Remarkably the voice of reason -- Pat Buchanan |
|
"these Mason-Dixon polls are 5 days old and the tracking polls are daily and the spread is widening"
Thank you Pat - you 90% asshole but 10% reasonable guy.

1. If only he'd actually been WITH Hitler, WWII would have been 10% less bad. n/t |

5. Good point. That 90% is hard to get over. |
|
But this idiotic spin using these M-D polls is getting ridiculous. It was refreshing to hear wacko Pat say something honest about it.

|

4. Yep and besides that they also show Obama improving from the |
|
last time the polls were taken form Mason-Dixon. It really just shows how desperate they are to try to make some sort of horserace narrative when nothing could be further from the truth.

7. Right. The M-D poll are actually good news for Obama. But these MJ idiots will never admit it. |

6. he only said that once Halperin showed up |
|
before that, he was spewing the hateful idea of a 10 million vote Obama victory in popular vote but McCain winning an electoral squeaker and then oh boy all his fears about other races would come true (was his implication and where he was going with that).

8. I enjoy watching him on MSNBC sometimes - They keep him around |
|
like an old monkey in a cage, and every so often Rachel popkes him with a stick and makes him jump....
Good job, Patty - you would have been a terrible president, although probably better than W or McCain.

9. I actually think that Pat has a good understanding of politics and how it works |
|
When he sticks to that and not the issues, he is very good. However, when he gets onto the issues, he just sucks.

10. He means well, but don't forget: he follows the talking points memos, AND he is racist |
|
and sexist. He doesn't feel that way intentionally. It is so ingrained in him that he doesn't even recognize it. He actually thinks that is the correct, normal way that people think.
"Forgive him. He knows not what he does."

Just saying that he does have a good political mind. If he could only stick to that and not stray I might like him. But mostly he is a big windbag.

11. The Mason Dixon Polls are useless. They were taken before 30 min ad. |
|
People moved to Obama after that

you don't have to agree with someone politically to respect their intelligence and entertainment value.

17. I like Pat Buchanan because he is so jingoistic and racist that he makes everyone else look good |
|
*dripping sarcasm*
I like Athlete's Foot, boils on my ass, and that STD that drips and makes peeing excruciating. If you want to hear more lies, I could go on...

14. One thing about Pat regarding politics is that he is a realist and knows that a crushing defeat is |

coming while the others want to pretend it's not.

16. Doesn't say much but... |
|
At least he's better than his sister. When he debates with Rachel he can sometimes be charming (although its hard to forget how racist he is) His sister on the other hand makes me want to puke.
