I watched the McCarthy hearings on TV in the 1950s. I recall "McCarthyism", the word that CP/USA coined.

Once talk of these hearings began I predicted that the Obama Administration pukes would squawk about being victims of "McCarthyism."

The new HUAC except this time it's Holder's Un-American Activities Cabal (HUAC).

RE: HUAC

Just for the record because I mentioned Senator McCarthy and the House Committee on Un-American Activities above: HCUA is connected to Senator McCarthy only to the extent that CP/USA and the pinko com-symps railed against both and targeted both for destruction. HUAC is of course a pejorative term coined by CP/USA to imply a House UnAmerican Activities Committee (HUAC).

Of course the likes of wiki-graffiti prefer HUAC but I believe that wiki-graffiti at least mentions the real name for the committee.

I recall watching in 1953 when Edward R. Murrow loosed the MSM on Senator Joe McCarthy stating that they had nothing to fear, just destroy him (I do not recall the exact wording but the meaning was clear.)
