02 December 1954 - US SENATE CONDEMNS MCCARTHY FOR REDBAITING: The
Senate votes 65-22 to censure their colleague, Sen. Joseph McCarthy,
for conduct unbecoming of a senator in his vitriolic campaign, known
as McCarthyism, to root out suspected communists in the US. After the
censure, his last traces of influence will evaporate, and he'll die of
alcoholism in 1957.

Title: Senate Bean Soup
Categories: Soups, Pork, Beans, Vegetables, Potatoes
Yield: 6 Servings
1 lb Dry white beans; soaked
- overnight
1 Meaty ham bone
+=OR=+
2 Smoked ham hocks
3 qt Water
3 lg Onions; fine chopped
3 cl Garlic; fine chopped
4 Ribs celery; w/leaves, fine
- chopped
1/4 c Parsley; fine chopped
1 c Cooked mashed potatoes
Salt & pepper
GARNISH: minced parsley or chives
Strain the water from the soaked beans and put in a big
pot with 3 quarts of water and the ham bone or ham hocks.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 2 hours.
Stir the chopped vegetables and herbs into the pot--and
also the mashed potatoes and cook over low heat for
another hour--until the beans are nicely tender.
Remove the bones from the pot--cut off the meat into small
bits and return the meat to the pot, discarding the bones.
When ready to serve, ladle into bowls and garnish with
pinches of herbs. For "U.S. House of Representative Bean
Soup" authenticity, crush a few of the beans in each bowl
to thicken the broth and make it slightly opaque.
