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

[FairOpinion]

Well, nobody can accuse Buchanan of not being conservative enough, and he is NOT against Lott at all, he sees it clearly what this attack really is. I hope other conservatives will listen to him.

Thank you for your support and your contribution, which shall be considered.

[FairOpinion]

Thank you. It's a privilege to post in this forum.

I just hope the Republicans realize soon, that just as the strategy of appeasement is a disaster in foreign policy, so it is at home too.

The Democrats are not any less ruthless than Saddam or Al Qaeda, they just use different methods to achive their goals, but they are not any less dangerous to our country.

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

Remember the communists invented the term "useful idiots" to denote the Western idealists, who, for their idealistic resons, allowed to be manipulated by the communists, never realizing it.

Trent Lott of Mississippi, declared: "I want to say this about my state. When Strom Thurmond ran for president, we voted for him. We're proud of it. And if the rest of the country had followed our lead, we wouldn't have had all these problems over these years, either."

The words were said in gracious tribute. But the malicious saw opportunity. Tom Edsall of the Washington Post dug up 54-year-old Thurmond quotes ("All the laws of Washington and all the bayonets of the Army cannot force the Negro into our homes, our schools, our churches"),

Well, of course he dug up those quotes, you moron! Isn't that what Lott was referring to?

"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.

Bill Kristol has to answer for his father before he expresses an opinion of his own? Well! That's fair. And let the record show that neither Kristol has exterminated any American Christians.

Someone previously pointed out that Pat is virtually alone among conservative pundits in defending Lott. I replied that says more about Pat than it says about conservatives.

Very good article.

Someone ought to write an article and dig out all the un-pc comments of those attacking Lott as has been done in this article.

If they want to play this racial division game - let them know that their words also count. Their actions of a prior time also can be used against them.

What a memory for Strom. His 100 year birthday celebration became a racial controversy and distroyed a man's career.

Thanks for posting this article I have seen him on T.V lately and Pat Buchanan seems to be the the only one who sees this as it is. Spot on !!!!!!

[The Great Satan]

What a memory for Strom. His 100 year birthday celebration became a racial controversy and distroyed a man's career.

Kind of like Paul Wellstone's memorial. God has a sense of humor, after all.

[Irish Eyes]

I have been thinking the same since this debacle started. The person to suffer most must be Storm Thurman, what horrible memories for what should have an enjoyable highlight of his life.

[William McKinley]

nobody can accuse Buchanan of not being conservative enough

Poor assumption. His backers and detractors sure seem to feel he is far right, but I have found some of his economic positions to be more in line with the left than the right.

"Oh, God," wailed William Kristol [JEW!] , whose old man, Irving [JEW!] , has not yet apologized for having been a Trotskyite

Well, don't you think that it is redundant? It will be quite normal that William Kristol if he is Jewish he has Jewish father, dont you think so?

Last night on Hannity & Colmes, Sean kept trying to point out some of these things. The female guest kept replying that she was asked to appear to talk about Lott, not about anyone else (e.g. dims). This is typical of dims - DON'T DO AS WE DO, DO AS WE SAY.

[republicanwizard]

Problem is: Trent Lott isn't half as bad as Pat Buchanan was. He used to feed Nixon a lot of this white racial superiority nonsense, and Nixon, being somewhat stupid, believed it all.

I've often found it interesting that Facists are referred to as the Far Right. In reality, the Nazis were National Socialists, so wouldn't that place Buchanan and his ilk at the extreme left?

[TwilightDog]

I believe he may be suggesting that Pat is a crypto-nazi. After a recent run-in with some neo-nazis on another message board, and with the web sites they referenced as a window into the mental world of their demented beliefs, I look at things differently. It really was the damnedest thing, and now I can see how paranoia about this sort of thing in general may be worth a second thought of consideration.

"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.

As I recall, Lenin (born Ulyanov) was a Christian and the "extermination" of the Russian bourgoisie did not proceed on relgious grounds -- both Christians and Jews were sent to the Gulag.

Pat just can't resist any opportunity to spew his anti-semitism. It's what he's best at.

I wanted to strangle that big mouthed witch! Arrggghhhh! You can't reason with democrats. It's a physical impossibility.
