Buchanan: ‘White America’ Died Last Night

Pat Buchanan crawled out of his hole...


Conservative political pundit Pat Buchanan stoked controversy today by claiming that Barack Obama's reelection has 'killed White America'. The paleoconservative nativist is no stranger to racial controversy, having previously been accused of writing books with racist and anti-semitic undertones.But the former Nixon advisor was more explicit on the G. Gordon Liddy Show this morning. When asked for his reaction to Obama's victory, Buchanan replied brazenly:


"White America died last night. Obama's reelection killed it. Our 200 plus year history as a Western nation is over. We're a Socialist Latin American country now. Venezuela without the oil."Stunned by his clear racisim, Liddy tried to walk his guest back from the ledge: "With what you just said right there...You seem to imply that white people are better than other people. That's not really what you're saying is it?" "Of course that's what I'm saying," Buchanan replied "Isn't it obvious? Anything worth doing on this Earth was done first by white people."


"Who landed on the moon? White people. Who climbed Mount Everest? White people. Who invented the transistor? White people. Who invented paper? White people. Who discovered algebra? White people." "And don't give me all this nonsense about Martin Luther King and civil rights and all that. Who do you think freed the slaves? Abraham Lincoln. A white guy!"

Carte Blanche


"But we're not led by Lincoln anymore, we're led by an affirmative-action mulatto who can't physically understand how great America once was." "I cried last night G. I cried for hours. It's over for all of us. The great White nation will never survive another 4 years of Obama's leadership. Liddy tried to reason with Buchanan, reminding him that he shares similar positions with the President on Afghanistan, Iraq, and relations with Russia:


"Of course I agree with half of what he does," Buchanan answered, "He's half white! That's not the half I'm worried about."
Buchanan served as a speechwriter in the Nixon White House. He was fired as an MSNBC analyst this year following the publication of a book many considered to be racist.

And, okay, dammit, foiled again by the dailycurrent. It's just too hard to figure out if something is satire anymore with these Republican fuckwits.

It may be satire, but the best satire has a tiny drop of truth in it.

Buchanan really believes this. I'm glad MSNBC finally fired him, but it shouldn't have taken that long to do so.

This is the saddest thing I have seen this whole cycle. I always knew he was crazy, but the level to which he has sunk is unbelievable. Little sister Bay better get him in a home quickly, he has totally lost it.

THANK GOD!!!!!

I am sick and tired of these people who only cater to Wealthy White Landowners and Fetuses. United States is a country of many cultures which is what makes us wonderful. We all deserve a voice in running our government!

saying every one of those words. Every last one. It may be satire, but there's a basketball-sized grain of truthiness in it.

I mean, the Dailycurrant could easily have cobbled this together from actual Buchanan statements.

So I'm not sure how to feel right now.
