"both the U.S. and Soviet governments are controlled by the same furtive conspiratorial cabal of internationalists, greedy bankers, and corrupt politicians. If left unexposed, the traitors inside the U.S. government would betray the country's sovereignty to the United Nations for a collectivist New World Order, managed by a 'one-world socialist government.'" Welch saw collectivism as the main threat to Western Civilization, and liberals as "secret communist traitors" who provided cover for the gradual process of collectivism, with the ultimate goal of replacing the nations of western civilization with a one-world socialist government. "There are many stages of welfarism, socialism, and collectivism in general," he wrote, "but Communism is the ultimate state of them all, and they all lead inevitably in that direction."
Now, I am not going to do homework for anyone.... but the John birch Society is one of the most paramoid groups to ever exist. Eisenhower was considered a Commie Stooge, OSHA, the Federal Reserve, China fluoridated water.... boy and howdy, all plots.... there was a Socialist/Commie under every Bush!!!

TEA ANYONE?
Here's another funny link to the JOHN BIRCH SOCIETY

When you have two and a half minutes to spare, check out this vintage recording of The Chad Mitchell Trio singing, "The John Birch Society" circa '62. My sister had this album ("Live at the Bitter End") which gave me a taste of subversive folk music at the ripe old age of eight...
This song is still relevant today.
(By the way, when Chad Mitchell went to prison on a heroin conviction, they replaced him with a guitar player named John Denver...)

I was over to Blaze today to read about their hand wringing about Cain and the liberal conspiracy to destroy him with racially stereotyped sex allegations. And I ran into a post there that laid out all the "sponsors" of the OWS. Can you believe that the commies, the anarchists, the socialists, Hezbolla, the Iranians, and all they crazies in the world are helping those folks camping at WS? yeah, so say the right wing nutties, who are told to think that by none other than the real nutties, the Koch brothers and their John Birch supporting minions. I just love it.
Keep up the fight!
i have to admit that i'm shocked, jimm, shocked i tell ya!! no, not about the birchers and their craziness. i knew about that. and not about koch daddy. i knew he was one of the original birchers (hey, i never noticed before that birchers and birthers only differ by one letter, but that's beside the point). so what shocked me so?

you have a hairdresser?!?! i had you pegged as a barber kinda guy. ;o)
Squatlo.... checked it... heard OF them... but never HEARD them. good stuff. I was more into Phil Ochs.
Nonnie.. all the barbers I know are conservative... and cut my hair way too short. My hairdresser, however, is very....liberal.
The same strain of "kookism" is alive and all too well today. The threat of international communism is long gone, but they've found a useful substitute in the international criminal conspiracy of extremist Muslim terrorism. And when that goes the way of communism, they will find something else. Bogeymen facilitate their agenda, binding the insecure and paranoid to them.
Alas, like death and taxes, the kooks and paranoid know-nothings will always be with us.
... all the barbers I know are conservative...
All the more reason to avoid being scalped or worse (never trust a conservative wielding a razor).
