Holy fking cow!!! No wonder MacCarthy started the witch hunt. In this country MacCarthy has a bad name because he gave some movie stars a hard time. Other then that I know nothing of him. McCarthy was a creep, and I don't think you'll find anyone leaping to his defense. But many in the media and the academy have made the "red scare" out to be nothing more than paranoia and a bunch of overly patriotic wierdos out to get some Leftie intellectuals. Fact of the matter was, the American Communist Party was an active recruiting ground into the 50's for the KGB, which had long penetrated the United States government. The extent of Soviet espionage was not a delusion. Derek
