Tell me about Christopher “Obama” Buckley’s child out of wedlock; I haven’t heard of this.

I’ll be happy to.

Christopher Buckley reportedly had an affair with a book publicist, Irina Woelfle. The child’s name is Jonathan.

According to the New York Post, before WFB died, he explicitly cut the child out of his will, saying, “I intentionally make no provision herein for said Jonathan, who for all purposes . . . shall be deemed to have predeceased me.” IOW - ‘that child is dead to me.’

What class! What a humanitarian! What a model of responsibility!

This, and the execrable Rich Lowry are why I have given up on NR as any sort of standard or arbiter of things conservative.
