Pat Buchanan started using the name "America First" again during his Presidential runs. Apparently they have a party again.

1. Wasn't Lindy An American Firster, Too?
I was listening to AAR the other night and I thought about the term "New World Order"...when Poppy Bush first started using it after the Berlin Wall fell and how it's now become the PNAC mantra. Coincindence to the America Firsters? Makes ya go hmmm....

Joe Conason wrote about this in "Big Lies" very interesting. They may have offically disbanded but many of the continued to bleed into other conservative groups and did.

2. Oh, so that's where the "Blame America Firster's" comes from.
Who knew? Buchanan and his siter are wackjobs. Don't trust either one for a moment, cause they'll stab you in the back.
