Featured right now on Pat Buchanan's Website is an article that begins: OCCUPIED JERUSALEM – A Jewish rabbi has issued a book giving Jews permission to murder non-Jews, including babies and children, who may pose an actual or potential threat to Jews or Israel. “It is permissible to kill the Righteous among non-Jews even if they are not responsible for the threatening situation,”...
All through history, anti-Semitism has been a mainstay of right-wing extremism-- and not just in overseas manifestations from the Babylonian Captivity, the blood libels, the Crusades and the Spanish Inquisition to pogroms throughout Europe and the Nazis' systematic Holocaust-- but also right here in America, where the KKK, Henry Ford's Dearborn Independent , Father Coughlin (the Rush Limbaugh of the...
"Long before I supported Ron Paul for president and in general, I was a staunch Pat Buchanan conservative," begins Jack Hunter in his essay pondering "whether right-wingers could make more progress by focusing on cultural issues like illegal immigration, multiculturalism and affirmative action or libertarian issues like government size, spending and perhaps, civil liberties" —...
The one true constant of the left's war on America is that they accuse the individual of what they are guilty of. Projection. They project, accuse their target of their tactic. Such it is with StoptheWitchHunt.org. They are on a witch hunt, calling every voice that doesn't stomp in goosestep with them a white supremacist, a Nazi, a racist, a hater, blech blech blech. It's what they do. This is a direct...
A new left-wing organization created specifically to attack Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Lou Dobbs, Pat Buchanan, and Paul Brown has ties to ex-Obama green jobs czar Van Jones. As NewsBusters reported Thursday, StopTheWitchHunt.org was formed to " call out " what it considers " mischaracterizations and hate speech " by the aforementioned quintet. With the assistance of tipster Bret...
As always, spot on . The same could be said of Beck, Palin and their acolytes. Though they constantly liken the president to various totalitarian dictators, it is they who are re-enacting Stalinism in full purge mode. They drove out Arlen Specter, and now want to “melt Snowe” (as the blog Red State put it). The same Republicans who once deplored Democrats for refusing to let an anti-abortion...
Glenn Reynolds: Washington Republicans need to recognize that their constituencies outside the Beltway have been unhappy with them for years, and they need to change their ways to re-establish trust. Ultimately, it's not enough to say that the Democrats are worse. They have to stand for something besides a simple return to power. As long as Pat Buchanan, Tom Delay, Ron Paul and New Gingrich keep appearing...
STIMULATING.... On MSNBC this morning, Joe Scarborough (conservative Republican) and Pat Buchanan (conservative Republican) were discussing the recent reports on economic growth. Scarborough conceded it may have been the result of "the federal money that's gotten in there." Buchanan was...
A very interesting poll from Pew Research on the Village TV media shows a couple of notable points: The Fox News Channel is viewed by Americans in more ideological terms than other television news networks. And while the public is evenly divided in its view of hosts of cable news programs having strong political opinions, more Fox News viewers see this as a good thing than as a bad thing. Nearly half...
I can't say I saw this one coming. It seems that George Pataki has decided to embrace his the wingnuts and make common cause with the likes of Sarah Palin, Jim DeMint, Michelle Bachman, Pat Buchanan, Michelle Malkin and Tony Perkins by endorsing Con candidate and teabagger darling Doug Hoffman . As someone personally engaged in the way of life in the Adirondacks and Northern New York, I'm deeply concerned...
A new coalition was launched Thursday to specifically target conservatives Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Lou Dobbs, Pat Buchanan, and Paul Brown. Called StopTheWitchHunt.org , their goal is " to give voice to the millions of Americans who believe it is time for talk-show hosts and elected officials to stop stoking the racial anxieties of the fringes of America ." They accuse the quintet of...
A look at a man who "was the spiritual godfather of the Ron Paul movement, as well as instrumental in bringing about the paleoconservative/paleolibertarian coalition that supported Pat Buchanan in the 1990s," and "lifelong interest in practical politics" — Anarchist's Playbook .

The Daily Loaf: The new threat to party politics As President Obama’s approval rating continues to slip, it is clear that he will face a much tougher race for re-election in 2012 than he ran last year. It’s like an overdue pregnancy; it’s been nine months, but he has yet to deliver. The markets are still fragile, and the dollar is going down while unemployment numbers are going up....
From today's Washington Post online Q&A with Howard Kurtz : Bluffton, SC: In your blog on Friday you wrote this referring to MSNBC and its liberal hosts: "though that channel does give Joe Scarborough three hours a day, while no liberal has a show on Fox News." Although Joe considers himself a conservative the majority of the guests (not to mention his co-host) are decidedly liberal....
By GottaLaff My very caring, impassioned 72-year-old Twitter pal, who goes by the name 42bkdodgr , would like to share his feelings about one of our posts a few days ago of Pat Buchanan's feelings on "traditional Americans". I am more than happy to oblige. But first, a personal note from 42bkdodgr: Many of you may wonder why I chose to use the “ 72 year old friend” as the introduction...
