It's called the History Channel. You should watch it. You learn stuff.
In a television appearance that outraged Democrats are already describing as Joseph McCarthy politics, Minnesota Rep. Michelle Bachmann claimed on Friday that Barack Obama and his wife Michelle held anti-American views and couldn't be trusted in the White House. She even called for the major newspapers of the country to investigate other members of Congress to "find out if they are pro-America or anti-America."
Oh, good! I less-than-three blatant McCarthyism!
(The great bit is that her Democratic opponent has had overwhelming contribution numbers since the Hardball segment in question aired. Good.)

Seriously. McCarthyism. We've been to that little party before, and we're still getting rid of the hangover.

If I hadn't donated what meager spare cash I had already last week, I'd be throwing more meager spare cash at the campaign. (Thank you, Maria from Glendale, for matching my super amazing $5 contribution!)
