Integrity surfaces.

I have to go for the evening, but I will close by saying this:

I supported GHW Bush fully in '92. Thought Buchanan's challenge had a few good policy points, but that it was all generally about Pat's ego.

I knew all about Perot, even then. He reminds me of Arnold. Hardcore pro-abort who managed to convince some naive folks he was somehow a conservative. Not a chance. He made his billions off the public teat, and was not even close to the image he projected.

In '96, I was serving on the Republican State Committee in Iowa, and therefore took no position in the GOP presidential primaries. Besides, I was busy working to try and defeat Commie Tommy Harkin. I knew all the candidates fairly well, including Bob Dole. While I always respected Senator Dole on some very real levels, mainly because of his war record, I also never thought he was a strong candidate. But I fully supported him anyway.

Anything after that is irrelevent, because after '96, Pat Buchanan became a total irrelevency, by his own hand. I could tell you stories.

Again, to smear the vast bulk of conservatives with the Buchanan brush is absolutely counterproductive and is a nasty RAT-like tactic to boot.

Later.
