Researching something else, I discovered this exchange between Buckley and Hitchens and CIA/FBI intrusion into American's lives.

I haven't heard the entire series, but the part about the FBI and CIA got my attention, and I decided to post it.

Excellent Video.

Buckley destroys Hitchens every argument.

If only we had a Buckley today...Rush fancies himself somewhat of a Buckley, however Rush very rarely goes one on one with a popular liberal.

Buckley was adept at pointing out the fallacies of liberalism, making his opponents foolish. He was naturally comfortable with conservatism, as we all should be, when opposing liberalism. There is no need for us to defend conservatism, but merely know and state the facts.

Buckley spoke English, and to quote Rex Harrison in "My Fair Lady";

"Why, in America, they haven't spoken it in YEEErs"
