  • Social Engineering and Hypocrisy

    At least Buckley was not a hypocrite. He understood that social progress is based on the presence of a rational and educated majority.

  • Re: Buckley was the worst kind of bigot.

    ProudInfidel:No, liberals like the Clintons are the worst kind of bigots. You know the kind, they pretend to care about all the ''suffering'' of all minorities in ''racist America'' so they can exploit them for votes to gain power.

  • William F Buckly dead and I'm grateful

    Buckley.. the self-canonized anti-human Calvinist... firmly devout in his faith that there are the :chosen'' him of course and the rest of us. Just like devout Calvinist Reagan, he advocated an America based on ignoring the needs of the have-nots in favor of the haves. As Calvin dicvtated, the chosen have a covenant of wealth and their God ...
