Hottest Read on the Eastern Shore

Bill Colley of WGMD, a Talk Radio Station located in Rehoboth, Delaware, in the heart of the Eastern Shore blogged:

Yesterday I bought my copy of Patrick J. Buchanan’s Suicide of a Superpower. I’m late. The book has been the hottest read of Eastern Shore conservatives and libertarians for several weeks. The impact of the 400 plus pages can’t be understated. The work has so frightened Buchanan’s TV network he appears barred from appearing on camera. The American left and its globalist handlers want Buchanan and his words to go away. Greater distribution would surely wake a great many of the slumbering who would be natural allies for nationalists and the political right. The country is coming unglued. This is intentional. The love of country exhibited in schools, churches andMain Stree tparades of my childhood is now labeled jingoism. Buchanan states there is no longer a dominant European Judeo-Christian culture in North America. The past is vilified, universal service ended nearly 4 decades past and as another author stated 15 years ago, Americans are Bowling Alone.

One of Politico's Top Sellers

This week, Politico.com's list of top selling books on American politics lists Patrick J. Buchanan's Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive Until 2025? at number 5.

A National Best Seller, a New York Times Best Seller, and now a Politico.com Top Seller, Buchanan's book is hotter than ever.

God, Turkeys and Indians

With the political left causing the secularization of Thanksgiving, it is of no surprise that most government-run schools teach children that Thanksgiving is a celebration of the Pilgrims thanking the Indians for helping the Pilgrims harvest corn.

Thanking God or our Divine Creator  is so passe'.

In Patrick J. Buchanan's Suicide of a Superpower, he dedicates an entire chapter about how the United States is losing its Christian heritage which is right on point.

Last week's secularization of thanking God for the blessings of liberty and religious freedom has been replaced by the mad rush to buy an iPad at Best Buy. Black Friday is the color of mourning and symbolizes the death of America's Christian heritage.

Harshest Critic Agrees that America is Dying

One of the harshest critiques of Patrick J. Buchanan's New York Times Best Seller comes from Chris Ladd of the Houston Chronicle. He wrote a lengthy blog post denouncing Buchanan's book.  All said, he agrees that America is dying, but shows no concern.

Ladd writes:

America dies over and over again in a thousand different ways, like the cells in your skin. The real test of a culture is not whether it dies, but whether it regenerates itself. What frightens these folks is our nerve-racking dynamism; our accelerating pace of reinvention. We are in fact living through the end of white America. That “end” will be just as catastrophic as the end of Puritan American, the end of Colonial America, the end of White, Male Landowner America, the end of New England Whaling America, the end of Slaveholding America, the end of Rural America, the end of Pre-Industrial America, the end of Jim Crow America, the end of Industrial America and all of the other endings America has experienced in her short history.

In other words, we can be confident that this ending will be yet another in a jarring series of gateways to an ever freer, richer, and more powerful future. Such optimism may be out of step with the spirit of the moment, but it is still the most reasonable and sober expectation of what’s in store for us.

29 Posts by Left-Wing Smear Stooges: Media Matters

Yesterday marked the 29th inaccurate, insidious, and inflammatory post about Patrick J. Buchanan and his National Best Seller Suicide of Superpower by left-wing smear stooges, Media Matters--and we appreciate the free publicity.

That equals about one post every day since the book debuted on October 18th.

Marching goose step with the militant gays and anti-Catholic bigots, Media Matters has spewed hundreds of words of hate and spent many hours pumping up the book.

As Will Rogers said, "You can say what you want about me, but spell my name right."

Widespread Fear of Internal Decay

In a column yesterday, Gregory Rodriguez of the Los Angeles Times wrote:

Reflecting a widespread fear of internal decay and external competition, survey after survey shows that Americans think the country has seen its best days. Last month, a poll commissioned by the Hill newspaper found more than two-thirds (69%) of respondents think the U.S. is in decline, and 83% are very or somewhat worried about the nation's future. Like almost everyone else on the globe, a growing number of us, according to the Pew Global Attitudes Project, believe that China will surpass the U.S. as the premier superpower.

But concern over America's place in the world is one thing, hysteria is quite another. Paleoconservative commentator Pat Buchanan has just published a book, "Suicide of a Superpower," in which he suggests that the United States will collapse by 2025. Likewise, Harvard historian Niall Ferguson, who only eight years ago argued that the U.S. was well positioned to play a constructive imperial role throughout the world, has a new book out in which he asserts the "imminence of our decline and fall."

Queens and Queers at Penn State

Our gay friend and blogger David Badash who loves to blog about Patrick J. Buchanan is in turmoil. 

With the child abuse case rocking Penn State, Badash is upset that Buchanan has linked the episode to the moral collapse of the United States, which now allows homosexual marriages in some states and the North American Man/Boy Love Association (a homosexual pedophile group) to operate freely.

Calling homosexual acts of sodomy a "innate trait fixed at birth," Badash tries to justify Jerry Sandusky's shower behavior anything but homosexual in nature, even calling Sandusky a married man.

What, a football coach can't be gay or in the closet? Don't be an intolerant bigot David!

Badash writes, "Gays are no more likely to be pedophiles than straights are." True, but at Penn State the queens and queers are real, and now out of the closet.

Sandusky appears to have been driven by his homosexual lust, and the scandal and cover-up are true signs of the times: the moral collapse of Happy Valley.

No wonder Buchanan's Suicide of a Superpower is a national best seller.

On Death Bed, Smith Praises Buchanan's Suicide of a Superpower

In a heartbreaking final column for The Baltimore Sun, conservative columnist and radio host Ron Smith (pictured) announced today he is foregoing chemotherapy for Stage 4 pancreatic cancer and instead will receive palliative care at home. He has weeks to live.

In his last column, Smith writes:

I have just finished reading Pat Buchanan's "Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025?" It lays out what has led us to the current unsustainable circumstances that bedevil us. I recommend it to anyone interested in understanding what likely lies ahead.

In my lifetime, America has been transformed from a cohesive society — the greatest country of modern times — into what Buchanan calls "A multiracial, multicultural, multilingual, multiethnic stew of a nation that has no successful precedent in the history of the world."

The country is torn asunder between those who perceive a profound decline and those who believe passionately that there is no decline at all, but rather the beginnings of a march into a progressive utopia. That all previous utopian schemes have failed utterly is ignored.

What is a mere individual to do? Live as sane and decent a life as you can, love your family and friends and understand that everybody is in this together.

My work here is done.

We send our prayers and strength to the Smith family during this extremely challenging time.

Three Weeks on New York Times Best Sellers List

For the third week in a row, Patrick J. Buchanan's Suicide of a Superpower has made it in the prestegious New York Times list of best-selling hard-cover non-fiction books.

With all the controversy and mindless name-calling by the Left, Buchanan's book has captured a wide and broad reading audience.

Buchanan Shares the Love

Tom Piatak writes a spirited defense of Patrick J. Buchanan's Suicide of a Superpower:Will America Survive to 2025? in Chronicles Magazine. He writes:

For all the hue and cry over Buchanan’s supposed “hate,” the emotion that runs through Suicide of a Superpower is not hate, but love.  Buchanan sees the country he grew up in and loved passing away, and he wants to raise his voice in its defense.  As Buchanan writes... “Americans who seek stricter immigration control have been charged with many social sins: racism, xenophobia, nativism. Yet none has sought to expel any fellow American based on color or creed. We have only sought to preserve the country we grew up in. Do not people everywhere do that, without being reviled? What motivates people who insist that America’s doors be held open wide until the European majority has disappeared?  What is their grudge against the old America that eats at their heart?”

The truth is the left-wing mouthpieces who attack Buchanan and do the name calling are filled with hate and bigotry.

Colbert King Jokes about Segregation

Colbert King, columnist for The Washington Post, wrote a sarcastic piece against Patrick J. Buchanan writing:

Speaking of our place in America, MSNBC contributor, author and former Republican presidential candidate Pat Buchanan reminds us in his just-released book, "Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025?," of what black folks have been missing. I never knew we had it so good.

Writing about the segregation era, Buchanan observes, "Back then, black and white lived apart, went to different schools and churches, played on different playgrounds, and went to different restaurants, bars, theaters, and soda fountains. But we shared a country and a culture. We were one nation. We were Americans."

Gosh, I didn't know that. Buchanan and I grew up in the same segregated Washington, D.C. I don't recall black folks having much of a say in the decision to live "apart." The situation about which Buchanan speaks so wistfully was, to my recollection, a racial apartheid arrangement strictly of white people's making. And Lord help us if we strayed across the line.

King ought to know better than to joke or make light about segregation.

 

Even though African-Americans suffered horrific discrimination and enormous injustices, Buchanan observes correctly that Blacks in that era considered themselves Americans, no-less, no-more than others "across the line." 

 

Although King dishonestly and slyly tries to say Buchanan was discussing the affects of and treatment during Segregation;  Buchanan was clearly not. 

Martin Luther King, Jr. was as American as Richard M. Nixon, regardless of their condition or politics.

Buchanan Refutes Charges of Racism and Social Darwinism

Patrick J. Buchanan was interviewed by media personality Rebecca Costa  (pictured) who asked him about the allegations of racism and Social Darwinism in his New York Times Best Seller, Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025?

Costa published this excerpt:

According to Buchanan these indictments come from individuals who have misread the book, “Even identical twins are not born equal. What we want is equality of rights and opportunity - similar to the Olympics where everyone can try-out but we choose the people who represent the United States based solely on their proven ability to excel. That’s the way societies move forward. . .” [Buchanan] continued, “I was in the most egalitarian society of the 20th Century when I stepped off the plane with Richard Nixon in the People’s Republic of China - where everyone was equal, but no one was free. When you have absolute freedom, it automatically produces inequality – because we are unequal in our talents and abilities and drives and courage and perseverance. . . No system is perfect, but the free enterprise system has done more to uplift humankind. I’m not just talking about the robber barons of the 19th century – but the average working man had horrendous working conditions. But these improved over 10, 20, 30 and 40 years, until Americans – the same people who were once swept out of Europe – had the highest living standards the world had ever seen. Freedom is what did that.”

92% want Buchanan on MSNBC

92 percent of voters in an online poll conducted by Mediabistro.com want Patrick J. Buchanan to be able to go on MSNBC to discuss his New York Times Best Seller, Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025?

Color of Change, a left-wing organization with eight known members, has been calling for MSNBC to muzzle Buchanan, the former advisor to three U.S. Presidents, because of his book. The poll results indicate that the Color of Change Censorship Campaign has backfired.

Mediabistro.com, which runs the TV Newser website, asked readers yesterday, “Should Pat Buchanan be allowed on MSNBC to talk about his book?” As of 3:15 p.m. EST today, 92 percent of respondents said yes, while only a mere 5 percent said no.

According to Michael Calderone of The Huffington Post, an unnamed MSNBC Executive has told him that MSNBC made a “conscious decision” not to have Buchanan on air to promote his book. The allegation has been disputed.

Buchanan Banned from MSNBC?

UPDATE: Visit our latest blog post: 92% want Buchanan on MSNBC.

The Huffington Post's Michael Calderone and his leftist pals are spreading a smear: Buchanan has been banned from MSNBC.

While Patrick J. Buchanan is off his regular gig at MSNBC so that he can promote his New York Times Best Seller, Suicide of a Superpower, Calderone, taking his lead from anti-Catholic bigots and left-wing loud mouths, is regurgitating an unverified, false claim.

And now TV Newser's Managing Editor has been duped.

Chris Ariens (pictured) writes, "An MSNBC executive told HuffPo's Michael Calderone that there had been a conscious decision not to have Buchanan on air because of the views expressed in the book..."

But if Ariens had read Calderone's revised posting, he'd note Buchanan has been on air AFTER his book launch. In addition, MSNBC declined to comment on the matter according to Calderone's same blog post.

So our question, who is this so-called "MSNBC executive?"  Why isn't Ariens verifying with his reliable sources at MSNBC and instead relying on the unreliable Calderone?

As sloppy and lazy as Calderone is, sadly Ariens has matched or exceeded his pal's slothfulness.

HuffPo's Calderone: A Lazy and Sloppy Journalist

Yesterday's post by Michael Calderone on The Huffington Post website was erroneous. Feeding right from the bosom of left-wing bigots and not checking his facts before the story posted, Calderone proved he is a lazy journalist. Calderone, who wrongly wrote that Patrick J. Buchanan hadn't been on MSNBC since his best seller Suicide of a Superpower had been launched, was forced to post a correction.

Worse is Calderone's sloppy but revealing Tweets.

When his story first posted, Calderone tweeted, "MSNBC's kept Pat Buchanan off air since controversial book dropped -- some groups hope for good."

With Calderone acknowledging that MSNBC declined to comment on his story, how can he declare MSNBC "kept Pat Buchanan off air" when the facts prove otherwise? And what "groups" are these? Media Matters, Anti-Catholic bigot Abe Foxman, and the eight-known-members of Color of Change. Not a winning coalition to say the least, but a hodge podge of self-promoting, name-calling leftists.

After his editors slapped his hand for making a grave error and then posting a correction, Calderone tweeted, "Correction: Pat Buchanan’s made one appearance on MSNBC since book published -- not since COC campaign."

So now Calderone alleges that Buchanan hasn't been on because of the Color of Change campaign? How about hasn't been on since the Herman Cain sexual harassment scandal broke or hasn't been on since Kim Kardashian (pictured) ended her 72 day marriage?

What leaps of judgement with no sources. With so many spokespersons and others being fired for twittering their inappropriate opinions, Calderone proves he is an idiot stooge of the left, and a lazy and sloppy journalist.

The facts are Buchanan has a wonderful relationship with his employer MSNBC and he currently is "off the reservation" promoting his book.  The left is trying to find deeper meaning in all this is like convincing yourself that you're eating a Rib Eye steak dinner by meditating on a piece of beef jerky for an hour beforehand.

Left-Wing Conspiracies, MSNBC, and Buchanan

If it wasn't bad enough with the orchestrated name-calling by left-wing groups, liberal conspiracy theorists are now claiming Patrick J. Buchanan is MIA on MSNBC since the launch of his New York Times Best Seller, Suicide of a Superpower.

Michael Calderone (pictured) of the liberal blog site The Huffington Post was forced to correct his story today after alleging that Buchanan hadn't been on MSNBC since October 15th.

If Calderone had done his homework, he'd had listened to the Imus in the Morning Show simulcasted on the Fox Business Network on October 18th:

Imus: "When you have a book, they [MSNBC] let you appear with me? or..." Buchanan: "When I have a book...I say they [MSNBC] say you can wander off the reservation, go to various places, as long as you come back."

But the left isn't satisfied and seems to be drooling over nothing. And what Calderone really failed to emphasize was Buchanan's positive relationship with MSNBC. He only mentioned it in passing:

While discussing Buchanan's new book on GBTV, [Glenn] Beck suggested that Buchanan could be completely open on his show. "It's OK, I know you work at MSNBC. I know the lion's cage you have to go into," Beck said, grabbing Buchanan's hand and mock consoling him. "You don't have to even mention you were here. It's OK." "What you don't understand is that I'm like a Jesuit missionary to the Iroquois over there," Buchanan said, chuckling. "No, that's my home network, and I enjoy working over there." Beck broke out again in laughter. "I believed him," he said. "I believed him."(Emphasis added)

Unfortunately for the lefties filled with hate and bigotry, and whose outlandish antics and name-calling only helped boost sales, Patrick J. Buchanan will be coming back to the reservation, MSNBC, with yet another best seller under his belt.

Rejection of Christian Roots

The blog God Discussion reports:

According to Pat Buchanan, conservative commentator and former GOP presidential candidate, America is steadily declining because of its "steady rejection of its Christian roots" and the declining faith in churches.  He sat down with the American Family Association's Brian Fischer to promote his book, Suicide of a Super Power. Buchanan says that religion is the source of all morality and the source of all ethics and that when religion goes, the culture goes, the civilization goes, and finally the people begin to die. Citing the Supreme Court's rejection of a case about the erection of crosses on Utah's highways and criticizing President Obama, Fischer claimed that efforts to purge the mention of God in the public square are happening daily.  "Well, it's the de-Christianization of America," Buchanan opined.  "If the faith,  Christianity, gave birth to our civilization and you reject it, again, the civilization will die and the people will die."

Oakland Violence: A Predictor of Things to Come?

Image appearing on Seattle PI website.

With his hot-selling Suicide of a Superpower making the National Best Sellers list for the second week in a row, we can ask, Is Patrick J. Buchanan a predictor of things to come?

Last weekend, Buchanan correctly predicted that Occupy Wall Street would turn violent. The Daily Caller reported Sunday:

During this weekend’s broadcast of “The McLaughlin Group,” host John McLaughlin asked his panel about what would happen to Occupy Wall Street as its novelty wears off and the weather gets colder. Amid mixed reactions, conservative MSNBC contributor Pat Buchanan described a scenario where freezing temperatures bring out the movement’s violent side. “It’s going to end very, very badly with these folks in the winter,” Buchanan said, “and they’re not going to be getting publicity and they’re going to be acting up and acting badly like the worst of the demonstrators in the 60s … not just overnight camping: They’re going to start fighting with the cops.”

Yesterday, the Associated Press reported:

A protest that shut down the Port of Oakland to show the broadening reach of the Occupy Wall Street movement ended in violence when police in riot gear arrested dozens of protesters overnight who broke into a vacant building, shattered downtown windows, sprayed graffiti and set blazes along the way. At least four protesters were hospitalized Thursday with various injuries, including one needing stitches after fighting with an officer, police said. Several officers were also injured but didn't need hospitalization.

In his  national best selling book, A Republic, Not an Empire, published in 1999, two years before 9/11, Buchanan predicted a terrorist attack by Al Qaeda on U.S. soil. His scenario laid out a "dirty bomb" explosion in Seattle.

In Suicide of a Superpower, Buchanan lays out what is disturbing and destroying "domestic tranquility" and a plan on how to preserve the Republic.

Americans are listening, reading, and then wondering, Is Buchanan right, again?

Abe and the Three Anti-Catholic Tenors

Showing time and time again that he is an anti-Catholic bigot, Abraham H. Foxman and his half dozen supporters at the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) used their stock-in-trade name-calling to blast Patrick J. Buchanan and his New York Times Best Seller, Suicide of a Superpower in a news release yesterday.

Foxman, who appears to show enormous personal hatred and bigotry against Buchanan, was baptized into Catholicism by a nanny during the Holocaust.   He returned to the Jewish faith and his parents near the end of the war.

Maybe having a chip on his shoulder or enormous envy, Foxman has been obsessed for over a decade with Buchanan, a practicing Catholic who, unlike Foxman,  once served as a Senior Advisor to three U.S. Presidents.

For decades now, Foxman  and his cronies have repeatedly denounced and demonized the Catholic Church in bigoted tirades.

We were expecting the "three tenors" to all be singing the same name-calling, anti-Catholic Opera. Thus, we weren't surprised by Foxman's high-pitched news release.

Next it will be countertenor Rabbi Marvin Hier.

Unfortunately,  the final tenor, Irv Rubin, won't be joining the show --- he jumped to his death and committed suicide in 2002 like a distraught mezzo-soprano.

Right Wing Sell-Outs Defend China over Buchanan

After rattling the faux feathers of the Left-Wing, Patrick J. Buchanan's remarks on trade deficits with China in his national best seller, Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025? has brought the wrath of Right-Wing free-traders who have sold out America.

In a blog post that attempts to discredit Buchanan (and the positive review of Buchanan's book by Washington Times Editor Brett M. Decker),  Daniel Rivera Greenwood of the Competitive Enterprise Institute writes:

Many of the “made in China” products we see at big-box retailers are not produced in the United States simply because they are too labor-intensive to be made by American producers.

What? Too labor-intensive?? That's what manufacturing is all about. Is Greenwood saying Americans are too lazy, too stupid to do the work?
