I always thought folk music people were a bunch of dirty Reds. That was until I came to Mudcat and read the politics and gun control debates.

You Mudcatters are my kind of people and I'm sure I can count on your support in November against the so-called conservative Bush and that pinko Gore.

Thank you so much for opening my eyes to the true Merican goodness of folk music people.

Your friend,

Patrick Buchannan

Merican?

I should learn to proofread. I meant to say "American."

Guest Buchanan, I saw you on television yesterday on C-Span. You looked rather uncertain of yourself after the news conference, as you wondered off stage and into the audience. I saw you shake hands with two people, both of whom were trying their damndest to avoid you. Of course, fear won out and they shook your hand (they were apparently afraid of retaliation if they didn't help you look good on camera).

A little advice for you: Come here often. Given time, we may soften your edges a little. If you start now, you may be a viable candidate by 2004. 'Merica needs good folkys runnin' things. You too could be one! Jim

Chuck - if Pat wants to donate, he can send a check to Max just like the rest of us. I'm not sure whether or not Max would be willing to accept it, or if it would be any good, but Pat can donate. Cash prefferred, of course, less traceable.

Well now Mr. B, you might be a Nixon lovin', Hitler admirin', protectionist kinda guy....but you sure know how to talk on the TV better than those other guys! I'm proposing a 3 way 'rasslin' "Texas death match" for the Presidency of yer country. That Al Gore fellow keeps tellin' us he's a country boy, but you'd whup him right quick. The "Dubya" fella could bring his prop electric chair into the ring, so you'd hafta blow him away with yer prop AK 47.

Geez now I know why my father used to like Adlai Stevenson.

I doubt it'll happen, but wouldn't there be some red faces in cyberspace if this was really a post from a slightly-right newbie whose name is spelled buchannan?

What an insult! Hey Buchanan, I AM A RED, I am the biggest plotter you had seen since Karl Marx, and I won't let you slander me like this - next time you'll have a trial, even in a bourgeois court... I accept that you can't spell, as you can't think, but if you cannot recongnize a *communist* anymore, you should give up.

Website is: well,you know what it is.I don't want to give the name up yet,as I want to see who's going to ask us what the hell we're talking about.

Elections are tough. I had been hoping Quayle would do better... but as you know, Deputy Dan.... has no friends.

Let's go over to the Tavern, and buy Buchannan a few. I understand the Cockteaser is back from Roosterama, just after a stint at the beautee parlor.

Then it'll surely be time to head over to the Center. I need to visit my ole paranoid SNAG pal, Nick Danger (Third Eye).

I did try to PHONE Nick, to see how he's doing, but unfortunately the dime was in Mr. Rococo's pocket.

And if we lived there, we'd be home by now!
