I don't think anyone on pen-l believes Buchanan. He's just picking up on
something the left has said for a long time, i.e., that unbridled
capitalism is bad for kinder-k�che-kirche, the ideals of social
conservatism. There, I've done something that I trashed Wojtek for doing
awhile back, i.e., comparing a contemporary politician to the Nazis (with
the KKK slogan). But in Buchanan's case, it sorta fits. His father was the
type who had strong sympathies for the Nazis. This seems to have helped
produce B's own fascoid politics, complete with a strong streak of
opportunistic populism. 

in pen-l solidarity,
