Pat Buchanan: Bring Back Glass Steagall



Pat Buchanan is so far on the Right -- defending Nazi war criminal John Demjanjuk, for example -- that he sometimes touches, indecently, the American political left. Gross. On the Iraq war, for example, he and the McLaughlin Group's resident leftie Eleanor Clift were in synchronicity. This week, on the subject of Glass-Stegall, the two were also seeing eye-to-eye.

Buchanan proposed bringing back Glass-Stegall, repealed during the Clinton bubble. Eleanor replied, "any time Pat Buchanan says let's go back to the New Deal, I'm all for it."
