<< The republican who is single-handedly responsible for the eight years of Clinton is former president George Herbert Walker Bush. >>

He was there, for sure -- but was on our side. Buchanan's idiotic un-and-anti Republican Party ranting and raving aided abetted and asisted only Democrats -- and slid the awful Arkansas aberration in on the votes of 16% of the electorate -- including massive electoral fraud.

George Bush Sr. who said no new taxes and lied is on our side? What side is that exactly?
Folks love to sneer at the extremists when the "far left" and the "far right" share some common ground, but how about liberal republicans and liberal democrats? When was the last time government got smaller? And I mean overall, anyone can point to the elimination of this or that program but overall the government has gotten bigger under EVERY president since Calvin Coolidge.
I was for republicans when it seemed that they were for less government, George Bush Sr. disabused me of that notion, not Pat Buchanan.

Pat Buchanan "campaigned" actively for the senior George Bush after the 1992 primaries. Buchanan's speech at the Houston convention will be long remembered for its clarion call to fight and prevail in the ongoing "cultural war." Immediately after that speech, the Bush-Quayle ticket enjoyed its last resurgence in the opinion polls.

Pat Buchanan was a symptom of the first Bush's political problems. He did not contribute to Bush's defeat. Most of the Perotistas of 1992 were NOT Buchananites. Perot, for instance, refused to support Buchanan as the "Reform" Party candidate in 2000. The Buchanan people stood loyally behind Bush-Quayle. We did nothing to aid Clinton-Gore.
