Mikhail Simkin: Out of 159 persons in McCarthy's list at least 9 were communist spies.

This is by several orders of magnitude higher fraction than in general population.

Liberal media calls McCarthyism a witch-hunt. More than 150 people were accused of witchcraft in Salem. What would you say if 9 of them were real witches?

^^^^^^

I'd say those nine witches were probably progressives for their time and place. I'm pro-witch in general ,myself. I favor the witches over the powers-that-be in Salem. Weren't those witches feminists, women's liberationists ? Hanging the witches was countrrevolutionary.

In the McCarthy case, I'd say the Communist spies were good witches and McCarthy was a bad ogre.

Bulah, the red witch
