The Buckley Rule might be worth something to Conservatives - if Buckley had been a Conservative.

"The Buckley Rule might be worth something to Conservatives - if Buckley had been a Conservative."

Clearly a top contender for the single most ignorant comment of the day and probably of the year on these forums.

Without WF Buckley and National Review, there would have been no conservative revival. Buckley is the father of the modern conservative movement and National Review, whatever it has become, was the primary vehicle for the expression of conservative ideals throughout the fifties, sixties, seventies and eighties.

Come back when you actually know something.
