Pat Buchanan Gets Doused as Demonstrator Says: “Stop the Bigotry!”
Pat Buchanan Gets Doused as Demonstrator Says: “Stop the Bigotry!”

Pat Buchanan most likely was not thinking about April Fools Day last night when “an opponent of his conservative views doused him with salad dressing.” And, it appears he is not the only conservative to be slammed recently with food.

“Stop the bigotry!” the demonstrator shouted as he hurled the liquid Thursday night during the program at Western Michigan University. The incident came just two days after another noted conservative, William Kristol, was struck by a pie during an appearance at a college in Indiana.

3. So you are so devoid of arguments...
...you have to resort to hurling things at people who are saying things you don't like?

If it was Hillary who had gotten this treatment, well, you can imagine the reaction.

But since its Pat Buchannan (or Bill Kristol, etc.), well...

:shrug:

Later,

8. No, but in addition to all the valid reasons Buchanon is wrong
on so many issues, it's just plain funny to see him with salad dressing on his head.

10. Agree Cicero
We should stand up against people who feel they have a right to keep others from speaking out. We need to be stressing the right to free speech. Not how we can shut people up who don't agree with us.

I would prosecute these people because I see this kind of sophomoric crap as an attack on all of our right to free speech.

4. I'm curious
Those attacks suggest that at least 3 young college aged students are very angry

What are they angry about?

Do they sense that this administration will make it impossible for blue-collar kids to go to 4-year colleges?

Are they angry about their lack of job prospects?

9. Watching Mclaughlin Group
Pat's wearing a clean shirt and tie.

Wonder if John, Eleonor, Larry or Tony will ask Pat about his dousing?
