Throwing stuff at people doesn't advance the dialog, doesn't help persuade anyone of anything except that the protester is a rude child.

I actually respect Buchanan because he doesn't accept the Neo-Con hardline - he goes where his own opinions lead him, wrongheaded though they may be. And he's no friend of the BFEE, which wins him at least a few Brownie points. He's one of the few conservatives that I'm willing to listen to, although I disagree with him about 90% of the time (the other 10% of the time, he's bashing the Bushes, the deficit, or the decision to go to war in Iraq). I understand the frustration of not being heard - liberal voices are more and more being shut out of debate - but Buchanan is no Bush, brooking no dissent.

But even if Buchanan was Tom DeLay, this is unacceptable behavior in what is arguably a civilized society.

And before someone else accuses me of it, I'll admit, I never liked the Three Stooges (lack of Y chromosome).
