What is he smoking? I give up, I don't understand so-called conservatives like Buchanan and Sobran.

William F. Buckley, Jr. was right a long time ago about both Buchanan and Sobran. I was skeptical at first, but I have noticed an undeniable trend since his public break with Pat and Joe. Listen to them long enough -- on any topic -- and the conversation inevitably comes around to the Jooos. Jooos who control Bush. Jooos who control US foreign policy. Jooos who control all the money. Jooos who control this and that. It is the same with their followers. If they were right, the all-powerful Jooos wouldn't be fighting for their homeland.

The first signal these people emit is heavy use of the words "neoconservative" or the more derisive "neocon," which are codewords for Jooo. They have learned to target token gentiles and to ally with a handful of self-loathing Jews for cover, but the objects of their venom are overwhelmingly Jooos. In the world of Buchanan and Sobran, America would have had no beef with Hitler. His latest argument that we have no argument with Hizb'Allah fits the same pattern. Pat Buchanan is consumed by his hatred of Jews.

Pat Buchanan's behavior is disreputable, and he should be shunned by polite society.

You nailed it. Yes, Pat has a Jew problem. I no longer pay him any attention, at least on this topic.

I had a conversation with a guy at the office. He is religious. As it happens, he is African-American and votes Democrat. I mentioned the Catholic view on one topic and he said something like - "Oh, I don't listen to those Catholics." I was surprised. All the more so in that I've never heard him condemn atheistic communism. If anything, he may be sympathetic to communists.

The point of this story, in the context of Pat and Joe, is that some people define religion too narrowly. If others are, theologically speaking, one inch away, they reject them. Oddly enough, people who are theologically ten feet away, or a mile away, may be all right. To me, it is irrational.

However it might make an odd sort of sense. Those who are truly different might be converted. Those who are similar are competitors. Sometimes sibling rivalry is the fiercest kind.
