Look up the etymology of the word "algebra" and the word "zero" along with words like "azimuth" - vitally important concepts in the development of Western science and mathematics. Also take a look at your keyboard and note the lack of Roman numerals on the top row.

Also look up alcohol. That was then, this is now. Araby hasn't done a damn thing since they were driven out of Spain.

Last time I was in Bozeman, Montana I didn't encounter a single Latino.

Well don't worry, they're heading there. When the residents of Bozeman, Montana wake up one morning and feel as if they're in Mexico, they'll know what the rest of us have been feeling.

Have you lived in any of the border counties lately or cities of extremely high immigration? You won't hear much English spoken anymore ---especially in every housing project around here it's not spoken at all.

Same here in Texas. I hear Spanish all the time, some of these people even talk to you in Spanish expecting you to understand their language but by God they don't want to learn ours. My mother told me about a man she came across at the hair salon who has been here for twenty years and doesn't speak a word of English. That's the mentality of many of these folks. Get ready middle America, your turn is coming. :)

Which was beside the point...your fellow boy in the (white) hood insisted that Western civ wasn't open to new ideas from outside the West during the Renaissance. He was wrong. I made no futher claims about Arab civilization other than when they were open to new ideas their civilization flourished (i.e. they preserved many of the ancient Greek texts) when they closed themselves off they crumbled - which was the main point of all this - that when we start thinking that no one else on earth has ideas to consider we will crumble just as surely.

If I were in the DNC, I'd print out this thread and use it in campaign mailers. I know that people like you are a tiny but loud minority in the GOP and are politically inert (What were Pat's vote totals again?) but it does bother me to see such ugly displays of hate masquerading as conservatism.

Many employers seem to disagree. It not like they're importing people just to ruin your life. If it isn't profitable then you won't see a lot of people doing it. No one deliberately attempts to lose money in a venture.

The dude was a stain. His stuff read like a liberal's charicature of what a conservative is like, replete with bigotry and vitriol. I am surprised that it took Jim that long- then again it was early out on the west coast.

Yet I see tons of people who are not being racist discussing the issues of Buchanan's piece on this thread (many agreeing with him), not being deleted.

I see you, not being deleted.

And I see this thread up.

My question for you is- if you are so unhappy with the way this site is run, why are you here? Why don't you leave?

Why do people like you seem to have an agenda to discredit Jim Robinson and his site?

That should have said "a liberal's charicature of what they would like to portray conservatives like".

what buchanan fails to realize is the lesson of 9-11...

and that is that one well placed and tragic event can change everything...

no one can predict with any accuracy what the year 2050 will look like...

based on recent events it's more likely that nuclear reprisal will change the fate of the West from pat's dismal tale!

pat has sensationalized for the sake of book sales and shoring up his failing presidency bid - he's looking bad...

No one is suggesting that we close ourselves off to the world. Advocating an annual immigrant inflow of 250,000 per year, as Buchanan does, rather than the 1.2 million or so who are showing up here now, does not constitute "closing America off."

A reduction in the immigrant inflow is entirely rational. As George Borjas has shown, the current crop of immigrants are MORE likely to receive government handouts than native-born Americans. As the 2000 election returns show, immigrants are MORE likely to vote for liberals than are native-born Americans. As the National Reserach Center showed in the 1990s, we DON'T need mass immigration for econcomic reasons. THE NRC estimated that the net benefit to the economy from mass immigration was on the order of 10 billion dollars, a paltry sum in our 8 trillion dollar economy. And this came at a cost--depressed wages for working class Americans.

As usual, Buchanan has facts on his side, and all the politically correct can do is whine and call him names.

... but it does bother me to see such ugly displays of hate masquerading as conservatism...."

All of us on this thread are pleased to see that you've examined your conscience. We admire your courage in typing this public confession of sin. We don't judge you too harshly for your hateful support of financial profit uber alles. Nor for your seething hatred of working class and middle class Native-born Americans and their aspirations. Nor for your, apparently, willful ingorance of the complex structures and rituals that must be defended from the destructive appetites of trans-national profiteers if any sort of social harmony is to be achieved.

That, of course, is the source of your hatred for Pat Buchanan, isn't it? It's not that he's a racist, it's that he's a culture warrior who is well aware of the fact that Western Culture rests upon the trinity of Christianity, Greco/Roman classicism and European paganism. THAT knowledge and his refusal to shut up about it is what you cannot forgive, isn't it?

However, as I said, in the spirit of the New Testament, I shall refrain from condemning you. But don't forget the part about going and sinning no more and all that stuff....

Charge admission. They can post a cash bond with a repsponsible gov entity ( interest bearing & fully refundable at a date certain ) on sliding scale based on education, job skills, etc. They use welfare, of any sort, they pay from the bond.

Having threads & comments removed, sans any explanation, is insidious. Makes one wonder what negative motivations may drive the forum. If this thing is supposed to be open, the frequent, secret police action is surely killing discussion. I'm happy to read & see when I or anyone inserts-foot-in-mouth-it is a cleansing experience. This rabid, paranoid fear of anything anyone calls racist, personal attacks, etc is PC trash, killing any chance of open discussion. Makes me wonder what this place is. It is repleat with people who are weak minded, unfreindly & scared to even see anything they deem BAD!! Abuse constitutes anything unpleasant. We ( our society ) & this board are subserviant to weaklings & PC trash.

Your #901 was a great post. I hope it doesn't disappear down the memory hole.

I'm late on the scene. If you have a copy of the great #901 post, can you send it to me? Since it got pulled, I'm assuming it was favorable toward Buchanan.

Worshipful Bushfan, MFN & criminal aliens may well be the final blow. The INS says that a very significant percentage of border crashing criminals are other than Mexican. You see, they even have a label for this catagory. MFN is a tool of the devil-when it links us to evil people ( & the past & current China gov's are evil ). Support for our nation's self-defense from terror has not altered these facts. Mr. Buchanan has caused great reaction from the weak-minded leftests & dupes of the the left who have been trained to attack us at every point.

Carved in the stone archway over the foyer of the Bush Library ( in College Station,Texas ) is the name of the Peoples Republic of China-a major contributor to the project.

Your vaunted Bush has conducted a very impolitic & politicaly adulterous affair ( at Crawford ) with Citizen Fox ( he of the land of infinite corruption, drugs & death.

What strange & awful company have both the new Renaldus Magnus & the former Pres. Bush been keeping! The former Bush fades from view & the Marlboro Man becomes our unquestioned, brave, new leader.

Abuse buttons are for gut-less fools who can't deal with anything they deem unpleasant. If a comment is bad it willbe obvious, unless some weakling ( coward ) is too afraid to read it. Reminds me of those who are just too squemish for the zoology lab.
