He warned against political correctness. And he warned against the evils of the abortion industry, among other things.<\/p>\n<p>He wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t right about everything. But he was far more right than wrong, especially given the Bush family\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s long record of abject failure, especially given the Washington establishment\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s long record of abject failure.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"590\" height=\"332\" src=\"http:\/\/launch.newsinc.com\/?type=VideoPlayer\/Single&#038;widgetId=1&#038;trackingGroup=69016&#038;siteSection=polizette&#038;videoId=28940220\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\" noresize marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Moreover, he warned against going to war in Iraq and was proven tragically right. The heartbreak is that so many young lives have been ruined in what was a counterproductive and needless foreign adventure.<\/p>\n<p>Buchanan, who sought the Republican nomination in the \u00e2\u20ac\u212290s, gave a speech in Houston in 1992 that was full of predictions. He predicted the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153culture war for the soul of America,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d the intolerance for Christians and the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153with Bill you get Clinton and Clinton,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d meaning two for the price of one. We are seeing this now in the sense that Hillary Clinton may be the next president of the United States.<\/p>\n<p>At the time Buchanan was shamefully called \u00e2\u20ac\u0153xenophobic\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and an \u00e2\u20ac\u0153America Firster\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153protectionist.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Too bad. All for telling the truth. Politics ain\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t beanbag, but the vitriol the Bush clan and the corrupt establishment aimed at an honorable conservative who had the temerity to ask unpleasant questions of the elites was astonishing.<\/p>\n<p>Buchanan simply said we were a Republic and not an Empire. He was right then and even more right now.<\/p>\n<p>As much as the neocon-High Tory-Establishment Republicans hated Ronald Reagan \u00e2\u20ac\u201d such as those at the Ethics and Public Policy Center \u00e2\u20ac\u201d they hated Buchanan even more. He called the neocons\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 foreign policy \u00e2\u20ac\u0153compulsive interventionism\u00e2\u20ac\u009d even in the face of Washington warning against \u00e2\u20ac\u0153entangling alliances.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n<p>Iran and Iraq were two spiders, trapped together in a bottle  so intent on killing each other they had little time for anyone or anything else. But George W. Bush, for reasons unfathomable, reached into the bottle and pulled the spider named Saddam Hussein out, freeing Iran to focus on paying for and exporting terrorism.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>It took guts to run for president. It took courage to take on the Bush Machine.<\/strong>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He did not have WMDs and we knew so, despite the false protests of the Bush 43 administration and their sycophants. A CIA operative who was a station chief in the Middle East told me that several years earlier, Saddam\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s nephew had been captured. He was in charge of Iran\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s chemical weapons program except that Saddam had none, having used some of the Kurds while the rest had degraded into uselessness.<\/p>\n<p>In short, Bush and Co. sold America a pig in a poke and only a few courageous voices like Buchanan had the courage to say so&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Read more at <a
