Just for the record, there is a difference between McCarthy and Judas

[LisaM]

Judas is a SYMBOL.

Joe McCarthy is a REAL PERSON of recent memory. There are still many, many people alive who suffered for what he did, and paid the price with their career or more.

I don't mean to offend religious people, but, although I attend church myself, I see the Bible as parable.

Using the word "Judas" and using the word "McCarthy" are not even remotely similar, IMO. Using the word Judas is like using the word Midas. There probably was a real Midas, but it's unlikely that whatever he touched turned golden.
