It can be saved, but not from Buchanan's advice.
Sen. Rick Santorum please stay away as far as possible to now "independent" and liberal media darling, pat buchanan.
ping
bttt
Pat, please just slither away.
If I saw Pat betting on red in Vegas,my money goes to black. He is a bitter man that never accepted the fact that he was rejected by the rank and file Republicans in 92.
Go Pat Go Away!!!
And pat buchanan has won how many elections?(the answer is zero)
If any Santorum staffer or Sen. Santorum himself is reading this, don't get close to liberal media darling pat buchanan.
Advice for the GOP from a man who got .0003 percent of the vote?
I think Al Sharpton got more votes than Buchanan.
"Backing up Braybender is the same Strategic Value poll that found 79 percent of Pennsylvanians opposed to amnesty and 82 percent favoring a wall on the Mexican border"
Anyone who thinks bush wants a wall must be delusional. He could have had anything he wanted 5 years ago. Additionally, the HUGE bipartisan public support for a wall is almost unprecedented on any major issue, yet the major parties are refusing to do it, or when something passes, refuse to fund it.
I see Human Events has drunk the Clown Car Media Koolaid on the state of the economy. Full employment and wage increases of 7% AFTER inflation for the first half of 06, to say nothing of 4.25% GNP growth has us "treading water?" And keep in mind many in the middle class ARE among the investor classes. I wish the media, including some conservatives, would get over their conventional wisdom that the economy is somehow floundering. High gas prices are not the only game in town, which in any event are dropping.
The problem with Pat Buchanan is that he is occasionally right. What should be the GOP immigration strategy is obvious to anyone outside the beltway. What a missed opportunity! How often do you get a huge issue on which doing the right thing is hugely popular and your opponents are totally against it? The GOP had a high fastball they could have knocked out of the park. The GOP could have crushed the Rats and on the twin issues of National Security and Illegal Immigration making them a small minority for another decade. Instead they are floundering in political correctness and there jobs are on the line.
No one is suggesting Rick show up on MSNBC sitting next to Pat. Pat just happens to be correct on this particular issue (and wrong on most others).
" And pat buchanan has won how many elections?(the answer is zero"
why bother to read the message when you can just attack the messenger?
Buchanan could say 'the sky is blue' and he would be attacked on this forum.
His comments on immigration are dead-on, and the GOP deserves to get creamed for ignoring lopsided public opinion on this issue.
So? I guess if a store woner is selling gas at 50% below his cost, is a ok with you since he is "right" on that issue, but wrong in that he will lose his shirt in the end.
