Buchanan's meltdown this afternoon is the coda to his 1992 GOP convention speech.
And I think it's a direct reaction to his realization that a black man is on the verge of winning the most powerful office in the nation.

What a nasty, racist fuck he is.

3. Pat and his brothers used to beat up Jewish kids going home from school
... And his Dad got them all boxing lessons too. He has always
been a nasty shit.

But a bad knee kept him out of Vietnam although he was quite
the jogger in the late 60s and through the 70s.

10. Buchanan's father was a total bigot and a big fan of Father Coughlin, a
bigoted racist fascist sympathizer who had a radio show back in the 30s and 40s. Buchanan's dad was so turned on by
Coughlin he had his whole family convert to Catholicism. Pat and his siblings were raised in hate from the get go.

19. Figures ... he tries to keep it down but hate seems to drip from him.
I remember him going all pissed off about "the liberal wing of the
republican party ... the Nelson Rockefeller repubs" he called them

He did this about 20 years after Rocky died ... he couldn't let it
go.

An Obama Presidency would make him have a stroke.

6. Frothing-at-the-mouth meltdown.
It's us vs. them! Hillary is us! Obama is "them!" Included some bizarre rant about LBJ's hippies and Nixon.

He reminds me of one of those movie villains who goes down in a froth of rage just as he realizes he's been bested by the hero.

7. Why is this racist fucktard
still on the air?

Seriously, this man has shown himself to be a racist asshat for years yet he's treated on these shows like a respectable human being. Why is that?

Can anyone seriously read that essay of his on how slavery was beneficial to black people and think he has any business being treated as though he were a respectable pundit (a term I'm starting to consider an oxymoron) with a legitimate point of view?

Someone needs to yank his ass of the air.

Regards

8. Obama still has a way to go be on the verge of the White House.
Edited on Wed May-14-08 06:45 PM by Carrieyazel
We've got a long time yet and Obama is no closer than Dukakis, Dole or Kerry were.

21. One of These Things Is Not Like the Other . . . .
"Dukakis, Dole or Kerry" or Obama

The first three had almost no charisma, and when not actually smiling, had very dour visages.

Obama has energy and charisma as well as the intelligence and moral authority of Dukakis and Kerry.

13. Could be MSNBC will dump the fucker on the side of the road
someplace and he can pretend to speak for the idiots in ultra right wing Radio or some shit.

Maybe Coultergiest and he can get together and make a porno film.

Or maybe he can just go fuck himself.

If I saw someone kicking his ass on the street, I'd testify that Pat started it.

15. Babbling about Viet Nam and nixon.......
Andrea Mitchell trying to gently tell him times have changed. Phrases like "us and them" referring to aa and whites. Totally disconnected from the real world and the 21st century.
Time for the hook..
