Jill,
You start off with not saying you know a lot about McCarthyism…then don’t talk about it. But you libs are great at talking about things you don’t get.

Also, if you want real censorship, look up all what your forebears in the “progressive” movement did, like Wilson, et.al. as far as the Red scares. Those things, along with tuskegee, were run by liberals, not conservatives.

Actually read both sides about McCarthy. If you look at both sides, you will see that while Joe McCarthy was a lot of things, being totally wrong is not one of them. And, the worst of the so called “blacklisting” was NOT led by McCarthy but by the House of Reps. As usual, you libs just put a label on something and use it as a smear. Please take the chance, if they offer it at “blogher” to check in on the fact checking booth, right next to the midol. You need both.

they should show those planes flying into the towers on t.v. every hour on the hour to remind the people of this country who our enemies are. if you’ll recall pat buchanan, while running for president in 96 stated that if we don’t have a temporary moratorium on immigration, close our borders, and conduct an inventory of who is in this country we will have a terrorist attack of catastrophic proportions on american soil sometime within the next five years. five years later? 9/11. i remember him being dismissed as a “right-wing extremist.” i guess those name callers were wrong in retrospect.

Thanks, Judy. I agree with you 100%.

And I should have added a link to that violent something and radicalization bill that went through the Congress earlier this year.

Together, these abilities allow broad discretion and dissemination of whatever definition of fear those in charge say we should fear. When I think we know pretty well exactly who that is.

Great post Jill – that this is happening with barely a blip on the average person’s radar has me very concerned.
