In 1968, Buckley debated Gore Vidal. Here's the most famous part of that debate:

BUCKLEY: No, I won’t. Some people were pro-Nazi and, and the answer is they were well treated by people who ostracized them. And I’m for ostracizing people who egg on other people to shoot American Marines and American soldiers. I know you don’t care—

VIDAL (loftily): As far as I’m concerned, the only pro- or crypto-Nazi I can think of is yourself. Failing that—

SMITH: Let’s, let’s not call names—

VIDAL: Failing that, I can only say that—

BUCKLEY (snarling, teeth bared): Now listen, you queer, stop calling me a crypto-Nazi or I’ll sock you in your goddam face, and you’ll stay plastered—

Vidal was right about the Right, only he was about 50 years ahead of his time.

Yep, how did I miss that. Of course, it's the mayor who wants legal action and peace, not the lying murderous gang who are wrong.
You are nothing but an ignorant troll.

I won't insult your miniscule intelligence by pretending you believe the stupidity you just wrote....to paraphrase William F Buckley

good one, bob. always good for dark humor.

i won't insult your intelligence by suggesting that you really believe what you just said. (borrowed that from bill buckley)

tho' bk, will match your morbid bit with this...

...the candles, dad's hat, dim lighting? gives off a memorial vibe. like the big screen will be used to show the father's life in pictures. he's talking from a funeral home, then saying the other party is politicizing the 90K deaths?

shameless.

Fun Fact :

John Lithgow is the off-camera voice for Gore Vidal


Kelsey Grammer is the off-camera voice for William Buckley Jr.

Corporal O’Neil of Troop 7 in Lewes, Del., reportedly did not request license or registration, never said why he was pulling him over until long after they were at the station, and repeatedly berated "you people" on the way to the station, telling Buckly "you're a piece of shit...go ahead and try the race card"
Buckley was not allowed to file an official complaint when he was released, in violation of more laws.

This is why police get shot in the face during traffic stops, and why some of them deserve it. There was zero reason to have him get out of the car, or to pull a deadly weapon.
I had the same treatment except the gun was to my head, and I was thrown to the concrete and jumped on, all while complying with commands, all because a dumb cop read my license plate wrong.

Fuck the police until criminal cops like this are all in a deep dark prison with no special protection.

Great speech by James Baldwin. Above is only about 1/2
Here is his whole speech, he starts at 14min



William F Buckley is the counter but indeed falls short.

I feel like I just drank a bottle of Buckley's...................

Jesus! Buckley didn't just smoke some weed, he apparently had to have ALL the weed.

excellent.
i always found buckley to be a condescending douche-nozzle but the man was brilliant.
he was an asshole but he was a brilliant asshole.

Check the exchange from 1:00 to 1:20. Buckley snarks, and Ginsburg has a hurt expression in his eyes, like he is ready to submit for just a brief second. But then Ginsburg sticks with it and you can see Buckley's attitude change until he's eventually won over. In the end Buckley is forced to formally concede. Victory: Ginsburg!

Never has the public discourse given so much airtime to a man with his head so far up his own ass since William F. Buckley.

Of course! They built Robocop!

Mr. Buckley said it best: Though liberals do a great deal of talking about hearing other points of view, it sometimes shocks them to learn that there are other points of view.
That's point of VIEW, not poo.
Apparently, Breitbart and I are both fans of Robocop 2.

Of course you'd side with OCP.
