After looking around a bit, I think it becomes pretty obvious it's not really a product of the Birchers. They were opportunistic, and used the whole idea to further their agenda, but as I posted, the same controversy is going on in europe, and includes the looney right and left currently in the U.S. Isn't that usually how it works? The politicians change their "values" to match ones already in existence, rather than having original opinions themselves. The fact a politician champions some issue doesn't mean it came from them. kj.
