      It's called 180 degree turn. Never mind that he was complainingabout her the whole time he's been asked about her.
      No substance. He needs to retire and shut up.

      Come on, people, why is this man given a national forum in which to spew his racism and hatred? Get him off the television. If it's not blacks and Hispanics, it's Jews that he's trashing. It's hate speech, plain and simple.

        Well, yeah. By Pat's standards, that should've disqualified her from being given any position of authority at all.

      Hey, when you see your career and employment going into the toilet because of what you really think, your only defense is "Hey, I am only playing devil's advocate" OK Pat, hang on to that thought (or excuse, if you will).

        Playing the devil's advocate is one thing. When the devil has you on retainer, Pat, it's something else entirely.

      Pat Buchanan has been playing a nice game for the past couple of weeks. He started off by talking about Sotoymayor as if she weren't qualified because she didn't really earn her degrees, she is a reverse rascist to the extreme, she is being appointed because of affirmative action, and she is less qualified than another white person. Now, a few weeks later with people breathing down his neck, well Pat is trying something new. Now he's on t.v looking calm and saying she should defend her comments and that she's a robot who is being fake. What he is doing is tryin to make everybody believe that she will just follow and not be a true judge like Roberts. Does anyone remember Roberts hearing , now that was joke.
