Buchanan was once an inspiration to me.
Now, he's just a bed sore that won't heal.
He's a nattering nabob of negativity, a naysayer and a boob without a rational comprehension of the world.
And, I do believe WFB was wrong, all those years ago, in his verbose conclusion that Buchanan is not an anti-Semite.
I'm very weary of all the poopy-heads whining that Bush lied because there are/were no WMD in Saddam's closet, only mass graves of murdered thousands.
It's like crying about the game when we've got the second half yet to play.
Buchanan's bitter world view is not mine.

How I loathe Buchanan. Loathe, loathe, loathe the man. When he is in the "conservative" seat on McLaughlin, I immediately change the channel, much as I have done for years whenever Slick Willy appears on my screen.
Not too many years ago, I gave Buchanan fair hearing. But after his asinine and disgraceful shenanigans of the last few years, and after getting a better insight into what really makes the guy tick, I cannot abide him for one second.

Based on his article, Buchanan might as well say that war with Germany was unnecessary too.

"good looks"? Pat may be many things but I never considered him to be handsome- not ugly- but not handsome. Or were you just being sarcastic?

Read the article. Pat didn't say Bush lied but rather he was lied too.

Pat Buchanan is a pathetic hate filled little man who has lost any credibility he might have had years ago. I wish he would just dry up and blow away

("4" more in "04")
To: BlueLancer
A more accurate reflection of Pat's view of WWII is in his book "A Republic, Not an Empire." His views are a little bit more nuanced than merely opposing our involvement in WWII. He was critical of how Roosevelt lied to the nation about our aid to Britain before the war. Further, he was critical of the policy of "unconditional surrender" that one could argue lead to thousands of unnecessary American casualties and untold millions of Jews, Poles, Russians, Gypsies, etc . . . in that Roosevelt refused to deal with the Wermacht general staff and their repeated overtures at peace if they got rid of Hitler.

I think 9-11 shows quite conclusively that in an age of assymetric weapons, the age of dictators must end.

To: Burkeman1
There is only one question. Where are the WMD? Wasn't that the WHOLE premise for going to war? So far we went to war on a false premise. (BTW I support the fact the we did it but if we don't take on Iran then I know it was fruitless)
Are you pubbies so far up your butts that you can't view this logically? We were duped unless we find these in the near future. We are absolutely duped by this & other administrations on the Chinese. They are the true enemy. Stop all trading with them asap - for our or our chldrens future.

Yes. I remember Clinton and the pesticides in Sudan as well. Read the article. Bush and company were talking about fully constituted WMD's as a direct threat to us. They are going to have to come up with more than pesticides that could be used in the production of chemical or bio weapons.
To: Digger
The major premise for war was WMD's. But Bush also cited "regime change" as another reason as well though I think that was more of a side benefit than an actual reason for war.
