Pat Buchanan, Fifth Columnist

World Net Daily ^ | February 10, 2006 | Benjamin Shapiro

[Thorin]

Shapiro is a little twit, trying to attract attention to himself by attacking a well-known figure.

If he really is so worried about "appeasement," he should enlist.

[ozoneliar]

He sure cuts the line thin. Once he came out to impeach President Bush, I don't listen to him in print or TV.

I didn't hear that(doesn't mean much), but that being the case why does Pat have his supporters on this forum?

[Luis Gonzalez]

You attack the individual and not the message...the Jew-hating thing is not a Pat exclusive, is it?

>>>>>>You attack the individual and not the message...the Jew-hating thing is not a Pat exclusive, is it?

I think that Shapiro is a twit. I didn't say he was a twit because he's Jewish.

The illogic thing is not a Shapiro exclusive, is it?

Despising Jews is the oldest prejudice in the history of mankind, save the one about men who think women are good for nothing but making babies and mopping floors.

Conspiratorial minds look for something or somebody to blame for things that go wrong in the world or in their lives. And the Jews, since they "killed Christ" are a convenient scapegoat.

Surely you've noticed that FR is full of people with a conspiratorial mindset. If you haven't, you will.

I was actually referring to Pat's call for impeachment.

[warsaw44]

for later reading.

I heard him on Howie Carr's radio program saying we should have let Hitler and Stalin go at each other until both were wiped out. In the mean time Pat, what the hell would have happened to the rest of Poland and the other ' undesirables ' in the East.
Every time the Nazis took a region they'd kill or enslave countless numbers of people. The Communists would take a region back and then it was their turn for mayhem and murder.

[Revenge of Sith]

"is there evidence that he actually hates Jews?"

He has opposed every prosecution of a Nazi war criminal and once wrote that there were no gas chambers in Treblinka.

[sinkspur]

The writing style has a nice cadence to it.

He's sure got Buchanan pegged:

The same folks who despise America's interventionism on behalf of freedom in the Middle East would have let Britain fall to Hitler and the chimneys of Auschwitz spew forth the ashes of every last Jew.

[veronica]

Do you know that Pat actually lost a relative at a Nazi death camp?

The poor schmuck fell out of a guard tower...

"Who has done more to empower Islamic radicals than Bush with his clamor for elections across a region radicalized by our own policies?"

Muslims themselves, that's who, Uncle Paddy.

Sorry about that.

Pat's oddball pronouncements extend to one that most everybody has forgotten about.

In August of 1998, after Ken Starr had subpoenaed Clinton to appear before the Grand Jury, Pat came out and said that he would support Clinton refusing to honor Starr's subpoena, even if the Supreme Court ordered him to honor it.

[Luis Gonzalez]

That's right, and Pat calling the U.S. Congress "Israeli occupied territory", attacking Kurt Waldheim during his tenure, then doing a 180 degree turn once his Nazi past was revealed to defend him, picking Louis Farrakhan supporter Fulani as a running mate is not the topic here, the topic is what you think of the guy exposing Pat for what he is.

/sarcasm

[Luis Gonzalez]

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

[Pompah]

Ditto. The truth is, Ol'Pat's time has come and gone.
End of story.

[WestVirginiaRebel]

Patty was born too late to support Hitler, so he's using radical Islam instead.

[Luis Gonzalez]

"Surely you've noticed that FR is full of people with a conspiratorial mindset."

Get out of town!

Really?

[untenured]

Understandably, the Israelis are close to hysterical over the landslide for Hamas and are on a diplomatic campaign to have all donors end all aid to a Palestinian Authority dominated by Hamas. But that is not in our interests.

Does Mr. Buchanan generally oppose foreign aid? If so, this is an interesting and no doubt highly principled exception.

> As far as I know, Pat has said he was anti-zionist, but not anti-semetic.

A distinction without a difference. If you haven't seen his anti-semitism, you have not been reading him. If you have and still believe that, you are also anti-semite. Yes, I know you don't believe it, but you are known by your actions, not your words.
