I remember those days. Generally they are referred to as McCarthyism. We know now that McCarthy was right.

But what about today? How is that any different from our self-described new Democrat "progressives" helping to break the superpower monopoly and restrain American "aggression?" Progressives contribute to world peace and even help the U.S. by diluting our sovereignty, they say.

Why do conservatives think we can have discourse with ideologues such as these? This is a war within a war it is not traditional politics.
