You are ignorant on this account. Bitburg was Michael Deaver's deal. When the planning on Bitburg was initiated, Buchanan was not yet in the Reagan Administration but only a talking head for Father McLaughlin. Deaver was Ronald Reagan's master planner and PR Agent, not Buchanan. Get your facts straight.

Pat wrote the speach extolling the buried SS troops as ...victims just as surely as the victims in the concentration camps. When the expected uproar ensued, Pat's widely credited with complaining that we must not succumb to the Jewish pressure, reminding Jewish leaders they're "Americans first".

By not honoring the SS I'm not an American? Pat's a buffoon.

Sheesh! Like Pat wouldn't be involved in something like Bitburg.

Ah, but that river continues to run through Egypt apace.
