+1.

Yes, he was the go to “Conservative” for MSNBC. Not because he was an eloquent and effective spokesman for our cause - but to discredit us with his clumsy thinking and reflexive antisemitism.

Because at Free Republic we know that MSNBC firing someone isn't an issue AT ALL about his 1st Amendment right to free speech?

Because at Creators they were stupid enough to fall for Buchanan's idiotic formulation that his views were being silenced!

MSNBC declining to pay Pat does not diminish his first amendment rights.

Is that the discussion of free speech you wanted?

He wasn’t criminal. But, he sould not have been surprised how it ended. He has been surrounded by the Hard Left for years at MSLSD. Did he think that these savage pigs and their allies would not turn on him?

What anti-semitism? I never heard it.
Then you either have not read Pat Buchanan's pieces or don't think that anything short of calling for mass murder of Jews is antisemitism.

It was not his anti-semitism. The people who fired him hate Israel as much as he does.

It was his expression as a member of a forbidden race - whitey - concerning the current the status of white Americans and the country their ancestors built in light of the Left’s multicultural scheme of diversity racism. It’s not pretty. And no one white is supposed to mention it. Whitey does not get a tribal voice or point of view in socialist multiculturalism. That’s raaaacis! Pat was okay as long as he just targeted Republicans.

...calling for mass murder of Jews is antisemitism.

You're going to have to point directly to that. I don't see that anywhere in the link you posted.

Not all evil people are liberals, but all liberals are evil.
They embrace it......mother’s milk to them.

You obviously are too dense to discern the difference between the views of a traditional, constitutional republican such as Buchanan and the vast mushy Republicans that populate the National Review and the crappy GOP and too wimpy to stand up to the left. Just another worthless chump in this war.

Liberalism's philosophy or ideology is evil’s playground, for sure. Any degree of evil an be rationalized as good and just.

I’m sure he’ll keep his long-time gig at the McLaughlin Group.

The McLaughlin Group is a panel show on pbs fri. night and Sun. morning, evenly divided between libs of varying degrees and conservatives likewise. I love their raucous 25 min. exchanges.

Buchanan is not an effective or eloquent spokesman for Conservatism - that is why he is so popular as a hired talking head for media outlets who abhor conservatism.

He is a reactionary antisemite who can be counted upon to say favorable things about Hitler.

He is not a traditional constitutional Republican as much as he is a reflexively antiSemetic nationalist.

Moreover there was no 1st Amendment issues with his no longer being paid to disgrace conservatism by MSNBC.

Obviously you are too dense to discern that MSNBC didn't hire Buchanan to advance conservatism but to put him up as an ugly caricature of a Conservative.

In his dotage Bill Buckley developed a sad record of turning on his conservative friends. Buckley had socialized for years with liberals- wasn’t Galbraith one he often mentioned?- and some think that he was seeking to ingratiate himself with that society as the years went by. I’ve read a number of accounts from people who knew him well, I think it was Peter Brimelow’s that was one of the most insightful.

“On Pres Nixon’s downfall:

“He paid the price for trying to help an old, dear and loyal friend.”

—that friend being AG Mitchell who was about to be crucified by the Liberal Democrat Watergate Witch Trials. “

If you have never read “Silent Coup” by Colodny and Gettlin you should try to find a copy. It describes in detail how Nixon believed that Mitchell had organized the break in, and Nixon was trying to protect him. Mitchell thought that Nixon had ordered the break in, and Mitchell was trying to protect Nixon. They didn’t discuss Watergate with each other so they never learned that neither had organized the burglary.

Colodny and Gettlin believe that the man who actually conceived the break in was none other than John Dean, whose fiancee had been a high priced call girl operating out of the DNC offices that were the target of the burglary. Dean managed to bring down the Nixon administration in his successful effort to save his own hide from going to jail.

There are some here who are indeed reverse bigots and Christians who envy Jews and by extension Israel...it is absolutely bizarre Glen Beck style behavior

and one simply cannot criticize Israel

Israel is like Sarah Palin

infallible

the truths about Israel, Jews, Jewish envying Goyim and yes even Sarah Palin

is not so simple

I applaud you and Vendome

bravery in the face of the smear bomb

I own Suicide of a Superpower and think everyone should read it even anti-Semite baiters here

(did they get bored with Ron Paul maybe?)

anyhow...does that mean I share Pat's views on Israel..no

but do I agree with him on the Culture War and Race and the loss of a White or Christian majority here in my country where my ancestors have been long before the whiners folks came?

you betcha

they don't like it...that's too bad...I don't care what PC freepers have to say anymore...they are part of the problem far more than Pat Buchanan is
