The neocons' Palin project
SF Chronicle ^ | Patrick J. Buchanan

Posted on 09/15/2008 9:50:56 PM PDT by Chet 99

The neocons' Palin project

Patrick J. Buchanan, Creators Syndicate, Inc.

Monday, September 15, 2008

Will the neocons who tutored President Bush in the ideology he pursued to the ruin of his presidency do the same for GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin?

Should they succeed, they will destroy her. Yet, they are moving even now to capture this princess of the right and hope of the party.

In St. Paul, Palin was told to cancel a meeting with Phyllis Schlafly and pro-life conservatives. McCain's operatives said Palin had to rest for her Wednesday convention speech.

Yet, on Tuesday, Palin was behind closed doors with Joe Lieberman and officials of the Israeli lobby AIPAC. There, according to the Washington Post, Palin took and passed her oral exams.

Every time I read a Pat Buchanan piece, I narrate it inside my head in his scratchy wheezy old curmudgeon voice.

I usually get a little more than halfway through before I stop paying attention to myself.

Knock it you SOB Pat! What you really mean is the Jews!

’ But make no mistake. Sarah Palin is no neocon. She did not come by her beliefs by studying Leo Strauss. She is a traditionalist whose values are those of family, faith, community and country, not some utopian ideology.

Wasilla, Alaska, is not a natural habitat of neoconservatives.’

Neocons are not Jews. Neocons are people who support preemptive wars and are liberal on domestic issues. People like Rudy Giuliani and Ed Koch.

From what I’ve seen so far, Governor Palin does not play well with the good old boys.

‘Palin may disappoint many conservatives in the next seven weeks by having to parrot the McCain-neocon line on NATO expansion, NAFTA and a “path to citizenship” for illegal aliens. But the battle for Palin’s soul is not over.’

“Palin also volunteered that the Russian invasion was “unprovoked,” though Georgia attacked South Ossetia first.”

Pat is a Democrat. He favors:

1. higher taxes

2. restrictions on freedom

Those are core Democrat values.

Okay, I gave up on Pat when he left the GOP to pretend to be an Independent (because he did not do well in the GOP).

But on the other hand Phyllis Schlafly has always been my favorite cold Yankee lady. She wrote a little book about Prez Ford being manipulated by the same type of “sophistos” in AMBUSH AT VLADIVOSTOK. Now it does really look like the lib wing of the GOP is trying to sequester our Sarah.

The excerpt was as much as I could read. I used to really admire Buchanan, but he’s just become a miserable wretch since he lost that IA straw poll a few years back. And he can barely contain ...hell, he doens’t contain .. his anti-semitism.

This thread shouldn't be about PJB, but Gov. Palin.

But, I'll take your bait. If Pat is a Dem, then Pres. Bush is a Socialist.

Open borders, Billions for AIDS to Africa, Financial Bailouts, etc.

Recently I noticed that when Pat Buchanan is on some panel on TV, I actually look forward to hearing what he has to say more than the other panelists. I was trying to figure out why this is and I realized that part of the reason is that I like Pat Buchanan's voice.

WHat a frickin insult. As if Bush was brainwashed to be who he is. And as if Palin will get the same treatment. ANyone who doesn’t subscribe to Buchanan’s limp wristed foreign policy is a neocon? What rubbish.

Folks, you can put your head in the sand but it’s obvious she’s only hearing the neoconservative side... and that is mainly a problem because it seems so obvious. She needs to be exposed to other views...

Considering that article came out of SF, it sounds like a crock...

Nobody but Sarah Palin owns her soul...She is bright and quick enough to be a team player but also she knows how to do the right thing..Don’t get in a dither- remember the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world...and Sarah can Rock..

What makes you think that Sarah Palin doesn't already know the Pat Buchanan head-in-the-sand point of view?

The nature of your post reminds me of Charlie Palin-needs-to-learn-a-few-things Gibson.

Three times she said that, should Israel decide to attack Iran, the United States should not "second guess" Israel's decision or interfere. This contradicts U.S. policy.
Good. We want change from 12 years of Bush/Baker; W Bush/Powell/Rice.

No.

What he says is basically correct. Except Palin indicates that Israel should do it not us. Shows she and probably w have not bought into neocon thinking, if in fact they are as Pat says .

Where's your finger?

It's a codeword people like Buchanan use for Jews.

Alaska is a well-known neo-con stronghold. Pat's really onto a profound insight again. //Sarcasm off.

If Pat has a headache, he blames the pernicious neo-cons. He's a monomaniac on the subject or neo-cons.

Only a hit piece on Governor Palin could get the Chronicle to print an op-ed by a raving anti-Semite like Pat Buchanan.

Sure Pat, it's all the Jooze. They're skeemin' to take over the world.
