CAP USA: 'The John Birch Society vs. The Communists'

Source:CAP USA- Robert Welch, founder of the JBS.

"(Circa 1965) John Birch Society founder Robert Welch lists the stark differences in operating principles between the JBS and the communists (now called Neocons and liberal Democrats)." 

From CAP USA 

Robert Welch, the founder of JBS, was one of the strongest opponents of Communists and leaders of the New-Right. (People who are strong opponents of Communists and pluralism) And in the early days of the Cold War (between the United States and Soviet Union) people who believed in freedom were freaking out about Communists and communism and not freaked out about it, but paranoid. There would be Communist sightings like there are Elvis Presley sightings today. People were supposedly finding Communists everywhere. 

Because of the national freak out about Communists and communism in America (what others call the Red Scare) the New-Right in America (Fascists and Communists) took advantage of that. 

The New-Right in Congress with people like Senator Joe McCarthy and his McCarthy hearings in the Senate, took advantage of that and attempted to locate every Communist in America, especially in the U.S. Government and bring them out of their Marxist closets. 

This is what Robert Welch and the John Birch Society represented back then, as well as today. They see pretty much everyone who is to the Left of them (including Conservatives and Libertarians) as potential Communists.
