On June 9, 1954, attorney Joseph N. Welch posed the following question to Sen. Joseph McCarthy (R-Wisc.): "At long last, have you left no sense of decency?" Although this question sounded the death knell for Tailgunner Joe's unending hunt for Communists, 60 years later the collectivity of the Republican Party can still answer the question with a resounding negative. Instances of Republican moral depravity are legion and we need not rehearse them yet again, but it is worth mentioning that the treatment of Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, his parents, and the citizens of Hailey, Idaho is not just the most recent, but also the most hypocritical example of a depraved party's lack of simple human decency. Mr. Welch's still-relevant question should be put to every Republican every day between now and November 4.
