William F Buckley died today
(stolen from a news story --- Bot)
"Mr. Buckley," one non-fan wrote in 1967, "you are the mouthpiece of that evil rabble that depends on fraud, perjury, dirty tricks, anything at all that suits their purposes. I would trust a snake before I would trust you or anybody you support." Responded Buckley: "What would you do if I supported the snake?" |

I read somewhere that Buckley was in the CIA at one time in his life. Did you know that?

If weed was legal I would burn one in his honor.
He was pro-potvocate. |

The dude could write, and speak. Not unlike with Carleton, I needed a dictionary close by most of the time.

Anyway, he worked for a year in Mexico for the CIA. He said it was extremely boring. Buckley was definitely a free thinker. I enjoyed/will enjoy reading his stuff.

I once read the story which recounted Buckley's successful attempt to steal his own boat from a marina where it was being held in a dispute over the cost of replacing the engine (I think). He cut through a fence in the dead of night and sailed it out. It's nice to see a fella whose defense of the rule of law doesn't stand in the way of the pursuit of his own interests.

No, I think the marina owner was a Democrat. So, it was okay, you see . . .

Kerry also failed to mention that the "story" came from WFB himself, apparently he was being ripped off.
