:rofl:

...and then denied it was code word for "black". Is he for real? I'm starting to think it's Stephen Colbert with a sock puppet.

3. Why doesn't he just say what he
MEANS. Why is this fool still on MSNBC? He's been a blatant racist for years.

his attempt to wriggle out.

mad rants again.

15. Dan's feedback page.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22610959/

I asked Dan if he's waiting for Pat to actually use the N word to put the brakes on him.

16. Buchanan was especially rabid today.
Exotic's the new word. That was just ... special.

17. Throwing tags at the wall to see what will stick
These people are so predictable. They will attack repeatedly until they think they have an angle to bring Obama down.
If that isn't enough, they will find a new angle. It's a smear fest from the right

18. Pat's world is pretty damn small
Anyone who isn't a pasty male is "exotic" in his world. The sheer amount of fear in that man is mind boggling.

21. I'm not defending Pat here, but....
Edited on Thu Jun-12-08 10:01 PM by silverojo
You have to admit, Obama does have a certain exotic charm...particularly when compared to the pasty old fart he's running against.

But of course, we all know what he really meant....

:rofl:

22. My favorite Pat Buchanan quip...
was when he was comparing white voters in West Virginia to black voters in Pennsylvania as "us vs. them". A classic, from Race-baiter #1. And to think this guy wanted to be President.

25. Pat's "Exotic"=Educated black person not from the 'hood, esp. with some
"foreign" influence in their background.

In other words, Pat is dogwhistling to his racist friends that Obama isn't the "typical negro." :eyes:
