OMG, I agree with Pat Buchanan on the auto bailout. GREAT quote from him.

[Hamlette]

Be it BMW, Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Mazda, Mitsubishi or Hyundai, the South has become a sanctuary for foreign assembly plants, for which Southern states have been paying subsidies.

Fine.

But why this “Let-them-eat-cake!” coldness toward U.S. auto companies? General Motors employs more workers than all these foreign plants combined. And, unlike Mitsubishi, General Motors didn’t bomb Pearl Harbor.

(yes, a little over the top there at the end but good for him. Once every 3 or 4 years I agree with Pat on something. Must be his turn in the cycle.)

5. Oh but he's SOOO funny.....

... the way he can take ANYTHING and make it sound like it's something to be concerned about.

"What we need to worry about is why Obama has such big ears and WHY he isnt' adressing this matter to the American people! A lot of my buddies from the Nixon days went to jail for having such big ears and Obama owes us an explanation."

And then when he gets caught in his BS and laughs. Funny funny.

Of course one of my fav. times was when he called Jessie Jr. on wanting the Senate seat (and this was WAY before the Blago thing) "So, Jessie, do you think you might be interested in that senate seat?" "Why yes Pat, I would ... thank you for asking." "You're welcome!"

He's good tv.

6. Did he do his "karate chop" hands when he was talking?

2. I feel so bad for my friends back home in michigan and my

father in law who is living on his pension after 43yrs of work for Ford. This country is in a mess...a real fucking mess. We bail out the banks and they won't loan money to people? Sick!

4. Pat's "Toyota Republicans" piece is disgusting.

Fuck Pat Buchannan and his blanket-statement bullshit.
