subject: `Senator Pork` has died.

EH> RS>>>>> Committee rooms had TV cameras in them at times, most
EH> RS>>>>> notably the Army- McCarthy hearings of 1954
that destroyed
EH> RS>>>>> Beck's hero, Joe McCarthy.

EH> JB>>>> Let us be reminded what state Joe was from.

EH> RS>>> And this has what to do with the price of tea in China?

EH> RS>>> The country as a whole, and Wisconsin, have mostly rejected
EH> RS>>> McCarthyism. And McCarthy.

EH> RS>>> However, Glenn Beck and Ann Coulter still consider McCarthy to
EH> RS>>> be their hero.

EH> RS>>> Where were Ohio's Senators, when McCarthy was running around
EH> RS>>> with his tar bucket and brush?

EH> EH>> Please read the Venona Papers. Here's a list of Americans on
EH> EH>> the list... http://goo.gl/WHLe

EH> EH>> "Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Chairman of the bipartisan
EH> EH>> Commission on Government Secrecy, responsible for securing the
EH> EH>> release of Venona project materials, in the Introduction to his
EH> EH>> book Secrecy states, "The Venona intercepts contained
EH> EH>> overwhelming proof of the activities of Soviet spy networks in
EH> EH>> America, complete with names, dates, places, and deeds." The
EH> EH>> release involved careful consideration of privacy interests of
EH> EH>> individuals mentioned, referenced, or identified in the
EH> EH>> translations. Some names have not been released when to do so
EH>would constitute an invasion of privacy.  JB> Ove
EH> EH>> r 200 named or covernamed persons found in the VENONA
EH> EH>> translations, persons then present in the U.S., are claimed by
EH> EH>> the KGB and the GRU in their messages as their clandestine
EH> EH>> assets or contacts."

EH> EH>> The Venona Papers back up McCarthy's actions. He eventually
EH> EH>> went overboard, but before then, he was on the right track.

EH> EH>> Interestingly, the Russians are still spying on the US. The
EH> EH>> Obama administration doesn't want anyone to pay attention to
EH> EH>> that fact seeing how fast they made the swap deal with Russia
EH> EH>> even before the 10 spies were convicted.

EH> JB> Sauer forget show many devout communists were in the FDR
EH> JB> administration at the end of WWII.

EH>Sauer doesn't know much about history. He has repeatedly associated
EH>McCarthy with HUAC and refuses to understand that a Senator isn't
EH>part of the House.

I understand his confusion.  It was only recently that I convinced him 
that Senators don't represent districts in a state.  It took almost two 
weeks before he realized his error and went mute.
