I hope this isn't old. I did a search for "Buchanan" and I did not get any relevant results.

Apparently the guy yelled "Stop the bigotry" when he tossed the salad dressing.
 
I was just about to post this from CNN:

KALAMAZOO, Michigan (AP) -- Commentator and former presidential candidate Pat Buchanan cut short an appearance after an opponent of his conservative views doused him with salad dressing.

"Stop the bigotry!" the demonstrator shouted as he hurled the liquid Thursday night during the program at Western Michigan University. The incident came just two days after another noted conservative, William Kristol, was struck by a pie during an appearance at a college in Indiana.

After he was hit, Buchanan cut short his question-and-answer session with the audience, saying, "Thank you all for coming, but I'm going to have to get my hair washed."

The demonstrator, identified by authorities as a 24-year-old student at Kalamazoo Valley Community College, was arrested and faces a misdemeanor charge of disturbing the peace. He was released on a $100 cash bond, pending his April 14 arraignment.

"He could have faced a felony assault charge, but Pat Buchanan decided to not press that charge," university spokesman Matt Kurz said.

At least Buchanan was pretty cool about it.

The headline shoulda read: "Pat Buchanan gets his salad tossed!"

That whole skit was on Comedy 150 last night as I was driving home! :lol


"Having yo' salad tossed means having yo' a$$hole eaten out with jelly or syrup....I prefer syrup!!"

but sir, that's so complicated...why not just oral sex?

"When a man's suckin' yo' d*ck, he can pretend it's something else. When he's eatin' a$$, he knows it's a$$!!"


:lol :lol :lol :lol

"Prayer in schools! We don't need prayer in schools! We need
the Tossed Salad Man in school. That will straighten the kids out.
'Hey Jimmy, you got a D, know what you have to do?' 'Noo! I don't
wanna toss the salad! I will read! I will learn to read!' "

These people are really doing their cause a lot of good by throwing food. Do you realize you guys would be up in arms if a Young Republican threw a pie at Alterman or any of his peers?

I think it's pretty much agreed that pie throws targetting bigots is perfectly acceptable. Is Alterman a bigot?

When did throwing pies become acceptable? I stopped doing shit like that in middle school. You may disagree with someone but what does pegging them with food do?

Out-debating someone: Smooth

Throwing food: Weak Sauce

If the person doesn't want to engage in reasonable debate...pegging them with food humbles them and shows them there is a dissenting opinion, something which these kinds of people often ignore.

Do you really think Neo-Cons are able to debate? They've never rationally explained their actions...

Wouldn't you agree that it's far better that these people get pied rather than Van Gogh'ed?

By most liberals definition, Pat Buchanon isn't a "Neo-Con" as he was distinctly against the war in Iraq.

Another conservative got "pied" while giving a speech at a college campus:
Activist hit by pie at Butler lecture

A conservative activist who criticizes what he calls the leftist domination of college campuses was struck with a pie Wednesday night at Butler University.

David Horowitz, president of the Center for the Study of Popular Culture, had just started a lecture at Butler when he was hit.

Horowitz's supporters followed the assailants out of the hall, and confronted them with what a witness called "pushing and shoving." However, the attackers got away.

"There's a wave of violence on college campuses, committed by what I'd call fascists opposing conservatives," Horowitz said. "It's one step from that to injury."

After the incident, Horowitz completed his lecture.

It was the second time in a week that a conservative lecturer was hit by a pie at an Indiana university. On March 30, William Kristol, editor of The Weekly Standard, was attacked during a speech at Earlham College in Richmond.

Butler spokesman Marc Allan called Wednesday's incident "deplorable."
