Pat Buchanan is exactly what I’d expect from an Irish guy from the South Side of Chicago. Exactly!

“…his show hasn’t booked a Conservative guest in over a year.”

I’m sure there are scads of conservatives just rarin’ for a chance to go on Olbermann’s show. They probably just have “schedule conflicts” that keep them away, yes?

Me: “You realize he’s ripped into the Democratic leadership more than once.”

SaveFarris: “which is why I did not say ‘… Keith Olbermann talking about one-sided criticism’ I specifically chose ‘echo chamber’ because his show hasn’t booked a Conservative guest in over a year.”

Gee, I wonder why?

… Ann Coulter talking about civility.
… Larry Craig talking about Restroom Etiquette.

Those are pretty good.

…Bill O’Reilly talking about anything.

CS – And that Jon Stewart also makes fun of Democrats. But in the right-wing world, any criticism of right-wingers makes you at best a RINO, at worst a treacherous liberal, even if you also go after absurdity and corruption on the left side of the aisle.

Whereas Pat Buchanan is just what you’d expect from the south side of Buchenwald.

That’s overstating his expertise. Pat Buchanan is an expert on white men just like Pat Buchanan. Beyond that he either doesn’t know, doesn’t care, or some combination of both.

Oliver… Of course Buchanan isn’t an expert on the black man. He’s an expert on the white man. And he’s reporting (maybe accurately) on what white men expect of a “black guy from the South Side of Chicago.”

Pat Buchanan talking about Black people is like …

… Howard Dean talking about the South.
… Ted Kennedy talking about healthy living.
… Ann Coulter talking about civility.
… Bill Belicheck talking about Sportsmanship.
… Isiah Thomas talking about Women in the workplace.
… Keith Olbermann talking about a Conservative Echo chamber.
… Larry Craig talking about Restroom Etiquette.

CS: I checked (even before I read your comment), and nowhere did they use the A word.

Yes, I was expecting it, and no one called Obama “articulate.” Sad to say, that’s progress for these folks.

These people are so incredibly racist that they don’t even realize they are racist.

I’m constantly amazed by the fact that none of Obama’s speeches contain the phrase “M-Fer, I want more iced tea.”

My favorite quarterback Donovan McNabb is from the South side of Chicago and I’d love to have a guy like him living next to me. Same for his whole family. They’re my kind of people.

I don't know what you're insinuating, OW. I mean, I'm a black guy from the South Side of Chicago, and I see nothing at all racist about implying that the 'articulate' Obama is unique. Now I'm gonna follow Quaker's lead and go get me some Night Train, yo.

Well, yeah. I mean you almost never see Obama drinking from a bottle of cheap wine in a paper bag, right?
