Joseph R. McCarthy, Our purpose is two-fold: 1) to provide the people of the United States with the factual background to help them evaluate the public statements and actions of the junior Senator from Wisconsin; and 2) to make avail­ able to our friends of the free world authentic ma­ terials which will enable them to gain a clearer perspective of the meaning of McCarthyism and the extent to which it is at war with the finest traditions of Americanism. The urgent need for a solid study of McCarthy's record has never been greater: • The activities of the Senate Committee over which he presides command front-page headlines throughout the world and provide much of the material by which the world judges American policy and purpose. • The Senator himself has become the symbol of a state of mind which has lowered our stature and dignity as a nation and reduced measurably our capacity for leadership in the struggle against Conmiunism. • McCarthy has struck repeatedly at the letter and the spirit of our Bill of Rights by using methods of intolerance and intimidation in an effort to create a national climate of hysteria, fear, and suppression. • The "ism" added to his name has become a generic symbol and double-checked, and is backed by sponsors of that study bear no re­ of guilt by accusation, character the official records. sponsibility for the contents of this assassination, the big lie, and the Readers of this special issue of The issue of The Progressive. repudiation of our country's tradi­ Progressive may be interested in the tional devotion to fair play and a fair background of the project.

  • Reagan's Victory
    Reagan’s ictory How HeV Built His Winning Coalition By Robert G. Morrison Foreword by William J. Bennett Reagan’s Victory: How He Built His Winning Coalition By Robert G. Morrison 1 FOREWORD By William J. Bennett Ronald Reagan always called me on my birthday. Even after he had left the White House, he continued to call me on my birthday. He called all his Cabinet members and close asso- ciates on their birthdays. I’ve never known another man in public life who did that. I could tell that Alzheimer’s had laid its firm grip on his mind when those calls stopped coming. The President would have agreed with the sign borne by hundreds of pro-life marchers each January 22nd: “Doesn’t Everyone Deserve a Birth Day?” Reagan’s pro-life convic- tions were an integral part of who he was. All of us who served him knew that. Many of my colleagues in the Reagan administration were pro-choice. Reagan never treat- ed any of his team with less than full respect and full loyalty for that. But as for the Reagan administration, it was a pro-life administration. I was the second choice of Reagan’s to head the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH). It was my first appointment in a Republican administration. I was a Democrat. Reagan had chosen me after a well-known Southern historian and literary critic hurt his candidacy by criticizing Abraham Lincoln. My appointment became controversial within the Reagan ranks because the Gipper was highly popular in the South, where residual animosities toward Lincoln could still be found.

It provides a comprehensive overview of a hitherto overlooked aspect of the so-called McCarthy-era — amateur counter-subversives who contributed to the national mood of anticommunism in obscure but meaninGful ways. It also establishes significant philosophical and practical connections between disparate groups — some nakedly riGht-winG, others more vaGuely "patriotic" — that demonstrate the existence of a loose but Genuine Grassroots anticommunist network.
