I think Buckley is conservative. He certainly thinks of himself as conservative, as does almost everyone else who knows who he is. You are certainly free to exclude in your mind Buckley and everyone else with libertarian leanings from your limited definition of what it means to be conservative. That's your prerogative. I'm not even going to argue with you about it because it would be a pointless exercise in futility.

"He certainly thinks of himself as conservative"

What??

That book I referenced was non-fiction. He calls himself a Libertarian. Right on the friggin' cover!

Geez, I feel like Alice in Wonderland ... in "1984".
