There's some good callers this time, and a bunch of drama in the chatroom when the Selatys find out people have been impersonating them.
Criticise the formats I'm putting these in :argh:

This is just annoying, I can't even find this funny. The younger idiot host is going on about how organic foods and grass fed cows are a return to less regulated, small scale free market capitalism. :psyduck: No it isn't rear end in a top hat. It's a loving backlash against the lack of regulations and the low quality food being pumped out by large scale agrobusiness. These people have an epic amount of idiocy.

John Birch Society: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Birch_Society

the name changes but the agenda remains the same pretty much. I think the Tea party formed to avoid the stigma of the name while vomiting forth a lot of the same crap. the two are pretty much ubiquitous with each other in the minds of a lot of older people who thought they were crazy thirty years ago.

You need something of at least 12mm or larger to reach that height or even be effective, I want to say the smallest caliber cannon for AA use is the .50 Cal, but that doesn't reach 10,000 ft.

This doesn't even count the fact that drones are very hard to spot from a distance, and they are very small, so its going to be hard as hell to hit anyways. Even with something fairly large caliber (40mm Bofors) you probably wouldn't hit it.

Well, the tea party is basically an artificial astroturf version of John Bircher bullshit started by big tobacco, the koch brothers, and other corporate interests. The John Birch society was similarly used as a tool by big corporate interests back in the day though.

Accurate destruction of a predator drone with man-portable weaponry would require you to see it and have highly illegal personal guided missile systems capable of picking it out. i am unaware of any standard ball round style weapon capable of both reaching and hitting accurately. flak guns maybe, but you still have to know it's there.

I wasn't aware of this but during CPAC in 2010, the John Birch Society was invited as a co-sponsor of the event, ending the JBS's longstanding exile from the mainstream conservative movement.

http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2010/02/farright-john-birch-society-2010/

quote:

ABC's Jonathan Karl reports: This week’s Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington has a co-sponsor from the far-right fringe of American politics: The John Birch Society. According to Ian Walters, a spokesman for CPAC, it’s the first time the John Birch Society has sponsored the conference. That’s not surprising, considering that the Birch Society has long been considered wacky and extreme by conservative leaders. William F. Buckley famously denounced the John Birch Society and its founder Robert Welch in the early 1960s as “idiotic” and “paranoid. “ Buckley’s condemnation effectively banishing the group from the mainstream conservative movement. Welch had called President Dwight D. Eisenhower a “conscious, dedicated agent of the communist conspiracy” and that the U.S. government was “under operational control of the Communist party.” Buckley argued that such paranoid rantings had no place in the conservative movement or the Republican party. Two years after Buckley’s death, the John Birch Society is no longer banished; it is listed as one of about 100 co-sponsors of the 2010 CPAC. Why is the Birch Society a co-sponsor? “They’re a conservative organization,” said Lisa Depasquale, the CPAC Director for the American Conservative Union, which runs CPAC. ” Beyond that I have no comment.” On its website, the Birch Society describes it mission as to “to warn against and expose the forces that seek to abolish U.S. independence, build a world government, or otherwise undermine our personal liberties and national independence. The John Birch Society endorses the U.S. Constitution as the foundation of our national government, and works toward educating and activating Americans to abide by the original intent of the Founding Fathers. We seek to awaken a sleeping and apathetic people concerning the designs of those who are working to destroy our constitutional Republic.”

That is a drat loving good barometer of the depths of just how batshit insane that the mainstream GOP is these days, that they'd let crazies like these back in CPAC.

Also, for emphasis:

quote:

Welch had called President Dwight D. Eisenhower a “conscious, dedicated agent of the communist conspiracy” and that the U.S. government was “under operational control of the Communist party.”

Today it is fashionable for MAINSTREAM REPUBLICANS to call the president a communist. John Bircher insanity has become the new GOP mainstream mode of thought.


The only way that's going to stop is if the saner voices in the GOP start aggressively shouting down the crazies - with lots of help from abject ridicule and exposure of just how insane these fuckers are.

Exactly. Nothing ballistic is going to hit it, that is if you even see it. Its so damned small.

Even if you had something on the scale of a German 88mm which are long since gone, and you could SEE it, you'd have a hell of a time getting a hit.

They also did one about bullets that I remember.

But regardless of if falling bullets are deadly, can any bullet reach the altitude of a drone?

The mysthbusters concluded that if a bullet goes straight up, then straight down it isn't deadly because of terminal velocity. But if it has any angle at all it could be deadly as the angle would preserve the bullets momentum. Bullets can probably go pretty high up, but not drone high.

For reference GOProud, a gay conservative organization that until very recently was against gay marriage and is still against the employement non-discrimination act and opposed to hate crime legislation is banned from CPAC for being too controversial.

That's right, a gay group so conservative they oppose gay rights is banned but the JBS is cool.

Should we let them know that the cold war ended? I think a lot of them don't even know that it's been over for a while, and the biggest communist country is now a staunch trade partner as it moves towards a more capitalist style economy. Which country is Obama a supposed to be a mind-control communist plant for, exactly? North Korea? Cuba?

Not that that changes the fact that the John Birchers were crazy and stupid as hell during the height of the cold war as well.

To be accurate, the Birchers have also been disinvited. However, white nationalists John Derbyshire, Peter Brimelow, and Robert Vandervoort are still honored guests.
