LOL. In an era of talking heads, talk radio, and other elements of "the chattering class," this advice is sure to fall on deaf ears.
Pat's always had one major problem -- the same problem that Rush Limbaugh has to a much lesser extent. These people are at their best when they are functioning as members of the unofficial opposition. The heyday of Limbaugh's radio show, and the best columns that Buchanan has ever written, date back to those 1992-94 days when the forces of the political world were arrayed against conservatives.
Now it is 2003. Limbaugh's show has lost a little flavor because he doesn't have as much to satirize about, and Buchanan is left criticizing an administration that has been, by and large, a pretty good one by most conservative standards.
This is a bunch of crap! It is the same bullsh#$* that liberals spew.
They all claim that Clintoon made Rush what he is, the facts tell a different story.
Rush increased his share of listeners more during Bush # 1's presidency than Clintoons.
It is conservatives like Buchanan that do more harm to our cause than good. I put Buchanan in the same ilk as Timothy McVeigh, they ensure liberals success when they are successful.
Now I agree that Buchanan is not as evil as the McVeigh's of the world, but the political results is often the same.
This administration has diminished the Constitution, increased the power of federal government, has a policy of attacking nations that have not attacked us and embraced deficit spending. Government employment is growing and private sector employment is shrinking. Not to mention the fact that the government supports importing hitech workers and exporting hitech jobs.
How is this conservative?
