I don't think so, Joe.
He's a Catholic with leanings toward a fascist state, but then that doesn't make him REMOTELY unique in the GOP.
He was targeted by the MASTERS of the GOP precisely for his objections to FREE TRADE.
Dig deeper into his history, his writings and the events surrounding the proclaimation by his fellows GOPers and you'll quickly see what his REAL crime was.
Hint...it wasn't his views of WWII, it was him challenging the idea that FREE TRADE was a good idea.
PB is a nationalist and the GOP is run by international banksters.
I have dug deeper into his writings.
The man has consistently defended people like John Demonjuk (sp), who were accused of being Nazi War Criminals, and has derided the attempts to bring the last few Nazi War criminals to justice as "going after the Hall Monitor at Auchwhiz"
Show me what he actually wrote on those subjects, would you?
Clearly you must have those quotes at your fingertips so it ought not be a problem to prove what you say about him, eh?
He praised Hitler in his review of John Toland's biography.
Again, show me the quotes. I doubt you read the originals quotes, and I suspect you are characterizing his writing based on what somebody else says about it.
Prove me wrong. Educate me.
He has consistantly made racially insensitive comments.
That he does.
I think he's somewhat racist. How racist? About as racist as most silver spoonfed GOP Insider White Males of his age.
Now, here's the thing, much like a broken clock being right twice a day, he does have some good points about Free Trade and Israel's undue influence in Congress.
Instead of character assassinating him, why not just comment on the issue he was talking about?
You're not being an intellectually honest player, here, lad, and I suspect you know it, too.
But the other stuff, the racist, homophobic, fascistic and religously whacky bullshit more than disqualified him. And if he didn't have a shitload of buddies in the Pundit corps, he'd never gotten away with it.
When (if) you ever want to honestly discuss this man, let me know.
Perhaps together, using his own quotes, we can both come to a better understanding of the complexity of his POVs.
