This is absurd. Minus credible allegations of fraud, its none of the governments damn business. The correct answer (as it should have been in the Mcarthy hearings) is show me probable cause or kss my ass. The human Q tip should get nothing for free. If the courts say yes, then give it to him, if not, piss off.
FQ13
Off topic (big surprise ) but McCarthy HAD probable cause AND subpoena power. FQ, what you know about Joe McCarthy is NOT TRUE. You see how the citizens protesting against Obama Care are being miss represented, Everything you were taught about McCarthy leading a "Witch hunt", causing suicides, and making "wild, unfounded, accusations" is Bullshit.
He found out that several high level employees of the Govt were actual communists at the height of the Cold War and tried to find out why known security risks (Alger Hiss for example) had access to classified information. The only person who committed suicide was a willing witness who could not deal with the Democrats revealing his Homosexuality so he jumped out a window. The only people who's lives were ruined were the ones who tried to protect America's security, like Joe himself.
History has shown that not only was he correct that those people should not have had Government jobs, but that the infiltration extended all the way into the Oval Office in the persons of Harry Dexter White, and Louchlin Curry.
"The KGB Papers" covers it in detail but it's about 2000 pages and is basically a history of the entire USSR operations against America, a more condensed version,that more or less summarizes the Venona intercepts and the thousands of pages of KGB documents, but focus's specifically on McCarthy, is Ann Coulter's "Treason" your opinion of HER is not relevant, I had read the other book and several others BEFORE I read hers and she is spot on as far as her facts go, I could identify her sources from the quotes and phrases that she used. Love her or hate her it is an ACCURATE history of the McCarthy hearings.
