ahhh, who I am kidding I could give two shits about this ahole he was soooo great for this country. I mean who else was more instrumental in picking up this country by it’s boot straps? And getting this country to be the beloved country it has become globally? What other guy had more influence in the greed and hypocrisy shared by our finest leaders…
It was great to hear the dude from the NY Times writing his biography say on NPR tonight that Buckley never talked politics he only wrote them. He hated talking politics and rarely discussed them with friends. He was a great friend to so many people. Uh whatever man…
That seemed like an odd comment, but then not really the more I thought it over. The guy didn’t like to discuss politics with his friends or others because he didn’t want to debate. He didn’t want to be challenged. He felt he was right, didn’t want to hear, didn’t want to discuss it aloud, would rather just write books and make his point that way without someone telling him after each sentence where he is wrong. What a pompous jerk….RIP. Bush, Boehner and McCain are singing his praises. I needn’t anymore to know what a great human and asset he was for this country.
“I am profoundly saddened to hear of the passing of William F. Buckley Jr., and offer my deepest condolences to the Buckley family,” Sen. John McCain said in a statement Wednesday. “With Bill’s passing, freedom has lost one of its greatest defenders … an American giant who shall be missed.”
