Bircher: Someone who is conservative, but has the social acceptance of an Amway rep.

Got anything intelligent to say about these 20 year old immigration amnesty articles?

I suspect that you're LDS given your screen name.

Are you old enough to remember Ezra Taft Benson?

President Benson was a strong support of the John Birch Society. He purchased a yearly subscription of The New American magazine for every member of the Quorum of the Twelve and the First Presidency. I even have a letter signed by President Benson on Church letterhead where he said that aside from the Church itself, the John Birch Society is the finest organization on earth.

I agree that because of leftist opposition, and the lies and smears that go along with that, that the JBS's public image does suffer. So does the image of the LDS Church for other similarly unfair reasons. That doesn't make it right. I avoid attacking the JBS. You may want to consider that before you join the crowd attacking the organization.
