The story, now told. Thank you.

I distinctly remember the televised, on black and white TV, Army/McCarthy hearings although being exactly Adam's age at the time, and even though surrounded by adults abuzz with interest, their significance escaped me until years later.

Out there, somewhere, may we yet find our modern day Joseph Welch.

Another well-written documentation of our sullied history. It has sparked my June 14 protest poster's message. I will quote Iowan Welch's, "Have you no sense of decency?" Instead of "sir" at the end of the question, I will add 47. Thank you Arnold.
