U.S. Representative Spencer Bachus says he has a secret list of 17 socialists in the House but so far can only name one. Congresswoman Michele Bachmann has called on the media to investigate her Congressional colleagues to "find out if they are pro-America or anti-America." Anyone who refuses to fall in line with right wing dogma is called a "lib."Hmmmm. Secret lists. Calls to examine people's patriotism. Name calling of dissenters. There is a name for this. It's called McCarthyism. You remember old Joe McCarthy don't you? And how about the old HUAC (House Un-American Activities Committee)? Let's bring back that lovely institution why we're at it. The teabaggers would party like it's 1999.
Reminds me of an old quote...
"When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a communist." --Dom Hélder Câmara
