That aside: why is Pat Buchanan still on a national TV show?
Obviously I missed something. The other day D confessed not only that he was a conservative (like I asked him or even care) but he felt compelled to tell me how he agreed with some of what Pat Buchanan had to say. I don't know what the hell he was talking about (I assume D was referring to that be grateful bs) and why he was saying it to me but what in the world has been going on in this blog?
Can someone point me to the thread where Pat Buchanan and his unwashed White Nationalism was discussed?
Note: HRC's comment about LBJ was laced with that same kind of White Paternalism and Nationalism.
But the GOAT Clinton Surrogate HAS to be Bob Johnson.
Its an interesting argument--but for some reason, I don't buy it in this case. Seems lots of folks lose all kinds of religious law when it is in their best interest.
Besides that, this all the politcal pundits on Faux News need to push the "Obama is a Muslim" bit again. Thank Goodness lots of folks who believe this don't do the Times
She reps my parents district, she went to school with my uncles--and she has been a jerk all her life.
Rachel Maddow did zing him a good one yesterday when she sneered that Pat was a fine one to talk about how much of a problem Obama will have in South Florida with the Jewish vote when he did SOOOOOOO Well with them in 2000.
"The second slot is one possibility: Clinton continues as the preferred choice as Obama’s running mate, with 39 percent of Democrats saying they’d like him to pick her if he's the nominee. That peaks at 59 percent of African-Americans, 47 percent of Clinton supporters and 42 percent of women (vs. 34 percent of men)."
Whhhhaaa?
Kiki McClean is a bottom feeder.
Howard Wolfson has satan in his eyes.
Lanny Davis is pure slither.
I could go on, but I've already broken my agreement today.
That article in the NYT is so full of lies, it's laughable. That the times allowed that shit to go to print is all part of the MSM smear to try to make Obama unelectable.
Nothing else has derailed the Obabma express. So now, someone decided to twist the Muslim smear into a new package to see if it sells. It won't.
I have no doubt that at some point, Obama will give a speech on religion and politics to push back against all this drivel.
The print MSM is peddling fear (Obama will be killed abroad; racism is too powerful at home), while Obama is getting delegates left and right.
Know hope.
They Were Eating Cake.
Be sure to play the YouTube ad at the end.
If this ad runs enough in Lousiana before the general election, McCain is in trouble.

High Court Can't Intervene Because 4 Justices Forced To Sit Out Case Over Apparent Conflicts

WASHINGTON, May 12, 2008
I haven't had a chance to look into the background of this story but it is especially interesting because during disclosures of corporate interests (a federal court requirement), it was discovered that the justices couldn't hear the case because of the corporate interests they hold in some of the companies named in the lawsuit.
The one that sticks out for me is Alito who has stock with Exxon mobile.
Again, I don't know the entire history of the case, but I think it's great that those specially picked to sit on the Court and effect presidence, can't stop this case against state sponsored racism from proceeding because of there associations with the very corporations that are named as aiding in the racism.
Does anyone know anything about this case?
So Bush was wrong for celebrating McCain's birthday?
Do tell: what should he have been doing?
It's how McCain voted after the disaster that is most revealing.
He's in trouble. And you know it.
That's all.
You can't really be serious. What should he have been doing the day the levees broke besides celebrating a birthday?
The rest of the country was in tears - we were talking about the situation in our workplaces, donating money, organizing volunteers to go to Louisiana to help and on and on and on.
Have you lost your mind - have you forgotten the devastation - at the very least they should have sent the cake to the Dome.
Will have to look into the other ones. I'm just about sure, though, that there's a reason why he voted against the other bills (if, in fact, he did). Of course, whatever that reason is will be lost in the DNC spin.
So should Pres. Bush have gone down to LA/MS and started evacuating survivors?
Folks....read my post downways some about Obama and Religion. The more I see crap like this, the more I believe the supposition set forth in that post is correct.
That whole money thing (same as HilBills) is super suspicious. The rednecks need to hear about that...
About the anti-war thing...
IF she had apologized for her vote the same way that John Edwards did...before or very soon after John Edwards did...it would have been muted as an issue. Her unwillingness to do that gave Obama his opening that he took.

Jack Johnson is from my neck of the woods,and a low down dirty piece of shit!
..., rikyrah!!!!!
Thanks for dropping by. :)
Thanks for those great diaries. I'll say it again - you get the best pics.
I'll start with the CNN bunch:
Wolf "but but" Blitzer
Campbell "Mrs. Dan Senor" Brown
Anderson "puzzled" Cooper
Gloria Borger or Berger
Lou "racist" Dobbs
William "abort black babies" Bennet
Glenn "super racist" Beck
Rick "I don't understand Jack" Sanchez

WASHINGTON - John Hagee, an influential televangelist who endorsed John McCain, is apologizing to Catholics for referring to the Roman Catholic Church as "the great whore" and calling it "the apostate church."

and I agree about Lanny Davis...yech!
Don't worry, I'll wait.
my point is that her campaign was gratuitously provocative. she drove more of the anti war vote away with each heavy handed insult. she could have held the line on not offering the edwards apology but the extra insults were unnecessary and they hurt her vote totals.
there is this quote in the hillary as hitler video that andrew sullivan posted, hillary/hitler says "those anti-war move on types choking on their tofu over my war vote"....so funny and on the money. she couldn't control her hate for the opposition. and that is her downfall.
Last week Lanny Davis made me want to walk to Atlanta for the joy of slapping him...LOL.
Not a fan of Tubbs either - she BETTER be just as strong for Barack.
But I can't stand McAuliffe or Davis or Carville or Billy Jeff.
Then there's Clinton herself.

West Virginia Preview: Clinton by 39 points, 105,000 votes
Since Washington, DC earned its first electoral votes in 1964, no Democrat has won the White House without carrying that jurisdiction. And yet, Hillary Clinton lost the District's primary by 52 points. How can she claim to be electable if she can't win in the most reliably Democratic Congressional District in the country?"
Keeping Our Faith With Veterans
I don't guess this qualifies as patriotism.
Crow Nation and Fort Peck Tribes in MOntana
I don't think "grace" and "Clinton" fit in the same sentence.
Now, Rachel Maddow thinks tonight will spark a turning point in how Obama treats Hillary. Basically, she thinks Hillary's gonna run up the score and rub it in Obama's face.
I happen to agree with Maddow on this. I think Hillary takes a bunch of shots at Obama during her victory speech. I think her campaign goes even more negative than it has the past week.
They will push the "he can't win (*ahem. . . white votes*) argument like never before.
Lanny Davis and Howard Wolfson will be on steroids tonight.
So here's the question. . . Does the media take the bait? Does the media switch narratives? If so, is it a bump in the road or will it have a lasting impact?
Obama's gonna have to FORCE Hillary out of this race. And it will be all the more clear by about 8:30pm tonight.
Don't worry, this nomination is his. But he's gonna have a few more headaches on his hands if he's not careful.
And PLEASE. . . find a way to kill the "popular vote" nonsense coming from camp Hillary.
If Dems keep fighting till Aug or Clinton and Obama...you better believe the reckoning is coming.
I end up calling my sister and saying "is she kidding, is she delusional, what do the Clinton's have on her?" It's not so much that she supports Clinton, a lot of people do, so that's not the odd thing. It's the lengths she goes to spin situations that makes me so frustrated. She is so happy read the script hoping to move the goal post as if she never heard that Michigan and Florida were out of play, never considered the importance of the delegate count and happily downplays large diverse states that went for Obama because they did not vote for Clinton (well she actually says they aren't important in a general election unlike the pro-Hillary states). And okay I do have a problem with Tubby-J coming out talking about how important West Virginia is and how Hillary will take it right after Clinton's whole hard working white American and uneducated white Americans (I'm paraphrasing) comments were made. It didn't feel right. But to each there own. If she didn't seem like she were a Clinton puppet I would like her more, but I feel like I haven't heard any of her own true views, just Clinton sound-bites, throughout this election.
Someone mentioned BOB JOHNSON..WTF!!! This is a billionaire for christ sakes!! Someone told me that he is heavily leveraged and the Clintons have him by the balls.
This is a main Clinton fundraiser.
