Meds won't do any good. I am beginning to believe this Pat-sy has some kind of mental illness. The inane babble coming out of his mouth has no other excuse.

Buchanan's only function is to be used by the MSM as a prototype "conservative" so they can push their broad stroke view that all conservatives are stupid, ignorant and bigoted. If it were not for the leftist media, no one would pay any attention to him.

The group I traveled with was very generous in tipping everyone who worked for us, but we voted to not give this driver any tips at all.

I'm sure he figured you were a bunch of jews.

It's like when my Mom and Dad were divorcing. He wouldn't talk about her much at all, and she railed about what an awful person he was nonstop. Guess who I believed.

I heard Pat had a relative who died in a concentration camp. He was killed when he fell out of a guard tower;)

The last time Pat did anything constructive is when he was on the ballot in Florida and dumb people voted for him, thinking it was for a Democrat. (the Chad election)

Not only that but Israel protects historical Christian areas, churches and pilgrimage areas as much as they do Jewish sites.

I have spoken to many people in my church who have been fortunate to take pilgrimages to Israel. Everyone said the Israeli military, security forces and government is very protective over the Christian sites but that they also go out of their way to respect the religious beliefs and traditions of Christians visiting those sites.

You would not find that type of care of respect from a single neighboring country to Israel. In fact, some Muslim countries make it illegal to build Christian Churches, to pass out Christian literature or bibles.

All one needs to do is remember how the Palestinians desecrated the Church of the Nativity, what has been done in Bethlehem and the recent bombings of Christian areas by Hezbollah.

Yet to hear the EU and the left in this country, it's the Jeeeeeewwwwwsssss who have no respect for Muslims.

Here's the column Buchanan wrote, which, one would assume, since it's his latest commentary on the subject, is where the offending word should appear. Unless the disseminators of the "quote," John Podhoretz (and Instapundit), have some other source, there's been a mistake. The word "un-Christian" is nowhere to be found in the column.

Although certain implications come with Buchanan's argument that support Podhoretz's position that Buchanan is anti-Semitic, his (Podhoretz's) introduction of the historically loaded term "un-Christian" is more unethical, if it can't be proven that Buchanan used the term, than anything Buchanan actually wrote.

Ah! I thought it was a combination of a "buffoon" and a "baboon."

Nothing unethical about Podhoretz's position, Pat described Israel's actions as both un-Christian and un-American. You simply read the wrong column.

Where are the Christians?

But what Israel is doing is imposing deliberate suffering on civilians, collective punishment on innocent people, to force them to do something they are powerless to do: disarm the gunmen among them. Such a policy violates international law and comports neither with our values nor our interests. It is un-American and un-Christian.

Where are the Christians?

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought a Jew was, by very definition, not a Christian. Is this a trick statement of some kind or is he just brain dead?

(This guys is a baffoon)

You didn't use correct New Jersey spelling. It's "'Dis guys is a baffoon" - and not the pretentious Connecticut variant: "This fellow is a buffoon". ;)

WELL, DUH: Pat Buchanan calls Israel "un-Christian." Never mind what I'd call Pat Buchanan . . . .

I'd call him a patriotic American. Go Pat Go!

Maybe he is. I remember he had some type of brain operation, either for an aneuryism or a tumor.
