::Yes, we had these debates ''in extensio'' in Wikipedia.  For example, Harry Dexter White who died three days after a HUAC hearing in August of 1948, nevertheless was a "victim of McCarthyism", nevermind the '''fact''' that he was (1) dead and burried when McCarthy waved his list of 57 Communists in February of 1950; (2) was dead and burried when McCarthy held hearings; (3) never testified before any Senate hearing chaired by Joseph McCarthy; (4) Joseph McCarthy never served in the House of Representatives.  Now, per Wikipedia's own policy of WP:CITE, WP:NOR, WP:V, WP:RS, WP:AWT, no one ever produced any evidence Harry Dexter White "denied charges before a McCarty era hearing".  I burried Mr. White umteen times only to have him resurrected to deny charges before a "McCarthy era hearing".  In this instance, I would suggest Conservapedia implement Wikipedia's own policies which they steadfastly refused to do.  [[User:RobS|RobS]] 15:46, 13 March 2007 (EDT)

Do you consider it a "fact" that believing communists have a right to teach makes you "pro-communist?" --[[User:PF Fox|PF Fox]] 15:38, 13 March 2007 (EDT)

Let me make three pointers to concerned editors & Admins about the army of sockpuppets who will attack this article:
 +
 +
(1) they will try to define [[McCarthyism]] and the "McCarthy era" as dating from 1948 onwards;
 +
 +
(2) they will try to define "the Second Red Scare" as dating from 1948 onwards & make it synonymous with McCarthyism.
 +
 +
(3) they will impugn and slander the sources of information in absence of any valid rebuttal.
 +
 +
This blatant propagandizing which they view as a high priority should be resisted.  [[User:RobS|RobS]] 16:01, 13 March 2007 (EDT)
