Odd Endorser: Buchanan Vouches For Zbieg on Jewish Issues
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 05/20/2008 5:20:37 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Like choosing Rosie O'Donnell to vouch that someone isn't a 9-11 conspiracy nut . . .

Of all the people Mika Brzezinski might have selected to stick up for her father when he was portrayed as a problem for Obama with Jewish voters, Pat Buchanan isn't the first one who springs to mind. Yet that's who Mika [subbing as host for Joe Scarborough, home in Florida awaiting the birth of a baby] called on to defend her dad on today's Morning Joe.

The odd endorsement came at about 6:35 AM EDT today, after Mika highlighted an op-ed in today's Wall Street Journal by Global View columnist [and former Jerusalem Post editor] Bret Stephens entitled Obama and the Jews. Stephens's item contained these lines [emphasis added]:

Mika asks an anti-semite to reassure her that her father is not an anti-semite. I was laughing out loud at the whole thing.

But, but...they have actually had Jews to dinner...in their very own home!!!

There is no wondering about Pat “SS” Buchanan.

Susan and Joe Scarborough...

"In October 2001, Scarborough married Susan Waren, a former aide to Florida Governor Jeb Bush and a former congressional committee staffer. They live in Pensacola with their daughter Kate and his two sons, Joey and Andrew from his first marriage to Melanie Hinton."

(When I read your article that mentioned that Joe and his wife are having a baby, I was curious and looked up his biography in Wikipedia.)

Mika used the "Some of our best friends are Jewish..." defense. I had your reaction...I thought I wound up in a parallel universe with Patsy defending Zbig on charges of being anti-Jewish. Too frickin' funny...

How in the world did Patsy keep a straight face?

Call me stupid, but I did not know Mika was Zbig’s daughter. I knew he had a son involved in nefarious activities, but to have his daughter working in the media as well is just precious. Obama is the new Jimmy Carter, this is like a bad dream reappearing.

She used to be totally in the tank for B. Hussein, but has modified herself lately and is a bit less of a cheerleader for him.

I figured you were being sarcastic. I just couldn’t resist the opportunity to give a curmudgeonly opinion.

Zbigniew Brezinski is most definitely not pro Israel. He is pro-Ayatollah and like a bone head he got rid of the Shah and brought in Khomeini. Along with jimmy Carter of course
