Why is Tweety giving Pat Buchanan air time

[malaise]

Good fugging grief!! You'd never believe that Sarah Palin was whipped last November.

1. It's because GE wants him back on.

2. Pat Buchanan is a salaried commentator for MSNBC. He's the "conservative viewpoint."

He's doing a great job pushing your buttons, apparently. That's what they pay him to do--get you shaking your fist, and watching, waiting for the next outrage, so you can shake your fist some more.

If you don't like it, vote with your remote. That's the best solution.

3. Again?

Come on, sis. I count on you to be my Distant Early Warning system, and you never let me down. But what do I do to prepare myself for 7 pm? I mean, I JUST WOKE UP!

All-nighters at my age? Oh, dear.....................

13. I trust you did not watch sis

Pathetic :hi:

[Orsino]

4. Professional courtesy.

Between whores.

5. his contract must be fearsome

IMO, a solid year-long or multi year contract is all that keeps a lot of these lunatics on the air.
Maybe the network doesn't dare try to break them.

6. Because Tweety is a tool. nt.

[Captain Hilts]

7. The network has no money and Buchanan will come on for $20. nt

8. Buchanan works cheap.

And like the old saying goes ... you get what you pay for.

9. Because Uncle Pat is funny as hell. BT

10. Let them have him. He's a loon and if he's seen as the repuke spokesman, all the better.

[burning rain]

11. Buchanan was a stupid, blinkered Palin cheerleader in that segment.

It's a given that he's a bastard -- he needs to at least be an interesting bastard.

12. Sarah can do no wrong in Pat's eyes.

He's good for comic relief. :rofl:
