re: #148 Buck

Pat Buchanan is condemned FIRST for what he says, and writes…. his ties are the backup.

And anyone who tolerates his presence is connected with both … why is this not applicable between these two groups?

So, under this “doesn’t count” theory, two leading Republicans could conceivably found and for some period fund a new John Birch-type group, never denounce them, and that would be OK?
