If that article is accurate, then William Buckley is to be condemned. And if the entire Buckley family are wealthy jack asses, then so be it. I suppose all I can claim, is William Buckley’s good inspiration to me, regardless of how he was personally.

He died of emphysema, and is quoted as saying he hoped government would ban tobacco. That is an absurd rejection of his entire life’s thinking. It is a rejection of personal responsibility unworthy of him.

It does not change the point of my post. If anything, it corroborates it. Great wealth is spiritually debilitating.

What a sad and disturbing article. Obviously the “predeceased” part is some legal lingo, but the sentiment stinks.

And as for Christopher, my goodness, and I suppose he thinks he’s got couth!
