He's often treated as a villain in pop culture, but, knowing what we know now, it appears that he was RIGHT about Hollywood and a bunch of other things. If he'd stayed in power, Clinton and Obama would never have happened to America.

I think Trump should reinstate the Committee on Un-American Activities. My only reservation about bringing that back is that I'd hate to see such a thing in the Left's hands. They've already shown what they'd do by their IRS targeting.

Sounds like a great idea to me! Maybe there are still some of the East German Stasi people around that could be brought out of retirement to get the ball rolling. They would have the experience needed for the job.

The committee on un-american activities is almost the most un-american activity possible. The fact you think its a good idea shows how un-american you are. Tail-gunner Joe deserves his place in the pantheon of American villains.

You'd have to be pretty much morally bankrupt to think of Joe as a hero - then or now.

He and Trump are two peas in a pod. Master weavers of conspiracy theories.

I wouldn't call him a hero, but he was right, and the historical portrayal of him reminds us who writes the history.

McCarthy and "hero" do not belong in the same sentence. He was a crazy nutjob.

He was so right his evidence was fabricated and he couldn't actually name names. But you'll fit right in with your degree in history from Trump University.
