Happy Birthday Senator Joe McCarthy!
Vanity ^ | Nov 14 2008 | Mark Jessup

Posted on 11/14/2008 3:57:37 AM PST by mkjessup

Today is the 100th Birthday of Senator Joe McCarthy of Wisconsin, a great American patriot who was vilified and condemned for his warnings of Communist infiltration of our government. Today, his warnings ring just as true.

We won't see any news articles commemorating this great man, so this is my humble contribution to honoring him.

His only failing is vastly underestimating the extent of the infiltration. :(

Indeed. The entrenched Communists/socialists and one-world internationalists have waited for a long time, and now they’ve installed Comrade 0bama and his politburo.

But America will win this fight, one way or the other.

Indeed. And it is important that we no longer treat communists with the respect shown by the academic label “Marxists.”

They are communists or commies. The sooner we start calling what they are, the sooner most of America will realize what leftism is.

Thus my constant use of the moniker, Obammie the Commie.

Well said FRiend.

If Senator Joe were alive today, he would be calling them by their proper names, and a few improper (but well deserved) names too.

God rest his soul, which is probably restless over recent developments.

He was so right and, so before his time. Look what ignoring him has done to this country.

Mr. Obama, are you now, or have you ever been a member of the Communist Party.

"Uhhh. Mr. Ayers, he was just a guy from my neighborhood..."

Just answer the question, Mr. Obama...

...the reason the Washington Post attacked him so was that the paper’s owners were Stalinist admirers....and they’re still communist sympathizers, only now they call it “progressive”

A politician who puts his country’s welfare and security ahead of his own is rare in any era. McCarthy is a true American hero.

I read the book “Blacklisted By History”, really set the record straight. It also exposes the fact that “back in the day” the liberal leftist Commiecrats did everything in their power to cover up what he had found with lies, personal attacks, and manipulation of the media . . . exactly in the manner we witnessed just two weeks ago. After reading this book I have ever since referred to Democrats as Commiecrats . . . they are one in the same!

MK, thank you for the reminder on the Tailgunner Joe McC....the real story about McCarthy can be found in Stanton Evans’ book: ‘Blacklisted by History: The Untold Story of Senator Joe McCarthy and His Fight Against America’s Enemies’. The battle rages in the Amazon book review comments on Blacklisted..

May he RIP. Paul Revere rode the countryside warning citizens that the British were coming; Sen. McCarthy warned his countrymen that the Commies were coming. He was a true patriot in every sense of the word; and was ultimately destroyed by the liberal media. Even then, the media had many Commie sympathizers in their midst.

They really are pinko commie fags now, aren't they? Search on "The Frankfurt School" for a major piece of their plan.

“It’s a crying shame we don’t have any congressmen today with half of his moxy.”

How about that newly-elected Representative from down south?
Do I recall correctly that his name is J. Broun from Georgia?
