Patrick J. Buchanan : The Two Faces of Maj. Hasan

Thu, 12 Nov 2009 02:39:45 +0000

It is clearly obvious that he declared war on the U.S. Let's stop the PC and tell it like it is. How many more of these Jihadists are walking amongst ourselves? This country needs to get a lot tougher on these "religious clerics" that shout hate outside their places of worship but refuse to admit they promote war with "the infidels" . They will stop acting out, when we act out upon them. Hate crimes and the like is a two way street.

Patrick J. Buchanan : Former UK Ambassador: CIA Sent People To Be ‘Raped With Broken Bottles’

Torture like this is absolutely abominable and unreal. Governments will go to any end to satisfy their greed and power. A friend of mine had an Uzbekistan exchange student for a summer about 10 years ago. The young man didn't want to leave to go back to his homeland after staying here for a short time but he had no choice. He managed to return three years later and proceeded to become a citizen. His family is still in Uzbekistan. He was one lucky guy.

Patrick J. Buchanan : How Goldman Secretly Bet on the U.S. Housing Crash

Tue, 3 Nov 2009 15:04:35 +0000

Only the best educated and brightest money managers could concoct a scheme like this that could break down the financial structure of America and the world and pay themselves huge bonuses as they repeatedly stabbed investors and organizations with ordinary people trusting their retirement portfolios to them. It’s always the loopholes that permit these corrupt actions and the government laxity in oversight and regulations is just as much at fault for this debacle…these two entities (Wall St. and The Gov) will continue to blame each other and make their excuses and confessions to the public with probably nothing more than a token few being carted off to jail and the rest a hand slap and an insincere promise to right their wrongs while the masses muddle through the greatest financial disaster since the Great Depression.

Patrick J. Buchanan : Daily Show Under Fire for Covering Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 15:54:42 +0000

I seldom watch his show but when I do, I think he is very funny. Good for him for allowing this issue to come to light. Yes, the Jewish (Zionist) influence is extremely strong and it has become almost sacriligious to utter a word that could in any way be interpreted as a jab at Israel. We need more serious discussions on this in the media. How can you solve problems without talking about them openly and honestly? As a comedian, I give him credit as "many a truth is said in jest."

Linda, I again want to thank you for such a great website. As you know a "forum" section was used quite a bit in the past with various posters on many different topics of interest. I know you are attempting to get one started again but the costs are expensive. For all those loyal Pat Buchanan fans especially who are reading Pat's columns and enjoying other informative topics, I ask that you send even a small donation to Linda Muller so she will be able to effect a new forum and we can really get into some serious talks about the events of today.__It won't take much to get the forum going again but we need your help. I have already made a contribution to help her out. Please click on "Keep Us Online" section.....left side under navigation and help. Thanks.

"Too many "CROOKS" spoiled the broth!!! " or "One man's porridge (their gains) is another man's poison." (our losses) In this case, they have been feeding us this toxicity for years. We're all goners.

Patrick J. Buchanan : Nixon and Obama—Soul Brothers?

Sat, 24 Oct 2009 18:47:52 +0000

It just proves that Hillary Clinton was absolutely correct in the primaries when she said to the effect that all Obama could offer was a speech he made in 2002.. He is still in campaign mode and farms out the work to his cabinet and staff. Aside from attacking Fox News for bringing out the truth, it's all one big party for him. He's a big zero when the country needs 100% leadership. The current path of this administration is one that will turn this country upside down. It's a cake walk for him and we are ones walking on a tight rope.

Patrick J. Buchanan : Alienated & Radicalized

Tue, 20 Oct 2009 13:52:32 +0000

Pat, what a sad epitaph for our nation. When I read this column my heart sank. I ask, how did the American people ever let this get out of control and why did the leaders of this country allow it to happen? Over the years, many of us put our faith and trust into our government because we were hard at work with raising families, making a livable income and dealing with normal everyday occurances in our lives. We left it to the pro's. Now, anger and frustration are eating up our lives over the many ill's this country faces. The psychology of " flight or fight" has crept into our minds and spirit. It reminds me of the words of Shakespeare in Hamlet. "Whether it is nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune or to take arms against a sea of troubles and by opposing, end them". The answer is clear. Many Americans are in for a good fight....peaceful, I hope and pray....but the battle must now be fought.

Patrick J. Buchanan : Unemployment: Now That's Sustainable!

Tue, 20 Oct 2009 12:40:38 +0000

Excellent column. It's very disheartening that probably only 25% of the nation has a grasp of what has been going on over the years and actively concerns themselves with policies implemented and pending. The working age group between 50 and 65 is going to suffer the most as their financial obligations have already been set with current mortgage payments, college expenses for their children and the like. The jobs they had are gone. They are much older now. They can be retrained for what?? The jobs of the future?? are still in the future. Back in the days when these trade agreements were signed into law, I'd like to think it was possible that our leaders did feel that it was good for America and there was enough prosperity to share with our poorer neighbors. They lacked foresight and then acted with wild abandon to allow these many companies to set up jobs overseas. For every job sent out of the country they should have insured an equal or better replacement job for the workers. These safeguards were never put in place. ____And yes, we all need to be Americans first.....and do something about it. I believe we are ready and willing.______________

Patrick J. Buchanan : Three Heroes of 9/11 Die of Cancer in Five Days

Somebody had to clean up the mess and it looks like America's finest were expendable. How could anyone make a statement assuring the rescue workers that all was safe? These people deserve compensation for serious health conditions that developed. Let's not treat them the way we initially treated the vets with "Gulf War" syndrome.

Patrick J. Buchanan : The Second Battle of Copenhagen

Fri, 16 Oct 2009 14:09:12 +0000

Even Al Gore must be befuddled at this point??? These are natural cycles of the earth. Approximately three years ago, the state of Georgia was nearing a crisis for lack of rain. The lakes supplying the Atlanta metro area were drying up and extreme water control was required of the population. The situation was so desperate that the Governor held a public prayer meeting to pray for rain. Within the past 9 months, the same area received an abundance of rain and now the lakes are at or above proper levels. It all averages out over time.

Patrick J. Buchanan : Hire Americans First

Wed, 14 Oct 2009 00:18:37 +0000

The Atlanta Journal assigned most of their job listings to an outside internet employment center about 9 months ago,. Prior to that time period just about every other newspaper employment ad for administrative positions had the words "must speak spanish or must be bi-lingual". It was amazing that these companies expected Americans to learn another language in order to get an office position which they held for many years before this "requirement" took place. So they are sending our jobs overseas and were requring workers here to master a new language? Unreal!

Patrick J. Buchanan : Bitter Fruits of Mideast Wars

Shadow92,.... I agree. Afghanistan is a lost cause. As far as Iran, the people are already in "overthrow" mode. More sanctions could tip the scales for all out , serious revolution this time.

Patrick J. Buchanan : Gore Vidal: ‘We’ll Have a Dictatorship Soon in the US’

Sat, 3 Oct 2009 01:08:46 +0000

Interesting interview and his assessments on a number of things are true. On Hillary Clinton, yes, she would have been far superior to Obama. I believe his opinion on conservatives is out of line and based on a small minority in the party. Will the Republicans win in 2012? I hope not. How about a strong third party candidate to take the country into "another" new direction..... one that works. Timothy McVeigh.........a mass murderer none the less.

Patrick J. Buchanan : U.S. To Break Up Soon?

Wed, 30 Sep 2009 13:18:50 +0000

I'm not so confident that Comrade "Pandemonium" is correct. There is no question that there has been decay and the U.S. is in a free fall of sorts. This break up sounds a little fantastic. However, people taking sides on certain critical issues is happening and there is much unrest. Somethings got to give, but I doubt the Comrade's predictions will come true. If the Russians try and claim Alaska again, I'm sure Sarah Palin will put up a dang good fight! You betcha!

Sounds to me like you are just as cynical as you say Carlin was. I agree about the drugs though. I haven't seen all of his videos... "work ethics"? .so I can't comment further. Funny Andrea, some of your comments on this article makes me think that you could be "the pot calling the kettle black". <DIV style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 6px 0px 0px"><A class=a2a_dd href="http://www.addtoany.com/share_save" a2a_index="5"><IMG style="BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px" height=16 alt=Share/Save/Bookmark src="http://static.addtoany.com/buttons/share_save_171_16.png" width=171 border=0>

Here is a very short video, made late in his life, which IMO nails it regarding the question of who really owns America. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYIC0eZYEtI&NR...

I really miss this guy. He was rough around the edges and brutally honest in his performances regarding just about anything and mostly cultural/politcal events. He had wisdom and excellent insight. I need to google some of his videos and relive his wild antics and hysterical humor. Here is a funny quote...... "One out of every three Americans is suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of two of your best friends. If they are OK, then it must be you."

Patrick J. Buchanan : Blame Republicans for Big Government

Fri, 25 Sep 2009 12:55:14 +0000

Second part of previous comment. Here is an excerpt from Clinton’s speech re: NAFTA in 1993. “Many Americans are still worried that this agreement will move jobs south of the border because they've seen jobs move south of the border and because they know that there are still great differences in the wage rates. There have been 19 serious economic studies of NAFTA by liberals and conservatives alike; 18 of them have concluded that there will be no job loss. “ Note the last sentence. These people were obviously not visionaries. From Sept. 14, 1993 speech. http://www.historycentral.com/Documents/Clinton/S...
