I'm really looking forward to seeing that.

Especially since within the last year I've heard some people (not here) 
trying to defend the actions of McCarthy- saying that he had it right all 
along. I know some people will favor the underdog in history, but this is 
insane. The mindset that McCarthy embodied ruined so many people's lives and 
was perhaps the most un-American movement of the 20th century. Back in the 
50's, a good friend of mine showed up for work one day and found her boss 
had cleared out his desk and disappeared. No one ever knew what became of 
him or his family. Is this something that should happen to a law abiding 
citizen in the United States? Some people still think so.
