Joseph McCarthy in Lipstick

Friday Night Congresswoman Michelle Bachmann (R- MN 06) not only repeated the scurrilous Bill Ayers Jeremiah Wright attacks against Barack Obama, but she now claims that liberals are anti-American and that many members in congress could be plotting against America.

Next she will likely be claiming that she has a list of 50, or 200, or 100 Al-Queda members who are in the high ranks of the U.S State Department. Joseph McCarthy brought about division, shattered lives, and made the Cold war harder to fight all to enhance his political career. Suddenly I am worried that this clip shows that we could be on the precipice of repeating a shameful and hideous chapter in American history and a grim event in the lengthy history of America’s freedoms. Representative Bachmann, Barack Obama and dissent in America is not the problem, your tactics to stir greater fear and suspicion for your own partisan gain is the problem.

UPDATE: (Saturday 11:25A.M ET)- You too can take action to stop these dangerous histrionics by signing this statement, urging Congress to censure Bachmann for stoking such fears. Send a message that McCarthyism and the manipulation of the American polity will not stand.
