Strange Bedfellows: Pat Buchanan Defends Putin
by AL MARTIN

Why is perennial losing candidate for US President, Pat Buchanan, apologizing for Putin?

The conservative Pat Buchanan is being uncommonly liberal with his pal Vlad Putin, in defending him in the murder of Alexander Litvinenko, the former Russian security service operative.

Is Pat Buchanan really naive, or just pretending? Or is Pat simply trying to protect his syndication fee for the English-language edition of Pravda, which carries his columns? Only Pat knows...

“Is Putin being set up?” is the name of Pat Buchanan’s article from November 27, 2006. He writes: “Whoever poisoned Alexander Litvinenko had two goals – a long and lingering death for the KGB defector, and pointing a finger of accusation for his killing right in the face of Vladimir Putin, which leads me to believe Putin had nothing to do with it.”

Pat’s right about one thing. It does point the finger of accusation at Putin, where it justifiably belongs, since Russia is the only country on earth that still produces Polonium 210.

And there's also Anna Politkovskaya.

I think Pat Buchanan is a double agent.

Sadly, over the years, Buchanan seems to have evolved into somebody whose shorts tighten for just about any tyrant or throwback strongman out there.
