Eugene Robinson is handling Bigot Buchanan very well today.
Buchanan is coming off like an stubborn old white guy who quite sure he's not racist because he worked with 'the negros' at the plant and insists that the separate break rooms were necessary to prevent fights, because, well, you know... the truth is the truth is the truth and thats all I'm sayin'

Again I ask, why is this man given airtime.

Thank you, Mr. Robinson, I could not laugh that fool off as easily as you do.

2. I wish they would show that mock $100 bill McGaffe had in an ad before Obama talked about not
Edited on Tue Aug-05-08 04:40 PM by Motown_Johnny
looking like the men on our currency

Pat used that statement as the beginning of the race card being played. That ad clearly predates BHO's statement and is a direct response to it.

There can be no doubt that McGaffe played that card first.. why won't anyone point that out???

5. It bothers me that no one is pointing that out
I've sent many emails. I don't understand why Obama's surrogates don't care about the truth.

3. Gene is a much better person than I am.
I think that I would just lose it on the air if I had to debate Pat, but Gene and Rachel prove themselves to be such sports about it.

yup.
Gene Robinson and Pat Buchanan get to debate each other over who "played the race card". Yes, this is Hardball's what, 4th or 5th day in a row doing a segment on the race card? I guess it was bc Pat and Gene both wrote about it(at least, that was Hardball's excuse)...I really don't want to read about what Pat wrote on it. Gene was classy as always, Pat could not mask his racism as always.

11. I kind of enjoy listening to Bucky as he strains his panties and his voice goes up.
EverI guess that's my degenerate pleasure.

I just want to be there when he pops a vessel.
