If you are saying that WFB was a windbag, you have something of a point, IMO. I revere him for his role in modern conservatism and he is, apparently, a grand fellow in his more personal qualities. I tried to catch every broadcast of Firing Line back in the day. But I can not read the tortured, pointlessly obscure prose of our dear friend and saint.
Well, we must say that he has hobbed more nobs than most of those whose hobnobbing days are over.
He'll be a national treasure, at least.
