The John Birch Society is one of the best patriotic organizations we have.

Yes yes, but the middle road groupies and the liberal wing of the Republican party thinks they're too insensitive...ka-ka-po-po

No. That would be too deranged, antisemitic and racist.

And when did Ronald Reagan, Barry Goldwater and Bill Buckley become "middle road groupies and the liberal wing of the Republican party"?

The JBS is the MoveOn.org of the right. The biggest comparative advantage conservatives have over the left is that they are increasingly perceived as extremist and disconnected from reality, whereas conservatives are perceived as adult and sober because we conservatives have rejected and marginalized our extremists, while liberals have embraced and subjugated to theirs. Those who wish to readmit the JBS to the conservative movement would have us cast aside this advantage. Nope. Conservatives don't do crazy. Take it elsewhere.

Don’t you realize that the left perceives you as a right wing crazy extremist too? They think that (the very liberal) Joe Lieberman is a right wing extremist whenever he doesn’t agree with them 100%.

If the JBS wasn’t so right about the left, the left would have ignored them.

There are many republicans that don’t want to associate with conservatives because we hold such quaint attitudes abouts guns, the Bible, and life. They are embarrassed by us.

The truth is that our RINOs are really just liberals in disguise and they are aligned with the left. That is why the JBS is painted as extreme.
