That’s just plain dumb. So you think its my job to defend myself just because some clown accuses me of something? You’re confused. It’s the accusers who must prove their charge. Anyone with a brain gets it. But then I have to take into consideration people like you are Perry, Romney or Gingrich bots. Or, you could be simply a demrat lurker.
Ya’ll have gone to the politics of personal destruction well once to often. You remind me of McCarty in the early 50s. His comet came and went in the space of a few months. What shot it down was one brave man who refused to be intimidated. You should read up on history.

With all due respect, I think it is you who need to read up. The release of the transcripts of the decrypted "Venona Papers" should have removed any lingering doubt in any reasonable person's mind that Joe McCarthy was EXACTLY correct is saying the US Government had been infiltrated by communists and Soviet agents up to the highest levels of the government. You might start with "Venona: Decoding Soviet Espionage in America" which, although showing there was no proof of the treachery of certain persons on McCarthy's various "lists", supports his basic assertion of communist infiltration of the US government.
And, of course, it must be borne in mind that the Venona messages that have been decrypted represent a small fraction of Soviet cable traffic and it is mainly through the mistake of certain Soviet cryptographers in reusing pages of one-time pads that any cables could be decrypted at all.
Once you finish that one, you might also take a glance at "In Denial: Historians, Communism, and Espionage" (by the same authors) that speaks to the liberal revisionist history that you, apparently, have swallowed regarding Senator McCarthy.
