National Review died a long time ago.

Was Buckley against gay marriage?

It sure did. Seems there would be room for a conservative magazine these days but it would have to be way outside the cesspool that is dc.

Perhaps this quote from the article will give you a clue ...

“The founder of National Review — William F. Buckley, Jr. — grew up in Mexico, and saw first-hand the devastating effects of state assaults on religion. His first book, God and Man at Yale, was a sustained response to relativism and subjectivism — fallacies which Steorts accepts with a shrug as simple common sense. Buckley used his vast talents, charm and wisdom to create a journal of resistance. Will it now be surgically altered into an organ for collaborators?”

Steorts is an overeducated pseudo-intellectual homo.

Well folks, If the publications do not go along with the agenda, they get no more access to the ‘newsmakers’. Thus, insolvency.

This is yet another aspect of what electing lesser evil results in. Anyone starting to get the idea yet? It is not and never was simple Dem Vs. GOP. It’s about a shared agenda. The GOP died when Reagan left office. Learn that. Accept it. Because reality does not care for excuses.

Half their staff is probably queer, what do you expect.

You cannot be conservative and be in favor of same-sex marriage at the same time. Same-sex marriage is the very antithesis of conservatism.

The whole point of conservatism is to maintain traditions that have existed for thousands of years and have become so engrained in the contours of civilization that we have forgotten what it was like before they existed. Marriage epitomizes such a tradition and woe until the culture that has the hubris to think that such a tradition can be disregarded on a whim.

Rationalization doesn’t mean something is morally good.

Just because the left cna drum up reasons for their case, if they are arguing for an immoral thing, no amount of reasons can just make it right, or a good thing.

To wit, they rationalize abortion over a myriad of reasons. That doesn’t make it morally right or good.

I quit reading NR years ago. The eastie slant just got to be too much, and the guys who ran it after Buckley passed started being very condescending to the west. Their view of the tea party smacked of elitism, and they were never willing to give viable candidates who thought outside the box a real chance.

Nuts to them.

They should put Benedict Arnold on the masthead. Or Judas Iscariot.

I believe that NR was kept afloat for as many years as it was due to financial support from Buckley.

Buckley is gone. Ad revenues are most likely down.

They gotta get their filthy lucre somewhere.

And the gay movement is rather free with their ad spending...if you play along.

I would not know - as I stopped reading NR when WFB died ... Apparently, considering the present circumstance, it was the right decision.

Destroy marriage and destroy the family, destroy the family and you destroy civilization. Only then can individuality be destroyed and every person considered a citizen of father government whom they depend on and obey in exchange for their sustenance. All from the socialist party playbook.

You cannot claim reason, be a rational thinking adult, adhering to objective reality, and yet be convinced of any “equality” between sodomite faux “marriage” and marriage between man and woman.
