22. If anyone balks about this just remind them that McCarthy defended German
soldiers after WWII for the war crimes at Melmedy. He used his senate bully pulpit to claim the Germans were set up and unfairly convicted.

Yes, there's a big difference... but it's a lot of fun to watch right wing faces turn purple when you let them know their Uber-American, "commie" chasing, hero defended the men who butchered American POWs.
