VIDEO- Pat Buchanan to Rev. Al Sharpton: “Don’t throw me into that briar patch… You’re boy, Barack Obama, caved in…”

Buchanan was also responsible for a quote made to the extreme right wing birther conspiracy blog World Net Daily in which he states:
"Mocked by The Wall Street Journal and Sen. John McCain as the little people of the Lord of the Rings books, the Tea Party "Hobbits" are indeed returning to Middle Earth-to nail the coonskin to the wall.".

Why does MSNBC continue to keep this man on their payroll. He's the same old racist Bircher and member of The Sons of the Confederacy, he was during the civil rights movement? Just because he's old and his ideas are so outdated shouldn't mean MSNBC should take him any less seriously than they would have taken any other member of their news team. Chris "Tweety Bird" Mathews drives me crazy when he lets this man say these kinds of things. Matthews literally just laughs at him and treats him like the joke that he is. So why does MSNBC continue to use him for commentary from the right? Buchanan is so old and set in his way of thinking he can just say whatever he wants.  And we'll all just laugh? - like Chris Matthews?  Apparently at MSNBC, if your name is Pat Buchanan you get a pass for horribly offensive remarks. Now if your name happens to be Keith Olbermann you get thrown off the air for not towing the company line.
