I find it hard to believe that he could have become Governor of MA without such a radical connection becoming extremely well known during the campaign!!!
Romney has zilch in common with the JBS. JBS may be a bit conspiracy minded, but they are conservatives and pro-sovereignty.
Really? Explain Barry O. then. LOL
Interestingly, Mitt Romney’s dad (George) made the following comment about the Birch Society and the GOP when he was Governor of Michigan:
“I think the party’s future depends upon repudiating the John Birch Society as an organization and avoiding any possibility of the society developing influence within the Party. I think this is because from experience, I have found that the John Birch Society as an organization uses methods of infiltration and subversion and tactics that we associate with other secret organizations like the Communists. And while there are members of the society that I am sure are not themselves responsible for such conduct, this conduct on the part of the organization makes it essential, as far as I’m concerned, that the Republican Party repudiate the John Birch Society as an organization.”
Cited in Chapman v. Romney, Docket #1810, Michigan Court of Appeals, 2/14/67 [6 Mich App 36 (1967); 148N.W. 2d 230]. Chapman, a member of the JBS, sued Gov. Romney for slander. The Court found in favor of Governor Romney.
