So I'm a racist now.
It always comes down to that.
And when it comes to court decisions Obama doesn't seem to care about District of Columbia v. Heller, nor does he care about the 2nd Amendment.
Normal people reject your Messiah's push to use every crisis in America simply to destroy the loyal opposition.
I figure if somebody hates this country as much as he does why the **** doesn't he leave. I hear he holds dual-citizenship.
There is nothing in my post suggesting racism and the rest of your shit is mindless rhetoric. How many brain cells are left up there?
More than you if you don't know what the John Birch Society was.
I don't know if this reply was sent because the damn cable company was interrupted right when I posted, but I'm going to reply to it a little differently this time.
The timeline was after the fall of Joseph McCarthy, who gained popular support until he started calling everyone under the sun a communist, so that is the first dot. The anti-communists started a political movement called the modern conservative movement or the New Right. It was a fusion of traditional conservatives, libertarians, anti-communists and anarchists. The modern conservative movement had to have backing from the rich, because they immediately started up think tanks. A few years later, in '58, another anti-communist organization started called the John Birch Society. John Birch was a Baptist missionary who was killed by the Chinese communists, so he doesn't sound like a racist to me. The agenda of all these people was anti-communism and was motivated by the fear and hate of communism. Communism was a definite threat back then opposed by everyone. BTW, one of the founding members of the JBS was Fred Koch, so that is the second dot.
The New Right and JBS were getting along fine at first. They both had their magazines and JBS had plenty of followers to hand out pamplets, which was the communication of those days. My guess would be it was competition for the same resources that turned the JBS so radical. The New Right was focusing on gaining political power and had the resources to gain it. The New Right had the sense not to be radical, but JBS started going further and further out on the fringe. In '62, William F Buckley was given permission to kick them out, so he started denouncing them in his magazine. Now, you really have to picture those times, because events were happening fast. You have more involvement in Vietnam, Kennedy assassinated in '63 and the Civil Rights movement. By '64, the New Right was running Barry Goldwater for President, so they obviously had gained power in the Repubican Party. JBS saw an opportunity to expand during the Civil Rights movement and that's when they started that racist nonsense to court KKK members.
In the post Civil Rights era, the Republican Party did the same thing with it's Southern Strategy. Civil Rights divided the Democrats in the South and the Republican Party saw an opportunity to pick up those electorial votes, so they threw the Blacks under the bus. Neither JBS or the Republicans gave a shit who their supporters were, because the vote counts the same. The Republican Party paid the price of losing the Black vote, but they didn't care, because Blacks were a minority. They could lock up the South without the Blacks supporting them. Lyndon Johnson had to twist arms to get Democrats to vote for Civil Rights legislation, but he had all the Republicans supporting it, because the Blacks supported the Republicans since the Civil War. Those were weird times, we had a southern Democrat from Texas as President pushing for legislation that divided his party and the Republicans doing a flipflop to pick up the pieces.
The Southern Strategy worked great for the Republicans, because it gave them the Presidency for 20 of the next 24 years. Following Goldwater's defeat, the New Right was targeting religion, so by '80 they were able to get Reagan elected. It was only after Clinton gave the Republicans a bruising twice that a push for hard core conservatism to reshape the Republicans began. I first notice Dot three during Bush's first term and the Dot kept getting bigger. Remember those think tanks that started back in the mid '50s? They grew, but the people backing them were the same interests. How many times have you heard about the Koch brothers lately? Look at all the connections they have to think tanks pulling the strings of the right-wing! That's your Dot three and why you are part of the New JBS, whether you know it or not. The propaganda is exactly the same and the think tanks probably learned a few tricks from LaRouche, because they certainly behave like it. You right-wingers may be the puppet who believes you are making up your own mind, but you don't have a concept of who your puppet master is. It's a hell of a lot easier to gain control of the think tanks pulling your strings than sign up members.
In my opinion, JBS were just opportunists, just like the Republicans. JBS was a small organization tossed out during more honorable times. The times just weren't right for such radical behavior, but they are now. Back in those times we had communists trying to take over the world, hydrogen bombs being tested and sputnik showing us a missile gap. Those were very threatening times for all Americans and kids like me were having nuclear attack drills when I started school. Do you really need another anti-communist organization in America or are you just using an opportunity to supply a hidden agenda? They name their organization after a man killed by the communists and then a handfull of years afterwards make racist remarks to get KKK supporters, forgetting that John Birch was a missionary in China?
The pattern I see is Fred Koch did business in the Soviet Union and whether he grew to hate his old business partners isn't important. He would have curtainly observed that radical people are easy to control and they don't think rationally once radicalized. It doesn't make a difference if it's radical left or right, it's a way of controlling people and become a puppet master. There is your Dot three and were the right-wing is today.
