Buchanan is Bat Shit Fucking Crazy, Get Him Off the Air!

I'm listening to Pat Buchanan's totally batshit crazy theory about WWII.  The problem, according to this complete lunatic, and this problem led to WWII, was that Churchill Britain had signed a treaty to protect Poland.  If the Allies had simply let Hilter and Stalin have Poland, the world would be so much better today!  That's clear to everyone.

Look, the real problem in America today is we have people who repeatedly say idiotic things, like Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Wolf Blitzer, Sean Hannity, and then the corporations let them BACK on the air.  America will continue to be in the shitter until this is fixed.  Free politics is a feedback loop.  Americans learn things from the media.  Even if 25% of Americans get their news from somewhere other than the TV news, they are the minority, and can not swing an election.  Americans are mentally lazy.  Now, it is possible that Americans could all start reading everything they could on politics, and turn away from these TV and Radio idiots, but the idiots will be fired soon after. So, their presence is a lagging indicator of American political health, it is not a long lagging one.

UPDATE: I realize this reminds me a little of Chomsky's discussion of Milosevic.  He says that the ethnic cleansing didn't really get started until the war began.  He also points out, correctly, that the Western media was full of accounts of Serb attacks before the war, but basically ignored any violence against the Serbs that was going on.  Since Kristallnacht (9-10 Sep 1938) when 25-30 thousand Jews were sent to concentration camps, happened before the invasion of Poland (1 Sep 1939), it looks like Buchanan, as I said, is a batshit crazy loonybird. Apparently Herman Goring even said, soon after Kirstalnacht, "The Jewish problem will reach its solution if, in any time soon, we will be drawn into war beyond our border—then it is obvious that we will have to manage a final account with the Jews."
