Pat Buchanan's "The American Cause" Think Tank to Host Peter Brimelow, Leading White Nationalist, at National Anti-Immigration Conference

While right wing racist Pat Buchanan is railing against Sonia Sotomayor, calling her "Miss Affirmative Action 2009" and a racist, he neglected to also include in his article on the Human Events website that he has his own racist pals, such as prominent white nationalist Peter Brimelow, who will speak at the upcoming national conference of Buchanan’s immigrant-bashing organization The American Cause (TAC). According to a bulletin on its homepage, Vdare.com owner is now scheduled to speak at The American’s Cause’s “Building A New Majority Conference” in McLean, Va., on June 20. So, Pat Buchanan, don't we have a right to call you out on the people you associate yourself with? What a hypocrite. Why can't Pat Buchanan be reminded of his racist actions whenever he has the hubris to call another person a racist?

According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, "other speakers scheduled to appear at the upcoming conference, according to TAC’s website, include Hazleton, Pa., Mayor Lou Barletta, who has worked closely with the legal arm of the hate group Federation for American Immigration Reform to enact anti-immigrant policies in a region suffering from escalating racial tensions and where a Latino immigrant was beaten to death last summer; and former Congressman Tom Tancredo, a longtime nativist firebrand who earlier this year argued in a speech at American University that Latinos and Muslims represent “problem cultures,” and that immigrants who fail to “become American” by adopting “white Anglo-Saxon culture” are a destructive force in America."

Why Pat Buchanan is still on MSNBC is beyond me. The man is racist scum and does not deserve to be a guest on this cable channel or any other, except perhaps Fox News. He would fit in nicely there with all the right wing extremism that emanates from that channel, starting from the top -- Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes.

Buchanan’s history of bigoted statements, dating back to his days in the Nixon administration, was detailed in a comprehensive June 8 Media Matters for America post. In the 1970s, Buchanan warned Nixon not to “fritter away his present high support in the nation for an ill-advised governmental effort to forcibly integrate races.” In 1989, he defended Bob Jones University’s ban on interracial dating. And in 1990 he lamented the end of apartheid in South Africa.

And he’s still at it. Media Matters notes that Pat Buchanan appeared on the June 29, 2008, and September 14, 2006, editions of “The Political Cesspool,” a white nationalist radio show whose “Statement of Principles” asserts that it “represent[s] a philosophy that is pro-White.” Buchanan’s appearance on the show last June was streamed live on Stormfront.org, a major white nationalist online forum popular with neo-Nazis, skinheads and other hard-core racists. Buchanan’s recent books have been filled with citations of white nationalists’ works and advance racist arguments about Latino immigrants, such as that they enter the U.S. to invade it (more on Buchanan’s recent racism can be found here and here).

Again, why would MSNBC, whose philosophy seems contrary to anything spewed by Pat Buchanan have him on their airwaves, knowing that he consorts with racists and is a closet-racist himself? Pat Buchanan had the nerve to talk about President Obama's association with Rev. Jeremiah Wright, when he has a history of close interactions with known racists.
