Mexico is the greatest foreign policy crisis I think America faces in the next 20, 30 years. Who is going to care, Andrea* 30 years from now whether a Sunni or a Shia is in Baghdad or who's ruling in Kabul? We're going to have 135 million Hispanics in the United States by 2050, heavily concentrated in the southwest. The question is whether we're going to survive as a country.
or this, when he eulogizes Hitler:
When Paris fell, did Hitler not demand the French fleet, as the Allies demanded and got the Kaiser's fleet? Why did he not demand bases in French-controlled Syria to attack Suez? Why did he beg Benito Mussolini not to attack Greece? Because Hitler wanted to end the war in 1940, almost two years before the trains began to roll to the camps.
Buchanan has claimed that Hitler wasn't just a man of peace, but "an individual of great courage."
or this, when he embraces the ideology of Anders Behring Breivik, the Norwegian right-wing terrorist:
...this is (not) to deny the the presence of violent actors or neo-Nazis on the European right who bear watching. But, awful as this atrocity was, native-born and homegrown terrorism is not the macro-threat to the continent. That threat comes from a burgeoning Muslim presence in a Europe that has never know mass immigration, its failure to assimilate, its growing alienation, and its sometime sympathy for Islamic militants and terrorists. Europe faces today an authentic and historic crisis . . . As for a climactic conflict between a once-Christian West and an Islamic world that is growing in numbers and advancing inexorably into Europe for the third time in 14 centuries, on this one, Breivik may be right.
Patrick Buchanan is an old white man, hard-core Catholic (along the lines of Antonin Scalia, Clarence Thomas, John Roberts, Anthony Kennedy and Samuel Alito) who is afraid of everything. You can let MSNBC know that you want Cenk back and Pat gone at http://msnbc.com/.
