats be damned!

As an anti-Commie he was great but on spending he was kind of a Rino. In his early politics he was a New Deal Democrat. He was known as a porker in the Senate. .
