The "I won't be in the same room with one" brand of anti-semitism is indeed rare now, at least compared with, say, 1907. The kind that Buchanan and his ilk suffer from is the kind that thinks a Jew would be unable to put the interests of the United States ahead of the interests of Israel - which is an ironic thing for a Roman Catholic like Buchanan or Novak to believe. They don't feel any ongoing hostility towards Jews but they are quite suspicious of them.
