[quote=GARYKINKADE,305570]According to Wikipedia::::: The Federal Loyalty Program came first-----1948 McCarthyism followed in the early 1950's Was it proposed by the left leaning politicians? There was a lot of political jockeying between the Democrats , Republicans and even the FBI (to gain more law enforcement advantage) The Republican party was crying "Red Scare" and accusing the Democrats of being soft on Communism. Please note the similarity of today with the" threat of terrorism" used as a political B.S. tool. O.K. back to the story..... It appears that the Democratic President Harry Truman signed into law The Federal Loyalty Program due to pressure from the Republican side in order to maintain popular support for the Democratic Party(huh). And speaking of disloyalty... how about some some of our own people and corporations siding with the NAZIS during WW2....sorry to keep bringing it up.......but that really rubs me raw!![/quote]
