英语演讲：HaveYouNoSenseofDecency
McCarthy-Welch Exchange: "Have You No Sense of
Decency"
McCarthy: (Mr. Chairman) ...in view of Mr. Welch's
request that the information be given once we know of
anyone who might be performing any work for the Communist
Party, I think we should tell him that he has in his law
firm a young man named Fisher whom he recommended,
incidentally, to do the work on this Committee, who has
been, for a number of years, a member of an organization
which is named, oh, years and years ago, as the legal
bulwark of the Communist Party, an organization which
always springs to the defense of anyone who dares to
expose Communists.
Knowing that, Mr. Welch, I just felt that I had a
duty to respond to your urgent request that "before
sundown," when we know of anyone serving the Communist
cause we let the agency know. Now, we're now letting you
know that your man did belong to this organization for
either three or four years, belonged to it long after he
was out of law school. And I have hesitated bringing
that up, but I have been rather bored with your phony
requests to Mr. Cohn here, that he, personally, get every
1
Communist out of Government before sundown. Whether you
knew that he was a member of that Communist organization
or not, I don't know. I assume you did not, Mr. Welch,
because I get the impression that while you are quite an
actor, you play for a laugh, I don't think you have any
conception of the danger of the Communist Party. I don't
think you, yourself, would ever knowingly aid the
Communist cause. I think you're unknowingly aiding it
when you try to burlesque this hearing in which we're
attempting to bring out the facts.
Welch: Mr. Chairman....
Mundt: The Chair may say that he has no recognition
or no memory of Mr. Welch recommending either Mr. Fisher
or anybody else as counsel for this Committee.
McCarthy: I refer to the record, Mr. Chairman...to
the news story on that.
Welch: Mr. Chairman. Under these circumstances, I
must myself have something approaching a personal
privilege.
Mundt: You may have, sir --
Welch: Senator McCarthy, I did not know, Senator --
Senator, sometimes you say may I have your attention --
McCarthy: I'm listening....

Welch: May I have your attention?
McCarthy: I can listen with one ear and talk with --.
Welch: No, this time, sir, I want you to listen with
both. Senator McCarthy, I think until this moment --
McCarthy: -- Good. Just a minute. Jim, Jim, will
you get the news story to the effect that this man
belongs to the -- to this Communist front
organization....
Welch: I will tell you that he belonged to it.
McCarthy: Jim, will you get the citation, one of the
citations showing that this was the legal arm of the
Communist Party, and the length of time that he belonged,
and the fact that he was recommended by Mr. Welch. I
think that should be in the record....
Welch: Senator, you won't need anything in the record
when I finish telling you this. Until this moment,
Senator, I think I never really gauged your cruelty, or
your recklessness. Fred Fisher is a young man who went to
the Harvard Law School and came into my firm and is
starting what looks to be a brilliant career with us.
When I decided to work for this Committee, I asked Jim
St. Clair, who sits on my right, to be my first
assistant. I said to Jim, "Pick somebody in the firm to
