Do you HEAR Uncle Pat right now?

[Clio the Leo]

Saying that we need to get past all of this partisan BS and that "there was more democracy in that speech today than in all of this talk of wanting to spread freedom around the world!"

It's the end of times I tell you!

Will he run again as a Democrat? :)

[IndianaJones]

1. he'd win down south...or in WV. nt

[DCBob]

2. Pat has a "good" side that comes out once in awhile.

Not often enough though.

3. I think it was in response to

evan thomas sayin "The speech wasn't memorable, but Aretha Franklin was." Uh, bet it was memorable to the people who were there, asshole. What were they expecting? And meanwhile, Reagan's retarded "Government IS the problem line" gets repeated endlessly. Anyway, Pat seemed to admire Obama's speech earlier, so I think he wanted to defend it a litt.e

4. Yep end of times for Pat is a good summation.

Just 3 months ago he liked the Maverick from Alaska. I wonder what is really going on in his 16th century mind?

[anonymous171]

5. Wait until he starts ranting about "homosexuals and blacks"

He's good on foreign policy. That's about it.

[camera obscura]

6. He also had some sort of weird compliment about the Obama kids, it was sweet in a Buchanan way

[Flying Dream Blues]

9. He said something to the effect they were poised and a good reflection on their parents

[tledford]

12. Thank God he didn't say anything about "picaninnies."

Corrected for spelling, I was a little rusty on my racial stereotypes.

[sfpcjock]

7. I was IMPRESSED!

Sometimes Uncle Pat is good and experiential.

[Iterate]

8. You never know with him.

I don't like listening to him for that reason alone. Sometimes he's the reasonable historian, sometimes the talking points parrot, and sometimes he just has to scratch that dark itch and the Bavarian Catholic fascist appears.

10. I know, it was surreal. There is hope! nt

[Dappleganger]

11. Crazy Uncle Pat

has been hitting the bottle again.

[Born_A_Truman]

13. I missed it.

Wonder what his evil sister has to say.

[jazzjunkysue]

14. Pat and Tweety will ride the coattails du jour, regardless of the message

or result.

They're both media whores, par none.

I don't miss MSNBC anymore. I don't need it anymore. Barack's in charge.

15. According to Uncle Pat, today's stock market decline was a direct response to Obama's speech.

And, that the stock market is *THE* predictor of the State of the US Economy.

:eyes:

I was wondering where the "real" Pat was hiding.

He's baaaaaaack.

[mtnsnake]

16. Pat might have a few skeletons in the past but quite often he makes lots of sense nowadays

and can be pretty refreshing at times.

[marimour]

18. i agree

I surprisingly didn't hate him in '08. He was pretty good on the McLaughlin group.

[stillcool]

17. I so wish they'd put him out to pasture..

I guess he needs the bucks. He must have shot his wad in his Presidential election bid.
