Pat BuchananIf the Europeans want to intervene, that's their business. But if I were president, I would remove every United States soldier from the Balkan peninsula.
Pat BuchananAs polarized as we have been, we Americans are locked in a cultural war for the soul of our country.
Pat BuchananAs for a climactic conflict between a once-Christian West and an Islamic world that is growing in numbers and advancing inexorably into Europe for the third time in 14 centuries, on this one, Breivik may be right.
Pat BuchananMany teachers of the Sixties generation said "We will steal your children", and they did. A significant part of America has converted to the ideas of the 1960s - hedonism, self-indulgence and consumerism. For half of all Americans today, the Woodstock culture of the Sixties is the culture they grew up with - their traditional culture. For them, Judeo-Christian culture is outside the mainstream now. The counter-culture has become the dominant culture, and the former culture a dissident culture - something that is far out, and 'extreme'.
Pat BuchananWe need to do more than win an election or win the House or win the presidency, my friends: we need to make this beloved country of ours God's country once again.
Pat BuchananBy threatening war against Iran, Iraq and North Korea in his now-famous "Axis of Evil" address, the president painted himself into a corner. Either Bush now goes to war against one of these regimes, or he will be humiliated and exposed as a bellicose bluff.
Pat BuchananThe real liberators of American women were not the feminist noise-makers, they were the automobile, the supermarket, the shopping center, the dishwasher, the washer-dryer, the freezer.

Pat Buchanan[The courts and the media elite] are abolishing America, they are deconstructing our country ... they have dethroned our God.
Pat BuchananNo true Christian can carry within his heart hatred for any of God's children . . . I am as aware as any other Christian that our Savior was Jewish, His mother was Jewish. The Apostles were Jewish. The first martyrs were Jewish...So no true Christian, in my judgment, can be an anti-Semite.
Pat BuchananThere is nothing wrong with us sitting down and arguing that issue, that we are a European country.
Pat BuchananFree trade is the serial killer of American manufacturing and the Trojan Horse of world government. It is the primrose path to the loss of economic independence and national sovereignty. Free trade is a bright, shining lie.
Pat BuchananWhat America first means is we put the national interests of the United States and the well-being of our own country and our own people first. Our foreign policy, first and foremost, should be focused on the defense of American freedom, security and rights.
Pat BuchananAnd how can we ever again succeed in educating children to become moral men and women if, in America's public schools, we consciously deny them all religious instruction, and deny them access to that primary source of morality, God's own word. The Bible is the one book from which they are expressly not allowed to be taught.
Pat BuchananThere has been sort of, if you will, a moral interventionism on the part of the United States trying to reshape countries in our own image. Now, we had to go into Afghanistan. We didn't have to go into Iraq. But the idea that you could create a Vermont in the Middle East like that was naive from the beginning.
Pat BuchananWho would benefit from a war of civilizations between the West and Islam? Answer: one nation, one leader, one party. Israel, Sharon, Likud.
Pat BuchananI know the power of the Israeli lobby and the other lobbies, but we need a foreign policy that puts our own country first.
Pat BuchananOn immigration policy, I believe we ought to call an immediate halt, stop illegal immigration and reduce legal immigration back to about 250,000 to 300,000, to more easily assimilate the Americans who've come here in the last 30 years.
Pat BuchananIf the sexual revolution has been a medical disaster, socially it has been a catastrophe. Why do the media not report and explore the tragic results of the sexual revolution? Because many are collaborators.
Pat BuchananLike all idolatries, democratism substitutes a false god for the real, a love of process for a love of country.
Pat BuchananWith 80,000 dead of AIDS, our promiscuous homosexuals appear literally hell-bent on Satanism and suicide.
Pat BuchananIf we do not get control of our borders, by 2050 Americans of European descent will be a minority in the nation their ancestors created and built.
Pat BuchananIf we had to take a million immigrants in, say Zulus, next year, or Englishmen, and put them up in Virginia, what group would be easier to assimilate and would cause less problems for the people of Virginia?
Pat BuchananIf America does not wish to end her days in the same nursing home as Britannia she had best end this geo-babble about new world orders. Our war, the Cold War, is over. It is time for America to come home.
Pat BuchananThe poor homosexuals -- they have declared war upon nature, and now nature is extracting an awful retribution (AIDS).
Pat BuchananWhat's the Christian-bashing all about? Simple- a struggle for the soul of America is under way, a struggle to determine whose views, values, beliefs and standards will serve as the basis of law.
Pat BuchananWe are thus in the position of having to borrow from Europe to defend Europe, of having to borrow from China and Japan to defend Chinese and Japanese access to Gulf oil, and of having to borrow from Arab emirs, sultans and monarchs to make Iraq safe for democracy. We borrow from the nations we defend so that we may continue to defend them. To question this is an unpardonable heresy called 'isolationism.'
Pat BuchananThe question we Americans need to address, before it is answered for us, is: Does this First World nation wish to become a Third World country? Because that is our destiny if we do not build a sea wall against the waves of immigration rolling over our shores...Who speaks for the Euro-Americans, who founded the USA?...Is it not time to take back America?
Pat BuchananChristian morality, laws rooted in the secular humanist belief that all consensual sexual acts are morally equal. That belief is anti-biblical and amoral; to codify it into law is to codify a lie.
Pat BuchananI've just come back from Mississippi and over there when you talk about the West Bank they think you mean Arkansas.
Pat BuchananI've gotten balanced coverage and broad coverage - all we could have asked. ... For heaven sakes, we kid about the liberal media, but every republican on earth does that.
Pat BuchananOur culture is superior. Our culture is superior because our religion is Christianity and that is the truth that makes men free.
Pat BuchananThere is a simplicity that exists on the far side of complexity, and there is a communication of sentiment and attitude not to be discovered by careful exegesis of a text.
