Rachel Maddow has engaged in a strange--sinister?--irony.
On her MSNBC show last night, one moment Maddow was condemning the late Senator Joe McCarthy for encouraging people to "turn in their friends" in the entertainment industry. The next moment, Maddow was urging her viewers to . . . turn in someone in the entertainment industry--the animator of Mike Huckabee's history series for kids.

The lefty ignorati have never cared much for facts, and are therefore totally unaware of any distinction between the HUAC and McCarthy’s separate hearings in the Senate.
For those interested in the real story about Joe McCarthy, read M.Stanton Evan’s “Blacklisted by History.” Not only was McCarthy not the evil ogre the left has been successful in characterizing him as for fifty years, McCarthy managed to get hundreds of communists thrown out of federal government and make governing bodies institute measures that made it much tougher for them to infiltrate our governing bodies. In short, the country needed McCarthy. And Rachel Madcow needs to take some history lesssons. McCarthy was a senator and had nothing to do with the HOUSE!!! on Unamerican Activities Commission. Madcow is a dunderhead.
For a comic book format, the drawing is appropriate. However, Huck’s series is animated and the animation is so bad I can’t bring myself to complete the previews.
