Abe Rosenthal on the anti-semitism of Pat Buchanan

There are few articles that are rarely as devastating as this one by the late NYT editor Abe Rosenthal. Despite its rhetoric of Religion of Love, Catholic right has had a pungent streak of anti-Semitism since forever. But nothing has ever brought down a more high-profile Western personality from civil life as this one. Pat Buchanan might still be writing, and appearing on TV, but it was this article by Abe that put paid to Buchanan's chances at Presidential run, and, perhaps, ended his political career, for good.
