What about a response to

Oh please, before you try promoting that drunk to hero, you might want to
consider the damage he did honest investigations of Soviet espionage. We
now know that there were at least 350 Soviet spies working in this
country. Want to guess how many McCarthy uncovered? As Truman then said
about McCarthy, "the best asset the Kremlin has." Oh, and by the way,
being a communist isn't now, and wasn't then, illegal.
