If you keep Buchanan's chronic anti-Semitism and
isolationism in mind all his statements are totally
scripted and predictable. He wouldn't admit it but his
absurd notion that our support for Israel is partly to
blame for terrorist attacks is a subliminal pro-terrorist
propensity -- after all, if terrorists hate Israel, they
can't be THAT bad! Let them drive the Jews into the sea --
we shouldn't get involved!
There was a time when I had some respect for Pat Buchanan. I think he called it right at the '92 convention. But, Pat, the train done left the station and you're still standing on the platform holding your bags. I'm not sure what you would call Pat Buchanan. But I think he and Charles Lindbergh would have been great company.

Actually (and I don't want too hit this to hard) he's correct. As OBL has said one of the reasons he attacked us was we were in Saudi Arabia and our support of Israel, and (the radical Islamists say) our support for the dictator in the area. Of corse if they have their way it'll be a "meet the new boss same as the old boss" kind of situation.
