No, actully the quotes come from the Blue Book, which is mine. Passed down from my grandmother who fought the Birchers in the 60s.

The wikipedia links to the John Birch Society and its founder are for those who may be unfamiliar with the group.

Highly recommended. Reading Dr. Seuss books would be more intellectually provocative than reading his nonsense.

I know that you went after the Communist Veterans assembled in Washington for VA Benefits during the depression and tried to use their Socialist agitation as an excuse to overthrow the elected government until General Smedley Butler outed you.

I know of a young Banker named Bush rallying the Corporations to the cause of a Right Wing Minority Party in Germany there and how they Thyssen, Krupp and Farben wound up imprisoned by the Fascists they brought to power. I can see in Dick Armey they Prescott bush of the 1930s

Yes the lessons of history is not lost on me, unfortunately there doesn't appear to be one brave soul on the right who will denounce it as William F Buckley did.

But I see you, and I know what you are
Uh huh, I remember you as well, and also know what you are. You were part of the crowd of 'protesters' who spit at my Father because he had the audacity to were his uniform home from Viet Nam. Swooning and mooning over the likes of Jane Fonda, Bill Ayers, Malcolm X and their ilk. You lament the ousting of Jimmy Carter, and say he was a 'great president' who was merely misunderstood. You swirled and twirled at Woodstock, and spewed hatred for the soldiers who were fighting and dying in Southeast Asia, while professing the benefits of 'free love'. You dosed yourselves with every narcotic, stimulant, and hallucinate substance you could lay your hands on, and called the ramblings and rantings you spewed while under influence of the same 'revelations'. You gathered and rioted, burning buildings, throwing rocks and bottles, overturning cars and attacking the "Pigs' of the Establishment' and called it peaceful protest under the First Amendment. The lessons of history are not lost on me either. The wrongs you cite are certainly prime examples of things this country should NOT be proud of, but, if you would cast folks like me (political conservatives) into the same category as those who perpetrated those wrongs, I would return the favor, since you would fail to mention the sick and twisted things your precious "liberalism' is responsible for. It is your precious 'liberalist' mindset, that we see at work out here in cattle country, poisoning our watering stations, blowing up our water wiers, sabotaging Fish & Wildlife game release programs and shooting our cattle that are on open graze land. In timber country you destroy economies by protesting the lumber industry, spiking trees, blowing up equipment, and wildly cheering when all the workers are layed off, and put out of work. Never do you realize that the corporations who own these operations now just sell our raw logs to China and Japan, who sell it back to us finished. yep, you showed them evil doers ...dincha? Clean up you own garbage before running down your neighbor for his. I know, all to well, who YOU are as well. Hypocrite is a mild term, but it will suffice for now..............

Pondering the dreams of such a mind could be quite frightening. Comparable to dabbling in black magic in an attempt to summon demons. Do you REALLY want to go there? LMAO, personally, I believe some things are better left alone.
