Pat Buchanan: "Hitler Was an Individual of Great Courage"

Buchanan laughs about his support for white supremacist politician: "Now, where ever would anyone have gotten the idea that Harrold Carswell was a racist? Maybe from a speech Carswell gave at an American Legion gathering in which he said: "I believe that segregation of the races is proper ... and the only practical and correct way of life in our states. I yield to no man in the firm, vigorous belief in the principles of white supremacy and I shall always be so governed.

Yeah, that's probably it."...

..."Pat Buchanan is perhaps the best-known bigot in America. He called Martin Luther King Jr. 'one of the most divisive men in contemporary history.' He called Adolf Hitler 'an individual of great courage' and wrote a column questioning whether World War II was 'worth it' and wondered, 'Why destroy Hitler?' He defends a self-proclaimed white supremacist from charges of racism. Nearly every day, he demonstrates contempt for women and minorities.

MSNBC's continued employment of him says a lot about the cable channel."
