"Now, maybe he just likes broken crosses, or maybe he thinks Hitler was a genius (as Pat Buchanan does). I don't know. Do you?"

Now, sir, I have got your number. It is becoming most obvious that you puposely quote out of context, that you may imply injury where none exist, and thus affect gross character assassination. We both know full well, Sinkspur, that Pat Buchanan did in no way advanced the message of Hitler being a "genius" under a positive light, which you here ascribe to him very shrewdly. The context of Buchanan's remark revolved around Hitler's cunning, as a populist orator, to manipulate an entire nation. Even as Hitler set to motion a system that accomplished efficiency in the material realm--which one could generically ascribe the character of organizational "genious," doing so in no way implies a benevolent, or otherwise complimentary, global sense of the word, for Hitler's true "genious" was that of being supremely evil.

Sinkspur, while I may not agree with Mr. Buchanan on several issues, I would still maintain my integrity by quoting the man in full context. That you willfully attempt to turn the phrase, in order to slander Pat Buchanan, is obvious.

How much of Pat Buchanan have you read? The man is obsessed with 1) Jews and 2) Hitler. Bill Buckley concluded, in 1992, that he could not defend Pat against charges of anti-semitism, and Pat has only gotten worse as time has gone on.

Pat's dad was an old "America Firster", a follower of the Jew-hating Fr. Coughlin and the Hitler-admiring Charles Lindbergh. Pat himself has argued against the theory of diesel engines being used in concentration camps, and defended the infamous John Demjanjuk against charges of being a guard in a Nazi concentration camp, only to find out that ole John had been a guard in a Russian concentration camp.

Pat's pretty well discredited himself, and will never be anything but an interesting anachronism.
