    SATAN NEVER SLEEPS

    Titles: Satan Never Sleeps


    If you recall Clifton Webb and William Holden are priests attempting to spread Christian Truths to the Chinese Barbarians in 1949 China while Holden battles his...er...manhood.

    Now you might ask, what has this to do with anything?

    Well folks, once again that bastion of freedom, the John Birch Society is back in MSM.

    As the current Millennia reared its head in opposition to THE RAPTURE, the John Birch Society was actually invited to CSPAN to spew its ugly rhetoric.  I recall this, but I cannot give you the year I can just tell you I watched it several times along with a group advocating that the gold standard should never have been abandoned. The gold standard nuts were at least more forthright about their stances.

    This was like the devil in Marlowe's tome coming across as a rather decent guy.

    So what is the John Birch Society?  Where did this bastion of truth, justice and the American Way come from anyway?

     Well I always like to start with Wiki:

    The John Birch Society is a political education and action organization founded by Robert W. Welch Jr. in Indianapolis, Indiana in 1958. The society supports traditionally conservative causes such as anti-communism and the ownership of private property.[1] It promotes U.S. independence and sovereignty and opposes globalism and international regional groups, such as the European Union, or a hypothetical North American Union

    Okie Dokie. I am glad that is cleared up. These patriots put together a group of good people who were against communism. Oh and there is fathead dobbs right with them all concerned about a North American Union. My God, communists and those dirty Hispanics although I am not sure what they have against Canada.  But these fine people were against other things, things that cause us all a lot of concern.

    Welch served as vice chairman of the Massachusetts Republican Party finance committee in 1948, and unsuccessfully ran for Lt. Governor in the 1950 Republican primary. Welch supported the ultraconservative Taft over the more moderate Eisenhower by running as a Massachusetts Taft delegate to the 1952 Republican convention. In 1952 Welch wrote May God Forgive Us, a study alleging "subversive influences" by government officials and their allies to shape "public opinion and governmental policies to favor the Communist advance." The book was published by the ultraconservative Henry Regnery Company, which in 1954 also published Welch's The Life of John Birch, which told the story of a fundamentalist missionary in China who became an intelligence agent for General Claire Chennault's Flying Tigers. Birch was killed by Chinese communist soldiers while he was on a mission at the end of WWII. In February of 1956 Welch started publishing a magazine, One Man's Opinion, and in January 1957 he left the candy business to devote his energies to "the anti-Communist cause." http://www.publiceye.org/tooclose/jbs.html

    So at least now I know who John Birch was.

    But Welch, again began as a repub and constantly called for the impeachment of Earl Warren and represented a right wing, right Christian perspective. Naturally this fed right into the cause against Civil Rights in this country.

    The "Support Your Local Police" campaign opposed the use of federal officers to enforce civil rights laws. "[T]he Communist press of America has been screaming for years to have local police forces discredited, shunted aside, or disbanded and replaced by Federal Marshals or similar agents and personnel of a national federalized police force," one article complained. Another reason articulated for opposing the civil rights movement was that it was a creation of Communists, and Birch members were urged to "Show the communist hands behind it." According to a 1967 personal letter from Welch to retired General James A. Van Fleet inviting him to serve on the Birch National Council:

    ==="Five years ago, few people who were thoroughly familiar with the main divisions of Communist strategy saw any chance of keeping the Negro Revolutionary Movement from reaching decisive proportions. It was to supply the flaming front to the whole 'proletarian revolution,' as planned by Walter Reuther and his stooge, Bobby Kennedy"  http://www.publiceye.org/tooclose/jbs.html

    Oh yeah, besides Mexicanos, we must worry about the Negroes. What a wonderful thing, this privately funded organization protecting us from our own citizens.

    Well, William Buckley, early on, was disturbed by this group. You remember Buckley, that liberal pinko commie:

    "How can the John Birch Society be an effective political instrument while it is led by a man whose views on current affairs are, at so many critical points... so far removed from common sense?" Buckley asked. The attack on the Birchers, he wrote later, "proved fatal over time." After Buckley's attack, the John Birch Society became unwelcome in mainstream conservative circles. http://www.thedailybeast.com/blogs-and-stories/2009-07-29/too-hot-for-fox-news/

    Michelle Goldberg covers the new appearance of the Birchers into MSM. Fox News of course welcomes them onto the Napolitano show called (what else?) Freedom Watch.

    That is, until recently. On July 1, John Birch Society President John McManus was a guest on Judge Andrew Napolitano's online-only Fox News show Freedom Watch, which airs every Wednesday at 2 p.m. Their chat was friendly, ranging over the "abominable doctrine of collectivism," the malevolent influence of "government schools," and the fraud of manmade global warming. Napolitano seemed to be actively trying to rehabilitate the John Birch Society's reputation. Untouchable as it once was, the group's old-right ideology fits well with the tenor of his show, which is full of figures previously dismissed as cranks--not just Birchers but 9/11 truthers and secessionists as well.

    Andrew was a Federal Judge. Can you believe it and if you go to the link and listen to the show, you will hear Andew WELCOMING a real friend in the John Birch Society. A man he shares so many ideas with.

    When this situation is taken in its proper context, one must become alarmed. I mean the birthers, the Birchers, the general besmirchers, and the secessionists all conspiring together and getting air time on the Main Stream Media.

    THIS IS SCARY STUFF!!!

    One Satan that never sleeps in the John Birch Society
