Wish she'd get rid of that racist creep ~ I love Rachel, but turn the show off when Pat comes on.

1. Yes. I don't know why he needs yet another megaphone to spread his hate.

2. Who better to wipe the floor with?
Rachel destroys Buchanan time after time because she has the facts and I love it. He's little more than a dupe for her to use.

3. Uncle Pat has to GO AWAY!
He has nothing to say, nothing to add and all he sews are lies. GO AWAY PAT!

5. She uses him to magnify her view, as Pat looks goofy
and she is clear and accurate.

6. Yep, he does one hell of an impression of McLame, though ...
... blathering, talking nonsense, yelling over the other commentators ... I keep waiting for him to yell "Where's my damned Prune Juice?"


:rofl: Evil Old fart.

7. Yes...
I always have to turn my television set down when he starts up. Why does he always have to yell when talking??

9. The show was so refreshing, but now...
it's like Fox News is on in my living room when these right-wingers make "guest" appearances. I hate it!

I don't watch Fox for a reason -- so I am so offended when they screech and holler on Rachel's show.

Ugh.

It's just awful -- like when Jon Stewart is all conciliatory with John McCain or Peggy Noonan, etc. <gag!>

10. Yep, I always tune out when he's on. On the plus side,
it gives me a chance to clean up the kitchen.

12. Don't think of Pat as a racist or a demon ..... think of him as her political straight man
His role is to set up some right wing meme that she can knock down.

Also, take note of the vibe you get while watching her debate him. There's no animosity whatsoever. He is clear who he is and clear on what he thinks. As is she. Once you get apst that, they actually seem to enjoy sparring and actually do it with some personal respect.

Don't forget, by Rachel's own account, it was none other than Pat who awakened her to the reality of being gay in America and how half the country wished her ill simply for her sexual orientation.

They are two clear eyed people who have become unlikely but effective serial debaters.

13. NO. I think it's refreshing that two people could disagree about everything, but maintain respect
and even affection for each other.

We all need to know when to argue about issues but leave personalities out of it. It's a good reminder of that.

14. I know this will sound weird
But I sort of enjoy it. He's usually this crazy old coot but for some reason I kind of enjoy their exchanges. Mostly because Rachel always gets the last word and it's fun as hell to see her do that, and also because he seems to have a shred of a sense of humor about it. Unlike most other right winger he was a good sport with Ali G, when he was asked if we should go into Iraq to find the missing BLT's he just kept laughind. So I don't totally mind him.

Now his sister Bay, that's another question. She has ZERO redeeming qualities.

16. I enjoy counting the wrinkles in his forehead and the number of times he chops the air with his hand
He keeps setting new records for both.

19. I would too.... Pat on next....
I would too.... the other ones fool the masses on where they stand with
their bullshit stances on things. When they are all racists assholes, Pat, doesn't fool anyone.

25. Great analogy!
Juneau Pat? (I can't think of an Alaskan city that begins with P).

Nome but Alaska.

22. Actually, he's become amusing.
He's practically hysterical at this very moment. I am laughing out loud at him. Plus, Rachel has such fun tormenting him!

having such a vile human being.

29. I switch to CNN whenever he comes on.
The Maddow show risks losing viewers if folks don't switch back when 'Uncle Pat' is off.

If I never have to hear his 14-year-old boy's voice again, it will be too soon.
