Legacy: Just days after the Conservative Political Action Conference wrapped up, the nation lost one of the conservative movement's founders and one of its most passionate defenders — M. Stanton Evans.

M. Stanton Evans newspaper “Human Events” was part of my reading habit growing up. A grandmother gave me issues she has read.

I also heard his radio commentaries as part of the “Spectrum” series on CBS Radio in the 1970’s.

Liberals shared time in these features with the likes of Evans, Joe Sobran, James J. Kilpatrick and Phyllis Schlafly.

He was one of the great “beltway conservatives” who supported Nixon firmly during the fight with the liberal media back then.

I'd become quite the fan of Stanton Evans the past 10 years. Blacklisted By History, and his recent Stalin's Secret Agents both taught me a great deal. Rest in peace.

Same here. Sorry to hear of Mr. Evans' passing. He wrote some great resources for conservatives. Valar Morghlis, I guess. RIP, Mr. Evans.

Sorry to hear this. I knew Stan. (I’m an NJC alum.) Brilliant, funny, witty, principled, conservative and a fine writer.

Many people may not know this, but the founding statement of Young Americans for Freedom, the “Sharon Statement”, was primarily written by Stan Evans.

Great Stan Evans quote: “Liberals don’t care what you do, as long as it’s compulsory.”

Great quote and so true.
