Definitely close the border! A complete moratorium penalizes others though. But we aren't doing enough to discourage people from trying to be here illegally.
Make that, “upthread,” Pat. Upthread, downthread, you’ll hear it everywhere. But it is old.
I worked very hard for Pat Buchanan in his quest for the White House. If he had won, I wonder if we’d not be in this precarious position we are in with killer trade deficits, and many other problems we now face.
Agree .....maybe Pat wrote that chapter a few years ago........long time from proof read to press per se....
Let’s keep whistling in the dark
Pat is to political commentary what the first Black Sabbath album is to rock and roll: pure doom and gloom. At least Ozzy, Tony, Bill, and Geezer, however, were just pretending.
I might not agree with every word from Pat. But he is closer than anyone else, IMO.
And he has been closer for a long time.
So, yes, it seems to me that we'd not be in quite the precarious position as now if Pat had won.
That's painfully obvious to anyone paying attention.
But we can turn this around. It won’t be easy, but it will be worth it to save America. The sooner we get started, the better.
I watch telemundo on occasion, and this morning featured “Conchoman”..
A sort of Superman whose man mission seemed to be tearing down the Wall on the Border, so families could head north..
No, I’m not making Conchoman up....but I may have misspelled his name.
Sergei! We agree! :) I think Duncan Hunter liked Pat Buchanan, too.
Agreed. Pat has his faults but he’s right more often than wrong. He sounds alarmist but I think we need some alarm bells. He’s particularly right about culture. I’m a big fan of R&R having been brought up in the 50s and 60s and I’m aware that R&R is not about limits, let alone boundaries. But we’re entering new territory when the “music” culture speaks of our mothers, sisters, and daughter as “bitches’ and “hos.” And the corporations could care less if they make a buck. Look at the Ford Motor Company and their business ties with their new poet laureate, a certain “Funkmaster Flex.” His “ballads” speak of the bloody anuses of young women. Shame on Ford. Check out some of the lyrics of this guy. They’re readily available. Amazing! These companies will stop at nothing if they can get a little more money. Thank God that we have people like Pat who will not be silenced as we enter the abyss.
Some people are just the last to know. ;-)
MSNBC still periodically identifies Buchanan as a “Republican Analyst.” He might be, but I think it’s funny.
“. . . a border fence from San Diego to Brownsville;...”
If fences don’t work the one around the White House should be taken down.
Without getting into a point by point consideration of Buchanan’s argument, I have to say I tend to agree with his conclusion; America is falling aprt, and often, IMO, seems to be in the throes of a prolonged national suicide.
Problem is, the sheeple don't notice.
1979 and the Carter Administration was a bleak year and Reagan, the Sunshine Conservative, said America's best days were yet to come.
I have no opinion on some of what PB says in the article, agree with a great deal of it, and disagree with the rest. Watch that sneaky GREE, get you every time. I predict it will be a best seller as soon as it is released, or before if that’s possible. He strikes a great many notes that ring true.
Oh, and Pat, who the fudge are you to start excluding people when you belong to a Church that is headquartered in Rome?
