Michael Johns on Buckley
March 14th, 2008
Michael Johns has one of the best memorials to the life of William F. Buckley I’ve seen in the blogosphere:
Even if one rejects every conservative idea that Buckley embraced and carefully and eloquently articulated in his six decades of public life–the importance of connectivity between God and democratic peoples, the correlation between free markets and economic growth, and the case for resisting and defeating (not merely containing) totalitarian threats–it was Buckley who recreated intellectual and political choice in America.
Like all that Michael writes, it is worth a read.
