Didn't care for the guy.

Saw it, good news

**Burnt Bacon** · 02-27-2008, 08:31 AM

20 minutes to write a column is insane.

I didn't always agree with his views or what he said, but I always found him a fascinating read and enjoyed watching his speeches/commentaries.

**Clark** · 02-27-2008, 10:22 AM

he was great..there was a time when "conservatives" were not always coming off like zealots.
funny quote:
"During one of his most notable debates on ABC at the 1968 Democratic National Convention with (Gore) Vidal, Buckley responded to being called a ``crypto-Nazi'' by saying, ``Now, listen you queer, stop calling me a crypto-Nazi or I'll sock you in your goddamn face. And you'll stay plastered.''

Boyd Coddington passed today as well.

I didn't always agree with him but he sure was very intelligent and witty. He was also more flexible and open-minded than some of his critics give him credit for.

William Frank "Bill" Buckley, Jr. was a great American and will be missed. National Review kicks ass, been reading it for over 12 years now.

R.I.P. He was a good man.

**Quagmire** · 02-27-2008, 11:24 AM

Thats too bad. I really liked his cough syrup.

He meant it as well. He was a physical kind of guy and I think he was skilled in some type of martial arts or maybe was trained by the CIA when he was an agent.

R.I.P William

**2012** · 02-27-2008, 03:03 PM

**VeriSexy** · 02-27-2008, 03:21 PM

RIP to the man

**Mutt** · 02-27-2008, 03:46 PM

always admired that man - anybody with that mastery of the spoken language and wit no matter what their ideology is admire.

most people are complete stumblebums when speaking - it's getting worse too.

a life well lived - definitely lived a full one.

**LiveDose** · 02-27-2008, 03:52 PM

RIP. He made quite a name for himself.
