Pat Buchanan is an out and out racist

<snip>
First, America has been the best country on earth for black folks. It was here that 600,000 black people, brought from Africa in slave ships, grew into a community of 40 million, were introduced to Christian salvation, and reached the greatest levels of freedom and prosperity blacks have ever known.

Wright ought to go down on his knees and thank God he is an American.

Second, no people anywhere has done more to lift up blacks than white Americans. Untold trillions have been spent since the ’60s on welfare, food stamps, rent supplements, Section 8 housing, Pell grants, student loans, legal services, Medicaid, Earned Income Tax Credits and poverty programs designed to bring the African-American community into the mainstream.

Governments, businesses and colleges have engaged in discrimination against white folks — with affirmative action, contract set-asides and quotas — to advance black applicants over white applicants.

Churches, foundations, civic groups, schools and individuals all over America have donated time and money to support soup kitchens, adult education, day care, retirement and nursing homes for blacks.

We hear the grievances. Where is the gratitude?

1. has been for a long, long time

[Marrah_G]

2. Is this news to you?

[proud2BlibKansan]

3. And without slave labor to help build this country, . . .

Racists who pull this 'blacks should be grateful' argument always leave that part out.

8. You need to add

built it without receiving one fugging penny.

16. That's what I meant by 'slave labor'

Years ago I saw a short film that went through the cost of paying the slaves. How much it ould have cost the slave owners and the country - and what the US would have gained in tax dollars. It was amazing. We are definitely a wealthy nation today because of the slave labor that built this country.

4. he is but only on the days of the week that end with a y.

[malaise]

5. Y didn't I think of that

:rofl:

yet another self deleted inadvertent duplicate

6. All he is good for is occasionally criticizing the Neocons and making Rachel

seem even more brilliant than she already is.

7. i turn the channel when that fucking gasbag comes on teevee.

[madokie]

14. I only watch KO and Bill Moyers so I don't have to suffer through pats rants much anymore

At one time I made sure that cnn was on if I was in the house but not anymore and I drop them an email from time to time to let them know that I am still here and I am not going to be watching or listening to anymore of their shit. So far I see no effect from that on their part but on mine I feel liberated. I hope to never see, hear or read another lie ever.

9. Yes, it's a known fact.

Watch this if you haven't; very eye opening:

12. Thanks n/t

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

10. For whatever good it did, I wrote an email to MSNBC a couple of weeks ago when this was

published. I asked for the immediate firing of Buchanan! Ha! Not even Keith has mentioned this outrageous OP of Buchanan.

[malaise]

11. I can't wait until someone exposes these hacks the

way the Pentagon hacks were exposed yesterday.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

18. Malaise, unless it's exposed on the teevee, for most people, the truth won't get out there.

:banghead:

[Donnachaidh]

13. WHY is anyone surprised by this rhetoric falling from his mouth?

This *scare the white folk" rhetoric is HOW the Republican party has held on to power since the Reagan administration. And despite all his punditry on MSNBC, Buchanan IS *old-school* Republican, and will toss this sort of shit out whenever he can.

Look at it this way - for him to be spewing this utter bullshit NOW - the pukes must be terrified. This is the sort of nonsense that usually goes down during the general election. For him to be spewing this crap now -- he must be terrified of the outcome in PA and beyond.

[BlueManDude]

15. Turn on talk radio wherever you (Boston, Atlanta, anywhere) and you'll hear the same crap

[IndianaJones]

17. totally shocking. nt.

[chimpymustgo]

19. That is just disgusting. He shouldn't be allowed on national television.

[PVnRT]

20. I'm sure the media will spend as much time on these comments

as on Rev. Wrights'.

[malaise]

24. Don't hold your breath n/t

[Marr]

21. Change a few of those program names, and this could've been written during the Civil War.

I admit-- I'm actually surprised that he'd actually try to make this classic racist argument. That's a little more blatant than I expect from Buchanan. He usually tries to appeal to racists without ever officially joining them.

[NNN0LHI]

22. I never want any of that kind of Christian salvation

[MilesColtrane]

23. Fuck that Nazi prick.

[ecstatic]

25. If only we could flood MSNBC the way we flooded ABC

Pat Buchanan is allowed to spew his filth daily. :puke:

[izquierdista]

26. I predict that by October

Republican rallies will consist of a wild-eyed speaker on a platform yelling "Nigger, nigger, nigger!!", gesticulating and pointing angrily in the air. Their debating tactics will consist of stamping their feet, yelling louder and seeing who can say it the fastest. While they concentrate on black, their faces will turn red as their blood pressure rises (one hopes to the breaking point). TV stations will install little counters like in the South Park episode where they got to say "shit" on the air. Finally, they will be dismissed as Sen. Bilbo was, as pathetic has-beens of a bygone era, the worst of them in mental institutions where they wander sedated, still mumbling that one word, over, and over, and over.
