John Birch Society to co-sponser 2010 CPAC

This is great,in 1964 W. F. Buckley wrote of JBS:

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? That dilemma weighs on conservatives across America. . . . The underlying problem is whether conservatives can continue to acquiesce quietly in a rendition of the causes of the decline of the Republic and the entire Western world which is false, and, besides that, crucially different in practical emphasis from their own.

And now they're co-sponsoring CPAC.

Sarah Palin has shifted the center of the Republican party so far to the right that Oliver North is suspect.

I must say it would be nice not to have an opposition party of fucking psychos.
