Well, I think public establishments should not discriminate on the basis or race etc. It does impinge individual rights, but at the cost of corroding our social chords, and with great attendant cruelty and humiliation. I am reading about Taft and Bricker in Robert Caro's book on LBJ's senate years. They were isolationists (opposed to the Marshall Plan for example), and simply not my cup of tea at all. Bricker was a big fan of McCarthy.

Bricker was a big fan of McCarthy.

My kind of guy. But then, I'm not an anti-anticommunist.

BTW, recently released Soviet archives sugest that McCarthy underestimated Communist subversion of our society and government.
