Just what kind of shoes did William F. Buckley wear? Since he presented himself as a sartorial gentleman, so I’m guessing at least Alden and maybe some bespoke English shoe.
As for WFB, he was pretty good in his early years (pre-1994) but later on became (perhaps due to advancing age and declining health) less astute and possibly even exploited by people who never cared for anything the conservatives believe in (which is, when you examine it carefully, exactly how NR is today!)
So, take your time and review the facts, once you do that you will certainly agree with me.
I generally agreed with him even in his later years. Yes, he veared off in a more libertarian direction, but he was still anything but a liberal.
