According to Joe, the school houses were filled with Communist teachers and our American way of life was being aggressively taken over by these Red Menaces living in cells that were ready to overthrow the government. Hollywood was on trial and many of the top actors, producers, writers were blacklisted unfairly. Some committed suicide. Lives were overturned and the Senator and his hearings continued. The good news is that May 1 became Loyalty Day and many government employees marched in parades as they showed their Loyalty to America. This was done to balance the May Day parades in Moscow. It was not until the former war hero crossed the line and attacked Eisenhower as a Communist that the country really became alarmed. Until then it was Joe against all,with his staff continuing to attack all that was in its way. Yes, there were teachers who were Communists. Were they trying to overthrow the government. I think not. They were intelligent, articulate college grads who fought against the enemies of WWII. They returned and were not willing to relinquish their previous thoughts about a liberal and better world. They influenced the country and were able to return to their jobs by the 1960's. Sorry to be so long winded, but the primary point is that America was not screaming for Joe to stop his attacks on those that he considered were against the "American Way". <BR/>Shelly ZAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23643028.post-61267831958838249982008-07-25T12:29:00.000-04:002008-07-25T12:29:00.000-04:00What you don't know or remember about the 1954 McC...What you don't know or remember about the 1954 McCarthy Senate Hearings was that the majority of Americans disapproved his actions.

He has the same right to do so as you do to offer yours, Mr. Blaber.<BR/><BR/>Moreover, the question is not whether or not to believe Mr. Cahill. So far as I know, he has never claimed to witness these acts and therefore the question is not his credibility versus that of the persons named as defendants in the lawsuit.<BR/><BR/>The issue at hand is whether one believes the ladies alleging that they have experienced discrimination on the job as well as having been harrassed. Considering the fact that the City, at Mayor Sottile's behest and as a result of these ladies' allegations, is instituting tougher anti-discriminiation policies coupled with training on the subject, SOMEONE must suspect that there must be some basis to the claims.<BR/><BR/>Given that likelihood, Mr. Cahill's decision to form an opinion which sides with the Plaintiffs has as much legitimacy as your decision to side with the Defendants.<BR/><BR/>As I said in a previous comment, your general behavior on your blog indicates that you are likely a gentleman. It might behoove you to refrain from attacking those who have contrary opinions and limit yourself to defending those with whom you side using the facts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23643028.post-52287295707208991882008-07-25T07:39:00.000-04:002008-07-25T07:39:00.000-04:00Blaber, ignore him.
