Thus far, two columns, at least two major distortions, a host of lies and innuendos, and a great deal of emotional cavilings from old Dorothy. All in all, she's become totally unreliable for factual info and more of a Dowd than her canard about Ann !
Thanks for the link ! :-)
The image of McCarthy riding roughshod over civil liberties and terrifying small children is difficult to square with the fact that the public loved him . . .The more he rallied against Communists working for the government, the higher his approval ratings soared.At the height of the left's counterattack against McCarthy, just months away from a Senate censure, Americans told pollsters they approved of the job he was going by 50 to 29 percent . . .his approval rating was 63 percent. Gallup polls from 1950 to 1954 ...showed that Catholics supported McCarthy by 56 to 29 percent; Protestants supported him by 45 to 36 percent . . . Jews opposed McCarthy by 82 to 3 percent.
