Pat Buchanan, Feminist

This is some amazing talking head video—Pat Buchanan vs. Chris Matthews, both screaming their heads off over whether “gal” is the right term for “Sister Sarah” (Palin) and whether Buchanan’s newfound feminism is really just political opportunism.

Tirades begin at about :55, with Matthews screaming at Buchanan, “Since when did you become Dr. Phil?” and they continue with Buchanan firing back, “What’s your problem with strong women, buddy? … The MS in MSNBC should not stand for misogyny!

If she's so strong, I think she can handle some family ridicule.

So Republicans are feminists now? It's hard to keep track.

Men have estrogen too.

Is there a single person on earth dumb enough to not recognize the nihilism and partisanship? Dumb enough to not realize that if Hillary had squeaked it out, we would now have a McCain/Pawlenty GOP ticket and the Republican talking heads valiantly defending Palin would all be talking about what a castrating harpy the Democratic nominee is?

Sadly, I think there are plenty of people that dumb. You can find some of them on the PUMA blogs.

"They don't owe you anything!!!" Watching Buchanan's bloated face scream these words symbolizes everything that is wrong with the Republican party today.

No, Pat, you're wrong -- they owe me everything. They want me to vote for them and entrust them to run my country. And I should have the right to know about them. ALL about them. Without charges of "sexism" being hurled left and right. How ridiculous!

The difference between these guys is that Pat Buchanan knows deep down he is full of shit and can't take himself *too* seriously. Chris Mathews is just an oblivious narcissistic ass.

Chris is a horrible hack - and stupid on top of all the rest

why is he on TV?

Pat B. I detest but he know the game at least and will tell it like it is when he has to - he sees a new political star and he is right.

Palin MIGHT be our first woman president. Sooner, god forbid, but in the 2012 race she will be the top of the ticket no matter what.

The grooming has started and the loyal Democrats like myself are sucking dust if we don't get in the new game with brains and policy.

Think how well Palin will do on stage with big time makeover on clothes, hair etc. AND message speaking coaching.

As good as she might be now - watch her get much much better in just days/weeks. She will do media, but it will not be a free for all and the first question about pregancies she just might smash someone with a chair.

I am scared, kick in Obama.

(By the way, she is saying simply I do not have to grovel to these overstuffed ego media types. America will agree, most of the talking heads are less skilled than used car hucksters)

It's just so disconcerting the way they're pretending to give a shit about feminism now. Makes me feel all icky.
