The point I find telling is that none of his neo-cons are Gentiles.

I do admire Buchanan on his immigration, cultural and trade views. However, his isolationist policy is unworkable as it simply allows the monsters to grow. And I do fear that his criticism of neo-cons is predicated on something less than honest policy differences.

That is not the first time either. William Buckley commented on this same tactic of attacking Jews at an earlier time.

Following this incident, Buchanan "pronounced the names of four important men who influence public policy, whom he identified with the hyper-bellicose wing of the anti-Saddam forces." Those men were columnist A. M. Rosenthal, former assistant secretary of defense Richard Perle, columnist Charles Krauthammer, and Henry Kissinger. Buckley writes that these men have many things in common, but "the most conspicuous of these is that they are all Jewish. . . . The evidence that the Jewish factor was engrossing Buchanan mounted. And then whatever coincidence might in desperation have been pleaded for this aggregation of all-Jewish anti-Hussein activists, its usefulness expired when Pat Buchanan went on to write that if we went to war, the fighting would be done by 'kids with names like McAllister, Murphy, Gonzales, and Leroy Brown.'

When he jumped ship to the reform party, I was peeved. Here he was saying that he left the Republican Party because the platform was faulty. And yet he signed on to a platform that was pro-choice, IIRC. How do you go from being vociferously pro-life to that? The bloom was off the rose for me at that point.

I can abide a pro-choice position that is honestly arrived at, if that's possible, but I think you know what I mean. However, what I can't abide is a convenient slide such as it appeared he took.

Savage has an interesting take on Buchanan. He says he doesn't think he's an anti-semite just that he doesn't like Israelis, and went on to say that Israelis are hard to like. And I know he's Jewish, and proud of it. Not that his opinion is the be all and end all, but I did find it interesting.

Don't mean to be thick, but I don't quite get what you're saying here.

I think his trade views would do the Country little good. I agree with him generally on immigration and cultural issues too. It's too bad he became so radio-active. And while I know he's radio-active I can't for the life of me remember exactly what made his so, I mean specifically. Like I said before, he is a smart guy, and if I thought he was anti-semitic I wouldn't say that I think there's a place for him at the Republican table too.
