Did any one just hear Pat Buchanan on Keith Olbermann?

[Poiuyt]

He said that he wouldn't run as a conservative fourth party candidate because he didn't want to be a fugitive for the rest of his life. He was joking, of course, but it shows what he thinks of the bush family.

[bobbieinok]

1. wow!!!!!!

...

[nannygoat]

2. Yeah, I caught that, too. Did you notice the new meme?

Kerry has supported *'s positions on Iraq, the Patriot Act, No Child Left Behind, blah, blah, blah...

[sendero]

5. Well....

... this was entirely predictable, and true as well, and my main problem with Kerry. I hope he has worked up a good response, because they are going to hammer this one at every opportunity.

6. Except

"Kerry has supported *'s positions on Iraq, the Patriot Act, No Child Left Behind, blah, blah, blah.."


Except Lurch did exactly that.
Remember the majority of Democratic politicians voted AGAINST IWR.

It is time to set the record straight. The United States Congress never voted for the Iraq war. Rather, Congress voted for a resolution in October 2002 which unlawfully transferred to the president the decision-making power of whether to launch a first-strike invasion of Iraq. The United States Constitution vests the awesome power of deciding whether to send the nation into war solely in the United States Congress.

Those members of Congress—including certain Democratic presidential candidates—who voted for that October resolution cannot now claim that they were deceived, as some of them do. By unlawfully ceding the war-declaring power to the president, they allowed the president to start a war against Iraq based on whatever evidence or whatever lies he chose. The members of Congress who voted for that October resolution are as complicit in this illegal war as is the president himself.

9. yup. which is why I cannot/willnot vote for Kerry or Edwards

Or Nader.

Maybe I'll write in Howard Dean. I honestly don't know what I'm gonna do yet.

[BillZBubb]

10. You cannot be serious?!

You would throw away your vote and risk allowing Bush* a second term just because the Dem voted for the IWR?

If so, you just lost my respect. And do you post at "Nader Underground"?

[kysrsoze]

14. Thanks for the wasted vote!

Are you insane? Are you REALLY willing to risk that? I'm really floored at how ridiculously ignorant people can be.

[BillZBubb]

11. I find your nickname for one of our candidates offensive

Supposedly, we are here to SUPPORT Democrats. Am I missing something? I thought BUSH* was the enemy. Pardon my naivete.

[Nay]

3. Holy shit! I'm not sure he was joking, though. He probably knows

the BFEE better than we do.

[Carolina]

4. yeah remember

he beat Poppy in the GOP primary in 1988. Afterward they probably took him to the woodshed, he lost the nomination, and fell in line. He knows whereof he speaks.

[DennisReveni]

7. Ya Know.

"he beat Poppy in the GOP primary in 1988. Afterward they probably took him to the woodshed, he lost the nomination, and fell in line. He knows whereof he speaks."

One of those Bushco biographers pointed out that before the 1980 election Reagan was promising to investigate the Trilateral commission. Then at the convention, due to some backroom wrangling Bush was shoved down Reagan's throat. And Reagan drop the investigation idea.
This goes a long way toward explaining the animosity between the Reagan's and the Bush's.

[Unknown Known]

8. I heard this, too

I'm sure it left most viewers scratching their heads, but anyone who knows the BFEE (and Buchanan surely does)knows they are equivalent to The Sopranos:evilgrin:

[Fight_n_back]

12. Not at all equivalent!!!

Tony Soprano would never run these kinds of defecits..plus he does his own wetwork.

[spanone]

13. I'm not a Buchanan fan but he's no bush* fan so we do agree on something

[Poiuyt]

15. I hate Buchanan's politics but

I think he's a pretty good political analyst. He can put his opinions aside and be objective.
