McCarthy: I will never avoid giving the facts to the American people, Mr. Huie. It’s so easy, you see, to talk about communism generally. To talk about the sellout in China and Korea generally. But unless you call the role of the traitors, unless you call the role of those who have been responsible for the suicidal foreign policy, it’s a waste of the speaker’s time and the audience time. And I don’t intend to ever get up and in general terms talk about treason, talk about sellouts. You see, foreign policy isn’t like Little Topsy, it doesn’t just grow. Treason isn’t like Little Topsy, it doesn’t just grow. It’s created by men with faces and men with names. And I think those of us who’ve been elected by the American people to man the watchtowers, unless we have the intelligence to recognize the traitors and then—if I may use a word which we use in Wisconsin—unless we have the guts to name them, we should be taken down from those watchtowers and should not be representing the American people. And I don’t intend to ever avoid giving the names of traitors, giving the names of communists, if I discover them in important positions...

I intend to go into those states and give the American people the cold, documented picture of the sellout in Korea, the extent to which communism has been directing our foreign policy. Our suicidal foreign policy, if you please. And if the American people want more of that, then they can vote for the present administration.
