Pat Buchanan should be kicked off the air permanently. They suspend Keith Olbermann for making a lousy campaign contribution, but they have no problem giving a pass to offensive remarks like these:

“Reverend Al, please don’t throw me into that briar patch.”

“Your boy, Barack Obama, caved in… “

“He’s your boy in the ring!”

Not once, but twice, Buchanan referred to President Obama as “boy”, and then laughed because, hey, that’s the way Republicans roll. He must be taking pointers from Rep. Doug Lamborn, who went for the tried and true “tar baby” reference.

There it is, folks, your GOP “big tent” party.  At this rate, I wouldn’t be surprised if the tent were made out of a white sheet.

ADDED- Next morning Pat tries to “clarify” this on Morning Joe.

    Right. That’s why he “apologized”. That’s why 99% of those who saw this were appalled. That’s why he chose to use words he knew were offensive (he is, after all, a veteran political commentator who knows exactly how he’ll be perceived). I guess we’re all imagining his well-documented racism because we’re oversensitive.

    Sigh.

    Come on, I’m no fan of Buchanan, but it’s pretty clear that he didn’t mean anything racial by that.

    Oh come on, look I would never defend Pat Buchanan, but it’s pretty clear that he didn’t mean anything racial by that. 

  • Khransome

    Racism is alive and well and doing fine in this country. It is primarily perpetuated by the republicans and the tea party. What a shame!!!!

  • Pvilakazi

    I thank you for caring.  There is a time when I was younger when I decided it would be very cruel to bring kids to this world because of  things that I saw being said and done to black people by people like these.   As I got older I got to realize that not all  human beings are actually human.  There is a segment of the human race that has no heart and no soul and  suffers from debilitating arrogance,  ignorance and a staunch belief in their absolute superiority over all of God’s creatures in this world.  So how do you reason with people like these and get them to understand that  their evil words and actions actually destroy people’s lives.  We do  exactly what you are suggesting.  We all (including people that look like them) speak out loud and clear against their evil.

    You know what ?  I’m sick of the white race disrespecting our President.  I know all who feels and talk all that bull has a major heart problem and mind.  Go on and take off those suits and put the hoods and white sheets back on!  I think you’ve forgotten to wear the correct attire.

  • Inez Jones

    I am really dissappointed by the comment made by Mr. Buchanan, about our President. Our President has not received the respect that he deserves yet, when will all this madness end, this is someone that we elected and the least that we as a people can do is give him the respect that is due him, just because he is the President of the United
    States.

  • Antionette L Robinson

    I guess that we all (NonRepublicans)should give thanks to our Africa Americas that consider themselves GOP’s.   Because of their choice of  political party as a GOP,I suppose  it make them feel like they are above the rest of the world.   Not to mention the  Senators that resigned on our President OBama during  one of the most needed moments, tucked their tails and ran like scoured dogs…now here the President stands almost along, whereas, those that resigned could be of extreme help .What happened  to the appointed Politicians that are suppose to represent us as the people, to create and develope jobs for us in the USA, and help protect our country, not as a Political group but working with the entire parties to up-hold the United States of America as the greatest country in the world.  Starting with the Congress that referred to our President as tar-baby, to this idoit referring to him as “boy.”  This is not the end of characters comparsions for the Presidents unless we as the people let the tea party no that rather all of us, or some of us, like or dislike the President, we stand behind as a whole because he deserves all of our respect as the P resident and as the leader of this country.

    GOOD for Pat……….when that colored boy  Rev Al has the  guts to apologize to the Duke Lacross players…. then Pat should apologize too.

    FAIR IS FAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Pat: “Yo boys” want to reep the benefits while the little people struggle. Take that raucous behavior elsewhere, coward.

    as i listened to Pat Buchanan, it`s a damn shame that this country in 2011
    is responding to the PRESIDENT like this
    Bush,Reagan and the the rest of the republicans did the same thing, and now that a BLACK man
    is in office , everything he does to make this a better country is wrong. People please
    grow up and let the MAN do his job and fire those who oppose him with the racial slurs

    This is getting to be too much…I am so tired of ‘them’ disrespecting THE President of United States of America…how dare ‘he’ refer to Our President as ‘your boy’…When will this stop…when?

    Boy? Really? That is a grown ass man with a wife and two children. Setting aside his position as President, he deserves the damn respect he is due as a MAN. I’m with Michael Evans from Good Times on this one…Boy is a White Racist Word. To me, when referring to a grown ass man as a Boy, you are in essence telling him you don’t respect him as a MAN.

    look up the word entitlement.  it’s a good and positive word, meaning exactly what we use it for.  i am, by definition of tax law, entitled to receive benefits from a program into which i paid for decades.  what we have to do is stop letting teapublicans take a perfectly useful word and turn it into something bad.  there are entitlements, and social security and medicare are two of them.  they are good.  the money that goes into them is, by definition, only allowed to be used to pay back out.  we agree on alot, if not everything, sally.  i just want folks to not let un or miseducated politicians and sheeple to turn a perfectly good and useful word into a bad word by misuse.

    What an asshold Buchanan is. No respect what so ever for the President or Black People in general. It just goes to show that hatred is still alive and burning.  I’m just happy that I love the Lord, because no longer can someone of Buchanan status fog my spritual being. Thank you Jesus for the person I’m today.

  • Queenbee000

    Mr. Griffin you must do what is morally correct here.  Keith Obermann was suspended for campaign contributions; but your station is letting the likes of Pat Buchanan start his racist ridicule and rants against the president of the united states because he is a black man.  To allow him to stay is not free speech at work, it is journalistic integrity thrown out the window.

  • Queenbee000

    msnbc should be held accountable for the rascist remarks that their commentators seem hell bound to utter whenever they discuss black people.  lets face it guys; this is the dialogue that routinely fall out of the mouths of racists when they are in each others company.  Now they have so little respect for the president that they are spouting this stuff in a public forum for the whole world to see and hear.  buchanan and snyone else that thinks its ok to be a televised racist should be fired.  and that ass of a congressman who referrred to President Obama has a tar baby should be impeached!

  • Bettycaron

    I wrote an e-mail to MSNBC  telling them how outraged I am and sick of Buchanan. He is so racist and ignorant, I don’t know why they keep him there. He belongs on Faux News where they would welcome his rhetoric.

  • Roslynn Moss

    NO, no that is too kind. Drop his BIGOTTY BUTT off in any minority community without body guards and play his many racist comments over a loud speakers with a sign saying ” Isaid it and what”. Now thats justice! 

  • Roslynnmoss

    I feel so sorry for those that don’t realize that CHANGE is inevitable, you cannot stop the browning of the USA. The bible states that the 1st shall be last and the last shall be first.

  • Roslynn Moss

    I my resent masters course on how American Gov. is run we are still function on the mistakes of the bush(lower case intended)era. Bigots will be exposed by GOD!!!!!!!!

  • Roslynn Moss

    Please FOOL!

  • Roslynn Moss

    He did a better job than I would have. They would have been forced to go off air.

  • Roslynn Moss

    If the African American, Hispanic American, Asian American, and Native American citizens don’t realize that there are still those that are calling us _iggers, wetbacks, chinks, and savages Buchannan let us know in no uncertain terms change, respect, and cooperation are not in their vocabulary.

    No need for racism to hide its ugly face behind a white sheet now.  Money green is a most effective disguise & concealer….

  • Tamara H. B

    I couldn’t agree more too!
