White America is getting very angry. The below screed by Pat Buchanan has a great deal of substance to it, and is being picked up across New England and across the West and South.
Buchanan’s letter to Obama
by Vermont Woodchuck
There is a kernel of truth in this, about the size of Gibraltar.
Let us see if Obama has the stones to have a discussion of this nature.
BUCHANAN TO OBAMA
By Patrick J. Buchanan
Barack says we need to have a conversation about race in America. Fair enough. But this time, it has to be a two-way conversation. White America needs to be heard from, not just lectured to. This time, the Silent Majority needs to have its convictions, grievances and demands heard. And among them are these:
Phi Beta Iota: Patrick Buchanan is a great leader who represents a significant number of souls in America. His letter, however, is theatrical for ignoring the reality that both political parties represent the war economy and the Wall Street economy, the last two rigged crap games in America. There is no leader now in America–not a single one–willing to do what the Coffee Party is calling for: fact-based holistic policy in the public interest. There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be fixed through Electoral Reform and the dismissal of the two-party tyranny.
