This whole movie is flawed
The basic premise of it being about senator mccarthy is a load of *beep* he was right all along this is just another liberal writer with to much time on his hands

he had perfect legal reason too, they were communists in our government thats reason enough, to think if somehow they took over would be horrible he knew he couldnt let that happen
shareyou're an idiot. what does this have to do with the movie anyway? take your ignorant political views somewhere else where people care.
sharethis has to do with the movie cuz some of it was on the mccarthy triles and they arent ignorant they are right almost all the people you say wrongfully were put in jail have been proven to be communists because when the soviet union fell they found all kinds of files proving so :)

but there is proof now that they were communists, and trying to spread those ideas in a democracy of course they are gonna be jailed and damn well they should be, and dont change the subject to the cival war to try and make ur answer more justified the point is mccarthy was right and he just be respected because of it not ridiculed by liberal writers

Of course he would change wut he was calling them, its just like today terrorists arent called terrorists they are called "freedom fighters" and other things of that nature, and they have been proven guilty, they werent back then because they had no evidence now they do, those people accused were in our government and there was nothing stopping them from trying to take over the communism was in other countries at the time, im not using liberal as a "dirty" word i'm just saying its them that always try to make him look bad beacuase he was a republican and since democrats of full of *beep* of course they are gonna try and make him look like a evil man, and you are bringing up articles and stuff that looked like it was published back when mccarthy was still around and the people had not been proven communits yet.

Don't you know that Republicans are just as embarrassed about McCarthy as Democratics are? He was probably the most un-American person of the 20th Century.
sharethere are tons are articles saying mccarthy was right....you refuse to look at them
shareI refuse to read any more of your posts. you are an idiot. McCarthy did it all for power and money, as numerous sources prove. I will not waste my time on you, republican idiot.
shareJoseph McCarthy was himself, exactly how he billed communists to be. He instilled a sense of pure fear in a country, and tried to scare the American people into changing their government. Does this sound familiar in any way? If so, you can read and probably use correct punctuation (unlike some participants of this message board). Sen. McCarthy created his own totalitarian regime, it was called the "House Committee on Un-American Activities". He made himself the judge, jury, and executioner for too many people, who's lives were ruined by McCarthy's lies. There is no real proof that anyone was either a communist or wrongly accused, but anyone who isn't a complete idiot obviously knows that the "Red Scare" was pure paranoia, and a complete lie. In closing: Sen. Joseph McCarthy, bad; Salem Witch Trials are exactly the same as "The House Committee on Un-American Activites" and the NSA's "Warrantless Wiretapping Program"; and anyone who still believes the U.S.S.R. exists and is coming to get us, suffers from paranoia, and needs help.
Thank you for your time.
Anyoen hear heared of the George Clooney film "Good night and Good luck"? Those boards have a few Pro-Mcarthys as well.
Odd, I don't think there's a single person who still believes the Salme Witch trials were justified yet there are people who think the Red Scare, which was basicly a renactment of the Witch Trials, was justified? It is sad, really sad.

I guess there's one for every era: Salem Witch Trials, Red Scare, Patriot Act... it's freakin' scary, what mankind is capable in the face of the 'unknown'.

McCarthy was a senator - he wasn't a member of the HCUAC!
shareThis is lovely, and I wish I could've written it myself. That being said, we should realize that we're arguing with someone who has "francesux" as their name.
hasn't anyone ever told you that smoking was bad for you?
