"I think white men were 100% of the people who wrote the constitution, 100% of the people who signed the Declaration of Independence, 100% of the people who died at Gettysburg and Vicksburg, probably close 100% of the people who died at Normandy. This has been a country basically built by white folks."

That was Buchanan on Rachel Maddow defending ( Read more... )

any respect I had for Pat Buchanan was lost last night watching this. And I doubt that we will see him on Rachel's show (omg, how does he tolerate her, she is gay, after all) anymore, and hopefully not on MSNBC.

Go to FOX, Pat, where you belong.

No women showed up to sign the Declaration of Independence, because they were too busy shopping and doing their nails. And because Thomas Jefferson used big words they couldn't understand. Oh, and it wasn't pink.

I can only hope that the more Pat Buchanan talks, the more he exposes himself for the ass that he is.

According to his Wikipedia article he claims the American Civil War was just about state's rights... despite basically every major political figure in the Confederacy being on record as saying it was about slavery, and the Confederate Constitution including no more right for a state to secede than the US constitution they were rebelling against. This is clearly a guy who doesn't let facts get in the way of his positions.
