Buckley's Still Right

Delicious quote here:

Conservatives in this country — at least those who have not made their peace with the New Deal, and there is serious question whether there are others — are non-licensed nonconformists; and this is dangerous business in a Liberal world, as every editor of this magazine can readily show by pointing to his scars. Radical conservatives in this country have an interesting time of it, for when they are not being suppressed or mutilated by the Liberals, they are being ignored or humiliated by a great many of those of the well-fed Right, whose ignorance and amorality have never been exaggerated for the same reason that one cannot exaggerate infinity

Bill wrote that in 1955.  Nothing's changed since, has it?

We are all playing the world's smallest violin for radical conservatives these days, dad. "Martyr" looks good on you.

Good old Bill supported actions besides words. Running for office is sage advice. Will Dad29 heed it?

I see that RoJo's asskisser is still trolling.

You ought to know, Dad29. You were all over RoJo like white on rice, then threw him under the bus. Doesn't matter, you'll still vote for him and for Republicans in the future. Yeah, we know, "lesser of two evils". That doesn't cut it anymore. For heaven's sake, quit the drama and announce your bid for office as a TRUE conservative. That is the only way this country can possibly move forward. Do Patrick Henry proud!

Somebody ought to give Anony 10:19 the second half of that famous Patrick Henry quote.

"The Bible is worth all the other books which have ever been printed."--Patrick Henry

Why, thanks deranged anony 1:58 a.m. Where can I pick up the good book that you promise to give me? Is it a signed copy by the pope? That would be neat.

Patrick Henry wouldn't be proud, but Patrick McIlheran would!

How about I give you my HIV-infected penis up your ass bareback instead?

You will have to go to Washington D.C., deranged anony 1:26 a.m., to find Patrick McIlheran. Except, he is married, so he would be uninterested in your request.
