I am old enough and more to remember him. I have always believed in our Constitution and in those young years when I marched for equality, against the war in Vietnam, for Gays (actually you can laugh,...when i first got to college I thought Gay meant happy. I was so naive and had to learn) etc., I was kind of brainwashed into thinking that Conservative meant racist and to this day I have or had ass---- friends who hate the Republican Party for no good reason except being brainwashed and thinking they are better people for being “liberal” minded...🤮 Anyway I am chit chatting too much. I knew Buckley was a Conservative and I was not supposed to like Conservatives but my free thinking spirit loved him. I loved his erudite ways, his sentence structure everything, his brilliance and much more. Well the only thing and maybe I was wrong was that I thought he was a bit of a snob....Anyway bravo for his saying that about Harvard then, and now Buckley, as the saying goes, is rolling over in his grave.

Right on! Unfortunately people don't want to see this or admit this happening. Don't forget Black Rock who owns Pfizer or has a major interest in them

That certainly has an anti semetic ring to it.

I used to watch Buckley's TV show "Firing Line", where various well-known intellectuals of the day joined Buckley for debate and conversation. Chomsky was on his show, taking the position opposing the war in Vietnam, and Buckley became so heated that he threatened to punch Chomsky in the nose. His co-hosting of the commentary on Republican and Democrat national conventions in 1968 has been covered in the PBS documentary "Best of Enemies" and is fascinating to watch even today. There is nothing like the level of intellectual content today that was common on talk shows (particularly thinking of Steve Allen, Jack Paar, and Dick Cavett) of the 1960's. The guests were given the space to actually explain difficult concepts instead of vaguely humorous soundbites.

Amen Doc...Buckley was right on target when he said the first 2000 in the Manhattan phone book would be better than the faculty at Harvard as a governing body. Imagine how we feel in Canada having a communist waterboy who licks the boots of the crazy madman with the shiny sci-fi suit and the Elmer Fud speech impediment. You know who it is I'll bet. (Hint...not much hair). Yea, you got it! Was he not an economist trained at Harvard? Buckley gets 100% for his comments, WEF gets "0" AGAIN! ACEDEMIA HAS NEVER BEEN TOO BRIGHT ON PRACTICAL MATTERS LIKE FOOD, WATER, AIR TO BREATHE, ETC. Seems like they imagine a lot of things (all money makers for Liberals) but do not really have any valuable practical skills, other than killing millions of people at a time. Justin Don Quixote Trudeau is pursuing cow-farts...seriously, I jest not...I have another quiz for you Doc...how many cowfarts equals the emissions of a jet flight from Ottawa to Davos? One more Doc...how many bottles of wine from California would not be producing Co2 during the fermentation process in the nice barrels and vats if we outlawed the process that produces 17 bottles of co2 to make one bottle of tasty vino, (savoured at the Davos meetings), and enjoyed by the "elite". Just one more Doc, c'mon, it's still early...which co2 producing wine is best enjoyed with Trudeau's new menu for Canadians...does bugs go good with Merlo, or perhaps something fruitier is in order? Merry Christmas Doc, I hope you get your wish for Christmas, (I think it is the same as mine!). Well, maybe our wish will come true...Jesus is coming soon to burn the arrogant bastards for their impunity. The Bible says pay no heed to the philosophy of men. Doc...does that not imply that doctors of philosophy should not be listened to? Yes, we are onto something here...Buckley had it right. Maranatha!

AD of late has had some reasonable pronouncements about the craziness in the lower levels of the judiciary regarding one former president’s legal troubles
