I remember Limbaugh attacked Pat Buchanan from the Left when Buchanan was running for the presidency.

I remember when you could get banned on FR for liking Pat too much. In fact he was branded an anti-semite.

“In fact [Buchanan] was branded an anti-semite.”

I have been aware of that and I think William F. Buckley wrote a sort of hit piece about that. Former NR writer Joseph Sobran wrote that Buckley did that to head off accusations of him (Buckley) being an anti-semite. But I missed that whole thing; could never figure that out. I do remember, and I think that it was in that same article, that Buckley stated that Buchanan was more a prophet than politician, and that if the country is to survive, it will be along the lines laid down by Buchanan.
