What stinks about Washington (Buchanan's view about the Lott fiasco)

Lenin was 'a Christian'? What's next? Satan as a devout Catholic? Hitler the Quaker?

[John Lenin]

I think Free Republic will turn into a RAT stronghold before this Lott issue is solved. Seems like everone here is siding with Jesse Jackson, Maxine Waters and the whole black/progressive caucus. Unbelieveable !

[A Vast RightWing Conspirator]

It's the gutless quality of the new neocon moral values (or rather lack of). Given that their only goal is 'staying in power' - as translated in 'seats' in the 2 legislative chambers and control of the White House, they would sacrifice just about everything to the above. 'About everything' includes but it is not limited to their core principles and/or any (or many) of their own if such sacrifice is part of some formula that keeps them 'in power'. Even if staying in power really means implementing their "enemy's" agenda, which seems to be the case lately.

I know quite a bit about communism and communists and the Democrats are different from them in name only. But have the same propaganda, underhanded methods, manipulations down pat.

I agree. There are conservatives and commies, in my book. Those are the sides of this war.

[John Lenin]

What it is really about is the ethnic/race card being played without having consequences when the slur is wrong..

It will be quite normal that William Kristol if he is Jewish he has Jewish father, dont you think so?

Socialist Jews will sacrifice Zionist Jews for their own political power. In my book, the Zionists are Jews and the Socialists... of any ilk... are socialists. Thus, Jew does not equal Marxist.

Can you show me a quote, or a story, Pat has written that shows his bigotry? Were you there, when he fed Nixon bigoted lines? What book or article, can you cite as proof of Buchanans hatred of blacks or jews?"

BillyBoy: "Then racists like you decided to rewrite history and promote garbage like that. "

Isn't it interesting that now, simply refusing to make racial issues your top priority is "racist"?

I don't know about FR becoming a "RAT stronghold," but as long as the Republicans keep singing the tune the Democrats tell them to sing, you can count them as being among the choir.

This entire incident serves to show the scant difference between the two parties, although Republicans will deny it.

[bimbo]

I hope other conservatives will listen to him.

I agree ... but sadly, on FreeREpublic the name of Buchanan elicits a very wide stream of ad hominem attacks.

[Just mythoughts]

Please document Lenin a 'Christian'.

There is no way Lenin could be in any way shape or form be called a Christian. Christians were hated by Lenin.

Please, Christians have committed plenty of sins but being in with Lenin is an outrage. Remember Lenin and his buddies removed God from their society, much like his modern day followers are trying to do to this country. Didn't Marx/Lenin start on college campus in France and in England? I do not believe Hitler would ever had the opportunity to become a dictator if it had not been for what Lenin and his evil friends cooked up in the late 1800's.

We stopped Hitler but tried to be friends with the Communists, and yet Communism is responsible for many for deaths and destruction the world over and in this country it had a strong foothold on so many. There is nothing Christian about Communism.

[A Vast RightWing Conspirator]

My reaction to the current Lott mob scene. Or is it, like a current SCOTUS Justice used to say, a 'high tech lynching'?

[A Vast RightWing Conspirator]

What he meant to say was that Lenin, in his youth, attended a Christian seminary. And so did Stalin. This does not make then Christians any more than Hitler's being born in a Christain family makes him one.

[JohnGalt]

You are calling me a racist?

The liberals taught you well; you see the world through Marxist eye glasses, black and white, and like a good leftist, don't even understand the concept of unintended consquences.

Socialism light is still socialism but then I guess moderates like you are the reason we are in this mess. Look at Dewey's record in New York; he was not a Conservative but a dangerous socialist like the racist Truman (incidentally, Truman was a brief member of the KKK and was part of an adminstration that locked up American citizens based on their race-- are Dem voters from 1948 autmatically racist then?)

The States Rights Party was the only vehicle available for a true Conservative victory in 1948. Sadly, as the South had done in 1861, there pecuilar desire to hold on to government sanctioned racism, prevented them from creating a national following and a true alternative to Socialist Party A or Socialist Party B.

Ann Rayd

Ayn Rand I think is what you were trying for, but like a good Marxist neo-con, you trash the author of one of the great hero/anti-hero characters of 20th Century Literature.

[JohnGalt]

He learned the trick from leftists who call anyone who does not make homosexual issues a top priority a homophobe.

As the old saying goes, it's impossible to be both politically correct and intellectually honest.

[L.N. Smithee]

Hey, if the 'victims' of whatever want to stay victims for the rest of their vicitimized lives and for many generations to come, nothing can stop them and no one but a psychiatrist could even begin to try to help them.

What are you talking about? This has nothing to do with what either Pat Buchanan or I have written.

Do you have a point?

[deport]

"Oh, God," wailed William Kristol, whose old man, Irving, has not yet apologized for having been a Trotskyite two decades after Lenin and Trotsky began the extermination of Russian Christians.

A thousand cuts and only a few more to go..... then the changing of the gaurd can take place and the band can play the tunes why the GOP dances to their calls.

[Miss Marple]

I still think Kristol is egging this on. It was a bad faux pas, and Lott should have apologized, but Buchanan has a good point with this (and you know I don't give him mucuh credit most of the time).
