You guys ever been to this web page:

A Debate With A Bircher: Part One

It begins thusly:

What you are about to read is shocking. It is the story of a debate with a chapter leader of the John Birch Society that started off with good intentions, but never really evolved into a serious discussion. Thanks to an unwillingness to acknowledge even the most obvious of errors and a touch of Birch form, the truth quickly took a back seat to preconception and ego rather than a thoughtful exchange of ideas. The entire debate as it happened is here unedited with the exception of a few spelling errors. All non-relevant material was deleted for the sake of brevity.

...

One of the most striking tactics that the John Birch Society (JBS) and other conspiracy theorists commonly use on this issue is to overwhelm the opponent with information. The assumption, of course, is the common fallacy of logic that since there is so much information available on the subject that it must be true; the sheer enormity of printed text unquestionably makes it fact.

You guys are 'Birchers' aren't you?

You post from a website that has no credability......how do you know any of what you read is true? This debate probably was staged..to make the Birchers look uninformed and ignorant.

And no, I'm not a Bircher..although they have more on the ball than the average Republican.

I am a free thinker...I read a lot... And I base my opinions on what I know.

You read what is on the internet...and it shows.

There is a lot of dis-information out there.

Think for a moment....the ADL and the communist party are dead set against the Birchers.

The ADL will do anything including propaganda to destroy any credability of any group that stands for strong nationalism.....

The ADL and the Communists in this country are continually fighting to destroy our freedoms, our borders, our national heritage.

I find the Birchers a whole hell of a lot better than the communists and the ADL.......
