: MediaTakeOut.com has learned that last night during MSNBC's show Live With Dan Abrahms, conservative commentator Pat Buchanan blew up on African American commentator Kelli Goff as she tried to point out the Clinton camp's race-baiting.
What's most startling is not only that he told a woman to SHUT UP on the air - it's that, as fellow commentator Rachel Maddow pointed out, he's been in numerous heated discussions with White commentators (most notably on NBC's McLaughlin Group) and he's never told any of them to shut up.
Here's video of the exchange:
BTW, if you feel outrages by Pat Buchanan's comments and want FIRED from MSNBC, here are a few people whose email and voicemails should be blown up:

I saw this when it happened live and I was fúcking stunned!! Pat Buchanan has always been a racist príck! He probably doesn't see black people until he is about to go on TV. I wonder if a black man on TV would have defended Kelli Goff the way Rachael Maddow did.

daaaamn! u can tell when someone is really getting *** down, b/c the only thing he could come up with to stop her from spitting out facts about obama was *** UP!!! LMAO! he should be totally ashamed of himself, but folks like him have no conscience and he probably doesn't think he did anything wrong...racist ***! wf need to realize & recognize it's a new day for america, the old ways and rationale of the good ole boys is SLOWLY, but surely dying out! obama '08 ;)
i hate to be the one to say this but...she was blathering off at the lip so much that she started to become unintelligible AND she was cutting him off...im absolutely not saying that he should have told her to ***, but she needed to tell herself that. PS she needed to fix her hair standing up like alfalfa before she came on tv
Yall love calling somebody racist. I do agree that alot of African Americans and White are gonna vote for him only because the don't like the Clinton's and they think well we have never had a black President.
How many people know people who have said It's time ot get one o our kind in the White house. You people have no clue about Obama except what you have heard of the new or saw on his site to win you over. I
It is time for us to wake up. I agree that Pat stepped out of line but as a black woman I have felt like that a load of times hearing ignorant people tell me why Obama is a decent candidate, He is a scam artist. You people are so dumb that you would vote for a man you never heard of until this election whose name just happens to rhyme the reasons we are headed into a New World Order in the first place. You would choose Barack Hussaein Obama in the middle of war.

The woman held her own and they all got their point across. It is rude to tell someone to *** up. And she did cut him off. She does have a point. Black folks were not all ready to vote for Obama until they new more about him. It is a plus that he is black, but not at the expense of the country. And Buchanan can not compare the privilages of George W. to Obama. George Bush has not been successful at anything in his life. He failed at school, in oil, is baseball team and, most notably, the presidency.
LoL @ taetae what do we know about any canidate except what they lie and say in order to get elected? All politicians are scam artist and HELL 2 THE YEA we want a black in the white house why *** we and ask yourself this would Hillary be in the position she is in if she wasn't bills faithful wife DOUBT IT!{also WTF does his name have to wit anything none are so blind as those who WILL NOT see}
Saying "*** up" in any forum is using poor taste. She should not have interrupted him, since he allowed her to finish her thoughts. Pat Buchanan could have handled it much better and waited for the Dan Abrams to stop her. Keep in mind the white woman did not interrupt him, and was very quick to point out that he had never done that before and was dead wrong.
wow@taetaebabylove I am really ofended that you think we have not heard of Obama before this Democratic Primary. Thats a prejudice statement in itself. You are assuming and making a real a** out of yourself! The term "you people" leaves me feeling equally uneasy as well. You don't know everybody here and you can't just make a statement and apply it to everyone just because you were ignorant and didn't know anything about Obama before this primary.
Now I feel abandoned cuz Pat Buchanan says I'm greedy, You can take my taxes, send me to war, but cant feed me. ----2pac, The Good Die Young (Still I Rise CD, 1999)

You see, this is what happens when the White Mans sense of entitlement shows it's ugly face.
Pat Buchanan (from the South, of course, where else would he be from?) was being outwitted, out-argued and every point this young lady was making was obliterating his old-[EXPLETIVE] view of Obama. What's even more classy about this educated BLACK WOMAN is that she kept her cool and decorum even as this old deep-fried Southern *** lost his.
I called EVERY NUMBER on the list and demanded this man be reprimanded and fired. I suggest you all do the same.
Listen up, the white man (especially the white man from down south and I think we know) has the expectation of superiority and he flaunts it everyday.
The only credit I give Pat Buchanan's racist *** is that he doesn't hide it one iota, you know he's got some *** and a hat in his closet. And to think that arsehole actually ran for President...
Pat Buchanon is a racist, but not for his comment on msnbc. People have *** attention spans and forgot about the garbage he was spitting out when he had his campaign to be president.
This is the new racism in America. This is the same trash White people were saying about affirmative action and saying black people had some unfair advantage. And in typical fashion Ms. Ferraro turned it around and tried to make herself out to be the victim aka "reverse racism"
give me a *** break
Thank you, BrutallyHonest. If anyone knows Pat Buchanan's history, then you can question why he would tell her to *** up. Of course saying *** up is not the same as being racist. The woman handled herself like a lady. Like I said before, the nature of these shows is to debate and sometimes people overlap. It's not that serious to tell some one to *** up. May be someone can say *** up as a joke, but only as a joke.
Hey IceQueen, ever heard of "pardon me" or "if I may speak"?
The old deep-fried southern *** is and has always been a racist and couldn't take an EDUCATED BLACK WOMAN destroying every point is crankedy old *** was trying to make.
This isn't about bad manners because he doesn't seem to have bad manners when talking to other whites.
You go ahead and be blind if you want, I'm not looking for racism behind every rock. I'll be the first to tell you Michael Vick's stupid *** jammed himself up, not the white man. This was a textbook case of old-[EXPLETIVE] Southern white boy entitlement, meaning the negras, especially the women negras, be quiet while the big bad white man speaks.
Don't be clueless honey...
Everybody always want someone fired for every little thing. Fools make mistakes and Pat Buchanan is a FOOL. Fired, no.
Bill O'Reilly use to scream his head off at Arthel Neville and it would make me so mad. He's calmed down a lot now but I love to see Geraldo Rivera taking him on. Geraldo screams and points fingers at O'Reilly.
I wouldn't call what geraldine said as racist. Silly maybe but not racist. Silly for the main fact that Black people only make up about 25% of the American population so if was about race he would have been out of contention not in it as deep as he is now.
What Geraldine really needs to put the blame is in Hillary's camp for not taking Barack serious.
And as far as Mr. Pat is concerned, he's probably so frustrated to even have to speak with this black woman he couldn't contain himself.
We're going to see a lot of mud slinging before this is over. I think a lot of conservatives did not think Barack would really last this long.
Let me tell you all a little something about Pat Buchanan, he's a typical old white man from the South that's been allowed to walk over blacks by not only the white establishment, but the black establishment down south as well.
He's like every other deep-fried [EXPLETIVE]
He likes his neck red He likes his flag confederate and he likes his negroes....quiet
first of all, race should not even be a factor, he should five the WOMAN the courtesy she deserved, it dosent if the person was male or female, black white, pink, purple or polka dot, it is extremely rude to tell ANY PERSON to *** while they are talking, now if that were the president would he have said *** up???? i think not, HE NEEDS TO BE FIRED!!!!! IM CALLING AND SENDING EMAILS TODAY!!!!! LETS RISE UP AS A PEOPLE AND DO WHAT IS RIGHT!!!!!!!!!
@ TAETAEBABYLOVE: U SOUND REAL STUPID LIKE U WAS DROP AS AA CHILD. DID YO MOM RIDE ROLLER COASTER WHEN SHE WAS PREG WITH U?

WHEN HE DO WE JUST LIKE CRABS PULLIN HIM DOWN SAYING HE A CON ARTIST. *** SHUT UP AND GET SOME FACTS AND READ A BOOK. AND STOP BEING THE WHITE MAN DEFENDER AND THE BLACK MAN PROSECUTER DAMNNN!
SAY SOMETHING, WHAT!
I don't think he is racist for telling Kelli to *** up, but I do think he is a racist for everything other thing he said during this interview. He basically said that Barack is where he is because he is black, what the f*ck. Who would of ever thought that statement would be used to desribe a black man. The world is changing and this election will expose all the racists.
black people are just ridiculous sometimes, always gettin offended at everylittle thing. Maybe he said *** up because she woudln't let him speak and just kept blabbin incoherently fast. might not have been the most professional thing to do but dont make it out to be a white vs black thing. MTO never gives a story where a black person is being racist (happens all the time in real life, maybe not on tv)and tells people to do better and improve themselves. all u can do is spread hate.
this isnt bad---- she should have fired right back at him... Although the other girl checked Pat.
PAt will almost always eventually dodge a straight question and put his foot in his mouth.
Besides, Barack wasnt gettin almost all of the black vote until after the SC primary. Where was that black vote in NH, IA, ND, SD --- and he won anyway!
Way to go B.O.!!!!!
Typical white man. What's new? In his era he was used to when he says *** up and people would obey.
He'll never stop being that way until he dies, back in the days he probably would've slapped her and got away with it. He has to feel like he's not losing an ounce of power. They've worked so hard to paint an image of us to the world, that to admit Obama is winning fair and square will give his kind a stroke.
The sister let him have though.
I don't see how this is racist, he's just playing politics. But Pat hasn't nor will he be fully-pro-Obama. Pat is from the old school and old ways of doing things. I believe he's more afraid that Obama will use some of the same methods that Regan (whom Pat did work for) used by attracting Independents, Republicans, and Demos a like. He only wants to protect his Regan legacy and have it not be forgotten.
I saw this live also on wednesday... ALL OF US ON THIS POST SHOULD SEND EMAILS TO THE ADDRESSES ABOVE (I KNOW I"M AM RIGHT NOW). DON;T JUST TALK ABOUT IT BE ABOUT IT!!!
PAT BUCCANAN IS A BITTER SOUR REJECT FROM THE REPUBLICCAN PARTY. HE IS UPSET BECAUSE HIS RUN FOR THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION FOR PRESIDENT WAS LAUGHED AT BY HIS PEERS SEVERAL YEARS AGO...SINCE THEN HE HAS LEFT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND NOW CONSIDERS HIMSELF A MEMBER OF THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY (THERE IS A DIFFERENCE). LIKE ALL RACIST, WHEN SOMEONE HURTS YOU, LOOK FOR THE NEAREST BLACK PERSON TO ATTACK.
CLASSIC WHITE RACIST!!!!
@TAETAE WHAT EVA
HOW THE HELL YOU GONNA TRY TO EVEN SOUND LIKE YOU HAVE SOME INTELLIGENCE WITH A NAME CALLED TAETAEBABY FIRST OF ALL. YOU IGNORANT WELFARE RECIPIENT. WHAT FACTS CAN YOU POST ABOUT OBAMA BEING A SCAM ARTIST, LET ME GUESS NONE. WHAT ABOUT HILLARY ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS NAFTA, READ A BOOK AND SIT YO AS DOWN SOMEWHERE, U UNCLE TOM *** ***
The thing to understand here is that the truth will always come out. Pat Buchanon said exactly what he wanted to say because he was not going to allow some black woman to go toe to toe with him and he showed his true colors. Make no mistake about it he intended to show disrespect and he should not apologize for it. He should stand behind his own words and defend his beliefs. I have always suspected that he was a conservative White racist male and now I know that he is. To tell anyone on a national television show to *** up is rude and classless. But to do it to the black woman and then have the White woman tell him that he has never done that to her again speaks volumes regarding his intent. For all of you black people that think racism is a thing of the past better wake the frig up because it only gets worse the more it appears that Obama will win the Democratic nomination for president.
@ ivehadenuffofyall
I do believe that she had the floor and he was trying the interupt her but she wasn't haven't it! He had his time to speak and then she had hers but he couldn't stand for her to get out the truth! You see his explaination did not make sense, and just by having common sense you can figure out that blacks are a minority in American, the second largest ethnic group next to white people but Hispancis are gaining on us quickly...any way there is no way that Barack is getting only black votes and going as far as he have. All kinds of Americans are voting for Barack don't let the media and Clinton camp fool you. And stop trying to imply that black women get mouthy because we will stand to our opinons intelligently and fiercely the same thing could be said for Hillary look how she is running off at the mouth...but guess its ok on a white woman? We need to stop all this racists and sexist *** whether some of you like it or not Barack is going to bring this country together.
@ taetaebabylove you sound silly! BARACK VOTED AGAINST THE WAR AND NOT EVEN HILLARY OR MCCAIN CAN CLAIM THAT. I see you have fallen for the foolishness that is the Clinton campaign...Hillary is throwing a hissy fit because she didn't want to bow out and take VP spot...her problem is she don't know her role in this race because it is clear she cannot win the nomination.
I hope that Obama picks Senator Edwards for his running mate, I think that is the best ticket.
At first I was all for Hillary and Bill back in the white house too but they lost me once I researched Barack and that is how you get to know him....tell me what other pres had you heard of before they ran for president except for maybe Jesse Jackson and Al ***? Not many...Bill was from Arkansas...never heard of him until he ran for president
Oh that annoys me.. However, I don't think he needs to be terminated for telling her to "*** up." He realizes it was childish and it truly displayed his lack of intelligence. Simply put he couldn't handle her nor did he have any logical explanation for her statements. I wish they were in the same room when he pulled that *** move. He would have been picking his dentures up off the floor. LOL Also she handled herself well. So glad she didn't scoop to his level on camera. I'm sure she got in his SH!T, once those cameras were off.
