  • Aunque la cruzada del senador le hizo ganar una cantidad no pequeña de oposición, muchos temían que oponerse a él pondrían sus propias lealtades en tela de juicio. La disposición de McCarthy para hacer acusaciones públicas sin fundamento, y su imprudente indiferencia para cualquier evidencia, sirvió para crear un régimen de terror que el aún reverbera al escuchar el término "macartismo".

  • Senator Joseph McCarthy of Wisconsin was the most righteous, All-American man in the United States during the early 1950s. McCarthy is famous for saving the world from communists via the doctrine of truthiness; he knew in his gut that everyone he accused was a communist, and didn't need any pesky facts to ruin thousands of lives in the name of democracy.
  • Joseph McCarthy (1908 - 1957) was a Senator of the United States Senate from 1947 to 1957. He represented Wisconsin. In the 1950s, he presided over investigations into Communist activity in the United States. He was assisted by Roy Cohn. (TXF: "Travelers")
  • Joseph Raymond McCarthy (1908-1957) was a Wisconsin senator who became infamous for his aggressive investigation and claims of Communist infiltration in the United States of America. In one 1950 lecture at a Republican Women's Club meeting, McCarthy claimed that "I have here in my hand a list..." of known Communists working in the State Department. Over the following days and weeks, McCarthy's claims of the number of Communists on "the list" changed, and it seems likely that an actual list never existed.
  • Joseph Raymond "Joe" McCarthy (November 14, 1908May 2, 1957) was an American politician who served as a Republican U.S. Senator from the state of Wisconsin from 1947 until his death in 1957. Beginning in 1950, McCarthy became the most visible public face of a period in which Cold War tensions fueled fears of widespread subversion. He was noted for making claims that there were large numbers of Communists and Soviet spies and sympathizers inside the United States federal government and elsewhere. Ultimately, his tactics and inability to substantiate his claims led him to be censured by the United States Senate.
  • Joseph Raymond "Joe" McCarthy was a US Senator and Bill Murray lookalike from Wisconsin from 1947, until his death in 1957. He ruined the lives of countless numbers of Americans in his paranoid witch-hunt against alleged Communists with little regard to the evidence as to whether these people really were communist. McCarthy severely damaged the American political system until he was brought down. However there were so few Communists most of his targets were liberals and democratic Socialists McCarthy just wanted to ruin progressives such as democratic Socialists and liberals.

Nonetheless, his tactics, which were used by other U.S. politicians, caused the ruin of several people.
  • Iosephus McCarthy (natus die 14 Novembris 1908 in Grand Chute Visconsiniae; mortuus die 2 Maii 1957 in Bethesda Terrae Mariae) fuit senator Americanus, propter sententiam suam contra communismum cognitus, qui anno 1950 oratione praeclara sua habita, coniuratione sceleratissima ac infestissima Unionis Sovieticae et item omnium communisticorum ad perniciem rei publicae Americanorum praetenta, quaesitione permolesta principibus rei publicae, militibus, denique omnibus civibus Americanis eius consilio instituta, repente et famam et ignominiam accipiens, princeps factionis ascendentis contra communismum factus est. Causa verum eius numquam re ac indiciis probata, neque ceteris senatoris principibusque militaribus constiturus quaesitione suo ad communisticos e re publica vellendos bonorum omnium
