Venona proved McCarthy right about communist infiltration. His methods were ham-handed and proof was beyond his reach. I guarantee McCarthy lived his country far more than Comey.
But did he love God.
That was the problem, and McCarthy didn’t know where to stop, to say it was enough, that he wasn’t trying to silence open debate too. Capitalism in a Christian world sells on its merits just fine. One memo does not a McCarthy make. Donald will be flying it like a kite, however.
McCarthy was late to the party.
