Yes he did answer...

From the transcript:

MADDOW: How did you do at Georgetown compared to how she did at Princeton?

BUCHANAN: I'll tell you, I graduated higher in my high school, I will bet or as high as she did. And I certainly say, in Georgetown, I did. And I'll tell you, I will match my test scores against her-but I'm not qualified for the United States Supreme Court.

Pat's being able to spew his racism on primetime TV though gives credence to those views and then the voters ELECT folks like Sessions, Kyl, HATCH and Graham…so while Pat may not have the power..he fuels the fire and provides the influence via the media..to keep those guys in power!

Yep, it is like he is the a-hole on a winning team, and no one will go after their teammate.

Yes, LV you are right there are INFREQUENT times when folks take on Pat, they are too few and far between his CONSISTENT racist vitriol.

O'Donnell is awesome and Rachel built her CRED on taking down Pat numerous times on RACEtotheWH.

Rachel IF I were to give her the benefit of the doubt, it would be in recognizing that she did all this BEFORE becoming host of her own show. And that PERHAPS as HOST she cannot go for the JUGULAR of guests, as she did in this vids...or she will have difficulty getting guests to come on. Which as most of us saw, in her first shows, she was unable to get 'top' politicos as the NEW kid on the block.

However, given that Benefit of the doubt, she completely blew it, when she went after Obama about Prop8 and recently on AffACt/Sotomayor..when she let Buchannans remarks go unrebutted despite the record stats and facts being solidly behind the opposing view which she failed to voice.

Ron christie needs to go home and maybe his eyes will straighten up. I think he is being punished for his ass kissing.

yeah, tis so. The statement that “all republicans are not racist, but it seems that all racists are republican” seems to be quite true. And since the election they have just gone made with their racism. Just nasty and evil.

"See Rachel should have had that ready for him if she was going to ask him that question."

ICA!!
Which is why I have loss interest in her show. She did the same shyt with Prop8, failing to provide the stats and data that complete refute what is being stated.

Rachel is ALL about GBL issues...she skims over& omits facts
when it is convenient.

Yes, that is what Rachel asked, but Pat compared himself to her in HS saying he did well i.e he didn't answer her on Georgetown.

But as Rikyrah says below even THAT was a lie.

I'd love to see him go over to the Fox News. that's where he belongs. He and the rest of the slime can live happily ever after. I don't watch fox News and so therefore I would not hve to listen to him on the channels that I do watch. Everybody knows what fox news is and so who gives two grunts.

I am 67 years old and I have heard the spews of Pat Buchanan all my life. There is nothing he can say that has not already been said too much. I don't need to hear his rantings to know how people like him feel about those who are unlike him….many of the laws of this country show you everyday how they feel. I would rather hear someone who you consider hiding their feelings who might be trying to learn something and interact to perhaps understand why they may be feeling somethings, rather than Buchanan and his ilk, There feelings have been that way all of their lives, they don't want an interchange in conversation because that's the way they intend to feel all their lives. I can look around me at the injustices to others because of their feelings. He has no respect for me as a human being and I none for him and his racisms.

When I said I “respect” him for being out with his racism, I stand by that, why should he hide how he really feels, I for one want to know. He says out loud for the world to hear what Jon Kyl, John Cronyn, Jefferson Beuargard Sessions and Lindsay Graham all believe and won't say in public like each and every one of the Southern GOP contigent, which to me is worse than Pat as they actually are the ones making the laws in this country based on what Pat and those who agree with his hate.

Getting rid of Pat Buchanan does nothing for the hate he spews, he will be replaced with someone else, only, someone who would be a wee bit more subtle and not in your face like a rabid dog, like the majority of the Republicans in the senate and House are.

I am one who believes in freedom of speech. Every since I can remember I've had to hear such crap as what this racist idiot said the other night. I am sick to death of the right of people like him to speak and others silenced. I want to see him in debate with Fararkhan who can split him up the back and down the spine. I do detest the sickness that this man sits on his ole white ass and spews to the world. Thank heavens that there are less and less people in this country who belives like him. As he is older than I , I hope to live to see his ass lowered into the grave then I can say…One more gone to hell. He is a disgrace to this nation and someone needs to ban him from the air. If Black people got on TV and said the things that this idiot spouts they would be considered as ones trying to overthrough the government. He loves Hitler and writes about him so much maybe there could be a fund created to send him to Germany, albeit, they probably wouldn't want him and his hateful mouth over there either. I am sick of hearing what he has to say. Because he has nothing to say.

Ok to all of my smart- techie friends on this thread: How do we construct-propose-develop a petition to ask that Pat Buchanan be disallowed from presenting his racist remarks over the airwaves of MSNBC? We need to know how to then have it communicated (e-mailed, IM'd, or other avenues) to the leaders of MSNBC.

By: EdnaMae

EdnaMae — Sun, 19 Jul 2009 15:56:37 +0000

Getting him canned will do nothing, he will head on over to Fixed Noise, make more money and have a bigger audience. At least where he is, he shows people of good will that hate is alive and well and needs to be confronted.

People like Pat should be allowed to spew and look like fools of a bygone era, although to be honest, there are still many millions who agree with him, and I only wish that all the Republicans, and, more than a few Democrats, who agree with him would publicly instead of in private, that way that party of hate would go away sooner.

I agree. It is unacceptable what MSNBC is allowing this racist bigot to do. I have written MSNBC many times about this and I am sure many others have as well. I'm tired of being ignored. It's time for action.
I am ready also.

I agree with your double standard applied to Wanda Sykes. Wonder why? I think we know: the status quo of male, white was being righteously maligned by Ms. Sykes. I enjoyed it and wanted her to say more. When she said something about “over the line”, she knew exactly what that meant. And what was meant was to “pull back a little”. But I am not a public figure, and do not depend on the status quo for my livelihood, I can say whatever I please. And since it is not against the law, or deemed criminal [go to jail] for being poor, I just say what I wish to say, abiding by all required codes of conduct. I hope that others will have enough guts to do the same thing. As I stated in another comment that I left previously, Pat Buchanan needs to go.

I can not find any respect for a RACIST at all, on any level; especially on the level of Pat Buchanan. What is unacceptable about Buchanan is that he is allowed to spew untruths to a world public. His hate-spewing is carried around the world giving solace and encouragement to the other bigots of the world. And I can just imagine Buchanan laughing all the way to the bank. He should not be working in such a media venue where he can give his racist opinion without any consequences. Buchanan should be fired immediately and if you readers have a suggestion on how WE can help get this accomplished, please post it and I will follow-up. Perhaps a signed petition directed to MSNBC bosses will do the trick to let them know how upsetting this is. I feel that it is time for action, on our parts, to do something about this. Is it no longer alright to wait for someone to do something about what is bothering us. Let's get it together. I am ready.

Wanda Sykes was saying things that lots of people think too, when the media couldn't wait to leave the dinner before she was tagged as stepping over the line. She said exactly what I thought. Now when do people like Buchanan step over the line. I've been hearing the crap he's talking all my life. I have it memorized as well as others so I don't need to hear it anymore.

You mean, sitting on their asses making someone else do all the work. That's what they did. Cause the ones who did the work that are white are still working and getting no money and voting against their best interest.
