Is Joseph McCarthy mentioned in a flattering way?
No, one quote uses him critically, describing another political figure as his descendant rather than as a genuine patriot.
Do these quotes treat the McCarthy name as one single legacy?
Not at all. It's split between warm personal praise for Kevin and Melissa McCarthy and a critical political reference to Joseph McCarthy's history.
