Yes of course there's that. But IMO there is the more important Left-wing tactics of Mau-Mauing, threats, and actual violence.
I recall the 1950s when the Soviet-style tempest against someone in disfavor (an anti-communist for example) became the 1960s New Left's Mau-Mauing, threats, and violence.
For decades the conservative targets yielded 90+ percent of the real issue to escape the abuse heaped upon them enabling the Lefties to advance another notch.
The aging 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus spoiled brats (New Left) and their ideological issue (Rat Party) once again is "sitting out there in stunned confusion trying to figure out why it" failed again!..
they cannot get it that the "Fairness Doctrine" is gone and we have modern talk radio; to wit, the silenced generation is no longer and we are free to express opinion and know "the way it REALLY is." Their MSM Walter "North Viet Nam's most trusted man in America" Cronkite is gone! Also even in their 60s the 60's spoiled brat punks suck.
Sir have you no shame?Shame
Brought McCarthy down with a single sentence, and those commies are still in government.
And may he burn in Hell for eternity. What he did after Tet made him my most 'Hated Man in America.'
