I used to think having a House Un-American Activities Committee was a bad idea, just as I used to think interning the Japanese-Americans was a bad idea. Recent events have made me reconsider both opinions.

"Witness" is a fantastic book that everyone should read. I would also include Richard Nixon because of his role in bringing Hiss to trial - the Communists never forgot and Watergate gave them the opportunity for revenge.

Totally agree, and have thought these same thoughts for a while.

I think the Japanese camps were infortunate. But I also think that given the circumstances, the camps were largely innocuous.

The Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor using Japanese tourists/locals as spies. It's hard to fault the quarintine of west Coast Japanese, particularly quarantines of those Japanese whose allegiance was to the Emporer, rather than America. And yes, some innocents were caught up in the camps.

Japanese were also fed, housed, educated, not forced into slave labor, and ultimately won their freedom thorugh America's courts. I'd be hard pressed to find an example of better treatment in a historical context.

Just so long as they learn the lessons from the McCarthy years. If you get out-of-hand with your prosecution, there will be a backlash that will be felt for decades. The last thing conservatives need is a new generation of Americans experiencing McCarthyism for themselves. We'll have to hear the left-wing knee-jerk "McCarthyism" accusation for another 100 years.

McCarthy was right and so is your above post.

Actually, there is recent evidence that we knew of a substantial number of Japanese agents here in the U.S. through Ultra intercepts. Just grabbing those players would have been a dead give-away that the Japanese Purple Codes had been compromised. So the decision was made for the mass internments. Unpleasant but understandable, given the threat and the times.

Considering this country elected a socialist for president, and then re-elected him for a second term, it is far worse than Hollywood and government agencies.

The goal of the ever name changing liars is to remove from our Declaration of Independence, which sets this country apart from all other "RIGHTS" given to individuals by the Creator cannot be taken by government.

The goal of communism/socialism/liberalism is their control and removal of the Creator giving "RIGHTS", to themselves, is when they will declare victory.

Evolution - theory of, is alive not only in the big lie about where flesh beings came from; note how quitely the Constitution over past 40 years has become the "EVOLVING" living document. These people think that they are "gods" and they will give and take as they see fit.

The elected "PIGS" in congress will not allow discovery of
who they are and what their agenda is really about and the tools used in achieving it.

When those seven men were caught breaking and entering at the Watergate Hotel in June 1972, little did anyone suspect they had set off a chain of events that years later would cripple America?s ability to protect itself at a time when this nation is under a greater threat than at any time in the memory of most citizens.

The junior prosecutors of Nixon in the Watergate affair were Hillary and her running mates like Harold Ickes. It was under Clinton that much of the subversion of the FBI and CIA were done. The Democrat left are the tip of the spear for Communism in this country. Doesn't that also explain their affinity for the Muslims and the PLO? Was the real reason for the invasion of the Balkins to rescue the Muslims? Is the real objection to our liberation of Iraq is that it marks the beginning of the end for the Communism/Muslim axis?

Here is the predicament;

In this country people are free to voice their opinions, free to do just about whatever they want, including holding communist ideology. Although most Americans detest this form of government, there is an underground movement in this country. What can we do about it? If we do anything we are charged with McCarthism. If we do nothing we allow the problem to fester and grow. Hitler showed the world that millions of people can follow one crazy idea. We should not underestimate this problem.

But how do we do this without being accused of violating first amendment rights?
