Senator Joseph McCarthy (R-WI) of the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC).

Lost me right there.

Why? After the fall of the Soviet Union, the KGB's own files showed that McCarthy was RIGHT and even some of the people in the State Department that he was grilling were Soviet Agents!

McCarthy was a SENATOR. He didn’t have any part in the HOUSE UnAmerican Affairs Committee.
