Joan Walsh Calls Out Pat Buchanan for Comparing Sonia Sotomayor to Harriet Miers

Joan Walsh calls out Pat Buchanan for describing Sonia Sotomayor as an "affirmative action" pick and trying to compare her to Harriet Miers. Why does Matthews think anyone cares what this racist, sexist, relic thinks? I swear I think Buchanan has a cot in the MSNBC studio and just sleeps there they have him on so much. Buchanan backs down a bit after Walsh gets onto him and points out Sotomayor's educational background and the number of years she's served as a judge, but mark my words he'll be right back on Morning Joe repeating the same nonsense with Scarborough or one of their other guests chiming in with him.
Pat still hasn't gotten over Nixon getting run out of office. He's always a sure bet to be out there fighting for the poor, downtrodden white man who just hasn't gotten a fair shake in this country.

Is a liar and a fool but he is a republican what else could you expect?
republicanism is a mental illness. WE have been living with these sick bastards for over thirty years now.
Have we become so use to lunacy that we think it is normal?
Just plain crazy republican lunacy!
I never watched Pat Buchanan until he was on some of the Rachel Maddow shows, a segment that she thankfully dropped. As far as "Uncle Pat" (as Rachel calls him), he makes the obligatory far right-wing comment and then does not put forth a very strong defense.
You will then see him backtrack on his initial comment a little in response to the other guest's arguments. I noticed on Rachel that he always gave her a little smile at the end of the segment, like, "Well done, kid."
It's all just for show. Although I'm not denying that Uncle Pat is deranged. It's just that he knows what he is saying is B.S. - that's his job.
