you know Gryph, i used to be proud that our country went through the McCarthy trials, that we survived the histeria and the paranoia and the prosecution. it was a good thing that our liberties and freedom of speach and personal privicy was stripped away then, because we survived it. it made us stronger. we had learned from our mistake, and would not have to repeat it again any time soon. lesser nations might have crumbled, but we stood strong.

now look at us. fifty years later, and up to the same old tricks. I expected better. Shame on us.
